Unlike SE, however, they sticky all their important announcements or put their feedback in a different sub forum.
    i am not talking about well receiving at all.
    I am talking about stricter rules.
    Get a mod or 2 on the case that straight up closes every single thread that gets repeated and post a couple official ones instead.
    I don't care that is not the "western way" but this forum is currently a gigantic mess.

    It's not so much the "western way" to bash a game company incessantly on their own forums. There are plenty of forums for games and companies that are relatively positive or just boringly normal. "Putting out fires" is what community managers do and they take into consideration the consequences for doing certain actions. In the case of SE's English forums, posters are angry from a lack of response by the development team. Taking the kind of policing actions you are asking them to do would start more fires than put them out. It would look like SE issued a gag order on criticism of their game when blood is still running hot.

    I disagree, this forum is pretty typical of English speaking forums. The "Eye of Moron" is strong here.
