the general forum should be shut down, it serves no game purpose.
110% Agree here.
As many people have loved to say....The Forums are a Place to Leave Feedback...which yes, of course, it is.
But its also odd that it feels like its being put into "General" instead of a More Appropriate Place where eyes for Feedback should go. General does not seem like the correct place to leave feedback for things such as Game Balance, addressing Bugs and Issues like the Famous Login Problems during Endwalker.

Maybe Im wrong and General is fine, or even the Appropriate place. But then with the lack of Moderation and dozens of threads, legit feedback gets lost in the Noise: trolling, in-fighting and stuff like that. And the Mods hardly ever come in to shut it down, so it becomes a terrible place to bring attention to issues in the game, or even just discussion in general.
Be gone with General, so people can actually leave feedback in Feedback Channels with Appropriate Feedback Threads.

Or for the love Jebus, get some real Moderation in here.
Maybe General would be completely fine, if rules were enforced with a Mod Presence.
