reasoning behind some threads being moved?

[Hikozaemon]

I notice anytime someone makes a thread on the "general discussion" section about a class etc... it ends up being moved. The reason some people are doing this is because it would appear that the class threads are completely ignored by the community reps because they are never replied too. So maybe you community reps should address this or tell the posters the reasoning. Dont think i have read a single response from a community rep. regarding peoples concerns of some classes or maybe they are holding out for battle system adjustments who the funk knows??

now ban me for making a logical post.

Class forums.

Discussions that involve global topics about a class that affect everyone else should remain in the general discussion forums. A topic about fixing marauders doesn't belong on the marauder's board, where there are as many marauders fanboys as there are cleveland browns fans who you honestly should not trust to describe their own teams' strengths and weaknesses objectively. You need the Gladiators' perspective, and the mages, and even the archers although they are not to be trusted.

The people capable of elucidating why marauder needs fixed are not found on the marauder board. It's the conjurer who would rather have a gladiator tank. It's the archer who kindof giggles when a marauder claims they can outdamage them. It's the thaumaturge that knows a marauder can't AoE its way out of a paper bag compared to them and its crowd control power.

The marauder board doesn't know any of these things. They're marauders. The general discussion board does.

Mmm. Such confidence.

yes i understand that some people have unfounded complaints as i am lvling marauder and find it pretty damn powerful and i dont miss all that much... but i was just gettin at why people keep posting on general discussion because they most likely feel as if they arnt being heard or they are just fishing for attention. Hopefully they can address some of this w/ the upcoming battle system updates.

90% of these forums take place in the General Forums. I'd personally like to see them move topics more often, so many good threads go ignored in other areas of these forums because nobody bothers to go there.

Class balancing issures are a global topic that affects everyone. If people have a marauder question sure it should go on the marauder board. If it's about marauder's relation to everyone else, it should go here where everyone can weigh in.

Moving a class balance topic to the class's board is effectively an intentional move to kill it.
With as stupid as archer and thauma are currently designed and balanced, it's probably best that the devs get some help in this department from everyone here. That can only happen if global balance topics stay in General Discussion.

Why even create separate forums? It's just the nature of forums that everyone congregates to the "General Discussion" area. Anything class related logically belongs in the class forums.

They need to rename the General Forums to Ul'Dah.
