Speaking of threads that cover the same topic, an excellent post was made by Poppa. I've quoted it in one of my responses to [Dev 1024] Linkshell Administration Options but I'll also post it here and in the OP:

However, I do not think that SE has done a good enough job of listening to the players concerns about this issue. Below is a list of links to forums about linkshell management (or lack of) since March. I apologize if i have missed some but my eyes started to burn after awhile. But with this overwhelming number of posts and forums why isnt there a dev tag for linkshells?

If people so choose, they can visit all of the above threads and respond to them. This does raise an issue in regards to so many different threads covering the same subject. Some people agree with the topic but not how it's handled. I hope to alleviate that issue with this thread. Not only will I be incorporating what Poppa did into the OP, but I'll be doing the same thing myself and taking my own advice and responding meaningfully in those threads. I've already noticed players, in this very thread, supporting their claims with links to other posts. I think this is a good thing, but at the same time, it should be focused as well.

If you truly want this topic to survive I suggest posting in this thread and others as well. I don't think the Community Team is lazy, in fact I think they are very thorough in their deliberations. I'm sure these are being read. The only issue I have, and many others as well, is how it seems to be given less of an importance by the development team. It is abundantly clear that a simple command to kick members is much more important than, say, a /display head off command.
