As written, that means the forum is for feedback and suggestions on:
1. FINAL FANTASY XIV,
2. The Lodestone,
3. FINAL FANTASY XIV Forum,
and
4. other official websites concerning FINAL FANTASY XIV.

Now, yes, I realize that in actuality 1 and 2 were supposed to be combined into a single entity called "FINAL FANTASY XIV, The Lodestone". Some people (myself included) posted suggestions for changes to the game itself in this forum because we read the sticky and followed a perfectly legitimate interpretation of it. But again, this was before the second sticky - and the ambiguous first one remains....
#1 is pretty much how I interpreted this. That and I saw that posts with "[game suggestion]" were moved into this forum by a moderator. And I read:

"Feedback and Suggestions on the Game
This forum is dedicated to feedback and suggestions related to the FINAL FANTASY XIV official forums, The Lodestone and other official websites concerning FINAL FANTASY XIV.
If you wish to submit feedback or make suggestions about the game, please make a post in the appropriate forum.

Threads that contain feedback or suggestions about the game will be moved to the appropriate area.
Thank you for your understanding."

And I was looking for a game suggestions feedback forum. I did not read this as, "If you have a game suggestion for combat, post in the Battle forum", I've been waiting or looking for the game feedback and suggestions forum. But reading this, helps see another interpretation of the same content.
