    Regarding GM instructions to leave feedback on forums

    People keep posting about GM interactons on the localization forum because people are told to leave feedback about GMs on the forums but not being told the appropriate forum for it. They assume, probably correctly, that feedback should be left in some sort of "Feedback" forum, but they are posting, incorrectly, in the localization forum because the other options ("Website bugs" and "Website/Companion App Feedback & Suggestions") sound obviously wrong and they don't know what the localization forum is for (linguistic or typographical errors in the game text).

    Two things need to happen.
    1. A special GM Feedback subforum needs to be added to the Feedback forums.
    2. The GMs' interaction scripts need to be updated to specify which forum people should leave their GM feedback on so we stop cluttering the Localization forum with GM feedback threads.

    If for some reason a GM feedback subforum is not deemed necessary, the GMs' interaction scripts still need to be updated to tell them to post in General or something, because the Localization forum isn't the place for it.

    I can see why they are doing it because it does say "Feedback", but I've always understood this forum to be for Localization. The word Localization is probably not understood by a lot of people as referring to feedback for the localization team who translate from Japanese to English.

    I think they misunderstand what GMs mean too. They usually say you can post feedback about the game, their policies or their service on the forums but I don't think they implied it to ever be so entirely positive and not raising some sort of concern, although I'm sure it is very nice to see such nice feedback.
