The Official Forums is an EXTREMELY poor example of a "Good Community"

Didn't read through all the posts but imo this feels like the only place one can be critical and have heated discussions in this game. Try it in NN or FC chats and you get dogged on by multiple people about how you need to be more positive and any criticism against the game is wrong. How you're the problem just because you aren't dedicating your life to worshipping some of the main Scions. Things of that nature.

Try this on the official forum on some other games and the Moderators delete posts, warn (or even ban, depending on what was said and how it was said) the person who made the comments, and lock the thread. Seriously - some official forums have absolutely NO tolerance whatsoever toward negative commentary about the game they represent.

I was suspended on the Lost Ark forums, because I criticized how the moderation was deleting everyone's threads. We couldn't even have a dedicated outfit thread. Pretty much if people over there wanted a thread shutdown, at the time, they would troll in the thread, and the mods would just delete the thread entirely.

Just remember, this is the same place someone got jumped for daring to suggest a jump button might be a good idea to add to the game, that's all you really need to know.
