Re: FYI Mudconnector forums shut down

Well, I wasn't really referring to the whole banner issue. I was just speaking on the subtle opinion that someone should have done X and didn't run something right even before the whole banner incident came up. Kind of like using this one incident as an excuse to pile on more issues that happened in the past as well trying to pass judgement to make a point -- he/she didn't do a good job regardless and there can be better.

Maybe I'm looking to much into this, but that's what I got out the context.

On the analogy, I think it's a good one. It's not to say that voicing feedback is bad. It's more to say that feedback shouldn't be dictation or even subtly hinting at what dictation you should be doing. For example, telling a developer what to do rather than saying why you don't like something. Or with the medical example, diagnosing yourself because you googled your symptoms. It's just good practice, even in game development, to voice your opinion on what you experienced rather than trying to be that armchair developer, armchair web master, armchair whatever.

I would hope that of all people KaVir, you would get that.
