@Duellist_D - do you think that people are welcome (or not) to voice their comments and/or criticism on this forum?
Hello AJCarrington.
I'm not sure what lead to this question, but to answer it:
Barring a few rare occurances where i think "insiders" acted in way that a normal user couldn't have without getting a warning for their tone(*), this forum is imho pretty open.
I'm relatively new to /this/ board, so other opinions may and will differ, be it from experience or point-of-view. Having said this, i think this forum (or the staff here) is a rather fair and honest judge on criticism and allows for a broad spectrum of opinioins on the products, which is IMHO a major plus.
I won't lie and say that all outgoing communications from Catalyst is good. Imho its actually bad overall. But the Freelancers that are communicating here on the Forum and via other channels (reddit, /tg/, etc) are doing a pretty darn fine Job in fixing stuff that they aren't technically obliged (and paid) to do.
Several thumbs up for that.
Also thumbs up for not closing this thread.
It might have been heated on times, but IMHO went into a productive/informative direction.
