I think that perhaps there should be a set minimum requirements in order to contribute to the feedback forum. I mean, look at some of the recent feedback threads. They're from people who either have no posts at all, or from people who don't have that many posts. And some of them aren't even feedback, they're just questions.

For example:
"my posts stoped going up."
"hacker r us?"
"stop post the same topic in two different forums"
"haha another one"

Why should people who are not even active on createBlog have any say on how createBlog is run? If the changes they want are taken into effect, it won't affect them, the lurkers, but it will affect many of the active users. With a set of minimum requirements for feedback, such pointless topics could be lessened, maybe even avoided.

(And people! Stop saying we need more staff! Or that we need more staff doing this or that. _dry.gif There's nothing staff can do about that.)

It seems a bit elitist to say that only certain members have a right to contribute feedback. Post count is never a reliable indicator of commitment or interest in a forum; is it right to say that a person who posts 1000 crappy messages has more of a right to contribute feedback than one who posts 25 good posts, and reads every post everyday? I think the system is fine the way it is; yes, you might get some crap in the feedback forum, but I think it's better to err on the side of caution and allow a lot of feedback, no matter how bad some ideas might be, than limit feedback.
