Those forums were a joke.

If anything it should serve as a reminder at just how good it is to have a popular third party gaming site forum like this one.

Yep, and Bioware has had this stance on forums since they took over WAR.

This, I never understood why official forums get to popular. When you are constantly censored. Can never say anything critical about the game or have a real discussion. Eff official forums.

They did the same thing on the Bioware social site forums for Dragon Age and Mass Effect. It isnt just a ToR thing.

This.
How is having a zero tolerance policy on attacking mods,staff, or community members a bad thing?

cuz the mods now are judge and jury.
basically what I think is happening is all the veteran mmo players, are just disappointed and pissed that the most hyped game in years is basically a single player game with a chatroom.

now pretty much any thread critical of BW/EA is being locked down.
especially threads talking about the lack of server population.

I am waiting for their 1st quarter earning reports, last quarter they said they had 1.7 million subscribed users(this includes free 30 day accounts)

Like when I check my post history every thread I have started or posted in that says something critical about the game they have locked.

? Endgame isn't particularly groundbreaking, but it's not horrible either. I just wish I'd get less Huttball (which is gonna be fixed come 1.2) and that they'd fix Jindo Krey. At least I was able to buy my Columi chestpiece so I never have to do The False Emperor.

The faction imba is bad, but that's nothing new for MMO's either.

I used to be super critical on the WoW official forums all the time, but I'd also offer suggestions to the problems that I was being critical of.

Not once, in all of my posting of problems that I perceived, or the solutions I had to them, or heck - even some complaints, did I ever get a response that said, "Stop it, and chill out," from their moderating staff.

There are perfectly effective ways of getting your point across, without being a total asshat about it. In fact, if you're willing to put forth some effort - you can even offer solutions to the perceived problems, and you might find positive responses to them.
