[QUOTE="Deset Gled, post: 3467064, member: 7808"] Honestly, I think you might be blowing things out of proportion a bit here. People are angry about the changes. This is exactly the type of place they should be coming to voice that opinion. If we want to be the "voice of the fan", we can't censor the fan. Scott Rouse may be getting a brunt of the nastiness, but that's pretty much as it should be, IMO. He's acting as the/a face of the company. He's the manager that is responsible for people that work beneath him. That's what he's paid to do. If he can't stand the heat, he should have stayed out of the kitchen. The first example you give is a post where someone took a significant amount of time to research their opinion, and shared it. It might not be pleasant, but it's not untruthful in any way. The second example you give is a bit over the top, and you can feel free to report it if you like. If the General Board was completely filled with threads that were nothing but WotC bashing, I would agree with you. But right now things seem to be limiting themselves to about four threads, and there are people voicing pro-WotC oppinions as well as negative ones. If the threads take over General, I support combining them into one thread or sticky as has been done in the past with 4e stuff. ENWorld is one of the most civil places on the internet, but it's still the internet. [/QUOTE]
