Did they end up getting rid of the Inquisition Feedback and Suggestions forum? Seems to have vanished.

 

They moved it to DA franchise forum.

It didn't vanish, the people did.

Well, I shouldn't be surprised, since the Doctors (founders) and many of the original staff left Bioware has simply turned into a **** Company, of course the forum must eventually fall into the same quality level, it was really only a matter of time.  
 
The past couple of years they have spent their time making bug-ridden games with bland ''Streamlined'' (lol) awesome- button game play, unoriginal writing with nonsensical endings, releasing bland bug ridden money-grab DLC, treating their fans like garbage and blatantly lying to them, utterly failing in their marketing and community presence. Its really going downhill for them in every way possible. 
 
I'm not going to rant here, but I kind of stopped being a fan. I'm going to sit back now and watch what happens with Bioware. Maybe they'll release a good game again, maybe they'll be trapped forever in the dime a dozen mediocre game company pit. Who knows, but thankfully there are many other companies which have surpassed Bioware on all levels, so no big loss. *Shrugs*

Well, there's one bright spot in off topic getting shut down then...

The sad part is I'm actually considering going back to those horrid forums now.

 

If only they allowed for name changes...

The funny part of the whole "the forums are toxic" thing is that the off-topic was pretty much the least toxic of any of them.

 

As an Offtopic regular, yup. And I can say that without biased glasses, because I was an Offtopic regular exactly because the people there are a very openminded bunch for as long as you aren't a prime example of GIFT. And if you were, the Offtopic section didn't get toxic, it went anti-toxic to expel the impure filth out of its system.

 

Don't know how the Offtopic was back in the day when Priestly had a mind of purging it, but considering the other section that got the global banhammer was the ME romance section during a time when you couldn't say anything without starting a flameware, so I assume the nowadays Offtopic I know isn't even remotely as bad, so that can hardly be a viable reason to close it.

*snip*

- Bison overcomes his DotA 2 addiction only to fall pray to League of Legends. Dio Demon becomes a well known DM but his family believes he is actually a BDSM Dungeon Master. Dominus goes cold turkey on MLP, only to have Recon send him sexually suggestive Luna imagery under the guise of "testing" his resolve. Etc etc.

Wait...he's not? >.>

I'd love to hear from a BioWare employee about why it was closed down in its current non toxic state.

 

As in actually hear their explanation as to why they think it's going to result in a stronger community, not just that it somehow magically will or that they "want a focus on discussions about BioWare games".

 

I'm hoping for an actual explanation of the changes rather than PR speak, though I feel as though we wont be getting one =P

Bethesda's better than here, and there's always the paradise which is Valve.

They don't WANT this place to exist. And instead of hoping it would slowly die, they instead are working on hacking it to pieces.

Someone else's said it already, that they do this because they consider the bsn a waste of time and money, and I'm strongly inclined to believe it.

In that case they should have given us a week's notice and then closed the whole thing completely.

Might add some real changes and remove the stupid and annoying "new" next to each forum, just saying.

Explain to me how the lack of an off topic section is supposed to help. I want to see if I can comprehend how Bioware thinks.

What was Bioware thinking?

You're assuming they were thinking?  Ha. This about sums up my thoughts right now.

A strong community on your forums is actually not a bad thing. It can be a very good thing.

 

Despite the fact that it can get volatile from time to time when you do things your fanbase doesn't like, it's still a solid source of feedback directly from a portion of the most dedicated of your fanbase.

 

The off-topic section largely exists to try and contain the off-topic threads to one board, as well as provide staying power when you don't have any games that are considered current such as right now for BioWare. A lot of people have moved past Inquisition, and Andromeda is still a long ways out.
