I sent a message to Russ on 29th November which as yet has not been opened
My suggestion is that the powers that be read their mail [b]A.S.A.P.
Russ has said in the forums that he doesn't use the PM system too often, Site Feedback is answered by Russ or Chris.

I am able and have looked into cases for users at RHP, and only once or perhaps twice did I have a conflict with a decision made. I was over-ruled, in one memorable instance (don't ask) and that was that.
When anyone gets a warning from the mods, or a post removed the whole team has access to the info. Fortunately there isn't one mod deciding everything in the forums. There isn't even one admin deciding everything.

Site Feedback is a total waste of time. And the fact that other Mods have access to the info, doesn't mean they have anything useful to add. The "I didn't do it" statement is one I've heard more than a few times.

Originally posted by no1marauderI believe it has been suggested several times. Among others, I think catfoodtim suggested it in his thread about improving the forum moderation system. It sounds like something that would be easy to implement (I may be wrong about this, though), and I can't see any negative aspects.
It was in a thread months ago

Originally posted by no1marauderHey, I'm with you on clan scores. Clan score rewards quantity over quality. Why should anyone get a point for a draw? Win or lost / percentages would have been much better for even play and protection from clans that rush piles of games just for points.

As for site feedback, there have been topics I've sent Russ or Chris and they just don't touch.

I received a PM from a forum mod unsigned therefore I sent one back to forum mod - I should not have to conduct an investigation into the source of the PM received in order to respond to it
I have been sending PM's to Russ for years and these have been answered in good time previously therefore it was logical to continue on a path that works.
Site feedback - Completely waste of my time and therefore never considered using it then or now

Originally posted by MctaytoWhy do you consider site feedback to be a complete waste of your time, but apparently don't see PMs the same way? Russ has expressed several times that he prefers people to use site feedback. It doesn't take more time for you to send it, and in my experience you get a reply most of the time, sometimes almost immediately, sometimes after a few days, rarely after a few weeks or months, depending on the nature of the issue and probably the workload and number of messages the site administrators get at that time. For matters of forum moderation I have found it to be rather useless though, because they will most likely just refer you back to the forum moderators.

Feedback goes to Russ and Chris who own the site together. I don't see what's your problem with that if you don't have a problem sending PMs to Russ.

Why has Jie have been locked out of the forums for asking questions about being insulted.
