Okay, so as far as I can tell the norm in Customer Service is to alert the team about the suggestion/bug/whatever and close the thread.


The only issue I see with this is that it gives no opportunity (besides making a new thread about it, which is repetitive and unnecessary) for the Mods to report back to the players on the status of their suggestions or the bugs or whatever.


So what I'm suggesting here is to have a bit of "status reporting" where instead of immediately closing the thread, a mod would report to the team, and then inform the players about the team's take on the suggestion/bug/whatever a bit later. In my eyes this would be a decent increase in transparency as it would show, to some extent, whether what we say truly has any effect.

I would assume that if mods can close thread, they c*so re-open them and/or reply to the thread despite it being closed. That's how most forums work.


The real problem is that often times, the inquiry goes nowhere and not a word is heard after weeks. And even if we open a new thread about it and ask about the progress, there would be no answer. That's not a mechanics problem of the forum, but a problem of the process.

well another issue would be that the players cannot ask for further information on the topic since thread is closed , or post more screenshots to support his bug report etc .

I for one believe they shouldn`t close threads untill problem is solved or untiil the OP of the thread states he needs no further assistance on the matter and thread can be closed.
