I don't see any mention of website feedback but this seems to be the closest forum to it.

These forums have had their BB code broken for a long, long time. At least a year or two. Yet, the post still has a BB code editor built in, and still automatically BB encodes certain things when you post.

I believe LL took BB code down because of some version bug or hacker hole.

The point is these forums should be part of LL's presentation to it's community and to the world and it seems to be lacking.

The colors and layout are drab in my opinion and the fact LL has failed to upgrade/migrate their PHP code to the latest version, which is secure and safe, is ridiculous. I have my own PHP forum which needed to be upgraded recently. So, I clicked on 'upgrade' and the entire forum was instantly upgraded and migrated.

I think some attention needs to be paid to the forums here, bb code reintegrated so residents can share content with each other better, and the look of it updated as well.

Also, it could do with a General Discussion forum, as it seems more than half the forum is dedicated to advertisements.

For now, other social SL websites seem to dominate over LL's own community forums.
This is the forum that should be the one-stop community website for SL.

Just my 2 cents. Please take it constructively.
