Quoted: "...On a side note...this particular forum is *supposed* to be for questions to the Lindens. I've noticed that most of the posts here are not questions at all but suggestions to problems or outright berating of Lindens for the way things are going in SL at the moment."

People are co-opting this forum for a different use than was originally intended because:
1) People cannot or will not (for good reason) create accounts capable of posting comments on the offical blog.
2) LL took away all forums that could be used for the resident community to unilaterally post their concerns about the game in general. There is not a single way to come present your case to LL now, except for this forum.
What did you expect when LL completely sundered the only vehicle for residents to come communicate to LL?
