Bitching about something for the sake of bitching is not constructive.

This might blow your mind... but criticism is not invalid just because it's non-constructive.
I don't know what's wrong with this generation of humans that people seem to believe they're infallible to criticism unless the person criticizing them is also spoonfeeding them a solution.
ZOS deserves the negative criticism they get. We don't owe them constructive responses.
ZOS repeatedly over the last 4 years or whatever it's been, constantly putting stuff in PTS that gets criticized and going live with it - time and time again. Clearly they aren't responsive to constructive feedback as it is.
I mean just stop a second and think. Why does it need to be constructive? If I got drunk out of my mind right now, went driving and caused some accidents - would you be giving me "constructive" criticism - or the duly earned non-constructive criticism. This is just one example of 100s of 1000s of real life scenarios where constructive criticism is not warranted.
There comes a point where asking people to be constructive is a form of diffusion of responsibility. ZOS has been at this point for years.
If I want to say to somebody "Your product is bad" - that is NOT an invalid statement. It's not my job to tell them how to make it better... it's THEIR'S.

ZOS repeatedly over the last 4 years or whatever it's been, constantly putting stuff in PTS that gets criticized by huge quantities of players - both constructively and non-constructively... and they always go live with it anyway - time and time again. Clearly they aren't responsive to constructive feedback as it is. I don't think there's every been a single instance of ANY PTS where players said to ZOS "this is bad, please don't do this" and they actually listened. PTS is a joke because of it.

Yes, but if you want them to listen, it really helps if you are constructive about it.
Very few people have been able to change my mind/opinion/behaviour by being rude and unconstructive. Because my default position will be to ignore or dismiss them because of their attitude. Many people have been able to change my mind/opinion/behaviour by being productive about it. I would imagine that each of us is similar.
If what you want is for ZOS to change something, the best way to achieve that is to make a coherent case for it. You can do that without being ranty, angry or ‘unconstructive’. You can do that without even telling ZOS how bad they are and how right you are.
Alternatively, if you want to shout and scream like a petulant 2 year-old, you can do that too, only don’t expect anyone to take you seriously and occasionally expect to get sent to your room to cool down,
Being petulant and attacking the devs on a personal level is never okay.
Constructive criticism is the right way to go about things. When will people here learn? You will get locked when you scream like a petulant, spoiled child, and then act like you are the victim.

If you don't like the game or the apprach taken with it, then it is in your power to do something else.
Why we have to have this song and dance every single time there's a change..
The only constant is change. Get use to it, and when you enter the real world as an adult you will be much more prone to being agile and able to adapt. (I am assuming that you are still an adolescent because frankly an adult would not get this strung out over a game.)

I can see only one petulant 2 year old in this discussion spouting same nonsense over and over.
Reality is ZOS time and time again said themselvs they need to better communicate. There were mutliple attempts by community to help, class representatives program is prime example. A lot of effort by community with no or very little impact on actual changes, many reps left because of it. One was so desperate that leaked patch notes well knowing what consequences would be. The only time ZOS reconsidered their position was on shield cast time and not because of "constructive, calm" discussion but becuasr there was a lot of uproar. They partialy reversed the changes despite the fanboys like you cheering for them in the forums.
The only ones realy behaving like 2 years olds are the developers and people like you covering their ears and repeating "i cant hear you".
Pride goes before destruction and arrogance before a fall.
ZOS developers and some on this forums are to proud and arrogant to even consider that people who sinked houndreds or even thousands of hours in this game may know better.

It's hard to conceive, but could it be that you are genuinely not aware of your own rudeness ?

No, it does in fact work this way regardless of a TOS. Just as a steakhouse owner has the right to throw you out or ban you for staging a vegan protest in their restaurant. As @Huyen pointed out, the rules in the EU are different, but here in the States, businesses have leave to restrict almost any speech unless it is protected, which is small in scope.

Every single one of your posts in this thread is an example. Including this one. Even the title is rude. You think calling people "spoiled children" isn't rude ?
You're simply rude, and it seems you don't realize it.

Yet again I get the feeling that some people on the internet doesn't understand what criticism means nor free speech when they start rant about that.
There are loads of discussions on this forum filled with criticism that are not locked, because they are properly criticising things without personal attacks and baiting.

To recap:
- You calling me rude without any explanation in your first post seems to be fine with your moral compass of "rudeness"
- Me asking you where my supposed "rudeness" is as you just threw that word around with no example is rude according to your compass
- The spoiled children part is debatable, but ZOS behaves like a spoiled child when faced with criticism, so calling them that is fine with me
Intriguing that just within 2 posts you judge me according to your moral compass of "rudeness" as rude while being totally fine if you're rude by calling me rude without any explanations.
I do enjoy a proper hypocrite.
And another thing: you post in a thread with a topic you clearly couldn't care less about just to tell the OP he's "rude" according to your moral compass?
Why are you even in here then?
