what these forums need

✭✭✭✭✭1. You have a /feedback feature in-game. If you aren't in the game, you don't have relevant feedback.
2. No. If you want to talk about something else, go to a forum about that topic.----

Xithian✭✭✭At first I was put off by not having a suggestions forum... but after I thought about it, it's probably better to have suggestions be done in game as they are now. It keeps people without active accounts from suggesting things, which makes sense to me. It also keeps people from arguing about the suggested changes, which in turn keeps the process of looking through them easier for the devs.
While I don't think an "off topic" forum would be good, I do wish there was a "General ESO" section. New Player Questions has inherited that role, because it's fairly unavoidable that ESO players on an ESO forum will want to chat about the game in general.2 -

I can't decide if I enjoy Jpgs or Gifs more. Maybe both the same because after all Gifs are just Jpgs ran in succession like a flippy book.I like Jpgs.

1. Please explain what relevant feedback someone who isn't playing the game can provide. I'll wait.
2. The mods determine what is/isn't on-topic. There is no need for an off-topic forum, because there are other forums to discuss those topics.
And if you really want to ignore someone's post, willpower is free.----

Orizuru✭✭✭I would support a General Discussion forum, but not an Off Topic one. I don't want my monthly fees to go towards paying for additional storage on the web servers so players can post pictures of their cats/kids for strangers.

Must you always make things personal?
And if you have a genius brainwave while you aren't playing the game, either write it down or get a better memory. The /feedback feature guarantees someone at ZO reads it. The only reason you'd want a suggestions forum is to garner some kind of reaction from other players.----

Sure they might. But usually people don't stick around to see what input people have for their suggestions (see this thread), because they don't want input. They just want people to validate their opinion. If they really want something to be looked at by the developers, they won't post in a forum, they'll submit the feedback in-game.----

I post all of my cat pictures here.
On of more relevant note, while you may want to post suggestions from work the convenience of that does not outweigh the benefit of having the devs get ideas directly from players guaranteed to have an active account and with none of the forum drama. Drama such as already appears in this thread suggesting that we have a suggestion forum section.3 -

If I'm one of the poor employees who has to wade through the seas of "OMG, nerf DKs!" suggestions, I'd be much happier having only one channel for those to come through. Otherwise I have to look at forums and at the in-game feedback box. Oh, and I have to try and eliminate the double-posting that would inevitably occur.----

They already do that. Except as it is now, they have to wade through multiple forums on here to do it. Want to know why they do that? It's what they are getting paid to do. It's kind of their job. They also monitor boards at reddit, twitter, facebook and google+ and many other outlets.0 -

Two avenues for suggestions would double the resources needed to organize and present the ideas to the relevant people. Suggestion forums tend to suffer from excessive trolling and lots of arguments that are not constructive, much like any other forum does. Having suggestions submitted privately ensures that everything read by ZOS is assumed to be constructive, whereas a forum requires some rather deep wading boots to find even an ugly pearl.1 -
