I'm sorry, but I'm not convinced the player behavior boards category gets anything done.

Ever notice how many downvotes 80% of the player behavior threads get?
Many of those threads get downvoted for a variety of reasons - for making poorly thought-out suggestions, having disagreeable content, being non-discussions, having no productive discussions, etc.
The downvotes don't really matter, anyhow. All they are is disagreement points.

By what metric do you judge productivity? How are we unproductive, and how might we go about improving our productivity?
You can't gauge productivity by the amount of downvotes a majority of threads have. That's like saying that a book is going to be bad because the cover is red.
IMO, I'd say we get plenty done. Our goal is to explain and discuss the Player Behavior systems and punishments - which we do pretty much daily. You could probably claim that we're not productive based on whether or not discussions/explanations resolve satisfactorily, but that would place an impossible metric on us - since we can't control whether or not someone else is satisfied with the answers they get - and there are many people out there who just won't be satisfied, no matter how thoroughly the situation is explained.
So, what's your metric for judging productivity in PB?
Not sure how upvotes/downvotes matter on this boards.
Why not post a suggestion or two on how things can better "get done" than posting an irrelevant rant?
Player behavior boards could do better, but so could the people coming to demand things instead of asking for them.
rant exists. use it.
diss an entire board, sure, but at least give reasons other than
"thEy gEt dOWNvoTeD sO nOThiNG coMEs froM tHEM1!!!111"
Makes 0 sense. Elaborate, move to the Rant board, or do nothing and let the mods decide.
Those are the 3 options I see coming from this.
