I've read several of the topics that this sub forum gets, and all of them are closely the same: an user gives a suggestion, a mod says no. In 90% of the time there is no real talk about it or even trying to reach a middle ground. Most of the time it feels this sub forum is something like "we'll tell you why we won't change that". And this is after the suggestion pass the filter of the 2 dozens things that cannot be suggested.
It makes me feel that this is a business service, and not a community.
It could be a small thing like a new sub forum ot it could be a huge one that would dramastically change things, but the answer always stays the same, in the same mood, in the same attitude. There isn't a moment where the mod says "ok we'll talk about that and then we'll give yo feedback" or "I'll take that to X consideration and he'll see what can be done". What's the point really? To pretend that players have a say, while constantly turning them down? That isn't good for community nor good for business; unless you're trying to be 100% blizzlike, wich I doubt.
This subforum only serves to make users lose their time and yours, If you think I'm wrong, link me a suggestion from a user here that turned out to be an implemented change.

That's just from a quick glance at only the website suggestions section. There are various other suggestion threads that haven't been declined and do have discussions going on in them. That's also considering the suggestions sections were wiped of old threads, so there's not much of anything posted that's older than 3 months or so. A few of us also try to go out of our way to provide clarification as to why a suggestion is declined when we don't have to; that is a service we try to provide out of respect for those that wish to suggest improvements. If you continue to be disrespectful because your silly suggestions ( http://forum.warmane.com/showthread.php?t=337990 ) are getting declined, then you will have your posting privileges revoked. Please conduct yourself in a more socially appropriate manner in the future.
