It bothers me that moderators will lock a thread and call it non-constructive when it is far more constructive than many others.
Here is the post BTW.

> You want some more feedback Mr. Josh, Bravo, the rest of the crew on this run away train to the land of dead online fps, I’ll give it to you.

> You probably won’t read this, but I don’t care, on the off chance that you do, I’m going to make it abundantly clear that this CSR isn’t going to do anything for the game because apparently, YOU STILL DO NOT GET IT. And remember, this is all out of love for real Halo, that’s halo ce, halo 2, and halo 3 for all the homeboys slaving away on H5 in the bowels of 343 industries.

> Your population peaked at 31K today, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD LET THAT SINK IN. At some point, you have to stop the self denial and realize that your game doesn’t have small problems, it’s about 10 huge problems and feels NOTHING like Halo (what your core fans LOVE in the series).

>
> The CSR isn’t going to do anything because it’s not IN-GAME Motivation is what drives capitalism and what drove you devs to want to be badass programmers and or graphic designers and get to work at 343i and design cool games. So WHY DID YOU REMOVE IT FROM HALO??
> --The casual player doesn’t want to have to go through any extra steps like checking his rank on waypoint
> --The casual player actually cared about their rank in previous halos whether they would even admit it because it was in-game and it kept them striving for a goal
> --Competitive players have to have in-game rank, no matter what. No more discussion needed there
> --In game rank could have stopped the bleeding on the population
>
> Most importantly, the casual player still playing halo 4 will read this once when he updates his hd and then will never even think about it again. It is a complete waste of time to have this on waypoint, why not just ACTUALLY DO IT???
>
>
> For all the guys that don’t care about having in game ranks, then you shouldn’t care if they are in-game.

>
> Just remember, you guys killed halo. You guys crushed the hobby of the probably a few hundred thousand gamers by adding sprint, ordinances, AA’s, flinch, removing in-game ranks, gigantic maps, and throwing a horrible UI on top to ice the Halo Yoink! cake.

> Thanks a bunch 343i, I’m really glad you took the time to understand what Halo players actually wanted in a game and didn’t take a selfish route to sell out and become a call of duty wannabe franchise. YOU. HAD. A. FORMULA. YOU. HAD. A. FORMULA. Why did you have to ruin it? 
Now there are some points to the post that could be reworded but it is far more of a good point than many other threads found and not locked by staff.
I guess my point is that I think the mods are a little touchy here and apear to let power get to their heads a little. I realize that this will most likely be locked for some reason but I think its constructive. I go on the bungie.net forums and they even comment on it.
> Wow, those mods on waypoint are so touchy over there will the threads
Its kinda funny because mods over there will only lock stuff if it gets really bad or off topic.
Every change comes with a small act that no one would have thought to have a point, maybe this will be one of those posts.
