I got to ask one of the mods. Does this really need to go through the normal bureaucracy? All the devs really need to do is adjust the cap on the replay limit; nothing like a complicated request that needs the fine tuning of a regular poll. To be honest, this is really more of an administrative decision to begin with.
If several of the mods think it is a good idea to adjust the limit, doesn't that constitute as an a priori decision (in lieu of this being an administrative decision)? I feel like this thread just goes to show why each suggestion should not be put on the same playing field, as different suggestions, such as much more player driven suggestions (i.e. ways to make the game MMO) have more reason to need more time on the forum before it reaches the devs. Just my opinion though.
edit: you can also apply this argument to why there should be subthreads, and each subthread would have a voting limit that reasonably matches the intended purpose of said subthread.
edit2: sorry if my edit seems a bit off topic, but as there is no subthread that tries amalgam different thread topics in one, this seemed like the best place to write it.
First every thread goes through the same stages, if you ignore the rules and standards for one you will do so more and more frequently. Second just because it is not moved to popular suggestions does not mean that the devs do not see it. Thirdly mods do not have any priority in vote or more weight to our votes, we are community members and players. We are not staff and do not receive any preferential treatment (we still make suggestions and get people to vote on them).
