I say my opinion all the time. What do you mean exactly?

Why saying own opinions are illegal in this site, aspecially negative opinions.

Every single thread in this forum has opinions. And many, many threads have negative opinions about what BGA is doing wrong, for example.

What you can't do is make personal attacks against other players, developers, and site admins and try to hide behind it just being an "opinion." "I'm not saying Player X is a dumb cheater. It's just my opinion that they are a dumb cheater." No one is fooled by that sophistry, and it's pretty childish.

And saying "Game X is bad." or "Players who plays like that are bad." without adding more arguments to it would not lead to an interesting conversation or thread.

And so in some cases, that could be removed too, dunno if bga does it for that or not.

Yeah, when your opinions are expressed poorly, with yelling and insulting other users/admin/etc. then people are likely to not want to engage with you and/or mods will remove them.

Because

There's obviously no law against your opinion. To wit, you've posted your opinion repeatedly on the topic of elo and alpha.

If you're hoping for a better response to your opinion, try this...
1. Don't post in ALL CAPS. It's like screaming. Most of your posts are in caps and people are smart to just walk away.
2. Read up a little to inform your opinion before posting. People tend to be less responsive surrounding ideas that have been talked out for ages already.

Asking why a game is in alpha when several discussions have already established that BGA doesn't have the rights to release it or asking why elo exists when a myriad of threads discuss it? That's why your threads aren't gaining as much traction as you'd hope.

Hope that helps!

Considering those posts still exist and can be viewed, I have to conclude that OP seems to be able to post their opinions just fine and other people can view them just fine and choose to interact with them or not.

Yeah did * write this post? What is this lol.

There’s plenty if BGA criticism in the forums that’s layer out intelligently and politely, go look in Tournaments section. Pretty sure they never read anything in there.

*Moderator edit: please refrain from insults on BGA, this is a family-friendly platform.
