Limelight Forums

I see a thread with like 10 +supports and 3 -supports: It gets declined
then there are threads with 2+supports and 2- supports: Staff review

Uh? What. How does this work I am courius what factors are decding wether a suggestion is declined or under staff review even though (at some suggestions) the community clearly voted for it.

Yeah i get you dude, its confusing AF.

Most suggestion threads go through Staff Review unless it receives around a very large percentage of -support out of a total of votes which I also don't know the number of. Some suggestions are automatically denied due them being large changes being reverted for instance the HUD revert threads we had many months ago. Another example of suggestions getting denied is failing to follow guidelines or even a suggestion that is on the DO NOT suggest thread.

‍ always provides the reasons as to why something is denied. This being from a direct reasons or opinions giving examples from the staff team if it went through the staff review previously.

Democracy isn't a thing here.

Which threads ?

Well yeah, it's a company. 

Sure, the staff can ask for community input but at the of the day the staff have the final say in what does and does not happen.

But in the end, the community is funding it?

But in the end, its a company and checking the previous month's store purchases, I doubt it is leading to the community funding all services/developer paychecks with £369.07 on the table.

I have to admit that recently they have been fairly community ish. But I remember very well times were it very much felt it was random.

One of the suggestions has already been handled and so it was closed.

The other three all got to staff review, were reviewed by staff and then denied.

Pretty clear?

So, you think using threads from 2017 and prior is a good use of evidence to for references for today's standards.
