Since Champions Online, for the most part, is free to play, why then are Silver Members, like myself, not allowed to post on the official forum? This should change, and soon.
I suggest the creation of a petition to solve this problem.

Give one reason to weigh against the spammer and trollers that F2P brings that make several accounts just to flame.

You should know, that ALOT of Gold members share your opinion of forum access for Silvers. I'd wager if you do a search on the official forums, you'd find the threads. Maybe it's time one of us Golds brought it up again? Oh, GJ on the "B'aal" avatar from Stargate btw

There was a thread a while back when Stormshade had a...message for some of the Gold members here. He stated at the beginning of that thread that main forum access for Silvers was in the works. That was a while ago, so I don't know if things changed since then. That thread was deleted so I can't actually link it for you, sorry.
Also the main forums seem to be a hostile place these days. Just stick with this one, it's a much nicer place IMO.

Its rather unfortunate they don't consider the f2p crowd enough of a stake holder such that they would allow them to voice their opinion on their official forums. Then again could also factor in with the impending transfer over to PW, they literally have their hands full.

Don't start it on the official forums. It'll be shot down in no time with only gold members to voice their opinion and silvers restricted to do so.

Seems like forever Don't start it on the official forums. It'll be shot down in no time with only gold members to voice their opinion and silvers restricted to do so. I'd link a thread/petition from here in my sig there if someone started one. I think alot of Gold's would also

Also the main forums seem to be a hostile place these days. Just stick with this one, it's a much nicer place IMO. This be so true. Also this place has avatars. Yeah, though, I notice Destra is testing stuff on this one also. Kinda strange

Oh, GJ on the "B'aal" avatar from Stargate btw hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/2010/04/alot-is-better-than-you-at-everything.htmlI just pictured a monster made of trolls that make dumb requests in the suggestions forum. I laughed out loud. Don't start it on the official forums. It'll be shot down in no time with only gold members to voice their opinion and silvers restricted to do so. I'm usually one of the "buy it if you want it" people. As long as they restricted the "give us more archetypes" spam? Why the heck not? They have input, too, I'd think at least the bug report forum would be a good idea, and they have as much say in the f2p forum and general gameplay forum as golds. They're playing the same game, right? Some things are a bit of a gimme. Some forum access and (ffs) 1 extra bag slot? Definitely a part of that.

Considering the vitriol in the Silvers channel last night I can 'kind' of understand Cryptic. I'd fear that the official forum would be swamped with whining about having to purchase anything at all to improve their playing. I'm sorry if this sounds elitist, but Cryptic do have to earn some kind of cash, be it from subscriptions or micro transactions.

I have three words for you: Keystoneman Snakewildlife Sithkiller Do you want me to go on? There was a thread a while back when Stormshade had a...message for some of the Gold members here. He stated at the beginning of that thread that main forum access for Silvers was in the works. That was a while ago, so I don't know if things changed since then... Wow, hard to believe that was only back in the last two weeks of April of this year. Seems like forever And after that they turned the man in to an Action Figure... I thought about returning to the game, but the idea that I may accidentally unlock that *shudder*

I'm sorry if this sounds elitist, but Cryptic do have to earn some kind of cash, be it from subscriptions or micro transactions. I agree. There should be a separation of amenities. The old Amex ad said it right "Membership has its privileges" I am surprised to hear that the official forum is in such a state that a free forum offers a better environment to its members. Not that I'm complaining in the least, but you don't expect to hear that. As for the in-game general chat channel: It's such a distraction and riddled with immaturity that I finally just went and deleted it today.

As a silver player, I don't have a problem with Gold players having their own forum. It would be nice if there was a unified bug thread though.
After this last major update, bugs have been unleashed into the game. I find I have to scroll through the official live bug thread in the gold forum and hope someone posts the issue I'm having because I can't.
