Greetings community,
After lengthy discussion with both the Community and other staff members, we have reached a final conclusion on the subject of the Community Representative programme, and its implementation on the forums in general.
While we appreciate all the work that the representatives have done and acknowledge their achievements in giving community input at a time when a large number of people were dissatisfied with some community issues, we've come to believe that the representative roles themselves are now ill-suited for the more stable situation our community finds itself in and so plan on phasing out the Community Representative positions over the next few weeks.
Forum users may still continue to discuss issues in the "NW Community General Discussion" thread (which will remain stickied on this board), but any individual community issues from henceforth should be directed to a member of the senior Server or Forum staff (A list of which will be posted shortly). As per usual, any suggestions for the BCoF/NW or the Forums should be posted in their designated subforums.
Thank you to the Community Representatives for the time that you've invested into the community, your input was invaluable in determining the best course of action for the community over the past few months.
We still plan on implementing many of the concluded (but unpublished) discussions from the House of Commons board, so there's no need to worry if you'd still like to see some of those motions put into place despite the lack of the Representative position from now onwards.
Regards,
Blobmania
