That's the ProZ header under which we have the two forum topics:

That's the ProZ header under which we have the two forum topics:

This implies the site would like us to report bugs and make suggestions for improvement. Put our minds together and make improvements.

But when we report a bug or make a suggestion for improvement (which other members/users might even be interested in or would like to discuss and share their standpoint), the post somehow does not appear on (or is quickly removed from) the front page and is put e.g. in the Technical support forum. The reslt is that much fewer users/members get to discuss it.

So my suggestion to ProZ here is, abolish the Bugs and Suggestions forums if you think they need such censorship (sorry, can't think of a better word). No one likes their potential shortcomings being revealed, but you explicitly request constructive criticism with your "Help us to improve".

I expect to be brushed under the carpet - no worries. ▲ Collapse

Moderators' privilege May 9

I think you can't (BTW: why would you want to?).
I tried to hide a discussion (errant technical question) but wasn't able to do it either. There's no such option visible.
