Hello, folks! In this thread, I will help you learn how to effectively criticize a message forum. Doing these things will almost certainly lead to a change in the way that your favorite website is administrated.
There are three basic rules:
1. Make your indifference known! Let the members of the forum know that you don't care what they think. Post this multiple times daily if you must. Only when they know how little you care will they realize how cool and aloof you are. This is crucial for making a difference, and is a delightful segue into number 2.
2. Rage against the most popular members. Every forum has popular members, and they are likely the ones that are meanest to you. As in street gangs, the popular posters will often single out one innocent person and attack him or her as an initiation rite. Refer to this group with phrases derived from high school culture, such as "cool kids", "popular clique" and "jocks and cheerleaders". Often, these groups have a de facto leader, from which their followers (or, "minions") get their matching orders. If you can determine who this person is, it is highly effective to target them specifically. If possible, try to parody their name in a humorous manner when referring to them, and, above all else, ignore them entirely. As with rule number 1, you need to make it very clear to them that you are ignoring them and do not care about anything they say. Repeat this as often as necessary to make sure that the leader and all of his or her followers know you don't care what they think or say.
3. Quite simply, melt down. Until the meltdown, no one had heard of Chernobyl. It is the single best method of advertising your cause, because it attracts the eyes of the world. Use words and phrases associated with totalitarian regimes to decry the way your forum of choice is run. Words and phrases associated with George Orwell's "1984" are also very effective. Accuse your enemies of being "Hitlers" or "Fascists", and accuse them of using "Newspeak" and the like. If all else fails, such references are sure to bring others to your cause.
Above all, remember that you are the victim. You have been unfairly targeted. This mindset is the most important for achieving positive results.
I hope this helps!
