There are times that Alte can be harsh, granted, but if he isn't, then who will? Things on the Wiki occasionally need a firmer hand than other times. Politeness is a standard, granted, but if everyone stands around and merely thinks that some suggestion shouldn't be proposed, or prefaces every sentence with "No offence meant, but...", then we wouldn't have a useful suggestions forum.

The Forum was not created to be such a large part of the Wiki, and allowing it to maintain its exponential growth without removing suggestions that are not fit for the mod team may lead to a complete shutdown of the Forum, or to no suggestions being considered at all.

It is Altes job to patrol the Forums, and no matter how harsh he can be at times, as many have noticed, he is still doing his job efficiently.
