just my view of the forums.
Because, although your post is reasonable, it simply will not work. Let me explain my views:
First, let me start with the most obvious (to me) one: because "knowing what's going on" is very subjective term and usually one-sided (whatever that side may be).
Second, the line that divides the "you don't know enough to comment on" is flurry, who decides whether one player knows enough or not?. The issues is complex enough so generalizations like "the ones on arispotle don't have a clue" are not accurate either, as isn't the "you don't know anything about" (btw, speaking for myself really, I don't know anything about Cho, that's true, I would not go into attacking someone of hypocresy, of ego, of domination, of the basically and fundamentally similar thing about a FvF setting or a GvG setting where a single guild has as much impact as power as a whole faction because I simply can't due to my lack of Knowledge of Cho)
Finally (ignoring that the forums are public, this is just a matter of self-moderation) to be honest the position "I know about what happens there so I can give my subjective views but you know squat about what happens here so shut up" is not the best basis on top of which build up any constructive argumentation.
At the end, the best way to deal with these specific topic, is to keep things separated, both IG and IF. And each one sticks to his community.
If you play regularly on both, then more power to you.
