If Mojang's server hosting turns out to be cheaper than most of the current paid server hosts, it could seriously hurt business for a lot of them.
If it's more expensive, then I don't see any real advantage to Realms over any of the billion existing 3rd party host services.
Mojang has one large advantage over other hosts - trust.
If you are looking for a third party host, there's a lot of potential research involved, who is cheapest, while still being reliable. And it's hard to accurately find who is reliable.
Mojang on the other hand... while many third party hosts are legitimate businesses, people will view Mojang as legitimaterererer.

If it doesn't involve Redstone it might be best to avoid calling it Redstone.

What has been stated in past is that a new forum platform is being developed for the Minecraft Forums. Creating a mobile app for the current forums will be too time-consuming when it would have to be recreated to be compatible with the new platform soon after. Also, I hear the new platform will be a lot more mobile-friendly.

Sounds pretty standard for the internet.

Most people I know agree with this. However, the Minecraft Forums are not a platform to fight social justice battles. Whether we disagree with parenting techniques or not, there's nothing we can do to change it. Sure, a stand could be taken and swearing could be allowed so parents have to harden up, but what would that do? It wouldn't change the parent's attitude, it would just mean they wouldn't let their child on these forums, depriving them of a resource and community they may desire in terms of minecraft.
While I agree with you that the previous example of murder was over the top, your example is also over the top in terms of punishment.
In this situation, if you went over the speeding limit and it was your first offense, you get an informal reminder. For subsequent offenses, you get written warnings that don't actually do anything. When you get to your fourth offense, and your third written warning, you get your driver's license revoked for three days. After your initial two written warnings, the faster you go over the speed limit (so the more danger you put others in), the longer your drivers license is revoked for.
This system makes complete sense to me. The driver has been told repeatedly, both informally and formally, that going over the speed limit, even only by one mile/hour, is unacceptable by the police. It is not too hard to keep just under the speed limit, and not risk a warning. However if one were to find themselves incapable of not going over if they tried to keep just under the limit, then it would be best if they were to drive even slower, or not at all.

That should be the least of your concerns and is hardly important.

Have you checked to see if you are receiving PMs, but just not recieving notifications of that fact?
You say you cannot send a PM to anyone, what are you trying to do to send a PM and where is it failing?

Considering this is the minecraft forums, it isn't a very difficult (albeit incorrect) assumption.

The administrator should have at least replied with a "This infraction stands" or "I see where you are coming from" or some other well-phrased fancy language meaning either no or yes.
If the infraction is recent enough to still be active but less recent then the last day or so, I'd suggest going to #minecraftforum and asking there.

Congratulations, you have the ability to "know" things without proof, evidence, or logical reason behind them beyond simple assertion.
That's not how a theory works.

It doesn't stand for anything. Its just a word.

What, are you the official on that?

If we didn't have the Suggestions section, people would still post their suggestions.
They'd post them all in Minecraft Discussion -Discussion or something, cluttering it up even further.
The way I see it, the Suggestions section has never been for Mojang to see it, its to lump it all in one spot so the people who don't want to see them don't, and the people who do want to see them do. This doesn't work for every genre of discussion that spams Minecraft Discussion - Discussion, but suggestions has enough new threads and traffic to warrant it, I'd guess.
If you remove the section and replace it with a link to reddit, most people wouldn't go to reddit, they'd still post it here, just a different subsection.
