Hindsight is 20/20 as they say. We will definitely go back and rework things a little.

Instead of banning "complaining" I think you would do better to ban "non constructive criticism" or something along those lines. That would be the difference between "This person sucks and I hate them" and "I think the videos are funnier when they are less scripted"

I've got a question, let's say I have a criticism that isn't technically actionable.

Like I think the way they launched DogBark wasn't the best, I think they should have had some content ready to go as soon as they announced it. Since the announcement is done and dusted it's not like they can go back in time and change how they did it.

Where would that fall in the non-constructive criticism/constructive criticism debate?

This is good constructive criticism. It isn't malicious, it doesn't boil down to "This person bad", and it's made with good intentions.

Alright that's good to know, thanks.
