The ‘Dev Tracker’ subsection is one of the first places I stop by when I visit the forum.
I hope I’m right in assuming that the purpose of the dev tracker is to let visitors quickly see if any of the development team has posted any comments of interest.
However, depending on what time you check in, the dev tracker will often be inundated with what you might call ‘maintenance’ posts: notifications of threads being locked, and notices to keep a thread on-topic.
This can undermine the purpose of the dev tracker; instead of keeping people informed of developer participation in the more vibrant and interesting discussions, it becomes a reference of all the threads that have had to be locked or told to calm down.
Please give mods and devs the ability to discretionally exclude any particular post they make from being listed in the dev tracker system.
