I don't recall suggestions being the same as demands. The subforum is still called "suggestions"
Quote:
sug·gest (sg-jst, s-jst)
tr.v. sug·gest·ed, sug·gest·ing, sug·gests
1. To offer for consideration or action; propose: suggest things for children to do; suggested that we take a walk.
2. To bring or call to mind by logic or association; evoke: a cloud that suggests a mushroom; a ringlike symbol suggesting unity.
3. To make evident indirectly; intimate or imply: a silence that suggested disapproval.
4. To serve as or provide a motive for; prompt or demand: Such a crime suggests apt punishment.
In my opinion a suggestion serves the same purpose as an advice.
Which means that they are not obligated to follow it, like for example if they think that your suggestion is not what they originally had in mind or if it is not interesting enough for them.
