Maybe.
This is the internet, afterall.
But seriously, if taking 2 minutes from someone's work day will cause the game development to come to a screeching halt- they're doing it wrong.
Even if the respond to EVERY post here, it isn't a time sink to the extent absolutely nothing else would get done. That's a weak excuse. I work 10 hour days, managing a company, and I could do it. Please.
How hard is that server’s job right? ;) they dont do anything else at all...
Carrie said there would be periods of silence in the State of Galaxy and Q&A , because sometimes its about reflection not just talking.. people and you included hate “corp talk” but the demand for “hear you” , “looking at it” is just that... i think in someways we can try to find a better balance of real talk , productive talk, and corp talk to both say “we’re not dead, we here you, not yet” in ways that dont sound as condescending as saying nothing is also itself viewed as disrespectful
But to be equally fair, when your passionate about something you are more invested (like running a company) than say the frontline casual person. So it IS IMPORTANT you feel engaged, and feel valued but also know when your a high energy and invested person your sense of vitriol and feel of being disrespected is much higher and so sometimes we all have to be better than “thats the internet” and in the times of the world... maybe we stop defending rude, mean, cruel actions simply “because”
Thats all, but we want people engaged even when they hate the change or response.. better your debating content and stuffs vs. bashing on the people or perceptions of the people..
But frustration is noted, heard, and will try to get some specalist droids on topics to engage

Flood or wave of communication leads to down times as they focus on the game side - and crumb is also working on forum and other issues but we will try to get more comments and the details of “heard you” or “working or looking at” tend to be just a riling and not liked
But i think insulting and taking easy mean jokes is funny but doesn’t really work towards effective change and since people think being mean = reaction, maybe thats part of the problem.
Sometimes it is to quiet, or too active, etc its the balance in between but since we dont control how people handle themselves... will say will see if we can get some love on more threads to round the week off
Fairly stated. But the Kaiser Soze and car reclining seat gifs are pretty funny, but back to the point.
I think its fair to say a game 'improvement' thread nearly 50 pages long that (based on the posts without doing the math) is hated by something north of 90% of the community should have some kind of comment. Something, anything. Some people likely invested thousands in ships 1.0. That degree of a change should warrant a response. I cant think of another business model that finds it the norm to completely ignore paying customers for weeks on end. Venom or not. Sometimes you have to suck it up and say sorry, maybe it was for the benefit of the game, and understand it impacted some players negatively but for the long term health of the game we had to make a change. A 5 letter word would go a long way i think, even if nothing changes.
I get yelled at every day as a supervisor for things that were necessary or that i couldnt control. I hear them out, then offer a sincere apology. It doesnt in the end matter if i was right or wrong, it matters how that customer feels. Feel free to steal my roadmap for how to engage your player base. ; )

This is a terrible post. Of course I meant a @CG_Kozispoon gif.
What kind of gif?

I really appreciate that you're trying, @Vampire_X, I really do. And I understand, that devs will be less visible as far as communication from time to time.
But let's be clear- LESS visible does not mean INvisible.
Let that sink in.
We don't ask for much, if we search deep down. Be consistent, be clear, be honest. It's not that hard to comprehend. When we don't get these 3 basic things, you get 21 pages of discontent.
