[to the devs] and to the forum moderators and commuity reps as well.

Well at least we know how to get them to respond. Just suck up to them.

It was classic stuffs Camate! /

I have wondered how you guys decide on who responds to what though. Straws? Arm wrestling? Darts? Jenga?

Typically it's rock, paper, scissors, but if I lose it's an arm wrestle rematch...I'm pretty good at those, that's why I post here the most >.>

To the EP, I think there is a fine line between complaining and complaining with constructive criticism.

If people don't complain, SE will never know what peoples serious inquires about the game are....

I'll say it again.....

The more SE hears of it the more likely we will get a response and hopefully a change. Businesses can't tay in business without customer feed back......

Without you we would not be in business.

The same thing goes for retailers.

Someone made Camate sad?! Not cool! *huggles Camate* And welcome Rukkirii! You moogle peepz rock! I love reading your posts. You guys sound like you have fun talking to us and sharing info with us. And I love watching the joking around you guys do with us and other reps. It's nice to see that you guys are actual people and not robots programmed to answer our questions.

Hugs to all the moogle peepz!

Back in the olden days the best we could hope for information-wise about FFXI was "The person in charge of that isn't here today", "We'll take that back to Japan with us", "It's working as intended", "We cannot answer questions about that", or if we were really, really lucky, we would get a really vague answer that didn't really answer the question. (Was anyone else around back when Steam Cleaner wouldn't pop, and Raise III was driven up to 4-5 million gil a scroll because Kirin was the main source for it? "We changed the pop conditions", indeed.) The amount of communication that we have now has floored the people I know who quit back in the CoP/ToAU days when it was like pulling teeth to find out anything about something or something about anything.

I consider the Community Team to be saints, because I would have yelled at everyone to get off of the forums and told the Devs to shut down the game because everyone is obviously incredibly unhappy with it if I had to deal with a quarter of the whining that they have to read. (Except with a lot of swearing peppered in. And I mean a lot. Possibly in exotic, foreign languages to be able to get more variety.)

My point is, be happy with what we have here because the Community Team is actually listening. Sure, things could be better, but things were a lot worse not too long ago and they got better because the people in charge decided to listen. If they hear nothing but "everything sucks and you will never make it any better ever", there is no reason to keep the the lines of communication open.

Also, if I ever meet the Community Team, I will give them cookies.

Ah "working as intended" I remember that. The new found responsiveness of the devs etc is great, even if the answer is no or that's too complicated to do. I'm very glad that we can get answers more often then the occasional interview or Vana'fest Q&A (speaking of, what happened to Vana'fest this year?). Kudos to the community team.
