Dev Responses

[Phenidate]

What? I know what your OP is talking about and I agree with it, as per my first post.

I was responding to Nixius, who said, "I don't see as many dev responses in the 'feedback & suggestions' forum as in the general forum, which is odd... Still, at least we have devs engaging with us at all right =)?"

Which means that he thinks it's strange that the there are not many dev posts in this section. Which indicates that he thinks this section of the forum is for game feedback, which it is not. Which is why I explained to him that this "feedback and suggestions" for the website and forums only, hence no dev posts regarding game content.

I know you posted this thread in the right forum section. I wasn't addressing that at all.

I misread, my apologies. For some reason my mind blanked out the quote.

We are aware of the issue that you're posting about. It's hard for us to say "yes, we will only respond to topics in posts that are made in the correct forum." We usually respond to topics that have major discussions and as I'm sure you can see, that is more often than not the General Discussion forum. "Why don't you move the threads to the appropriate forums then?" Because then we'd be spending most of our day doing just that. I'll make sure we try to strike a true balance on where we respond, but I assure you that even the "small topics" in the right forum are being seen. You can be sure that those view numbers next to the topic, 9 times out of 10, one of them is us.

We'll try harder!

Bayohne, I greatly appreciate that you and the team are replying to out posts. It alleyed my greatest concern dating back to my time with FFXI and how little we heard from the team back then.

I really don't want to be negative about this at all but more concerned about the state of these forums, please keep in mind many of the posts replied to in General are reposts and multi-reposts of relevant older topics in the correct forums, which have no dev response.

I just feel by mostly responding in there it encourages people to continue to only voice any and every concern there, cluttering up that forum and leaving it feeling like a ghost town out here
