The hundreds of thousands of people enjoying the game and not complaining really shows how amazing a job Yoshi is doing despite the vocal haters. That's why I want to make the positive voices vocal for once :-D.
I love that narrow view you have, there. Are there haters and trolls? Plenty. You know what else there are, that you continuously ignore? Those of us who are worried about where the game is heading, and are trying to prevent a slow decline. Why are we on this thread? Simple, you are encouraging piss-poor behavior into continuing; by making this thread, you are actively saying that doing things like the 3.15 fiasco is perfectly acceptable, and that they can get away with it again and again. On top of that, your statements are inaccurate at best, and clear lies at worst. "making the greatest comeback in gaming history since FFI"? Really? A bit of an over-exaggeration there, buddy. As far as fresh content is concerned, that's heavily debatable; what exactly is new, besides the scenery? Diadem? One massive Hunt-grind in an instanced area. For 90 minutes straight. Void Ark? Interesting to look at, yet it's mechanics are so easy that we completely face-rolled it on the very first try. You'll have to remind me (and MANY others) what Lords of Verminion is again, seeing as how it was dead on arrival. 3.15? Don't even get me started; new looks, same thing. 3.15 was a subscription grab that they claimed took FIVE MONTHS to complete. Dang, that's one slow copy/paste. Raiding more accessible? Erm....last I checked the raiding community had a mass exodus due to how boring and irrelevant the savage content is. Character customization....I can't tell if you're trolling or not. For goodness sake, they didn't even add in friggin scroll-bars for unique looks; it's all pre-made! ALL of it! And so much for being able to choose which horns you want for your Au'Ra. Remember them saying how that would be a thing? Yeah, me too. Housing is a train wreck, and has been since implementation. If you own a house, cool! Too bad for everyone else though, eh? Let's not even get into the famous statement, "Personal houses will differ from free company housing and, naturally, be far more affordable".

You can praise the dev team...but be accurate about it, please! Here's an example; Yoshi and crew, you guys make amazing visuals. Really, the game is absolutely beautiful to look at, as is (most) of the weapons and armor. That was a completely honest statement from me, and it's very true. But PLEASE do not encourage bad/dirty business, as you're only sending a message to the big-wigs upstairs that it's perfectly fine to keep milking the players for everything they have while investing almost nothing back into the game. You think you're helping, but I'm afraid to say you're not. If you want to help, offer one of two things; either constructive criticism with well-founded reasoning, or constructive complements, that are ACCURATE and are things they truly shine at.

Lastly, I'll just leave this here, it's a statement that an old coach of mine told me, and I'll never forget it. It applies to this game very, very well.

"John, (that's my name) I yell at you because I care about you, and I want to see you reach your full potential. The day I stop yelling at you is the day you need to start worrying."

Simply put, the day that this forum stops churning out worried threads, is the day SE and the dev team need to truly worry. We're worried and concerned about the game...for now. But eventually, we'll simply stop caring.
