You do know that the customers that go silently are the worst for a company? Because with them they wont know why thus cant get better. He said his deal, he did not attack the playerbase in his first post. He just showed how long he played, that he loved the game but that he want certain changes and that he is disappointed. And yet some answers feel like he attacked the people personally..Again this kind of feedback is a million time better then no feedback at all. Even Yoshida himself said that once..

And this is why this game will eventually fail: not only they don't get any of our feedback straight - if receive any at all that is - but the player base will actively punish these players if they express any their own opinion, as if they're afraid of changes or they're trolls or something.

I can't count the times where I got bashed heavily, called stupid, sometimes even mentally disabled (Yep, I was called that because I disagreed something about the community) for simply comments about many questionable features (glamour prisms, fc rooms, housing, the list is full) and I remember an old friend getting the bashing too for his concerns about the HW story blockade debacle too, telling me that he got even permanently banned from the forums - but whether this is true or not I cannot say, I haven't spoken with this friend in years.

I think the best words to describe this situation, is just to "let it go": it is clear that SE has no intention to change its patching cycle, as they will add failure upon failure in they attempt to make us "look forward to new exciting content", while having the total protection of the hardcore fanbase who will defend even the most horrible and pathetic content features for the sake of nostalgia.
I loved the game despite its flaws, I supported it for 4 years - with this being my second most played mmorpg I have, second to WoW only - and I enjoyed some story bits of it - not a fan of the MSQ but I really enjoyed the job quests, especially ARR ones - but since my words WILL be considered a threat and most likely be called out a troll or hater, I just decided to talk with my wallet instead and bring my money to other games, because there's no possible way to have a polite conversation if you disagree with anything that the devs or the playerbase say. And I think the OP did the right think.

With that said, my account has about 5 days left as of this message, so don't bother telling me to unsubscribe.

Although I can't stop anyone either...
