Date posted? 1/19/2012. Current Date? 1/23/2012. When are we going to stop saying "no information posted at all" and start saying "no information I care about posted at all"?

See bolded (because reading is clearly not your strongest character trait):

It's unfortunate he has been un-well, but using that as the basis for a letter is a cop-out when the playerbase hasn't seen much significant information since payments commenced.

especially when you consider that no major information has been provided in a good length of time

But Belial let me ask you this, if you had not received a Letter for another 3 weeks, are you saying that you wouldn't be going, "WTF?! Why have we received no letter yet from Yoshi?! ARRRRRGGGHHHH"

I could be wrong and I'm not flaming you Belial but curious if it's not possible either way still would have made people here freaking WIGGG OUT and rage.

No, I would not. See, I'm one of those rare instances of a person that has patience for a game known to be in development. Have I ever posted about things taking too long for this game? No, I'm of the persuasion to tell people yea, you have to wait, as the process they are undertaking to correct the game is a lengthy one. Expecting patches or large wall o' text updates every month simply isn't feasible, especially when the patches we are receiving are simply band-aids & small content; as the bulk of the work lies in a new server structure & game engine (not to mention map redesigns, and other such things.) But there are certainly folks here with the "gimme nao!" mentality.
