The way it goes is Foxclon says they monitor the forums and feedback, and make a report of what they are seeing and relay it up. That doesn't mean they touch everything but you also have to remember a few months ago YoshiP called out people who were being blatantly rude to the devs in the forums.

He likes his SHb-style of changes of just adjusting numbers and moving on now unless it's a special project (SHb Summoner, EW Dragoon/AST 6.2+). Does this skill need to be more potent, is MP value correct, etc. If anything I'm kind of glad they realized they need to start nerfing things again instead of playing lets bring everyone up. It's better to bring down one value than mess up numbers for 3 more jobs, and playing the rat race.
