No, this is strictly a place for the community to chat with one another. The devs don't hang out here like so many people like to think. (See all those examples of people asking for changes or asking for dev advice ect..)

This is not and has never been a direct line to the developers.

It's a place for players to talk amongst ourselves outside of the game. That's it.

Very rarely they might drop an important piece of news here, but that's generally what the Lodestone is for.

Any staff member you might see post here is very likely either a forum moderator or a community manager. Neither of which are developers or have anything to do with how the game is made. They're essentially babysitters.
