You left out the creative team from SE actually plays the game too. So it is not likely they are completely clueless how their game works. A few hundred people screaming notice me on the forum isn't going to make much of a wave. This is not to say they aren't listening they just aren't over here doting on every comment that demands it be noticed.

Now add to this that there are people who seem to live on these forums, posting 100s of times a day. Acting like gate-keepers and self assigned forum moderators. I just block those people and move on. It has been my personal experience they add nothing to the conversation and often just want to revisit old gripes from years ago. Frankly I only come to the forum about once a month and look at some threads out of morbid curiosity.

You are right the devs play the game so they obviously know everything about how everyone else plays the game so they obviously don’t need feedback because the devs know what’s going on

So, leaving out all the comments which really aren't necessary, I doubt that anyone here isn't aware by now that SE does play the game to some extent although they have stated in the past that they rotated out the person who played a healer when they "got too good"- at the Extreme content- and they don't have a dedicated Healer designer. So that is pertinent.

For most of your post however- that's interesting, may be a grain of truth regarding these "other people", however its doubtful given the forum post limits.
