Has posting in these forums ever changed anything ?

No.
I remember shortly before DT was released there was this interview for a Spanish website where they asked Yoshida about the Spanish translation and whether he had seen a post on the forums asking for it. He said he didn't even know such a thread existed and that he would tell someone in his team (maybe Foxclon?) to check it and sum it up for him.
The thread was over 30 pages long and had hundreds of likes by the time the interview took place. Obviously, I wasn't expecting an immediate response, but if they aren't checking those kinds of threads, which ones are they taking into account? They just don't care and the state of the game shows.

Do they even have community managers? Or do they just filter out everything as nonsensical and not worth reporting? You would think the official forums would be the ones monitored and reported, but it feels like they cut their costs here as well and it is just the void unless press picks it up to amplify. Pretty embarrassing
