How hard is it to pay someone minimum wage to watch the forums and do that very thing? There seem to be people who essentially do that very thing for free both here and on the FF14 subreddit.
That I'd have to agree they are, I didn't include blizz since I feel they're still the "gold standard", and rightly so, they have the resources and use them.
They have their issues still, but they get the basics right.

All in all, I'd love SE to continually keep us in the loop when things are delayed and such, but I sadly don't think it will happen anytime soon.
