Server rules for different player demographics

[NoctisUmbra]

You know, I'm very grateful for SE giving such extensive effort to include the feedback of the player base in the reconstruction of this game. It allows them to keep an open mind and gain a free source of ideas from which they can pick out ones that fit their direction of the game, or inspire new ideas.

However, every time I see an OP like this I am reminded of the side-effects of this open communication approach:

The more SE attempts to consider the feedback of the player base as a whole, the more individual players with a delusional sense of entitlement appear. Suddenly there are players who feel empowered, as if their singular voice is profoundly important and SE must heed their words in order to carry the game to salvation. Anyone who doesn't agree with these people are then branded as unintelligent, or the reason the game is in it's current state.

SE will consider the opinion of the players collectively. They will look at the numbers. More importantly, they will consider how any ideas fit with their vision of the game's future, and make decisions based on that.

It is equally naive to presume anything implemented in this game so far or any change made is due to the effort of a single group of players who post on these forums as it is to presume that one's singular voice has any profound meaning.

Ultimately it is a game. Like any other entertainment media, not everyone will enjoy it. Some people will like it more than anything else, whereas others will not be able to stand a minute of it. Instead of behaving like you are entitled to drastic accommodations, just decide whether you enjoy this game or not. Then decide if you wish to continue to play it.
