This thread isn't about any one particular issue, though a simple look at the front page of general discussion as of the time of this post will show that there's mixed reactions to a number of proposed additions and changes being made to the game.

Now, I'll start by saying that I have been playing this game for almost a decade and have never been sent a survey asking my opinion on pretty much anything related to game. I've certainly spoken up about what I'd like to see added or changed though such was never framed as a demand.

I find myself increasingly curious about something. Who, exactly, is being asked for their opinions in regards to changes and additions to the game and what numbers are we looking at to justify them?

I believe this is information that could be revealed during a Live Letter. After all, there's ample time spent detailing that additional MSQ's are arriving in a new patch and showcasing merchandise so I don't doubt that a slide could be squeezed in somewhere to give some insight into what sort of data they're drawing upon.

Assuming this happened, I'm curious as to what sort of data other players would want to see put forward and explained. So have at it!

In the spirit of avoiding influencing the debate, I'll keep my own specific thoughts to myself for the time being in favour of posting them later.
