Thoughts on cultural differences. Take it as you will.

If we cry, kick and scream then we are seen as petulant young children

I'm afraid it's too late, far too late. I wouldn't pay attention to 95% of the posters here if I was one of the devs, most of them cannot form a complete sentence, much less a coherent thought or valuable suggestion on how to improve the game. Most of the suggestions are just incredibly short-sighted ideas with zero consideration for balance followed by a "just fix it now" or "I'm sure you know what needs to be done."
