I dont think the game developers read any of the forums. i know they have a lot on their hands, but there's no point in the suggestion forum if they aren't even going to look at it. i've seen many posts redirected my game masters, but never a game developer response. Knowing that a game master will think of this as a suggestion, he'll probably redirect this forum too.

Hi. I'm a World of Warcraft developer.

We're out here, reading. That includes the Suggestion Forum.

Speaking for myself, I have a great many things to take care of in a given day. From meetings to design to implementation to bug fixes, there's always something important that requires my attention in order to deliver updates to the game our customers play. Feedback from the community is important as well, and we do take time to read the forums personally.

To be perfectly honest, however, if the developers took time out of their day to respond to every suggestion made on the forums, there would be no time left to actually develop the game.

This is one of the many reasons the Community Managers exist. While we do read the forums as well, the forums are truly their domain. They collect feedback and suggestions from the community constantly and ensure matters are brought to our attention.

Because of this (and the legal concerns previously mentioned) we cannot respond to the Suggestion Forum. We do appreciate your input, however, and we have implemented many things that have been presented in that medium.

(I'm not at work today, naturally, just posting this on my own time on the weekend to help inform people.)

Q u o t e:
I'd find the thread whereby it says they are broken, but I am unable to because I've got to get ready for work.


How about I save you the trouble and just say it here: we're aware that the forum search function is acting a little wonky. =)

I do believe that everyone's concerns here have been answered, but if there is anything I can assist with, please let me know. ^_^

P.S. Heya Kisirani. =)

Hey, Reythur. Sorry for stepping into your usual stomping grounds, but I felt this was something that was most easily clarified by a developer saying something in person. The chance of it being some "party line" goes down rather drastically. ;)

As an aside... TWulf, etymology is pretty fascinating.

Tongue-in-cheek, that one. I most prefer "tendency to cause trouble." ;)

But it also means Omen, as in my avatar.

Me and Griftah, we're BFF. Ever since I bought his Infallible Tikbalang Ward, I've never once been carried off into the trees by a tikbalang.

Q u o t e:
Many moons ago, i used to frequent a Babylon 5 forum. J. Michael Straczynski, the creator of the show was a regular poster there. If there was any thread with story suggestions, ideas for the future of the show, character development, etc. he would always excuse himself from that thread and not post gain in it. All pretty much for the legal reasons outlined here.
