We love this game, and want it to run the way it should. However, while trying not to be unpleasant, there is a reason people are getting miffed. I don’t know about you, but if that was the crowd at the party, I’d stay home too. You only focus on what they aren’t giving you. Even then, I’d much rather they spend that 15 minutes searching code for mistakes.ĮDIT: And even if the devs, and the population of the forums, did agree to 15 minutes a week, you can almost guarantee that instead of “ Thanks!” they’d get “ Why didn’t you respond to MY posts?!?” It doesn’t matter what they give you. A likely estimate would be they could read three posts-not threads, individual posts-and respond to one of them. However, all parties would require reasonable expectations of precisely what can be expected from 15 minutes of time. That said, if there were a formal “15 minutes a week” one could argue the point. Your inability to recognize the unreasonable (and paradoxical) nature of the request is likely another reason why a dev would rather not interact. “ When I ask ‘Which do you want?’ they respond ‘Both’.” “ When I leave the forums to fix lag, people complain about me not spending enough time on the forums.” “ When I go to the forums, people complain about lag.” Try to see this from a dev’s perspective: I absolutely do expect they could strike a balance for both. It's unreasonable to think being a little friendly is going to make that big a difference in how productive they're going to be. Especially the ones that have nothing to do with fixing lag because they're not systems designers :P I'd rather they take 5-10 mins in a day to take a break from fixing lag or whatever they're doing and come hang out and say hi, yes.
