[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 9114042, member: 6801228"] Except I have never once said "I do not know, nor do I care" about WoTC. So my saying that about Coke doesn't say anything about WoTC. Assuming that because I don't know everything and I don't care about anything, just because I do not know or care about a specific thing is ridiculous. I do not know how to explain this to you better. Yes, if they learn we do not like it, they are going to work to make it something we like. But that does not necessarily mean they are making the design objectively better. It doesn't even mean that they are objectively "improving" the design when they work on it. They are "improving" it in terms of making it more like something the community likes. You are conflating concepts. See, your assumption is wrong. The only time they are changing things because they are "not well designed" despite community feedback is for those things which are extremely out of line. Something which is not well-designed on a small scale, but is highly popular, will not be changed. You are making a leap. You are conflating "well-designed" with "well liked" and assuming that those two things are the same or heavily related is a bad assumption. No, they are not looking for that answer. You keep assuming they are looking for that answer, but they aren't. If you look at what they are actually doing, it is quite clear that community acceptance takes precedence [/QUOTE]
