[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 9501279, member: 7006"] If it's ignored, it's usually because the poster doesn't make it plain in their post that all they wish to do is just complain and vent about something one time to get it out of their system and that they already know they aren't actually going to get what they want. If that's it... if that's all they want is to say something like "I don't like this" and that's the end of it... there doesn't tend to be as much response. Because people are at home like "Yeah, all right. You don't like it." and there's nothing really for anyone to post about. It's merely an opinion that the person states up front that it's merely their opinion, and other folks most of the time shrug their shoulders (or try to give a couple helpful ideas that the original poster doesn't respond back to because they don't care about the so-called solutions.) But when someone posts something like "I don't like this.... what does WotC expect us to do now?" Or "I don't like this... how does this make any sense?" Or "I don't like this... why are the designers not seeing what I'm seeing on how this is an actual problem?"... that's when people will jump right in to explain what [I]they[/I] believe WotC expects people to do, how it does makes sense, and why no one else sees the same problem they do. They will answer the question that was posed either implicitly or explicitly in the post. And then the so-called 'venter' will respond back with why those people are actually wrong with their answers (even though the answers are usually completely valid ideas but just not ones the 'venter' wanted to hear)... and then we are off to the races. 200 page thread here we come! Either that... or the person has just vented the same exact vent 7000 times continuously in 200 different threads, and occasionally they need to be reminded that they are just being repetitive and annoying to the rest of us. ;) Both are good reasons.
