[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 9723711, member: 7635"] They do read it, they don't act on it like we think they do. For example, if WotC read all the comments on a class revision (say, the sorcerer, artificer or psion) and WotC gets feedback like "this class shouldn't exist, delete it from the game" that feedback isn't helpful to answering their questions (does this class work mechanically, is it fun to play, does it capture the fantasy?) All it says is you reject the fundamental premise of the question and nothing of value can be gleaned beyond "no". WotC rarely rejects the premise, only the implementation. Even the mystic died not because of any anti-psionics crusade but because that version of psionics was not well received. WotC reads for certain types of feedback. It doesn't weigh all feedback equally. I don't think anything short of a "hadozee level media blitz" would have deterred the PDKs and actual ADs from teaming up. It touches more than just one subclass. So if your feedback was on how mechanically it wasn't good, you got listened to. If your feedback was "but teh LOAR!" you got ignored. [/QUOTE]
