Communication is the most vital thing in a community and it is what we lack the past few weeks.
I am giving Josh Davis as an example because this guy did a great job so far, responding to mulitple threads speaking with the people and keeping us informed that “They are watching.”
It is exactly what SPvP needs right now, we need a guy that can be the gate between the Devs and the Community.
While you guys are working on delivering a better game we won’t feel forgotten and alone because there will be someone there to respond back and you will have more time to work on your stuff.
It is a Win-Win.

Allie actually helps us a ton with that! She’s been really busy helping to set up PAX and assist CC/Sync with the logistics of getting here! Now that that stuff’s over, I bet you see her a lot more on the forums!
And Josh is also awesome! He’s going to be appearing with me on the next SOTG so we can double communicate with you guys!
Cheers!

Thank You and Colin for reading and answering all these topics today, I bet 3 of my fingers that these responses boosted the community’s moral than any stream/tournament of the past.
Keep up the good work and don’t ever get yourself down
(I guess it is quite late there since it is still morning here)
P.S. I can’t wait for the next SOTG.

What the community needs is a good game.
Communication is a nice perc and a courtesy, but IT WILL NOT MAKE A GAME.
Having more communication about what the devs goal is before they, for example, take months to make a badly enacted change, won’t help anything.
I know it sounds pessimistic… but it has been a year… and Anet has wrote out many, many goals that brought out hope to many people… and they have driven away the vast majority of their player base…
(especially after pax, so many big names left after that)
Obviously Grouch = quality, but… you first need to attract more people/people that left back to the game before hiring staff to communicate with them, else you’ll end up on communicating amongst yourselves.
dude is quitting the game, and you want to drag him back? lol poor xeph.
“hey guys, i feel it’s time i move on”
“NO, GET BACK HERE. WE HAVE JOBS FOR YOU!”
His love for the game, as well as constructive criticism and good ideas, would set the game in the right direction. The only reason he’s leaving is because of the poor communication on Anet’s part, and their complete and total lack of implementing any suggestions that the community puts forth.

Not to mention this threads get unfairly deleted.
those aren’t his words, that’s what you want it to sound like, though. like he’s some martyr, rather than just a guy that played a game for more hours than most people would deem reasonable, and now got tired and decided to go play something else.
Imagine that, I disliked you the first few times I saw you ^^
For all the above posts, half of the community is made out of communication and so far it was like “they don’t listen to us”… Other half is made by decisions and implementations.
If one of these two is bad, community will behave badly and people will start leaving..
There is no point in giving feedback if nobody listens and there is no point in making changes if nobody judges them.
