Luthier...The Council of Stellar Management....

[CharveL]

Again, it doesn't sound like a 'chain of command' type thing, more of a side group that has access to a subforum where the devs can get a quicker collate of bugs without wasting time slogging through the majority useless posts in between.

Don't worry, nobody would be lording over anybody or firing off orders or keeping the devs from listening directly to you. Neither would the 'appointees' be selective as to what's important or not but merely a conduit to filter information. I wonder why everyone sees an idea like this and instantly overreacts like it's going to turn into an episode of Survivor: Cliffs of Dover where there's got to be some pecking order and they are at the bottom or something.

Whether it's actually useful or needed the devs could decide and personally I don't think it will be all that necessary until the current critical workload gets done and they can start rooting out the minor issues.

It's not hard to read through. For us.

But I'd say the dev's time would be better spent NOT having to scan through pages after pages of repeated bugs and all the paragraphs of discussion text around them. Bugs could be reported with a simple system of posting and the dev's could ask for clarification or reproduce-ability through them for us.

You never know, they prob already got something set up, they just dont tell whos watching the threads so that we dont hound them lol, prob laughing at this thread

Exactly what I think.

You really don't actually believe that Luthier is reading through the forum in the search of bug reports, do you? And I prefer somebody with good knowledge about the team, the work load, the REAL priorities for the game development (unequal to player priorities) and the possibilities of the game engine to read and filter out the necessary information than some self declared speakers.

Na theres no way lol, this is a good way to start a thread though:

Exactly! No need for a council of stellar pigs!

Besides, I guess the mods can help out the devs for consolidating threads, move/copy posts/threads whatever.

I think, "The Council of Eternal Virgins" has a better ring to it. Also more realistic.

That and sooooo much more my good friend!



BOOBIES!!!!

Somebody wants to be part of a special elite of users. Thanks, but let's give that a big fat miss.

I agree with this entirely. But only if I have complete authority to ruthlessly lead alone.

I hereby declare that feedback is more efficient channeled through me, and that you have 30 days to all comply. Honor me with your silence as your first act of loyalty.

Gentlemen, do we want chaos? Do we want pandemonium that confuses us all? No, and I represent a better way forward. A clear and concise way in which the community can speak through me, and me alone.

Yes, I am a dictator of sorts, but you will fine me a wise and just benefactor. Together we shall do great things, and our first act, the palace you shall all build for me, will be a great tribute to our collective efforts!

I declare the first new forum rule be added: 'All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.'



PS It's not a bad idea Mr H, but sometimes in life it's easier to ask for forgiveness rather than permission - perhaps just sum up some common points and present them?
