Shadow Temptress, I apologize for not meeting your expectations in regards to forum post responses.
Please keep in mind that the shard is not our full time real life (RL) job, but rather something we do for fun. RL responsibilities and obligations may keep us away from the shard at times, and force us to choose where we allocate our time (addressing issues on the shard directly, or responding to forum posts, for example) when we do have time for shard things. Rest assured both Falkor and I read
each and every post made on the forums. Speaking for myself, weekdays are often so booked that I am forced to wait for the weekend to look a the shard website and read the posts. But they are read!
Once read, there is a process. We have to consider whether the idea would add value to the shard or not. If it would, is it within our abilities to code? How many other systems already in place on the shard would it affect? Will those systems also need modification? Are there any unintended consequences we aren't considering? If we do proceed with an idea, it needs to be coded, then tested on a test copy of the shard. All these things take a considerable investment of time just to figure out, determining if it is possible
and practical.
We ask for your patience during the process.
Ghost
