So...Im a little upset. Here I am, offering suggestions to the staff with specific admins in mind, but Im ignored. This isnt the first time that I have been ignored outright and its starting to get to me. I can honestly say that I know what Im doing when it comes to servers and plugins and how to run things smoothly yet Im always overlooked. Chances are this thread will be too and it wouldnt surprise me. Tonight, I attempted to bring new plugins to the staff that reduce lag and make server performance better in the end but overlooked. I asked repeatedly other people in the chat that were glancing at their Mumble chats to get ahold of another so I can address things but to no avail...I have watched many-a-time me ask for something or help of some sort and ignored as the person behind me by a few minutes gets the help they want. Now, Im not expecting favoritism, because thats not what I want. What I do want is to be able to give input with people actually listening, not just me throwing text in the wind (so to speak). Take yesterday for example (this could just be my being upset that interpreted this), Knight asked what we would like to see spawn have that would make people want to stay. I offered several points of interest and only one was addressed, the one that might take the longest but offer more diversity. Meanwhile, no offense to Phen or Knight (just voicing my bullshit [not that I actually have a voice]), Knight addressed both of Phen's ideas. Phen suggested to put nav signs in spawn, while tis a good idea, it would work better with a more dynamic system of market. But who cares about that....Nevertheless, all of my input and ideas are overlooked/shot down by all of the staff (something I have never seen on any other server, to be honest) and Im getting tired of it...

I feel you NK. But I think the key to getting them to see the idea is perseverance. Do you know how many times I've thrown that idea of town navigation into their faces? On a Large Scale (Forums, talking to staff directly)=4 On a Small Scale (Yelling in chat, Writing a book, making a witty joke that was meant to be a subtle hint)=12
I'm sure the staff reads the comments and don't just blow them off. I honestly believe they sit there and think about them for a while and then when they forward the idea to Neon, something else bigger catches their eye. Is it A.D.D? Probably not. But, the staff is still busy as hell doing what they feel comfortable doing. And getting suggestions from countless people (20 per week) might be overwhelming.
Oh and Knight, Tilt told me you caved in to her demands. We need to talk.

I don't think your ideas are being overlooked, but I do agree with Phen when he says that they're probably sitting there contemplating over the idea. They probably have ideas of their own in their heads, along with other sources of stress can make them zone out. I'm not saying this is always the case though, I too have been ignored every now and then. On 5 seperate days, I asked Knight 5 times " Are spaces allowed when you buy a nickname?", each without an answer. It only takes Steven 1 time to answer though, maybe Knight just has a short attention span. (Irrevelant: I lost the game...) And on top of the 20(approx. according to phen) suggestions that come in every week, I suddenly had a spark in the idea suggestion department and have been pitching ideas every day. And so while there are constantly so many ideas coming at their face, they as a team have to decide which ones to implement and which ones to throw in the can. And even then, they have to execute the ideas, which they don't have the time or manpower(at least when they're not absorbed into Guild Wars 2).
And to the admins & Neon... if y'all are too absorbed into GW2, I can be the manpower to make the ideas(nav system, etc.) into reality, seeing as I have too much time on my hands...

Its happened since the start of the server build before 1.3 launch....I gave ideas that FIX the things that happened in spawn. Things that could make walls even 100% and other little things that I dont care to remember. Ive offered at least a hundred ideas of my own (most of them repeating) because they make things flow better...
