i.e. We never got replies back from first set of questions, since it was sent to the wrong person. Not that the existence of the semi-mystical "right person" has been confirmed, as of yet.

The existence of this sub-forum is still misleading. At least, lock it until DiV can actually deliver questions with assurance of reply.
Don't think so? Then, post the replies to the first (and only?) set of questions sent. =b

Actually we did get a response to the first set of questions we submitted.

You must have missed it.

SquareEnix replies to February's "Ask SquareEnix" questions.

I see no reason to lock it, on the other hand some REAL answers from SE would be rather nice.

Though the above link does get a laugh from me, I'm rather irritated that all of SE's, "listen to the voices of the peoples" speech has not happened at all.

I don't expect SE employees to be monitoring every single forum, but for crying out loud we're one of the six premier community sites, would it kill them to provide some feedback at least?

That would be highly entertaining.

Why not lock the actual thread with the questions and open a thread for proposed questions to SE. Then add a poll or something to each question and the community gets to vote as to weather or not the question gets asked?

I've noticed a number of people just like to spam this forum with useless questions or phrase thier suggestion as a question and just spam it up here. Could be solved if the only people allowed to post here were the Super Moderators and they could pull questions that have a winning count from the Question Disscussion thread.

Just a suggestion.

>_> [GM]Dave response is not S-E response. Nice try.

Seriously, at least acknowledge that there's no question sent to S-E and no hope of response. Or, show proof otherwise.

neighbortaru · 10-24-2007, 05:23 PM

iirc, the former was indeed sent. as for the latter...

IfritnoItazura · 10-24-2007, 05:41 PM

Don't think one time sending an e-mail to the wrong people who aren't going to answer the those questions counts for anything, but you're entitled to your interpretation.

I mean, I can sent questions like those posted here to S-E on its web forms. That's be just about as useful as posting questions to S-E here.

* * *

It's dishonest to have this sub-forum here, misleading people into thinking S-E would answer the questions here because they are posted here.

Of course, if anyone posting here thinking S-E would answer it, it'd be someone fairly dense in the head or new to the site. Don't really care about the dense people, but it's up to the admin/moderator team on whether to fool the newbies or not.

*shrug* Just recommending being more honest/nicer...

Murphie · 10-24-2007, 07:19 PM

I don't even know how I became a part of this conversation. ><;

I see both sides, btw. Itazura has a valid point, but on the other hand, I'm not so sure it's that big a deal.

Honestly, given the fact that hardly anyone actually asks INTERESTING QUESTIONS anymore, if they even bother ASKING AT ALL, this forum is more of a 'rant' forum. But honestly, compared to actually having a rant forum, this is fine.

Which begs the question: "Why is this forum's Question/Suggestion sub forum so desolate?"

This isn't the only one, but others seem to be thriving.
