So you sat us in a business meeting, showed us pie charts and bar graphs of things going on in the industry and then went into the psychology about the "democracy" that supposedly happens with the communication. I agree completely with how Schism 93 puts it here.
This community is definitely a good one compared to many many out there, but arguing with the internet and feeding trolls is sadly part of modern internet life, but it can easily be avoided and people may cry that Eric and Nathan aren't listening but we all know that's a load of garbage. I have lurked around these forums since the very early days of Malifaux and it's very easy to see how hard Nathan and Eric pour their blood, sweat and tears into Wyrd and even come to the conclusion that they are masochists for the insane amount of work they create for themselves before/during/after Gencon time.
It was a rollercoaster of a post Panda, I liked how it ended on a nice sentiment hehe. Was a decent, although confusing read to kill time here at work.
