Three Reasons Creators Should Never Read Their Forums

pretty neat read.

EDIT: After thinking about it, there is one thing I have to say.

All the devs should read for the fact that you might find a gem of a suggestion, or a gem of a comment on the game. However, they should go about it like the old saying, 'take it like a grain of salt.' I'm sure the dev's know there are just idiots that love to flame, because they're just not tethering the game to specific needs of one person or a small group. However, even some of those flames come with a good gem of a suggestion. As a dev from a for-profit game, I don't think they care at all. They probably look at it like, 'oh, so we lost another subscriber, cuz we didn't cater to him... but what do we care, we gained 20 more subscribers in his place. Look at mah monAy!'
