I find it simply mind boggling that they're going to now "consider" the positives and negatives as well as the points raised by people on these forums.
* These forums represent such a small number of the vote and let us be quite clear, are not representative of the intelligence amongst players - with a very varied degree of intelligence on both sides of this debate.
* They have had how many WEEKS to follow the points being raised on this forum (I have managed just fine as one person) and yet they now require time to discuss the issue? The vote has been so obviously decided for nearly a week now.
* They should have considered the "negatives" before even allowing a vote, which they obviously have done and yet they are still seeing a need for more discussions? The paying public has spoken, as have the non-paying. I've bought a membership in anticipation to these updates and frankly the delay tactics are nothing short of unreasonable.
If the reason was that they were working on the fine-tuning of the coding over the weekend and would have the updates starting from the 17th then fair enough - however they're only promising a public statement on the 17th, no action.
Pfffft!
