Make Coalition Indie ID more better

[Mímir]

Maybe you should be patient? Devs are working on some stuff, then you come here and demand some changes. Devs have to discuss and stop working, in same time you go and ask "When are we going to get Omicron Update? Any updates?" This is just minor/low priority thing right now I guess.

In case you didn't see, nobody was "demanding changes". We were proposing various things in a discussion thread and would like to get some feedback on the process, as it has been quite some time now. As in "I'd like to know too". Note: No-one said "I want this ID now!"

I'm inclined to go with JayDee, that it never has been or will be discussed, but I simply don't know. So for the sake of 14 pages of pros and cons, for the sake of avoiding more discussion and to avoid spending a lot of dev's time, a simple "We're working on it" or "Not gonna fly, and here's why" would work wonders. Maybe it isn't even in the devs' department, maybe it's the official faction that is stalling. Maybe no one in the right places are pushing for a fix. I don't know. I would like to know.

If we let this thread die and resurrect it in two months when we still haven't received any feedback, it will probably even get locked, and someone might get punished for opening a new one with the same purpose as this one. Your text is not at all useful, except if it is to be understood in the way that you hold knowledge that this has actually been discussed and is a priority, although a low one?

Someone could always make a player request tbh, to at least put it on the staff schedule. Might be best to inform the official faction first however.

It's such an archaic way of going about things. Why all the secrecy, why all the institutions? If we have a discussion here in this thread, players can voice their opinions openly in their capacity as devs, admins, faction leaders and regular members. Things can be discussed thoroughly and in the open, and everyone will know who wants what and why. How would I even know how my secret player request will be dealt with and by whom? Make sure I contact one of the admins that I know "is on my side" via Skype first? Transparency will just save so much time for everyone as well as alleviate the high level of misinformation and preferential treatment that goes around. In this particular case, no one would have needed to post in this thread if we all knew where the suggestion is in the process or if it is not being worked on/discussed at all.
