Discovery writing itself into a corner: Community supported lore re-roll

[Oldum]

The current dev team is trying to fix the trash implemented by the 2011-2013 dev team. Unfortunately it is no easy task when understaffed and facing people crying 24/7 instead of helping. We could have a patch out every two week with either a new ship, system modifications related to recent events or whatever but the fact there is not enough people willing (and capable and not jerks) to do the necessary edits render this impossible.

I would like to add to this that if we push out a patch every two weeks with a few minor things in it, we also get bombarded by a thousand different people screaming about why their content wasn't included IMMEDIATELY. Personally I let that run right off my back, it doesn't bother me. But not everyone is as capable of turning themselves to stone.

Surely though if you release changelogs and give dates on when certain pieces of content will be added, people won't get as flustered?

There are good points on both side of the fence, so it's a bit hard to argue with either one of them, however, a bit of light on what is in the making, an "In Development" section on the forums would probably calm people down a bit, as they would see that things are being made and know what to expect.
I'm not saying devs should tell every small part of the lore changes, cause that would spoil much, but some technical stuff, maybe some points about what content is planned to be added in ( stations, ships, whatever ) and a few "guidelines" of what's comming ... I don't know, I'm just throwing my ideas here.
