Your reply, it's why people, including myself, no longer can take you seriously.
If i didn't know better, i'd think you're actually deliberately trying to slowly strangle the community to death. Because every change i see so far, seems to head in that direction. This one, is no exception.
You could have solved the manpower issue, in the devteam, by simply decreeing that "If you want a change to lore, you must learn to mod disco and contribute the changes you want. These changes will still be subject to vetting, quality control and a vote from the devteam"
you could have done that. That alone would have dropped the suggestion rate, and those few who remains steadfast, would litterally become developer assistants FOR YOU.
You'd solve both YOUR and the communities issue at once.
