    They have a suggestion box because (this is what i think) they don't want to seem like jerks?

    that being said, i will now post a new thread in this box
    Dang!...I just lost my train of thought...

    I've actually seen ideas from the suggestion box implemented ingame. It looks like no one cares because GMs don't post on Suggestion Box threads, but I asked spoons about that once and he said that he doesn't post in suggestions because if he says it's a good idea people will expect it to be in the next patch. But they are read.

    Have you looked at the sticky at the top of the page? Because quite a few are actually in-game now. People just tend to demand outlandish things here, or don't flesh out ideas, so there's really no chance to implement them in game. Try to be pragmatic about your approach when looking, and PWI has actually put more in from player suggestion than most F2P games ever will.

    Venomancers are Female. Barbarians are male. It will forever be this way. So suck it up and deal with it already.

    ideas have been implemented before i heard. as an above poster pointed out ppl tend to suggest big things (me included at one point) that can't be added to the game. things like coding and what not needs to be put into account when an idea is added. if you post a suggestion that goes well with the current system they have set up now, then there is a chance it can be added. however most people would suggests something that would just be too hard to code, or would require coding ib several other areas in order for the idea to work. then there are the blanceing issues for those ideas.

    if players ideas are to be added into the game then you can't expect it to be added in the next patch it may take months or even years to get it done, after all PW does have it's own plan to follow,. they can't very well drop that and just work on every suggestion players make.

    Many ideaz from the forumz have been implemented in the game, and really, these GM's are not jerkz and they are not just trying to cover this up with this forum.... If you really look through the forumz and read sum of the suggestions, then you look at the game, you'll see some of these suggestionz. When you think about it, the playerz help make this game.... duh
