Maybe you are right and CloD team is not as good as RoF team. This does not change Jason's point that constant negativity of some part of community is harmful to a project.

If they say they going to do something...THEY DO IT.
But most of all they FIX things and they stay fixed.
Each patch that is released has made progress and improved the sim.
ROF works.

Even this perfect team which you describe could hardly handle the damage caused by the malcontents over recent 2+ years according to Jason. All this did not help them.
If you think the CloD team is not this good why would you want to make even more damage to it?
The team needs us to remind them about key issues which they can forget (like COOP one) because they may be overwhelmed with the challenges they are facing from time to time. But I am sure that this should be done in a rational business-like manner to be heard and to be of any use. Negative emotions cause only negative reaction as we can see even in Jason's posts.
Let's agree with you that CloD devs are not as good as RoF devs that you try to prove in your post. OK. Does it make you happy? Would it inspire anyone here to make fixes quicker, to work extra hours, to skip vacations to get results quicker?
PS. 777 are open for discussion because they are the publisher and Jason is the Biggest Boss of the publisher. For MG publishers are 1C in Russia and UBI in other countries. Luthier is not the Big Boss of the publisher and has non-disclosure agreements with both of them. No one would benefit if he breaks one and gets fired.
He may also think that it is UBI responsibility to answer your questions because UBI's PR people are paid for this. It case of 777 Jason is paid for this and community liaison is a part of his job-description unlike Luthier's one. You may not like it and seek revenge on these forums but this is how business is done. Marketing and communication budgets are spent by publishers not by developers. If you are angry talk to UBI because they are your publisher, you paid them and they got your money. If you want to support the developer you can do it on this forum (as it belongs to developer, not to UBI).
