5 people left this forum last week alone. Thats 5 players this game cant afford to loose.
I think those players left because of how they are treated on this forum.

it's 5 forum members. i know at least 3 people who fly clod who never post on forums, another 2-3 who occasionally fly and don't post.

if people are going to flounce after weeks of negativity then i'd say, on balance, the forum will probably be a better place. they aren't going all geek-rage on the forum about known issues that (i trust) the developers are working on, and people aren't replying to them angrily rather than assisting other posters with genuine, user-solvable problems and advice.
