Idea for Friday Updates

[BadAim]

Oleg usually only stays a few hours, answers a few of the intelligible questions and runs like hell as soon as things start to break down. The rest of the thread, once Oleg leaves can then be ignored. Simple enough. You can also search for Oleg's replies only and save even more time.

That's what I've started doing, the threads are massive.

I like the general idea of this thread, if a workable solution could be found - but I doubt it can. If only questions were permitted, users would make up a random question just so they could post their comment. I am amazed that Oleg has the time to read through some of the rubbish though.

In my opinion, I think that Oleg does read each and every post. He also reads other threads that he finds interesting, or in error. In the end though, he will only answer a question that he feel's deserves an answer, and is not a secret and can be told.

+1 I agree

However, if there was an easier way for Oleg to read the questions, it would save him having to go through a lot of OT posts or posts that are still helpful, but can't be answered really


One person's meat is another's poison, so I think Ruubbish was a bit harsh of me to say (and extremely hypocritical)

Oleg and Luthier have discussions on the first day of release of updates.

It is very rare to have discussions with either of them after the first day.

The first day is important... after that it's discussion among forum members.

I don't think you need any set-in-stone styles for responding.

Just have discussions, and realize everyone is due respect.

I will of course accept your decision nearmiss. I think that the discussion with oleg and luthier continues if they fell there are suitable questions or if they have the time. I think the pattern is that if an update shows some new features Oleg will answer questions for a few days. Either way, maybe a topic solely for questions would be a good idea? Oleg doesnt have to answer the questions, but it could be useful.

The problem is, there will always be some people who don't understand this point.
