All I gotta say is:

LISTEN TO YOUR COMMUNITY

I am going to use MMOs as an example, so this may be a little long winded buuuut...

Let's look at WoW and FFXIV both MMOs, one once considered great, the other just great.

Now WoW has more subscribers than XIV, yet its community is toxic as fuck, subscribers leave in the millions every month and the general feel, the staff do not see to care and the entire experience is somewhat...negative.

XIV on the other hand is younger, is gaining more subs everyday, the community is great, we get more content and it is an overall better experience.

And do you know why? The people that work on the game listen to the players. Hell, they are still apologising for the abysmal mess of the original XIV. The recent event for the 2 year anniversary just shows how much passion everybody has.

XIVs staff are there to make the best game they can, by listening, accepting and adapting to feedback and criticism whereas in WoW they care only for money. (I mean, hello. BS Bringing the Legion back? Really? :P)

So Harold, just listen to your people in this glorious wiki, else you will end up eventually driving them away.

We do not want that, do we?
