Monthly or so Dev Q&A

Bobfather · 09-24-2021, 08:35 PM

What if a dev came on once a month and answered questions? There could be a forum dedicated to the questions and/or they could scan the posts. They can pick which to answer. They can do it by posting the answers or better yet live if that is an option. Since a lot of the questions may be similar one answer should suffice for those.

They do already come on here and answer questions in the forum. It's a decent idea, but it creates more work for them. I'd rather they spend their time on the game and browse the forums occasionally or have one of the mods alert them to any thread they may want to answer.

They show up when there's a question users can't answer. It works and is more efficient than scheduled appearances.

OK, I rarity in the forums, good points all. Another suggestion is an Icon to the left of the Thread showing a dev has made a post within that thread?
