Development Discussion Board

I'm wondering why, each time an announcement is published there is so much "thank you" feedback :) Not that I'm knocking you guys for showing gratitude :D Cause we are trying to counter some of the, now consistant, bitching that goes on for every anouncement. OR It could be cause you have...
