Well, that's a terrific suggestion, but alas, the testers have also mentioned in this very forum many, many times that their requests, observations and reports go completely unchecked with the dev team and fall upon deaf ears. Reports get sent in and things don't get fixed. This is not just a few people coming here to get upset with a couple bugs, this is a failed system that many are tired of that serves them very little.Now, if we were talking about some cheeseball app for 99 cents that had issues, I certainly wouldn't waste my time typing this right now and would simply move on to a better product. However, as we know very well, the complete Pinball Arcade experience will run hundreds of dollars - tenfold more than any other game in its class, and many have gone that route to be completely disappointed with a lack of response...or even a mere explanation. You cannot fault or expect their 'investors' (for lack of a better word) to be enthralled with the way things are being handled.There is a staggering list of issues from the new 2.0 version alone, not to mention long term bugs that simply have not been addressed yet over the course of time. Checking the forums will adequately demonstrate this point rather easily. The fact that no word trickles down to those who have forked out so much money and given their complete support in trade of deafening silence is not a practice I consider to be ethical or even logical. Let's put the ball in the proper court since the customers have withstood quite enough already with all that has and hasn't transpired.
