[QUOTE="DA5ID, post: 200156, member: 4693"] I am a member of the zen forum an I have "poked around" the barnstorm forum and they are just not as lively as our TPA forum. The zen and barnstorm official forums have dedicated community mangers like Barbiebobomb that chime in almost every time and answers question or passes on concerns to the dev team. This is nice but there is barely any meaningful discussion amongst the members in those forums. It the difference between have a heart to heart in-depth dialog with others or just saying "how's it.going?" In passing and not expecting a reply. Both zen and barnstorm have better dialog here than on their official sites IMHO. Zacc and color monkey have no official homes because they weren't big enough to support something like that. I hope color monkey is busy on their next table(s) and working on some of our suggestions (nudge and icade support) haven't heard from them in a spell. And zacc did blow up after the android port, before that it was a handful of dedicated iOS members that worked hard to support and improve the game. The beautiful thing about that was that our voices were heard and our suggestions and feedback was actually implemented and almost immediately. I think we can take a little bit of credit in getting zacc where it is today - but I think the fervor will die down a bit when the zacc collection is finished (unless they start another collection). I came a little late to the TPA forum (lurked for a year or so before I officially joined) so I don't know the tone of the forums from the beginning but I am guessing the forums relationship with farsight started with a honeymoon phase and now it is in the old married couple phase. There has definitely been some frustration and negativity that has caused a disruption of communication between farsight and fans. That would def be something to work on moving forward - is anyone a licensed forum marriage counselor? [/QUOTE]
