I think it would be better if Achat provided their own News Letter or to let the Moderators update members.I do not think it's such a good idea for members to send in some kind of protest or inundate them with requests. They may be busy with other things or improving the game and it may hinder them.They have already released lots of changes and may have other things in the pipeline. They should keep us informed by the Moderators or their own information release.I would much prefer them to concentrate on more pose releases for our gay and transgender friends in particular FF & MM poses.

I'm quite sure that more people than just the Moderators may want to contribute to the Newsletter, as they have voices and opinions too. Also, maybe the Mods have lots on their plate as it is and may not want to add additional to their already numerous duties. I can assume that making sure all runs smoothly and respectfully in the forum HAS to be time consuming . To assume that this should be a task solely for them would be unfair to our already inundated Mods AND the Members of Achat.Also Stone, this is not a protest by any means. This is an idea that I have seen be implemented in other games that not only could attract more members to AChat but also keep the long time users, and new users alike informed and "in the loop" as to what is happening with the Client. It enhances the customer experience as we have alluded to in previous posts, and develops a strong line of communication from the Developers to their members. I am sure that I am not the only Member that wonders what Achat is using my monthly membership dues for, or wonders what the next update will be and even if it will be something asked for and worthwhile. A lot of the changes that Achat has implemented over the past couple years started out this way, as an Idea, a Poll, a discussion on a thread. To suggest one more, and draft a letter outlining WHY we (Members) believe this would be a good idea is not being unreasonable. The letter being PM'd to Achat management is simply the way many members can show their individual support for the idea, to allow their voices to be heard. No one could ever be REQUIRED to do it because NOT EVERYONE will agree with it. As far as it hindering them, I hardly see how communicating with the people who form your bread and butter so to speak could be a hindrance. In order to use forum you must be a premium (and assuming) a paying member, correct? So therefore, I would expect any business entity that provides a service (here, the Achat client itself) to accept and thrive off of any feedback that its Members provide, as we the members are what makes Achat continue to function. If we were to remain quiet on things that we are passionate about and want to see, where would the A team draw their ideas from ? How could Achat grow and thrive? How could it ever get better? Yes I definitely understand that it may take time to be implemented, that is a given, but as the famous quote goes, "A Closed Mouth Doesn't Get Fed." In regard to the addition of poses for the gay & transgender population of Achat users, I'm all for that. It is your and anyone else's right to request these things to be added. I would definitely encourage you to continue pressing for those additions and I believe there is even a thread about that in the forum, and I wholeheartedly wish you luck with trying to press for those changes you would wish to see. Kisses & Hugs,Dee

Honestly speaking, submerging AChat team with mail that ask for newsletter can be funny to do, but not sure it wuill sort the effect. and let me add this: newsletter mustn't be for every single update of poses or clothes we have but of sonstantial update of the program, as new features like common room, the chat sistem or, why not!, a complete update of AChat as program. Of course it's needed we mods of the forum can be informed of details a luittle more then the users, so we can answer to the question that will follow, as usual happen.Now tell me.....did you agree or not on my line!?
