Forums vs In-Game

potential subscribers may or may not become subscribers. We only want info from those who have played the game and experienced the features first hand, for only they can tell us what they like and don't like about the current system.

Everyone else can always give their ideas in the other section and they will be listened to and considered.

I was a part of the closed DF beta which was composed of 200 or so members for 4-5 months before open beta and the problems I saw were polarized opinions that garnered support and were not indicative of the majority of the community opinion outside of closed beta thus leading to a false representation for the devs.
I would hate to see the same problems arise.
