Like selling in the market. How all of your goods are in one storage unit and every time you sell something you have to by pass all the stuff you dont want to sell to get to the stuff that you do want to sell. It takes me nearly a half hour to go through and sell all my finished products, without selling stuff I didnt want to sell. Or how when your in the market selling you get 100 requests for work. Or if you are in there to hire there is no way to tell who is there just selling, who is there to hire, and who is there looking for work (if they are not begging). And I come across a room multiple times a day where are just not talking. It doesnt take long to become annoyed by some of this stuff. And these are things that the devs would have caught if they played the game like we do.

Hmmmmm - excellent idea !! May all the devs be made to actually sit and PLAY the game for a week as we do, then get back into their developing. As you say, I'll bet we'd see some major, more practical changes very quickly.
However, this should already be happening because as far as I know the moderators are players as well ..... so assuming they are passing the problems on to the devs ..... why are the fixes not happening? I guess the devs don't communicate with them either. I sooooooo wish they would stop being quite so fixated with making more garish facilities and get back to some of the basics again.
Oh well, I guess we should all be thankful for the moment that the wretched little gift reminding gnome has taken a far lower profile than before ..... though I find it hard to be grateful after it took months of pleading to get rid of his way too high profile. My feeling is more like 'thanks, it's about time too!'
