While I understand Marek's frustration, to ignore all fan input is just as bad as trying to please them all. Perhaps there is only a 1% worthwhile contribution in all the verbiage of a forum, but that 1% may make the difference between creating a good game and a great one. One needs to be able to sort the wheat from the chaff, so to speak, and see the good ideas that are expressed. This may be hard to do when some of it is disguised in hackerese or gross misspellings and grammar potholes. Never-the-less, it should be mined for good insights into gameplay and user interface, as well as the direction a game may head.

Oh, and another thing - it probably isn't a good thing to tell your fans that you intend to ignore their posts - this doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the developers.
