I'm a little skeptical of a lot of these. I mean, just because a player suggested them at some point doesn't necessarily mean that was why it was implemented. I know that the devs say that they take player suggestions, but I sure would feel a lot better if these were cited as to where the player suggestion to developer implementation link actually existed. --TonyV 13:19, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

The big problem is that except for very recent suggestions, they're all deleted by forum purges. While it's certainly possible that a number of these are incorrect, or that they were features already being worked on when a player suggested them, the only way to know is to ask the devs outright, and they may not even know themselves.
I think the best course of action is to use common sense to what's plausible, perhaps combined with a disclaimer at the top about how accurate the list can possibly be. --Fleeting Whisper 03:08, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
