..Also I want to acknowledge that when the original task of these 10 questions was started our then current arch correspondent was unavailable.. and I guess the task was laced with warnings the it would be a lengthy process and I apologize that I did not have that information to express that to you at the time that I was made Correspondent.. ...
Not your failure to apologize for. SOE should have given you all the details including those warnings up front. SOE failed to properly handle the correspondent transition in this respect by not communicating all the important info. to you.

ThunderHearts Intention of this Project was more or less a bonus to us all that He has taken on and is doing On His OWN time Not SOE time, working on them in his night and evening time. Though they are important to him to finish There are Development Issues that must maintain priority, and He would like to make sure that He Is readily available to explain any of his responses in an ongoing thread when he releases the answers..
If he's doing it in his own time of his own decision then that is relevant information. I expect a lot less for "side projects" than from official communication. When TH says something like "give me 10 questions" we can only assume its official SOE stuff cause thats his job being the voice of SOE here. So if he doesn't clarify what is and is not his own pet projects then we won't know and we'll assume its a SOE implemented deal. If we think SOE is pushing the project and it fails (in our eyes) then we'll blame SOE and rightfully so I think. But if we know its just TH's side / pet project then we'll be a lot more forgiving and just plain happy if we get responses cause we know he personally went the extra mile. I hope TH learns from this kind of thing. He should think about what people will assume about stuff and what people will expect. Did he think we'd all happyily sit around and wait a couple months for answers without any complaint? Or did he not think?
Agreed.. This is a side project.. I suggested to him that maybe in the future that instead of ten questions he should maybe do 1 or 2 .. questions at a time.. Another thing that alot of people need to realize too.. Is that this style of communications with the game players via correspondents is pretty Unique not many developers do this..
Oh .. And for the person that posted about the top 5.. that is not true.. in the correspondent comunications every profession has their own Top 5 threads.. and each one has had open communication on them.. Just because the red names dont post directly doesnt mean that there is no attention.. Look at the top ten questions that we have.. How many are being addressed in this next patch .. almost half..
