2) There are a number of adventures which do not have map galleries. Would it be possible to get them released in Gm and player versions as well??
3) Would it be possible to make the editorial calendar more navigable?? by that I mean have some sort of previous/next month set of links.
4) Some people are disappointed at the lack of previews for Divine Power.
5) Many people are discouraged by the amount of ink required to print the digital magazines. Most specifically there are calls to have the graphical borders at the tops of the pages removed - or otherwise have a "printer friendly" version of the magazines. This has been a recurring request that pops up from time to time ever since the magazines went digital.
6) The "transitional" issues of Dragon and Dungeon - between the end of Paizo's publishing and before 4E digital mags really came into their own were never compiled into final issues, despite several promises from WotC staff that they WOULD be made into full issues (instead of a gaggle of articles strewn somewhat haphazardly about the site). While these articles are less-referenced now, it would be an amazing show of good faith to the community to go back and give these issues the cleanup they were originally promised.
7) When DnDInsider.com was updated and the Visualizer, Game Table, and Dungeon builder links were taken off, the link to the D&DI News was also taken off the front page. It would be nice to have that clear link to the current D&Di news, so the average user coming to DnDInsider.com can find the current news.
8) In the character sheet print-out, would it be possible to also have an option for a stripped-down power sheet checklist (as opposed to power cards). http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?t=1168897
9) Some people have asked that the monsters from the April Fools adventure be added into the compendium.
The Purpose of this report is to inform Community Management and the Brand Teams about the mood(s) of the Community on various topics. This is not to imply that Community Management does not read the forums, because they do. However they also requested that VCLs provide these reports in order to provide an outside perspective.
It is important to note that even if the Community, the News Guides and I all feel that an item is important and needs to be acted upon immediately, WotC may have different priorities. These reports are not intended to be "honey-do" lists for WotC, nor is a lack of response by WotC towards any of the topics on these reports an indication that WotC has read and dismissed (or even worse, is ignoring) the concerns of the community. It simply means that they have other items that have higher priorities, or are more urgent for WotC to deal with.
1) Would it be possible to get a version number or something like that in the character builder? So that people can look at it and, if it is on a computer that they do not normally connect to the 'net, know when the program was updated.
There is a build number available in the Preferences screen (March build is Build 195803).
Thanks!!
Dear WotC,
Please let me know when you would like to sell me products again. You almost convinced me with D&D Insider but the account cancelling hassles just turned me. I'd love to buy some 3.5 pdfs but they are priced at full retail which is higher than you pay for the physical book from amazon. Of course that was before you discontinued pdfs. Even before that I searched for Orcs of Thar, Diablo II and Ghostwalk only to be disappointed with nothing. In case you think I only liked 3.5 and earlier, Adventurer's Vault can be found on my wish list.
I do know that I could find the pdfs online but I'd rather get a legal copy. Instead I think I'll buy a Goodman Games product or two.
For new issues I like to express my displeasure at dropping pdf sales from drivethrurpg.com and other sites. I now this isn't a D&D Insider issue entirely but you are seem to be pretty good at catching their attention. Here is my response from another thread:

I strongly recommend you submit that feedback directly - via customer service. (http://www.wizards.com/customerservice).
While it may very well make it into our weekly report - we're only "one voice".
People who feel strongly at all about this issue should make each of their own voices heard.

I did that as well.

not just divine power. divine content overall. this month marks the first issue where there actually is something in dragon relevant to a divine class AT ALL. (and it's not much)

Oh don't exagerate. Divine classes have certainly gotten the short end of the stick so far, but they have been getting some material. I've counted four paragon paths, 8 powers, two feats, and one epic destiny(although this one is for the paladin, fighter, swordmage, etc). It is less than martial and arcane, but it isn't non-existent.
Oh don't exagerate.
obviously, wotc only reacts to exaggerations. so i'm just doing what i need to do to get what i need.
what was published is pretty close to non.existent - especially if you play a paladin.

Well paladins have gotten more than invokers to date....sadly I think avengers have gotten more then paladins though.:P
