Why bother? Why not just say "meh, fk this!" and walk away? Because you like the game. Because you like the sim. Because you want to fly it, notice a flaw, look up some evidence that shows some values are off, go to the forums to see if it could be fixed.... BAM! Banned!
This to me looks like: -Why you stalled? -Because I got scared of the ground coming up and pulled harder.
If you like the game and you want a flaw you think you saw corrected and you have "some proof" you need also to modulate your approach. These are the rules. And almost like in life... they are not clear... they are interpret-able, mostly by the "law giver". It is you who needs to adapt and not try to hide/shield behind some idealist customer service.

This kind of interpretation only gives you head aches and bad feelings.

Yea but he also is very chill about it.

You have the recipe correct only at the end you interpret it wrong I think. Is not like ED is some sort of religion and no matter what you say they will reject "Evolution". They just tell you your proof is not good enough. What if you are wrong several times in a row? Is it really impossible?
Turn the problem upside down. What is your bug actually? Is it a small bug or a conspiracy trail? Say that bug with A-10C engines not pulling all the percents at some points. What is that bug? A conspiracy of ED to degrade A-10C legacy? Imho that would be ridiculous so if I see them stubborn about that issue then maybe either they have a secret source or a better source or they have a contract with USAF to make A-10c a bit... weaker for others eyes. IN this case they will not move one inch and they will push hard back.

If Snoopy and Noodle were Yo-Yo's friends I am sure their real life experience would count a bit more. Not being in that case I think you can agree they will have harder time convincing with just that.

No... I simply have a contract that say he is covering only the engine and gearbox and not the wiring of the ventilation fan engine. True story I don't like battles where is clear as day I will lose.

They are different... from each other .

Now imagine you are selling icecream online to hundred of thousands of people. Some like to trash your store...some just complain... put together they will add to some good some that will fill you quite a few days to tackle the "smile approach". If not enough... Try imagine yo are selling that icecream online in Russia also...

Sounds like deadlines to me!
As you can see... it is your choice to translate "we plan" and "is still on track" with "Sure Deadline"
