There's a big fucking difference between what you're stating and what people expect.
1 - The question was getting answered by a GM, so for the GM staffing part of the equation we're already good to go...
2 - The GM's presumably have SOME MEANS to contact someone at Blizzard so they can ask an incredibly simple Yes or No question at least. Be it email, fax, smokesignals, telephone or fucking phonograph recordings.
No game is sanely run with the development staff in a fucking bubble of isolation from the rest of the company - it just doesn't work that way.
PS - When I bought my Dell, I did inquire about color options and they had all the answers available to them easily and distinctly, including some recommendations for 3rd party products to alter the coloration of the unit well. (From an Indian guy at that - don't ever fucking try to knock Dell's phone people, they kick some serious ass)
