This is the problem - responding doesn't achieve anything much other than invite further criticism (not getting at you in particular - just making the general point).
I know that the constructive criticism from this long running post is taken seriously and the team are working hard to publish a magazine which can justify its position as the leading title in the GA market.
All comments, criticisms, and praise warmly received and passed on to the relevant people.
The magazine might not be what you want it to be but this doesn't mean that the comments are being ignored.
