How about a post that goes and thanks the players for their patience about lack of information or how about one that goes and states what the overseas development is. I highly doubt that's against anything, unless if foreign game companies have changed their policies since I left the hosting industry. Lack of information causes the community to basically cease caring and feel completely ignored. They finally give information after 6 months of silence and a reasonable person would be cautious to accept such information so readily, hence why I'm so critical on Aeria. I've talked with the people I know from the initial Alpha tests (roughly 40-60) and about 70% of them that have responded to anything I've sent to them have basically said "Who cares" regarding it.

I've put a section in bold to explain to you that yes, Aeria really can not say much at all about overseas development for 2 reasons:
1. There hasn't been much development, besides what dedicated players have already brought up.
2. Cykan is very secretive in order to keep their game from having ideas stolen, thus they do not allow Aeria to post any huge updates, or have not as of yet.
Actually we've asked before for a post like that. Time and time again we got the response that they could not give any information on overseas development.
I think you don't quite understand the developers situation nor Aeria's situation. Not even the Korean publisher that Cykan Enterianment is with has given an overly huge development on the game just yet, if you expect Aeria to be able to, that is pretty insane. Cykan is very secretive with good cause. Aeria's under a leash in terms of news, even now we didn't get news about the development of the game, just that we'll have a testing phase soon.
I still talk to the people I've played alpha with (250+ peeps counting guild members/friends/new found friends), and they've eagerly awaited any sort of news. Now if only 70% of 40-60 people said who cares, that's not a lot considering people don't read/understand the situation at all/are naturally impatient. I know I'd be severely disappointed if for the last few months all the status reports said, "Oh thank you dear players, we have no news yet, but there is development overseas that we can not talk about, be prepared for next months status report! It'll be the same exact thing guys!".
Take a step back. Try to understand Aeria's situation. Be glad you got any sort of news/events at this time. It still surprises me quite a lot that we're having any sort of events and news this early.
