Why the un-needed changes???

Why do these updates include generally un-asked for and defiantly un-needed changes to the user interface - there are so many bugs - HUGE lag problems - updates affecting the sale of objects adversely etc and so many thing that need FIXING for gods sake . And yet they updates continue to be mainly about un-needed "improvements". STOP already - make the updates for the next few months about FIXING ALL THE PROBLEMS not these stupid little "improvements" to supposedly make the game better - Before the flood gates were opened to all the underage and irresponsible who no longer have to provide any payment info this game has a few problems but was still very playable.
Now! It is a constant barrage of grievers and goofs and the every thing is so full of lag and its slow to crawling razz times it is shameful.
I know no linden will read this except possibly Torley and they don't give a flying f*@& either because they are probably making money hand over fist with all the exchange of commerce going on and the over doubling of the population in the last 2 months compared to the last 2 years has them all picking out new Mercedes or BMW's but I feel it important to rant my opinion and we all know they are taking away option too (no forums) because as long as they have money in the pocket then screw us players.
Sorry for the length.

Hey Glen--while it sounds really frustrating, a lot that was added was asked for. The whole, monolithic Groups system is because so many Resis asked for better social organization. In the Feature Voting Tool, there's oodles of proposals that were acted on because of community support.

On the Official Linden Blog, we've mentioned a lot that's been asked for! It's quite a weighty list.

However, "lag" and "bugs" certainly aren't desirable--we already know of quite a few post-1.12 problems and will be working on them diligently. You can help us help you if you find specific bugs, and send in bug reports with clear reproductions.

You may also be pleased to know our immediate development focus is on added stability and better performance. Less bugs, less lag.

Ranting doesn't help; all it does is add to the noise and I know you're better than that, so helping us to fix problems does help.
