I find the poll to be slightly bias as my stance on the matter is that Bungie is doing a bad job of communicating not so much listening. I believe they are listening, though I do not believe it to be a great job. On the same note I do not believe they are doing a terrible job at listening either.
Now there is a lot to be desired from this update, this is true, but I do not see this update as bad. We've got a lot more clear definitive answers from this update than we have, I daresay, almost all previous updates combined. We now know that Vault Space is being worked on and we know some long standing Raid fixes are being worked on (even though this was still pretty vague). I am relatively grateful for this week's update and I'd like to let DeeJ know that. It is obvious to me by now that Bungie has no idea what the community defines as a "good update." I hope DeeJ finds this response to let him know that this update is headed in that direction. Not there yet, but it is definitely headed there.
As far as closing the comments goes, that is definitely strange. The only thing I can think of is that DeeJ got such a backlash from the absolutely unacceptable update from the week prior that he decided to shut off comments for this week. Unfortunately for DeeJ that will only reinforce the community's suspicion that Bungie really doesn't want to hear from us.
EDIT: Nvm, evidently the reason behind shutting down comments was b/c all the crap and/or all the different topics that people usually post in those comment sections. I suppose that makes sense.

yeah but he usually will also put a thread on the forums to discuss it as well and he didn't do that either. It doesn't matter if it's gotten toxic, it's only gotten that way because he's done a poor job of communicating with us and that's his job. Every news update has sounded like a political speech. I went to last week's news update and read through the first 10 comments on there. You know what all them had to deal with? The game and concerns that players had. None of them were off topic (well except one about pop rocks and cat litter) and all of them were from gamer's voicing legitimate concerns. Now you can say that some of them are the same concerns over and over. If Deej is tired of hearing them then come out with a news update and say that "These features will never be in vanilla Destiny" and that will end it. Don't sit there and ask for feedback though and then never acknowledge it.

Your edit is spot on. People don't use the update section to give support/advice on topic, They use it as a soapbox to talk stupid. Also, the fact you scrolled right down to the bottom to read comments (I do the same). I read the article, mission accomplished deej.

I didn't scroll right to the bottom I read the article first like I always do. Sorry if that made it seem like I did. I meant to say I scrolled to the bottom after reading the article.

This is how I feel couldn't have said it better.
