  Well, yeah? That’s not really their job. All users did is buy a thing, they didn’t also sign up to be free QA.

    The article is saying that's what the users are doing, and the developers don't want them to.

    To rephrase, tell us what doesn't work, but don't tell us how we should fix it. We'll figure out an appropriate fix.

  In my experience, it’s much better to watch and listen to your playtesters as they interact with the game rather than listen to what they have to say afterwards. Always try to get a recording of them playing the game.
