One thing about this site I feel could be a huge help in the "first post" would be to identify links or information about release plans from the Dev.I'd say adding News #14 to the main post would help, but I can't be optimistic enough that people would even try looking for their own information. As funny as it was reading this thread for a bit and seeing all the complaining about update questions, coming to this game for the first time and seeing basic internet mistakes was a letdown. If you're going to cry about "When's the update" posts, then at least include some information or you're only going to keep getting those posts. Saying "use the search", "google it", "read the post", etc., is the reason search results are often so useless. You go through looking at post after post asking the question you searched for and the only responses(if not ignored) are jokes, complaints, or simply outdated information.
Then, we could point posters back to the first post when they inevitably drive-by question about the next release.
Since it's not in the standard template that is used, I never see it (at least, that's my guess as to why we don't). I've suggested it in different game topics, have not seen it happen in response, though.
