I hope nobody feels offended by this question, but I'm asking myself why do WHDLoad slaves exist for games, which have just been released? Sometimes the patch is even released together with the game.

Most WHDLoad- and game authors are EAB members. So why are problems not simply reported, or why don't game authors care about these reports? Maybe the game author doesn't want some issues to be fixed?

For example I would not want to "fix" my trackloader and make the game work on hard disk. But I could imagine there are issues worth fixing.
