Tgmage, what you are seeing can partly be described as us not expecting much. There are plenty of good small suggestions, that is suggestions that don't try to change the game as a whole but just improve it (like your compass thing), but we also know that it does take a long time for any suggestion to gets implemented.
But the real "no thanks" mentality I see isn't really about such small changes, at least not from a majority of the players, but about bigger changes that go in the direction of "let's change how game mechanics work on a fundamental level".
