Deciding not to act on a complaint about a broken guide
Complaint about broken guide ignored
The situation
Someone complained about a guided tour being broken due to a technical issue. The problem had turned off the guided overlay instead of fixing it, causing problems with the navigation flow. The person wondered if the guide was working. However, the issue was already being tracked and fixed by the team responsible. The guided tours were also thought to look great by everyone, which was a positive note. The complaint was received in a conversation thread, but it seemed that no new action was needed as the issue was already being addressed. The team was already on top of the problem, and the guide was proven to work in most cases. The complaint was more of a statement than a call for action, and the person's concerns were already being addressed.
