Well i dont know if you noticed, but little to no veterans comment on brainstorming/ideas.
A cursory glance of the forums would prove this untrue.
We all have to wait till our post is on page 3 for you to take pity on us.
Or you can ask politely via PM or chat.
That said, waiting for something to be addressed usually takes a couple days, tops. If something can't wait, the IRC is the best option.
Veterans are the busiest site members. We've also got jobs and personal obligations that take priority over the unpaid, frequently extremely-thankless task of giving feedback on other people's stuff in our spare time.
I cant effectively write an article if i dont get feedback, but i cant get feedback so im left to fend for myself here.
Patience.
Also the IRC, and authors can ask people via PM.
