The beta was advertised same as this one, but was only on a select number of wikis. So yeah, if you're not technical, it's possible to ignore it. However, that's at your own risk. Also, judging from the number of replies, the majority of people didn't even bother to read the blog.

As for having opinions heard - they've heared everything we've thrown at them. A larger number of people saying the same thing doesn't mean much - it's still a very tiny sample of the total of Wikia users.
