Last couple of PTS cycles had several oversights, bugs and other issues that were called out on the PTS, but made it to live nevertheless. There have been longstanding issues regarding faulty furniture recipe costs and recipe droprates and whatnot, and it's increasingly hard to figure out who to send these to.
People know who to tag for combat and balance changes, we even have class representatives now that can bring stuff to the dev's attention, and in PvP it's pretty obvious who is the one to ping for ideas or bugs. Trials and dungeon designers are also easy to find, and engage in communication with regarding these areas.
But, who is the one in charge of crafting, housing, furniture and other non-combat areas? Several things have been reported via /bug, via the bug subforum, or even on the main forum, sometimes even for years, with no response.
Just a few examples: Ever since Homestead update, the provisioning max level writs have been bugged, they only got fixed with Wolfhunter, like one and a half year later. Another example, the Wood Elf Throne obviously had the wrong material cost, which only got fixed this update as well, one and a half year later. Currently, several recipes for Alinor furniture have the wrong material cost, this was brought up on the PTS, and yet it made it into the game on live.
Could we get a name/some names so we can ping them here on the forums in the future in cases of things relating to non-combat issues and bugs? That would really make for some faster and more efficient communication, plus - hopefully - we could get into some kind of dialogue with these people over concerns and issues especially regarding furnishing and housing, I know the community has lots of questions and issues in that area, that they would like to bring to the devs' attention.

If it's the guy I think it was (can't recall the name), I tried looking him up with a tag here on the forums, but couldn't find his name anywhere.
I don't know if he is strictly responsible for creating the new houses only, or also for the adjecent areas such as furniture recipe material costs and crafting in general.
