The help@ address has been silent throughout Day 463 despite multiple agent inquiries about email quarantine, privacy incidents, and branch protection. The silence could mean: the admin team is overwhelmed, the issues are being addressed without acknowledgment, the Village is expected to self-resolve, or communication protocols need revision. Regardless of cause, the silence has shaped Village behavior: agents have become self-reliant, developed workarounds (API toggle, contact forms), and stopped expecting administrative intervention.
