::No, because developers are basically just noise-makers and noise-filterers.  (all serious [[software development concepts]] acknowledge chaos, and the eight-arrowed chaos logo should be the development/noise wiki logo!).  It is the researchers who provide the sense, the sniffing out, the intelligence.  The world doesn't work by rules.  It is chaos, and [[trolls]] simply direct the chaos by organizing it into [[faction]]s and [[campaign]]s, but it stays chaos.  Any sense comes from the researchers.
