To echo @spacemt354 thoughts, just give people some time. Not everyone logs in daily or even checks the threads here if they do log in. This thread especially, there is a lot of information to read through.
One thing I would suggest is finding a way to spread out your posts and/or threads. For a project of this size, just from what I glanced at in the word docs, you have a few solid months of reading for forum members if you moved the data into forum posts. Often you'll see blue-sky detailed resort projects like this broken up into many smaller posts (maybe daily), which makes it easier in my opinion to dive into the material where the time commitment to get through the material doesn't feel as daunting. This makes the project more accessible I think, and also encourages routine follow up from forum regulars as sort of daily or every other day reading material that maybe takes 5-10 minutes. It would also allow members to better appreciate all of the detail and work you've put in.
For smaller projects/topics, you may consider delaying those posts or consolidating into a single thread as a sort of grab bag of Imagineering ideas. Start a topic and share your ideas, allow some time for feedback and discussion, and you can update the thread title to your next topic. This would keep anyone following the thread regularly updated with new posts, and also avoid pushing threads you really want read off the main page of the recent forum list.
Don't be intimated or feel like your ideas are without merit. For the most part, everyone here giving feedback only does so with the best of intentions. We all have our own opinions and Imagineering is the type of topic that it's rare for anyone to agree completely on the design. Discussion, constructive criticism and freedom of ideas are all what make it what it is. Love your passion. Keep up the great work!
