Ideas that are too old (too many things have changed since) and ones which won't be implemented for certain reasons or if there are obviously better suggestions.

I see that you have made this game compatible with 32bit windows I was wondering if you would be able to make this game work on 32bit mac you would be be to get many more buyers because then children on their 32bit macs will be able to get it on holidays or on their own.

Does this make sense?
Cause http://apple.stackexchange.com/question ... -or-64-bit
"Basically if you have anything newer than an 2008 MacBook you have a 64 bit processor and OS…"

2008 is now 8 years ago. How many people still have such one, how fast will Factorio work on that and how much afford must be put into it to make it run? Aka: Will it sell?

Anyone who is against to put this into "Not implemented"?

I agree. Also from the Changelog for 0.12.21:
FactorioBot wrote:
  • Changes
    • Dropped support for OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
OS X 10.7 (Lion) and up have only been released as 64-bit OS.
