It was more to point out that they can't even proof the english language sohow do they expect us to have confidence in their ability to produce technicly sound code.


BTW, I never said I expected them to.



"Jedi claims of being "broken" are like saying "But my TV isn't widescreen! It's broken! My TV can't show high-def pictures in 1080i, it can only do 720i! It's broken!" Meanwhile, crafters are saying "We'd really like to have a TV that's larger than 12" and gets more than 4 channels and doesn't constantly lose vertical control", and entertainers are saying "Can we get some color instead of this B&W piece of junk?" And smugglers? We're listening to radio programs of "The Shadow" and "The Abbot and Costello Comedy Hour" and hearing FDR's Fireside Chats. We don't even HAVE a damn TV, much less a broken one or a "broken" one by Jedi standards. I'd LOVE to be as "broken" as they are." - The Legendary Solo4114

I just came here to talk about this as well...

I can't believe they did something like this to Smugglers AGAIN.

It seriously is funny (If you're sadistic like me... and if you're still a smugler... you must be... right?).

I dunno... that's just a BAD mistake.

Regardless of the profession mentioned, there shouldn't be such an obvious mistake in one of these newsletters... but being this particular profession??? Wow, that's a major snafu.

Many months since they revamped our slicing game-mechanic... I still don't care for this loot system. If I didn't have crates of kits and a BH friend handing me the loots, I REALLY would have hated the new system. And that was only half of what we might be getting... I'll stop my rambling now, because I gave up complaining about this a while ago... I'm gonna go have some pie and blue milk... 'cause the beer just ain't helping.

It was a smuggler update. There is nothing happening.

Reminds me of the time the Bush administration used the word 'Crusade' in an operations name to go kill some arabs. They just don't get it. Though that one wasn't funny, the smuggler update that isn't is a bit funny though.

I haven't read my Email today. Now I'm wondering if I should even read the newsletterjust tobe disappointed in the "Smuggler update".

Shouldnt be a huge surprise; remember, to them, an NPC getting his Smuggler tag back constituted a Smuggler update.



Or


A Friday feature that mocked the entire profession; Smuggler Super Secret Handshake, anyone?
