i believe she was just laid off. subscribership is down, and there was redundant customer relations people. SOE finally wised up and decided that it was a futile effort to communicate with the playerbase on the forums because such a small percentage of the game's population use the forums, and that small percentage of people was nothing but whining, immature children. it didn't matter what tiggs wrote on the forums to try to communicate because whatever she wrote there would be dozens of immature children whining.

you work for SOE dont you?

Yeah that person works for SOE

For SWG_Miriam

I'm sorry to say but large percentage may not post but they do read them, ask people in game sometime what they think about the NGE. Alot of people in guilds tend to use their own forums more than these and if you look around you will learn what people are really saying. So since you believe the people who help pay your mortgage are idiots and immature I hope you loose your home, your family and everything you have worked your whole life over this. Good day.

Loose everything because of her opinion ? Is not that a bit hard you think ? If you don´t like the way she handles her work and you wish that she get fired that´s one thing, but the rest is just plain childish... She worked with community relations on a GAME, it´s not the end of the world if you think she wasnt good at her job.

Yes I will admit that is harsh or hard as you say, but the way SOE views their consumers is harsh as well. We go to work every day just like they do, we have families just like they do. Some of us are even in high salary jobs. Just because someone rants on a board about a game that does not mean they are childish, it means they are passionate. I’m sure tiggs was about the game as well. Like I said in another post SOE designed this game to be immersive and it is, hence the passion that drives these somewhat fire fueled forum posts.

Look at Blizzard, they discovered the perfect business formula for this type of sporadic unstable industry along time ago back when they started designing WoW. Play the types of games you design and most of all have passion. Most of the staff at Blizzard came from a gaming background. Not just the industry but they played games and liked to play games. As far as I can tell all those types of people have left or been fired from SOE for having that type of passion.

Hopefully, Tiggs left willfully in protest to the upcoming changes. I know that I wouldn't want my name professionally associated with this game. Soon, I may even disassociate my nickname from this game if I don't like the changes.

Props to Tiggs, I hope your stress was left at your desk! I'd like to hear her point of view on this matter.

Here it is!

So she should lose her home, family, etc, over an opinion? That's harsh, dude. She has just as much right to her opinion as you do.

---

Since when do you have the right to voice your opinion on these boards?

With the first CU crap announced, negative postings about it got deleted faster than you could post them, people got banned.
They don't like your opinion, they delete your stuff.
They probably didn't like Tiggs' opinion, she got fired. IF that was the reason. We still don't know yet WHY and how exactly it happened. We probably never will. Anyways...Freedom of speech might be your right in the States (here in Germany it is) but


IT IS NOT ON THESE BOARDS! IT NEVER WAS!
