Thread: A Passive Resistance
The developers are obviously not listening to us about fixing our professions and the amount of devestating critical failures that we have.
So i call for a passive resistance in and out of game. We will refuse to make anything for anyone for a week, and also sign the petition that Zarcath has posted for the past week.
If all of our complaining will not get through to them , then perhaps everyone complaining about how architects will not make anything will get through to them.
If you are in - sign below
If you are not - then continue to crit fail
It has been 2 months already and our profession has not been touched, it is time for a change.
you wont get scessful wth this good idea sadly.
result only would be that some still sell for 2cr per unit and u get even lesser sales :/
/sigh
be architects for yourself, not to make moeny
/sad architect from naboo
aye your heart is in the right place, but sadly his prob wont work....although we need something like this to get the devs attention
ill stop selling my stuff outside my guild, i make my guild all free stuff anyways....im in it for the fun because basically there is no money to be in it for anyways ![]()
There is no way to organize the novice architects on this one. There are more newbies pouring in everyday ready to undersell their grind items. If they have guild backing, then they have no *bills* to worry about. The only architects that will get hurt are the honest, struggling, architects that need to sell their goods to pay the *bills* and do no have a resource base to just sell only resources.
Maybe the contruction experimentation could allow for colors in funiture, or color hues in houses.Maybe if some of the schematics allow for an optional material to be added (something rare), then it can allow even more control of color or other furniture/house enhancements. That will make a difference between grind items and well crafted items. It would also make the known undercutters think twice before further undermining the architect community.
I would like to see furniture schematics and house plans change out. Our things may not decay, but they sure can become outdated! There would be a boon in antique dealers and historical home sales! LOL! Just ideas...I am sure there are many, many more.
Count me in.
As it is right now, I only sell every now and then. Wouldn't be much for me to stop selling entirely.
It would be more fun for me to not sell and say "Sorry, you can't have one because we ain't happy . . . . "
I believe even the newbs will realize that their crit fail fate in inevitable....
They will sign, or i will continually bump till they do.
/sign whats it hurt to try...
Especially when every thing else is not working...
Crit fails dont bother me anymore because of the macro, those novice architects might very well be using same macro so they will never feel the pain to lose something like a factory during the first week of the game. I would be up for no selling for a week, hell i have not sold a single thing for nearly a month (Big things, i sell some furniture occasionally) so it wouldnt help us out at all. One thing I would like to say though is that we do need the devs to pay some attention to us, and the only way i can think of doing that is holding a sit in in the general chat of SWG at some specific time, anyone intrested in that?
We could bombard the CSR with Pms, nothing negative just questions and the like, and stay there for an hour + letting all the CSRs know what were dealing with. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, although im not sure even bugging the CSRs or keeping the chat filled with 500 people would work. But its worth a try i guess, any plausible times or anything?
How is this for an idea:
Everyone post on this board, on the development board in individualthreads and to holocron in pm that we're cancelling our subscriptions if he or some other dev doesn't respond on the boards with a promise to fix the architects within the month.
Then, cancel the subscription if the promised changes don't occur.
That's what I'm going to do anyway.
