Most people only buy houses when they need a new one on another planet, Loosing a house is really rare for most people because of small houses with 50k in it last about 150 days..

I don't think losing harvs is near as rare. That is the repeat buisness that I worry about.

Dropping most of itapart from 0.0.0.3 soI can still build houses when needed for my town the extra points being the Mayor will be handy but apart from that its a dead profession, as far as i am concerned.


I think hundreds of posts dont exist though because most of the clever ones left a long time ago..and again more will leave because ofthis...unless you happy making furniture of course.


I certainly feel alot more could have been accomplished with this profession...real life or game wise what actually last forever...game wise pre-nerf which is fair because many spent loads of money to place good AA or CA items on them but structure at the forefront should be the most to decay and need constant attention.


But why allow houses to be carried around like they are a piece of grub bait there would not be this problem if an allocation of times you can redeed a house before it is lost likefaction buildings onces its down its down.....everything should have been made like a Town Hall.... thats my 2 pennies worth.


Still who knows there maybe plans for Architect...an not just forElite lampshade making.

I really gotta feel for you guys.


Your profession is built on the assumption that people will wish to use their lots, but once all users lots are filled, and they have whatever extras, all you have are your paintings and furniture, so basically the only time you see highly improved sales is about a month after Sony does a huge ad-campaign to get new people playing the game.


Maybe I'm different than everyone else, but I've had to replace 5 deeds due to not paying maintenence. 1 factory that I forgot I had (and thus didn't really care about), 2 chemical harvestors that I had down and forgot about, then couldn't find when I checked my lots so I had let them blow, 2 minerals that I didn't hop onto that particular toon in time to catch. And that's out of the 30 static lots I run, the 4 houses, the med center, the guild hall, and the merchant tents scattered throughout the galaxy. Looking at your market I'm surprised you get any repeat business at all, except from people like me who just really need to have the certain "look" to all their stuff, and don't mind blowing a few million at a time to do it.


As far as the lot-traders, there's always a market for grind material, but the lack of ore sales will kinda suck, since no other profession calls for Ore as much as Arch. Steel is still a good commodity for shipwrights, and there's always a few people trying to grind up that in a day, so I don't mind.


This change does affect things for you guys, and I can only hope that there's a second part to make this madness into reason, aside from a bunch of schematics. From one borked profession to another, I wish you well.

Ah it went live...


Thats me finished as architect at least. It's been great fun, this forum has been a great help, and the wisdom of people like Pawlin has made me master the profession alot faster than I otherwise would.


I'll see some of you on the weaponsmith forum I guess.

Now, let's not get out of hand here.

I don't thing Dvnce is trying to tell you that everything's fine here, move along. The fact is our market is broke and we're not the most important thing on their radar. Dvnce is trying to put it there with this nerf as a device. *sigh*

If they do let us craft factional structures that can be destroyed, be can then at least get a group together to destroy them for repeat buisness..... Why is decay so hard?

actually what I am saying is.. Our forum has been rather pleasant..Very rarely we see flame fest even our most heated conversations nuns could participate in Though I want to still keep civil.. I do think its time to turn up the heat a bit and let our voices be heard. We have waited patiently for a very long time to get some attention.. ( more than a 1 use furniture schematic ) If they are going to keep this ( which I do not favor the new maintanence change.. then SOE better be working on a list of new additions for us.. Especially in the Structure Department. The Only way that Our profession will be healthfully sustained with the new Maintanence system is by consistantly introducing More and More Structures.... If SOE does this then I am fine with these new changes...

\pickUp Chair


Death: "Ok I am ready for battle"

" Oh wait I am Master arch and Master Merchant I have no fighting skills !"

Death Thinking: " Rember what happend to yourself the last time you tried to set harvestors on endor? (3-deaths)"

" And you still had to bring a Alt all the way out there to clear the spawns for you !!! "


Perhaps as in game life we have no fighting skills with the powers that be.


Sorry If I sound bitter


I have played this game for 17 months and have had some of the best experiances ever........

However I have watch as close friends 1-by-1-by-1 leave the game.......

Some because of Real Life situations.

Some because of a major fight with the guild or another guild member

But 95% of them left for 1 reason...........................


Utter Fustration with the playing a broken game and even more so the lack of fixing it !


Altho the SWG forums give us the oppertunity to vent our fustrations...... thuth be known our post will never be reviewd by a SOE official.


Saving SWG could have been so easy, all they would have had to do was listen.............

Do we want more drops ? NO !

Do we want more POI,s ? NO !

Do we care if we slide out of a chair ? NO !

Do we want unlimited maintance ? NO !


What do we want........... Fix our D@M Game !!!!!!
