I think your right to be paranoid because of how the community in this game works, as soon as a profession get a boost to it the people who arnt that profession complain untilitis removed rather than trying tobetter their own profession this is the way of things.
The only thing better than getting something cool for yourself is stopping someone elsefrom getting anything!
QFE - take a look at the Smuggler forums if you need proof that there are people like that in this game.
It's funny how players slam the Developers for nerfing things, when it's inevitably players who are calling for them to nerf someone else...
Ill offer you a prediction and from experience i see it happening, BH loot tables get changed meaning it lowers the good loot we get this means people realise that they have a better chance farming aakaun missions so again BH nps missions come to a stop.
Now lets move onto the profession which ive been for the longest time smuggler, they add smuggling missions to the game but upon seeing how much other professions didnt like the new BH loot system they decide to do the same thing to smuggler by not implementing a cool loot system because it would be seen as unfavourable to other professions.
Looking at the history of this game its not the developers nerfing professions its the players as the old saying goes "be careful what you wish for it may come true" if you dont want BH's to get this loot and if the devs act on it people have stopped their own chances of receiveing this level of loot for their professions.

I haven't seen too much nerf-calling yet, but the Pistoleer correspondent has made two posts that have basically only been "What's the point of PVE if you're not a BH now?" You'd think a corresponent (And for my other profession, no less) would be one to welcome getting good loot out to the common-player and encourage fixing all the other loot tables rather than throw out posts like that. It appears like he's not overtly calling for a BH loot nerf, but the subtext is that he's definately not happy about it. (But then, being a long-tme pistoleer, since when do the devs listen to us?
I like loot... I'm happy that BH get loot. I wasn't one of the correspondants that asked for this to not get pushed live.
I haven't asked for nerfs, I have asked for the rest of the loot tables to get fixed.

Dead on, my friend. It's the vocal, irrational Smugglers who are going to hang their own profession out of spite. We're not hearing from the level-headed ones because they realize that this ISN'T detrimental to their profession.

Don't let jealous Smugglers screw up something good out of spite!
Hahahahaha.
Why does this not surprise me? 
I didn't even realize it was you posting Tash until I hit quote. 
I'm not in favor of nerfing BH loot at all, but I disagree with making loot drops for other professions specific to the BH profession.
BH marks are tough and I think the loot drops are according. I lovehunting for quality random loot. Smugglers have been 2 years for a revamp and when they get 1, its a rediculous new slice with rare drop on components that everyone wants and they still can't smuggle. I think they have a right to be upset over this.
Imagine being a BH when the game started except you couldn't actually take BHmissions. You wait 2 years for a revampand you still can't take a BH mission.

Well honestly untill recently (what last 3-4 months?) BH was dead. Our missions where borked, droids in the past have not worked for PC marks at all, or if the did, they where buggy and unrealiable at best. (I know, it was a 'back in the day' comment, thank god MBH has finially been pulled out of the gutter...hopefully other 'normal' classes to follow)
My My badger....where did that post go....oh that is right, it got deleted right after I quoted you about 7 times either asking indirectly for nerfs or just plain trolling. For the record, you where asking for nerfs, and you where acting like a teenager, not a prof coro.

Non-boss 30k+ health marks are pretty tough for a BH with no healing skills whatsoever or maybe it's just me.

I know there's alot of animosity floating around atm, that I'd like to remind everyone that smugglers are not mad at BHs or hold them responsible for what's happening.
There are some who are, and they tend to be the more vocal of your community. Remarks like:
As if today, my slicing prices are as follows:
1. Inquiry 10k
2. Each slice, 1 million
3. Each complaint, add 200k
4. Special for BH's, add 20% to all above.
That's a pretty clear indicator of animosity if you ask me. Yes, Smugglers are long overdue for a revamp. But changing BH missions isn't going to help smugglers - I'm glad you realize that but some of your colleagues don't.
