"Haves" are those folks who feel that they have achieved a reasonable amount of wealth and ability.Enough that they are, for the most part, not envious or angry of other's wealth. If a "Have" is a tiny bit jelous,she feels that ifshe putsher effort in the right places,she can have just as much money, power or weaponry as anyone else.
"Average Players"are those who feel that it is extremely dificult for the average player to compete in the current economy. "Average Players" feel that anyone with a large sum of money (whether you considera large sum to be1,000,000 or 100,000,000) or overpowered weapon,is grossly bloated, and needs to be removed of some ofhis or herwealth oritemryto allow the average player to compete in the economic arena and achieve an overallbetter economic balance.

Probably a "have." I maintain considerable wealth in this post-solo-group age, as I'm a Master Doctor. Only the highest-quality items are absolutely out of reach, and although I know others harbor more wealth than I, my wealth suits my purposes.

Same, even tho my bankaccount usually doesn't reflect this.
(As credits are easy to earn I see no need to constantly work on earning something, it's enough that I go out to earn credits when I think I need them for something
).

It's hard starting out (the old you need money to make money), but this has been seriously alleviated with the new 75k starting cash.
75k? Are you serious? Wow. Okay, so can I start a character over and over on a server and tip 75k to someone else so that in turn I can get half of it back? Let's see 75k x 1 character every 5 minutes (I'm slow) x 1 hour of play = well more money than most toons I have had for months, even halved.

I played since launch, I was away from the game during that solo group @#%$^, I still have over 100mil in the bank I could "have" what ever I want if i wanted I just don't feel the need. I play a toon The way I like, who needs to be an uber pvper (some ppl def. of good player) when i can have an uber pvp go after any one i want. If I need killer armor or a weapon, I've been playing long enought to have some one make or find one for me and sell to me at a fair price. All of this and still able to be under the L33Ts scopes, I think I'm a true "have"

the 75k thing .. is only 1 time per server .. once you make the char and then delete it ... when you make it again you do not get 75k more ...

I'm an average player that has enough to get by.
If someone's beggin' credits, I give 'em a buff (my mismatched duration newbcrafting doctor buffs)and send them out to do missions.

I am an Average Player. I have pants, boots, Imperial Ace Jacket for my lovely outfit and 3 outfitted TIEs (Aggressor, Advanced, Bomber). I also have guild hall but that is because I wanna RP guild.
Im an average player because RP is more important than Items.

I've got several characters on several servers. Some have 3-5 million in the bank, and some are lucky to keep 3 or 4 digits in their accounts.
If you play, and play right, you can have whatever you want. Yes, it takes time and effort - just like in real life. I don't expect to jump into the game and have a guild hall and an AV-21 speeder next week.
My toons work for thier money, they don't spam and beg around the starports for cash like some I've seen.
I'm a have, who does without sometimes, because I realize that in game as in real life it takes time and effort to achieve.
