Thread: Petition for a new Commando correspondant...
While i try to avoid posting to flames, I would like to thank everyone that is supporting me.
There is only so much I can do; and while MY persona opinions might not be the same as everyones, it is my job to bring what everyone says *within reason, No insta-kill RL's guys 
* to the Devs. That is exactly what I do.
The current issue with getting changes, is there is a whole combat balance going on, and many of the combat issues currently *as well as weapons problems and such*, are most likely going to be in there. I am actually going to have to re-vamp my Top 5 *for the 8th time; not knocking the Dev's, just my own personal feel on wanting to get it perfect for you guys* so that I can take that into account.
While right now I am Holo-grinding, the most I have given up so far, is Master Commando and the HAR tree... and that does not take into account my TC character. I started Commando prior to the Holo's and the Cert fixes, and I love the profession. I want to see it have it's place in the SWG whole; and have this game come out great!

What do you suggest your correspondant do? Giving ideas about what he should do will be much better than flaming him. So in your mind (which doesn't have access to the correspondant's forum I might add) he's not getting the job done Excuse me but whoever said that it was his responsibility to get commando moved up in the dev priority queue? Did we miss something in the Correspondant's job description? "1. The correspondant is directly resonsible for ensuring that their profession is the devs top priority"
Do you recommend he post more? Well if any correspondant proved that theory doesn't work it would be the former correspondant with a post count above 7000 (Wepps).
You are so uninformed and wrong it's ridiculous. Blaming your correspondant for lack of progress is stupid at best and moronic at worst.
You fail to forget that your last correspondant quit because he was tired of being ignored. It's not your current correspondant's fault that commando doesn't work to your personal tastes. All he can do is post. Until he becomes a programmer on SOE's staff or becomes head of development he has no direct say in who gets fixed when.
Just shut up and go away already.
Hey bright boy....Remove your lips from the Correspondents bunghole for a minute, will you?
I never flamed him. Not once.
The correspondent should be dedicated to whatever profession he is responsible for. Not hologrinding. Which LordS has already admitted to. So, obviously, he ISNT giving the Commando top priority, as he should. Why else be a prof specific correspondent? "Yeah, I know, I should be working the Commando out right now, but to open my FS slot, I think I will go play ID for a while"...Thats the kind of dedication you want?
And yes, I can blame the correspondent for not making our voices heard. That is, after all, his job. To represent the community of Commandos to the devs with our issues.
Posts count do not equate intelligence, as evidence by your near 4K posts...Usually an indication of mindless drivel (your "response" is proof positive of this)...
Its not that the Commando doesnt work to my personal tastes, its that the Commando barely works period. Since you are so informed and right, show me where I am misinformed and wrong? Stepping out on a limb with having your facts straight, to use your eloquent wording is "stupid at best, moronic at worst".
So in closing, YOU shut the **edit** up, and do us all a favor and end yourself. Thank you for playing and please drive through.
... so you're saying that he can't play the game too? Get real, he's not getting paid for this. You can only test so much before things become redundant. He's already stated he's keeping his commando skills while he hologrinds.
Sheesh, what's wrong with you people? Do you want a frigg'n cookie or something?
The HAR is still broken and our titles... FOR GODS SAKE OUR TITLES for skills haven't been corected! These, at least the latter of the two, should be easy fixes. Yet they have not been fixed. So I say one last time, let us stop bickering amongst ourselves and pointing fingers. We should be working as a community to better the profession.
Honestly, there is clear proof that you guys are deluded--we've had many undeniably GREAT correspondents and all have failed to get the devs to listen to those of us who play the profession. If LordS were somehow the first one who didn't have the Devs ear, then I could see your complaining, but we have never been considered a priority (and in fact seem like we're viewed as a nuisance). Whose "fault" is that? It's no ones, at least not over ion the players' side (which side definitely includes LordS).
As for his hologrinding, has anything notable happened to the profession since December? Nothing that I can see, so even if he were for some reason required to keep Master status at all times (and, for some reason, his having a Master Commando on TC didn't count) there's nothing new under the Sun worth checking out yet. And if there were? We would be checking it out ourselves and reporting it to him, so he could take it to the devs, and that's the job he signed on for, acting as our voice with them.
He's not there to try to conceptually redesign the class himself, but to pass our suggestions and issues regarding the class along. How is his not having the HAR line going to interfere with that? unctionally speasking, none of us has the HAR line!
Surely they give him SOME sort of break...

If he wants to play the game (i.e. - hologrind), fine. Be a "regular player". But any correspondent, whether it be the Commando, or Image Designer for crying out loud, IMHO, SHOULD be totally dedicated to that profession.
YES, I do want a cookie thank you very much.
