Ok I did a poll on Bria where I play and I did not get one master commando to say they were master just alot of I was but dropped it.
Bria is one of the heaviest popluated servers and I see maybe one master commando tag a week If im lucky! And other commando tags maybe once every other day. hanging out in corelia and naboo. what is up with this?
Should this not show them something really is up they need to do a spread sheet of master professions.
This makes me really sad I think im going to go home and eat some rocky road ice Cream and dream of setting proton grenades all around the out side of the SOE offices like mines.

Badges on bria
They did a friday feature of all the badges earned on bria... Commando was 1450 at the time... not the most learned one ... then take into account hologrinding droppers..

Why, does YOUR vomit taste good?
If you read my post you will see the phrase " then take into account hologrinding droppers.." indicating that i know full well that it wasn't representative of CURRENT skillholders... but representative of totals... meaning the current skill holders were less... but since you probably wont even figure it out with this explanation I dont know why I bother...

skeptic i was master commando in Bria too (hologrind made me drop it) but I still got some commando skills.
Now that I have my 2nd character in Bria im gonna make HIM 'my' commando. Send an in-game email to 'Munitions' in Bria, he's my soon to be master commando character (well in about a month and a half he will be). We could rock some stuff then

On Chilastra, of a guild of 50 approx (mine), we originally had 8 Master Commandos 2 months ago....we dropped to 1 (me) then 2 (recruited one, who is in process of dropping it)
We're the few minority now....a band of brothers

Gents,
i have been a master commando on bria since november of last year. i dont run into alot of other masters too often, but it seems i run into more than everyone else. if you want to find a master commando on bria, you have to look in the few places in the galaxy that commando is still effective as a profession. I make a living on beating the corvette, and i run into several other masters there. they also frequent the deathwatch bunker, where a good flamethrower is appreciated.
I can also proudly say that i have NEVER changed professions. ive never even temporarily dropped master, like many others have. Commando is my profession, the rest is just details.

Sadly, I'm in the 'former Master Commando' camp - but I do intend to return there. I became novice about two weeks before FT got fixed (this was what, Oct/Nov 2003?), so I was lucky, although I had just dumped a bunch of money on what turned out to be useless heavy weapons.
Stayed Master Commando (eventually also Master Smuggler) for at least six months or so, but grew weary of it. The crew I hung out with either quit the game or decided to start up new primary characters on other servers.
I've kept the Master Smuggler most of the last 6-8 months or so, with brief forays into other things.
Basically, I left Commando behind mainly because, although it was fun, only having one useful weapon got old. I haven't followed the boards much, but my brief glimpse here leads me to believe that all the stuff that was busted when I left Commando is still busted.
Once I finish my exploration of other professions, I'll probably return to it - depends on what I find. I do seem to have a propensity to try professions that really need love. Smuggler and Ranger both need love in a bad way, too. *sigh*
So, keep the faith!

I am a master doc, tkm. I've been reading the posts of where everything is going... and this just ruins my gameplay 
I rather liked having a bit of crafting, my healing, and being able to offer tanking support for a team. I took pride in making my own meds, working hard to find all the resources needed, and getting good ones at that. Then sitting down for an hour or so and really working on the process of making great stims/buffpacks/etc. This will be gone for me with the CU.
No longer will I be able to support a team with my skills. I can't log on, get myself ready, grab a team and go. Instead, I'll have to hope and pray some nice BE will be making my meds for me, and then hope I have time to get to the battle. Basically, as it sits, it looks like I get 1 day of playing with others, followed by 1 day of running around on errands now.
See, I've been in 3 guilds. Every one I've put my heart into, and each and every one has failed, no matter how hard I tried. I just can't put myself into such crushing positions anymore. But, with the CU, I have no choice. I'll have to rely entirely upon the whims of other players, and hope they'll be nice enough to sell some of the items I need.
To those that have direct control over this process.. Please, don't take away my game from me. I enjoy crafting, I enjoy healing. These are the 2 things that really made this game for me. Please don't destroy it, as I just can't see where I'd go after this.
No longer will people be able to create a workable template that includes some of everything. We'll be pidgeon-holed to just one thing. You are a doc, you have no other skills other than making your meds and healing. You are a fighter, you have no way to do anything but fight fight fight.
Why do this? One of the main draws to this game was the diversity offered by the skill tree system, you could pull multiple disiplines together and create a more robust and well-rounded character. This is why we get only 1 character per server. The way the CU is going, with all the interdepenancies... the person who wants to just play has no ability to anymore. We'll have to rely on everyone else, hope they stock vendors, or hope they come through on promises just to be able to do anything.
I'm tired, it's already past my bed time, I apologize if this seems disjointed, but reading what's been posted about CU and the changes to the way my favorite profession works... just leaves me sick

Yep. It's too bad. I log into TC and sit there for a few minutes and literally get sick to my stomach, then log out.
