Thread: So You Fired Tiggs?

Ok, I got the words back...
You know how hard it is to get any information about anything in here?
Now can you possibly imagine how hard it is to place someone as a community relations person and treat them the same way?
Tiggs was placed between a rock and a hard place.You can't treat your employee'slike that and then expect them to stick around when the bantha poodoo really hits the ceiling.
/agree
It's hard to be a beekeeper when your boss keeps shaking the hive.
This sucks. I'm gonna miss Tiggsy. 
This was a bad move on SOE's part. Her and Goliath seem to be the only two SOE workers who really try to interact with the community (atleast Goliath seems to on the Smuggler forum, anyway).
I guess if anyone really does find Tiggs, instead of getting a "Tiggs Tracker" icon they'd get a "Tiggs Stalker" icon and a sentance in jail.

Ok, SOE manages to drop one bomb after another on us recently. I sure hope Tiggs didn't get fired, but left on her own cause the situation here was getting ridiculous. Frankly I just don't see how someone could be fired that works long hours like she did lately (and that defends these BS changes).
I will miss her (.......and her cool sig lol) and wish her the best of luck for what ever comes next. She was truely the most active dev on these boards and I do hope they find someone with similar dedication to fill her shoes.

This is in no way directed at the mods, as i know they have nothing to do with this. Im giving critisism in regards to community relations.
Great work guys, i must say. I honestly, didnt think that things could get any worse then you go and fire one of the only truly great people on your books that genuinly and vocally believed in the game and what it could achieve.2 and a half years and still SOE continues to make mistake after mistake, i would honestly think you guys would learn but obviously i was wrong. Consider my account cancelled, ill be waiting for the timer to run out.OwenIf anyone has any kind words to send to tiggs then be sure to drop them in this thread.
My 2 cents worth and I don't really care what others think.To SOE - if you really wanted to get rid of the game, just give us our 90 days notice and quit stringing us along. Rework the game the way you want to and release it to the console as this seems to be your plan anyway.As for Tiggs, I don't know what happened or the reasons behind the decisions (although I have my suspicions) and will not take sides. You were one of the most active people in getting us the information we needed, and to that I sa y thank you. I wish you well in all your future endeavors.As for the NGE - I like the NGE, in fact I see it as a breath of fresh air. One problem is forcing everyone into playing a type of pre-determined character. The game started by stating it was our destiny, ot yours. We as players were able to make decisions about what we trained and when we trained those skills. We had the choice of if we wanted to pay for the training or to interact with other people to learn. Now all we get is the automatic gain.Another problem is that people are being forced to leave proffessions that they chose to train and play. Creature Handler was always one of the hardest to train up, players put alot of effort in getting their skills and pets. The reason it was one of the least played professions was the fact there were much easier ways to grind fs xp to become a Jedi. I believe that if CH would have had the advantage over other professions in that area they would have been the fotm. Beside Jedi what profession was the most played - Bounty Hunter (and yes this is my profession) , why because we got the highest capping ability for fs xp, we got loot that eventually we would need when we finished the village, and we made alot of credits. I am not talking about every BH, but in general this is what you saw.In closing I would like to say to all the players staying, enjoy and I am sure I will see you again. As for me my accounts are active until the middle of December. I will respec to Jedi and have some fun, then pack up my characters and head to Hoth while things cool down. I can say for certain that I will be back, I enjoy the game, my friends, and the community to much not to. There is just too much turmoil and chaos to have fun at this point in time.
You know, this is the reason I left this game the first time. It just feels like SOE is constantly trying to keep people guessing with this game. Everytime I have felt like I was just getting the hang of things, they completely change something huge. Luckily, Dark and Light is coming out this month so there is a better alternative.
Combat might be more engaging now, but that honestly isn't what I was looking for when I bought this game. It's too annoying to chase your target all over just to keep clicking it.
With my personal NGE rant out of the way, I'd like to
/bow Tiggs
You did a great job IMO, your excellent mix of humor and information will be missed.
Lol, do you mean to stand here and say Tiggs is responsable for the mess SWG is??? LOL, thats the funniest thing I have read on this boards in a long time. Its so absurd its funny that anyone could even think that. It would be just so simple for SOE if that was the case

going to have to chime in again......director of public relations is a high level position,,,,,,,,,a decision maker. She got fired for a good reason, SWG is a mess and she helped it get that way. NO excuses thats the facts. Bring in someone that is accountable and hold them to it is on most business models. She knew the risks and appearently not able to do the job. Good luck on the next assignemt.....
!~TIGG POWER~!
Star Wars Was more like a family that SOE and LA just ripped apat.
