Thanks, got it.

Is it just me though, or do these forums kind of suck? They just seem kind of clunky and poorly designed.

OMG lol they removed the part of my profile. the part that said the HHGTSWG states the Development team of SOE will be the first against the wall when the revolution comes.

Virtanis (a respected DE) just made a post mirroring mine today. He was calmer and used more facts. I use the truth. If something sucks and you stay on you have to have hope for something. The Devs are DM/GMs of this game. I stay because it is Star Wars, I stay because the few friends in game are worth it. If I were just starting and had no friends in game, I would quit before my 30 days was over. The New Hope of this game is not the Dev team. It is that your friends will tolerate it as long as you do. They are the only ones that will mean anything in the end. JustG, Rune, and TH do not care. The profit margin is what matters. The game design went out the window long ago.

They do not care either. You can believe that. This is the economic theory there are suckers born every minute. Pet Rocks, Beanie Babies, and SOE.

Pluto, where can we find this post of Virtanis'?

I think every player of SWG needs to read that post. I think he's hit the nail squarely on the head.

So much potential, so tragicially unfulfilled.

That was a good post. I fear it will be ignored like this one, or Tazz's or a multitude of others that might help change the direction of this game if the devs would only listen.

I can report that I have found a solution to the Combat Rebalance. I surrendered all my combat skills recently and am finally pursuing my 'final' build of master Creature Handler, a smidgeon of Ranger tracking, and am now learning Bio-Engineer. I won't be engaging in any combat with my pet other than the distraction to get away. So it doesn't affect me either way.

Okay, I still stand by my original post, but maybe I can milk another month or two out of this game....

Good luck, Pem, and anyone else leaving. I am only staying because of my friends and PA. If I find City of Heroes enjoyable, and my friends do as well, then I am afraid it will be game over for SWG. They finally succeeded in breaking my spirit.

I apologize for not linking that post myself. Major screw up on my part and I missed the questions asking me to link it. I am getting a late start on the day. The Devs are missing the boat here. That is a brilliant post.

There is a petition on the Core Systems board about doing the Combat Balance before the Jedi Balance. While it might not have much weight, everyone that agrees may wish to weigh in on the issue.

My personal recommendation is to not turn it into a 'fix the CH' thread. Mention us if you wish, but keep in mind a lot of other professions will be affected by the mythical Combat Balance as well. Making others think it is their issue will help us in the end.

*devious grin*

Here is the link.
