And you had better believe I'm raising holy hell... Tiggs stated we were less than 1% of the population. However, in this Astromech Stats Friday Feature from August, we're in the top 50% of all professions.
Not to mention we're listed above, for example, Commando, which is being preserved in the new system. So there are more CHs than Commandos, yet CH is being cut from the game. Hmm... something doesn't add up.
Raise your voices. Speak up. Even if you're quitting, fight for those who may still stay. Fight for your pets. Be extra-melodramatic... but say your part if you feel strongly about it.
Im still here too and so are the rest of you.Rest assured Ko-aIri,even if you get fourm banned for this that there will be a few vets left to continue the work.

Yes Ko I agree.. we can fight this one, oneway or another.If we can't 'petition' on the forums.. think of the other ways we can.. that are even MORE effective. I wonder what they could be.. oops.. brb. I have a PHONE CALL from an old friend who just got my POSTCARD.

I know I've barely ever posted in these boards, cause I get overwhelmed by the amount o stuff to read, but I'd like to say I've been working on CH since launch, so I've been CH for over 2 years. Even tried it out in Beta 3 and loved it. After CU I thought about leaving CH to make my toon stronger in combat, and then realised I couldn't live without the pets I've had for so long.
I am really depressed, and indeed we need to fight, but right now I feel like I got crashed by a giant $OE sign...
We should do a CH protest week or something, with all CH accross servers putting their biggest pets right at the Theed starport entrance and /shout "Let my pets live!" or something like that every minute... I have a friend that joined the game about 1 month ago, and he's doing CH/BE, can't imagine how he's feeling right now...
I'm speechless...
TO THE REVOLUTION!

i started playing this game day 1, with the goal in mind to master CH
i did so in august 03 and loved the profession through all the nerfs and what not, everyone who has stuck with the profession has
we adjusted and readjusted time and time again
its really sad to have it all end like this
even though i doubt SOE will keep this wonderful profession ingame i will continue to hope that they change their minds and add a scout/ranger/ch skill in their somewhere
i will continue to hope as i have done for the last 2+ years, even though it wont help
I will continue to wear my MCH tag as i always have and carry on, atleast for a month under this upcoming system to see if i want to stay or not
its a sad day for our profession
I mastered CH inDec 2003 , had a blast and still have all my pets. A sad day indeed. And to the Coro, no need to apologize man, we're all in this one together and you did the very best you could. /tip hat

/salute
i recently made a character on gorath server that was going MCH cause i loved the idea of beinga CH even if it wasnt my main, thank you for your help, and advice, i am very sorry to see what the revamp is going to do with CH by basicaly removing it /cry i may not have been a CH for long but i still loved calling my pets and going aroudn with them. I give all of you vet CH's a /salute for your time, money, and patience that it took to become the great players and people that you are.
I dont think its possible to delete the best parts of SWG as many times as SOE has by misstake . It has to be a plan to distroy the game . Crafting of all kinds gave many people great pleasure , wifes & girlfriends could play in same game with there guys without having to be a fighter. My wife & i spent a year collecting resorses for Doc before the CU. Be for the CU the cantinas had many people talking & haveing fun , gone now Why ? When The CU distroyed her doc she quit & went to WOW. I have contenued to keep up her account & played her toon as a BE & allso played my CH / Rifleman.
The day CH is removed from SWG will be the last time I log into SWG , there will be nothing left for me here. Ill be joining my wife in WOW as i should have done at the CU.
I know exactly how you feel.. No I am no longer a CH but I was in the very beginning of this game and I loved it!! I was a CH until they hit the first CH nerf and I knew then it was a goner. I have always kept an eye on CH just in case something happened that would lure me back but instead they just killed it.
My hat goes off to all of you that stayed and hoped for the best and I am truly sorry to see this profession come to an end.

Enforcer
I honestly don't know what to say about this. I have been MCH since I started this game back in 07/03. I worked my ass off to get it, back when it was hard. Because of that I never dropped it. Had my chance to respec and still kept everything I worked for. Today (with out knowing of this CH death) I went against my better judgment and bought the trials. I did not buy any other pack since I bought this game. My reasons were simple. To many screw ups, nothing has changed since the game started with these nightmare fixes. I was not about to drop down hard earned cash for the packs, until now. Dam! Part 3 comes out on DVD this past Tuesday, I watch it every day since it came in the mail on Monday and that fueled my passion for the purchase of this pack. I was on mustafar for 2 mins and someone came up to me, bowed and wished me and my profession well. I thanked them, figuring it was just another person who understood the problems this profession has had from the start. 10 minutes later another toon walks up to me and says “I will miss seeing you and your friends, with your cool pets, good luck to you, sir." I thought this was strange and figured they were leaving the game and wished them well and told them I was sorry to see them go from the game. The person responded with “I’m not leaving, your profession is." I shook it off as someone busting my balls. I then met up with my friends only to have one say the same thing to me. Another one told them to pipe down as they know how much I love this profession and figured I would be upset tonight. When I pressed them for more info, they sat me down and explained to me what was being said here. I could not believe it. So I played on. All the while this was in the back of my head. Could it be true? Could this really be the end? Well from reading here, I'm still not 100% sure but things don't look to good. As I was logging out a friend told me good luck. I replied to him, “there are no more movies, this game is all I have left to make me feel apart of a wonderful thing that has been with me in my dreams since I was 7 years old.” Yes 7, I saw "A New Hope" in the theaters back in the late 70's and that movie fueled my dreams and imagination for years. To this day I am a 35 year old, grown man with a figure of Obi Wan sitting atop my TV set that my wife will not touch as she knows how much it means to me. When I started this game I was amazed. The music,npc's,sceneryall brought me into a world I had only dreamed I one day would experience. Since then I have played on an off for roughly 2 months at a time, but always knowing this game would allow me to have those childhood feelings at anytime. I would like to say a very sarcastic "Thank You!!" to the Devs for ripping those feelings and dreams away from me, leaving me with only sadness. I’m sure these feelings were not the feelings Mr. Lucas intended for his devoted fans to have, but it seems some how along the way, someone forgot what this world and this story can do to a young child’s mind. To keep screwing around in order to “BALANCE” game play is only ruining the experience, the magic and most importantly the love for something that was once great. I’ll stick around as I’m not a quitter. But I’m just letting my one little voice be heard here. You are talking my love for this entire epic and destroying it. I only hope that one day I will not be taking Obi Wan down from the TV as he is still my only hope!!
Sorry for the long post!!
My most played char is a MCH/MBE currently, just got MBE shortly before ToOW, because I couldn't find anyone to sell me CL70 pets.
I bought the expansion for the sole reason of getting CL80 pets.
Soooo ... what do I do now? My CH char is totally useless, the expansion seems like wasted 30 bucks ... I have pretty much no knowledge of legaleese, but isn't there a fraud in here somewhere?
Also ... why did they waste tons of development times on a CH revamp if the whole profession is just deleted 2 months later?
To Ko-aRi: Thanks for the work you did for us.
