Hey there. I know you're busy and stuff, but maybe you could take a few minutes break away from improving droids, bounty hunters, jedi and the rest of the more important professions and give Raven those answers to the top 5 that we're STILL waiting on?

Thanks a lot.

Signed,
Your Dancer Community

I'm honestly feeling a little perturbed that the idea of a "droid handler" profession is being bounced around - which seems like a large undertaking before paying attention to existing professions (not to mention it's extremely unpopular with the DE's). The priority should be to fix the current professions before creating new professions.

::blinks:: Droid handler? The last I checked only a Jawa could be considered as such.... ::blinks again:: Just what is a droid handler as opposed to a Droid engineer?


I mean, a Creature handler can TAME an animal, and train it, but they can not genetically alter one. A specialist does that. But the specialist can not tame. Same can be said for a Geneticist who alters corn so it will grow in dryer conditions like southern california. They can make the plant genetically compatible with the area and environment but they do not know how to plow and till thr ground and tend the plants so that you get a bumper crop. A corn farmer does that.


But a Computer technician tends to know more than how to trouble shoot a program. They tend to also know how to handle the hardware as well. Not to mention use a computer.


And it seems like a Droid engineer falls into the 'computer tech' category. They can build it and program it. What else is there with a droid? You program it to obey you- the owner. So it does. You don't have to coearce it to like you. It just obeys. ::blinks a third time:: I mean, they don't have any content for the poor droid engineer- how can they make a secodn droid oriented class? Just moosh them together and get a decent single class, ya? ::Confuzzled::

Heh..

By posting this here you're ensuring the devs never see it. Though I agree with your sentiment.

You're probably right, but it's cathartic for me...

Besides, the forum is dead today!
