You're always valuable to me... dancing is a social art, and the power gamers just don't understand that.


besides, we use the Squad Leader analogy for the whole 'useful' jokes. I have never seen a weaponsmith look as good as any dancer.

You know, we're all a community. Sometimes you have to take the good, the bad, and the irritating with all that it encompasses.


I really loathe RPing in this game, but I love doing cool things with my entertainer and sometimes just hanging making dances and bands.


You're a part of that joy, for me, even though I don't think we've ever met on Valcyn. Please consider being a part of that joy for others instead of 'giving up' on hope.

I think it's silly to let a few grumps chase you off before you even see how well this works for you... I highly doubt it's going to be half as bad as they are implying it will be. As for people making fun of us... ok, we're dancing and playing music in a game where most people think combat is the only reason to play a game!


I hate Ent harassment too and always have, but I really think we're in a better spot now. I also am pretty darn hopeful other non-buffing content will be coming down for us that will actually bemore for our own direct enjoyment. If you reallyfeel like you need to sit out the next few dances till you feel safe enough to come back out on the floor, I hope you have a nice break and get back with the boogie soon.

I'm going too, dear.


I don't like what this game had turned me into. There was a time that a nasty thought wouldn't even enter my mind. Now, all I have is bitterness. And it is because, for the life of me, still cannot understand why players find reasons to hate me as a player who plays a dancer.


I would have never thought that something so harmless and trivial like dancing can be treated with so much scorn.


At launch, I danced for everyone, and they were free to tip me whatever they thought was right, or nothing at all. I amused. I felt like I was important, because by dancing--just by dancing--I did important things. The other players stood up for me, and took care of me. After all, how can anyone hate a dancer who asks for nothing?


There was no reason, yet they found reasons anyway. And if they can find reasons when there are none, then they'll be sure to find reasons when there are some. Like not clicking the stupid buffing menu on them, or not being at the computer, and in their workshop,when they want to craft.


I never had to worry about anything but my dance. Now I have to worry about so many other things, it doesn't seem that fun anymore. It seems like such a struggle just to have fun.

LOL, don't let the biggest whiners in the game get to you. Just thumb your nose at them.

Just because people defend there profession and can be mean doesnt mean you should just fold up and stop playing. Have fun in game and dont worry about stuff.. most weaponsmiths are not angry at entertainers because of the new buffs(its actually more from people assuming we are mean credit hungry jerks). Dont listen to the jedi in the thread.. they will complain about anything that doesnt give them an edge.


My advice to you is dont get caught up in the debates and forums flames but play the game and have fun.

Oh the Jedi. Oh dear god. Oh that's just funny. I especially like the one guy that said "Are we the only crafting profession that gets the shaft?" They craft a shiny stick and think they can call themselves a "crafting profession" instead of a "combat profession." Oh geez. Thanks, guys. I needed that this morning.

I will say, I was there recently. I was bitter and resented the devs. I still dislike that they removed BF rather than making it matter...

At that point I had to make a decision... accept the game as it is so I can keep playing it with my guild-mates, or give it up. I compromised by ditching my 2nd account, the combat toon, and switching to GW for my "combat fix." And I must say I am far happier now.

I'm not recommending this for everyone. But I think you either have to make peace with all the bone-headed decisions the devs have made and will keep making (oh yes, those are legion) and enjoy the game as it is, or give it up. They are not going to listen to us, and we just get frustrated and angry trying to make those who are quite evidently unreasonable, see reason.
