Tavian_McMaster, you are only speaking for yourself
I would rather see the Dev Tracker expanding to moderators too, then anything else like reducing it.
No, he isn't.
They can put everyone else's chit-chat in some other tracker (maybe one named "Other SOE/LA Chit-Chat"), but I only want to see DEV posts in the DEV TRACKER.
It's 10:40 p.m saturday night and at the time of this writing the login servers are down.
It's been 10 months devs since the game went live devs and we still have problems like this ona regular basis.
It's been 10 months guys. . . . .
Rangers, Bounty Hunters, Commandos, and ANY other profession that is tired of new content and excuses coming before any issues have been fixed should unite to present one common voice. We need to SHOUT loud enough as one so that the deaf ears will listen. All new content should cease until the professions have been fixed. Fix the broken professions or remove them.

Today was my first day to play the game since beta (and I really don't remember anything about it, so it's pretty much my first time ever). Taking me a while to get used to it since I've been playing FFXI since the PC launch, but here were a few things I noticed:
1. In the "New Player Tutorial" (not the droid, but the actual tutorial), the Imperial Officer at the end still makes a reference about you getting to choose which planet you want to go to. Might want to change this since it forces everyone into Mos Eisley now.
2. While fighting things outside Mos Eisley, my droid would keep getting stuck in rocks and the only way I could figure out to get him unstuck was via storing and and then calling him again. Kinda annoying after the third time it happened...
3. Does the droid really need to bug me each time I pull him out/log on? Maybe this does go away after a while, but I have to keep closing out of boxes that I already know what they say and it doesn't help me by reading them again.
So far, no big complaints. Then again, I haven't really progressed any and experienced the things everyone else is yelling about...
I would also like to know what you are doing about the storage issue. I know many players that have second accounts just to put more houses down for storage purposes. Those of us that play multiple online games can not all afford this option. Also why buy a large house when you can't use all the space. We all love decorating and would like the space to do it..
Bikes - Please reduce the repair cost or give artisan's a repair kit they can sell to fix the things. It costs me 6k to repair a bike that I can buy a brand new on for the same price. Not to mention the rate of decay. I would have to buy a new bike every 3 days after steady use. Mounts are an option but are not as fast, causing you to be overtaken by npc's. Many of my group have gone back to walking to avoid bike decay and repair costs. It just makes no sense in SWG to be walking everywhere. This is a space age and there should be a reasonable solution.
This may not be the place to ask about this, but.. a while back I say you TH make a reference to a droid commander. What is the status of that happening, if at all. I know quite a few that thought that was a great idea. I have heard nothing on it since then though.
i'm Dasrth Ryo, leader of a 40 poeple PA on Eclipse server, and manager (designer) of a city on naboo (-1003, -6492)
since we didn't know, we missed 2 citizen and didn't got updated to rank 4.. but we had new recruit pending and we could have accelerated this recruiting... now we are 59, a 10 poeple guild is waiting to see if we have a shuttle to join us...
So, I refuse to choose closest because i dont need to be healing, but by choosing pre-designated, you get labeled as an exploiter/cheater until the battle was over andyou can head to the nearest city and clone yourself again.

Are NPCs ever going to be able to use vehicles and/or mounts?
