Yay! I can finally start posting my blackmail pictures of Tiggs!

*starts looking through his collection*

Strange, I could have sworn they were in here somewhere.......



Inside my heart is breaking, my make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on
My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die
I can fly - my friends

We are all in the same boat, some just have a better seat. 9 songs, 10 if you are also a Master Entertainer, Entertainer missions with Max payouts of 200 credits, even for a Master, and most want you to go 6000m away to play for a minimum of 10 minutes to get paid. With the exception of tips or picking up a Combat skill, pure Entertainers are over the barrel. We were told there were quite a few new songs in the pipes way back when, but same as with the Smugglers we were told they would be in at a later date. We are still waiting. And now we get a new song and a new dance, but we have to jump thru some hoops in a quest that if you read on the entertainers boards about, you will see how many people are unhappy with it.


Well now that Tiggs is here, maybe we can get even more information flowing, and that will benefit us all.


I apologize if my posts have been negative, I really do hold out a lot of hope for the future, and I am really looking forward to JTL






I feel your pain; really. I think I could bring the other 30+ profession leaders to this thread and they will all chime out in unison. Then add the topical leaders (e.g., GCW, etc.) to the mix and you'd have a room full of people all seeking individual attention for their collective causes. Your passion for the entertainer cause is understandable. I have friends that are bio-engineers that don't have skill tapes, armor attachments, or items that give bonuses. The BE profession hasn't been given any real attention. I have friends that are rangers, squad leaders, and carbine specialists. They too, want attention.


In my opinion, no single profession is perfect; though some are clearly in better condition than others. If SOE were 30 times bigger and was able to address everyone, then we'd all be better off. I think the whole "jedi" issue distracted from the game far too much. Considering jedi were suppose to be rare, it is ironic how everything has ended up revolving around them. However, I'm not going to bash jedi. What has happened, has happened.


SOE has addressed many areas that they felt had to be covered. They fulfilled promises to provide mounts, vehicles, and player cities. They are going to release a space expansion pack. They addressed jedi; though this probably became more than they originally intended to do. Now.. ..hopefully.. ..they can get back to the grass roots of this game. With all of these things they "had" to do now completed, maybe they can now fix the professions, add content, provide balance, and (more importantly) restore the fun factor.






Truisms are true, hold on to that! The solid world exists, its laws do not change. Stones are hard, water is wet, objects unsupported fall towards the earth's centre.

If that is granted, all else follows.

Hey will you guys ##censored## about smugglers.


Just in case you didn't know it. Smuggler is FOTM for fs craft grinding.


(Not that any smuggler in their right mind would take fs crafting skills, when they can take persuassion (how does that affect buying faction?), or actually get some mods which they can use in combat...)


If you doubt it read this --

And at least low blow works! Try being a carbineer - they get no wookiee dev love. And that's a elite combat class (LOL - JUST KIDDING!! You hybrid elite combat dudes. I want a 35% damage slice on my krayt scatter pistol. No I only have one, what do you mean a speed slice??)

Would you care to test out a 400 year old sword to see if it's decayed to condition 0? All the prior testers have no comment. Perhaps a gun which was used in WW I and still fires with high accuracy upto 1km?

If that doesn't get you, then start reading current military specifications for combat equipment.

Tiggs--


Here's a little History as to WHY Smugglers feel like we've been lied to, spit on, and generally ignored by the guys with RED names around here since LAST August. Yet Blackman can't seem to figure out why we feel as though we've been misled.


I hope you'll be able to come in with a fresh perspective and not follow in the footsteps of those who have come before you...

Welcome Tiggs, it is nice to see you on board, and I would like to apologize for people like Azhnykk, who obviously have too much time on their hands and too little ability to think about what they post. I hope to see you around the boards and maybe in game from time to time(please dont kill me ) Good luck to you.

Do not be too hopeful. You are likely to be disappointed.

Tiggs... did you run the Alphaville Community Center on Alphaville on TSO? If so... that was one great lot(my favorite actually)! I quit the game for swg though, could only have one online game at a time


And if you are not the same person... well, welcome to the game anyway

First of all I am not an ass kisser, i am however an employer and I feel that everyone should have a good first day with out having to be subjected to abuse. Second of all I could care less about beta, I dont really have the time to decently work on any beta testing so I would rather have it go to someone who would work at finding the bugs and helping to fix the game.


And in response, obviously you felt the need to respond to my thread as you didnt like what i said, my isn't that a case of the kettle calling the pot black. Honestly I have seen several of your posts today and have yet to see much that is constructive to the game itself. If you dont like the game then post something that will help to get it working better, I enjoy the game myself but I am very much aware of the bugs in it. However I do not see why showing some courtesy and politeness is seen as being an ass kisser or brown noser. You catch a lot more flies using honey than using vinegar. I am sorry if you disliked my post, but then again that is my opinion, I am entitled to it and you are entitled to yours. I never said you were not. I just think there are better ways to get your point across than mindless trolling and flaming.


Oh and thanks for the one star as I am pretty sure that was your attempt at lashing out at me. I am so hurt now i dont have a perfect star rating
