Are we going to have to go thru this at least once a page?

THe people working on the forum are NOT the same people working on the game!

i haven't read all the pages, but why the hell is time and effort being put into this dribble? what about your broken ass game? I see TH posting in this thread and it makes me think "oh good, he's finished his issues that have come to his desk and has time to post in this useless thread" and then i remember it's SOE and he either has no desk or doesn't care what's on it.

Thunderheart posted in this thread. Why would he do this when he has so much that he's left unanswered? there are so many productive posts and threads he could be making, including apologies to certain profession boards, and he decides to waste his time here? yikes this is worse than i thought
Why is TH repsonding to this thread?
Hmmm...Maybe it's because of his actual job title....Ever read his sig? Whatever relates to the community is his job. Be it the forum, or whatever the Devs/QA/Legal let him tell us.

i'm just saying he'd do well to relate to the community, who pay for the game and the forums come free, what's going on in the game. I know his post was small, but that's time that he could use for so many other, much more productive posts concerning the actual game. There are so many posts he needs to be making that any time wasted on stuff like this just upsets me even more. Where's our communication? Where are our details? We're all holding our breath for this combat balance, which I personally and honestly dont think will come before they go broke, and we don't even know why anymore.

Ok....Apparantly you don't understand (and I am not trying to pick on you for this...just trying to explain...)
As TH and Q had stated several times before...He is just a messenger. Anything he says has to be cleared by SOE Legal, AND LucasArts before he can relay it to us. There is so much they want to tell us, but Legal Department won't let them, until it's been approved by the QA and Legal Departments at both SOE and Lucas.
He can't give us information that they haven't approved. Same goes with GarVa. They kinda like their jobs...so they are going to stick by the rules.

My concern about the star system is that there seem to be a lot of 1 star trolls around. One day on the ID forum some guy came through and made all the ID posts for that day 1 stars. It was stupid. Kinda makes the rating system worthless.

Fair enough. If the legal department is in essence limiting what he can tell us, which further limits what he actually does at work everyday, I see why he's posting in a thread like this. However, now I have a grudge against their Legal Department. LOL
