Okay so they will only delete posts that break the rules in this thread. But what about other threads, are you saying normal policy is to delete anything that doesn't break the rules, but that the mods feel reflect the devs in a bad light? Cause that's what happens frequently, posts that do not break the rules but point out all the misleading and utter ignorance of the devs (I direct you to the SEA guide).
Now we're waiting for an expansion (that will cost more money) before even getting the game we ALREADY PAID FOR fixed.
That makes me a sad panda.

Just to add my voice to this:
Concentrating on the new expansion at the expense of a MUCH needed fix is WRONG.
We deserve to have what we were promised in NOVEMBER before we give you more money for an expansion.
I have never ever in my life seen such whining from people. This game is alot of fun even in its current state. I bought this game after being in beta and have enjoyed it completely. Sure there are bugs. I bet some of you still play UO and to this day (7 years later) are wondering how in the hell that game still has all the bugs it has and complain about it right? Yes, UO has been around for 7 years now and it full of bugs.
This game is only 1 year old and has far less bugs then UO. I think some of you need to get your priorities straight. This is just a game and if you don't like it then just quit and take a break.
I have waited for the space expansion for along time and this game seriously needs it to put the much needed Star Wars theme back there where it should have been at launch.
I have said what I needed to say, other then Great job Devs, I know your doing your best and cannot wait to get into space.
Typical SOE Fanboy post.

It would be different if Jump to Lightspeed was a free publish, but it is a new product that we will have to purchace. Asking us to wait even longer because you want to work on a new product instead of fixing the one we are payingfor is wrong is so many ways, can't you guys see that?
It's time to drop the montly fees. $15 a month is too much to pay for a product that is not being supported.
Exactly how i feel. except am paying 30 bucks

I understand that and I've asked the mods to NOT delete anything unless it breaks our posted community policies.

ok, 2nd try at posting in this thread....
Can we please discuss the way this forum is moderated? I'm an admin at a fairly active forum, with users of all ages. I understand the difficulties of moderating, but TH your moderators are way too heavy handed and unpredictable. The only reason for locking and/or deleting a thread is a clear violation of the rules. Uneven moderating, and locking threads for "damage control" is a bad way to handle things.
Our next major update, Publish 10 will bring us "The Jedi Trials". Finishing the revamp of the Jedi profession is a big task. Being a Jedi is a big part of the Star Wars experience and it is a big game system. To become a Jedi, there needs to be a known path with mysterious quests, new NPC’s, new NPC behaviors, new places and all the little things that will make The Jedi Trials a publish to be excited about. To accomplish this, the team has expanded the scope of publish 10 so there is more design time and more testing time (hence the big changes).
But then you came back and said
Before publish 10, we plan on launching the character transfer system
In Publish 9.2 We’re publishing Wookiee armor sets #2 and #3, new crafting quests and the second swoop race
Publish 9.3 will bring us the third swoop race
Publish 10 will be the Jedi Trials. This will be the new gateway to the Jedi profession that will by a mysterious path to unlocking Force sensitivity.
Publish 10.1 is going to bring us an exciting surprise and also a list of Correspondent requests
Publish 10.2 is focused on the entertainers which features a unique new game experience where entertainers, Dancers and Musicians can perform for an NPC audience for the reward of a new song and dance.
Publish 10 is slated for the end of August, but one of the reasons for these delays is to make as much room as possible for extra implementation and testing time.

Just wanted to point that out...is that a misprint somewhere?
