Droid Engineer Archive

Hello. For those of you who do not know me, my character name is Woodrow Acktoe. I'm the current organizational head of the Droid Engineer Association on the server Ahazi. On our server all (or at least almost all) the Droid Engineers have gathered together under a single entity, the Droid Engineer Association, and now all share a common mailing list as well as get together regularly to help one another out and decide on the best cources of action for the profession on our server.

As obvious, we have been affected by the crippling crafting station module bug. We have decided to take matters into our own hands and make sure that the devs hear our voice this time. I have just put out an email asking all DEs on our server to file a bug report, and will be issuing the same requestto the DEs on the server at regular intervals until this matter is corrected.

They say that the squeeky wheel gets the grease. Well, for the first time (at least on our server) we can provide a concerted unified squeek. However, I still don't know if we few on one server will be enough to make the noise needed so therefore I am now issuing a request to all the Droid Engineers on all the servers to file a similar request stating clearly that the Droid Engineer profession has been hopelessly crippled as crafters were our last market. With the nerfing of the combat droid we lost our combat market, and now with this bugging of the crafting modules we've lost our crafter market. With no markets left and no value in being a Droid Engineerthat you couldn't get from not being a Droid Engineer, this profession no longer functions AT ALL.

I'm not here to debatewhether this is a good or a bad thing (though universally I've found everyone says it's a bad thing). If you want to flame, rant, or in any way disagree, then post on another thread. This is here to get all Droid Engineers to stand up for themselves in a unified way. The DEVs have only given us lip service. However, if we constantly keep pooling the resources of their bug report/help desk department, that same department will then have no choice but join our side and force the devs to fix the situation. Trust me, I work at a help desk and this is the best (if only) way I've seen work in this game that gets things fixed. The only thing that is needed is enough of a voice to get the message to the forefront of their concerns. We have to pull together people

I'm totally with you! DEVS, FIX IT PLEASE!

Alright. It has been reported that Blair has posted that hte crafting station issue is indeed a bug, and is slated to be fixed soon. As such, no further bug reports are necessary.

Wow, I have to say, that was quick. Obviously it probably has little to do with the efforts outlined in this thread, but still, I have never seen the Devs move with such speed. Kudos to them, and to anyone who did file a bug report anyway. It is at a minimum a test to show that our voice can be focused, and with it a single clear loud message. Again, thankyou those that put up your bug reports (probably just all of us on the Ahazi server, but still) as well.
