In that post i begged for Image Design to not become mandatory. People had the option of coming to us and we enjoyed making people look pretty. I was a bit off with the request, i thought they were going to start making peope fat with chef foods, i had no idea that they would do what they did with our "revamp".


Several of us requested that if we HAD to have a critical ingame function, we wanted the ability to make stat migration happen faster. I dont recall anyone ever saying that they wanted the SOLE ability to move people's stats around.


Last night, I thought i would try to go to the tent in Theed. I went that direction and while running through the city past the cantina, someone saw my Master Image Designer title. That person (who is now on ignore) said "f*cking image designer, thanks for the nerf b*tch!"... like i really had anything to do with it. Needless to say i turned around and stayed well away from that tent, i went back to my house (where i always work from because i cant handle the lag in theed) and logged out.


So thank you devs, thank you for taking a profession that was completely voluntary and fun and turning it into a largely resented profession. Thank you for not listening to us when we SCREAMED that we didnt want the SOLE ability to migrate stats, thank you for ignoring us when we said it would be neat to make it happen faster.


Thank you for adding a timer to something as trivial as image design. Yes, i said trivial because when the dust settles it doesnt matter what you looked like when you blew up the other person. Thanks for making us all wait for lip color changes and body modifications. Thank you for giving us the SOLE ability to migrate stats and THEN making it so freaking hard to master image design that we may never see another Master..... there werent very many of us to begin with.


Most importantly, thank you for these changes and the resentment because i was able to not play the game and watch the final episode of Frasier.


Kwee is doing a great job relaying our wishes, I just hope youre listening to her.


p.s. The timer stinks, with the new UI its not needed.

I have mixed feels towards your post, I feel for you and also I really don't believe that you are a true IDer if one at all.


IF some-one did say that to you, you should have reported them and they will be kicked out of the game.


Sense you feel this is a trivial profession, its obvious you don't play an IDer, you may have the title do to a Holocron but that means nothing to me.

Sorry


I guess I'm getting too touchy after reading so many troll post saying we are trivial and useless...etc etc etc


Again I'm Sorry


P.S. I agree "Forced critical function" for us was a bad idea.

myself i am happy with most of the changes



if you dont wanna do migrations dont



there are many other IDs out there to do em



i think almost anything they can give us helps us, and i see the reasoning behind migration



those who say "screw image designers, you caused a nerf"


no we didnt. did you cause a nerf as a weaponsmith that the "illegal" acklay bones and weapons made from them were confiscated?


also for those who say we have no resource cost it should be free(which i dont agree with but lets agree for the moment)

then bone, hide, and meat should be free because killing a womprat and skinning it has no overhead

SMI!!!!! Youre purple because i left you that way and you KNOW that there are other colors now.... so you could get something worse


Sir Voor, when i said trivial i didnt mean it as an insult to you or the rest of the community (myself included). Ive posted several times saying that i believe Image Designer was a straight "fun" profession, void of hassles like crafting because of what it is. Trivial doesnt mean bad, some of the most fun things we do in life are trivial. Maybe trivial isnt the best way to describe it, but I hope everyone knows what i mean (or what i think i mean).

Voor, I'm disappointed in you. You should know Marinha, she's been posting here forever. Longer than you, if memory serves me correctly.


We do not need to turn on each other in this difficult time. It's easy to do, and it's hard to stop.
