I am pleading with you all to stop and take a minute or two to read this post. It is clear that many of you are upset and frustrated with the game, and your point has definitely been made. So please do not reply in this thread with anymore negativity.
Do you all remember what it was like when you were a new player? For those of you who made SWG your first online game, do you remember the feeling of loading in for the first time and looking around at everything, amazed at the detail, and so curious to explore? Do you remember that first tell you got? The first person that helped you? The way it felt when you logged in and got a tell or an email from a newly made ingame friend? Do you remember what it felt like when you looted something that you had never seen before? When you looted that item that you found out you could sell for more credits than you could have made doing delivery missions or killing lairs? Do you remember the first time you made it to a novice elite profession box? The feeling you got wondering how long it was going to take to gain all that xp? Do you remember the way it felt to have your first decent set of armor? Your first good weapon? Your first house, your first droid or pet, or even your first swoop? Do you rememberwhen you filled out your template forthe first time.. PvP'd for the first time.. solo'd something difficult for the first time? Do you remember that firstbigplayer event.. that group that you had so much fun in killing NS..the guild that made you laugh and always helped you out?
There are hundreds of people right now that are new players in this game. I know that a lot of them haven't discovered the forums yet, but some have.If you were a "noob" right now, would you want to come here and see this?Would you want the beginning of a lot of great memories to be started with this kind of negativity? What everyone has postedin this forum has been pointless. The Devs already know that a lot of people are frustrated. It's time for everyone to calm down, and remember how they got here. Remember all the great things about SWG andrespect that.Be positive and constructive and you will make a difference.Continueyelling and screamingand you will be shut out. It may not be what you want to hear, but it is the way things work.
If you want to have fun in the game, and you can't do so with combatright now, then why don't you go find a new player and help him/her out. Give them some credits, show them around, immerse yourself back into the feel ofthe game you once knew. Give the devs help by posting suggestions, and by respecting the opinions of others and being constructive, and in time you will have a game thatyou can behappy with.
Again I am going to ask that you do not reply in this thread with negative posts or flames. That is not what this thread is about. If you feel the need to do that, please take it elsewhere.
Too long, I have unimportant unfulfilling flaming to do. Laate'
Well it may not be the same for you, but I come across lots of new players that are still amazed by it. Honestly, if everything were the way it was, just as many people would be screaming for change and revamp and balance. Yes, things are a bit messed up right now, but everyone needs to have patience. Doing the kind of work that the Devs do is not easy, nor is it something they can just do overnight. Be constructive and helpful and things will get better. Jedi players need to use this forum to offer suggestions for change and respect eachother in the process. That is the only way your opinions are going to make a difference. It's pointless for dozens of people to keep whining in post after post. They need to grow up a bit and aproach all of this differently if they want to have a game that they can enjoy again.

The very factors that you mention, which are all true for me, are the very reason that I can no longer be quiet. This game is no longer the game of wonderment and fascination that i fell in love with, it is an abomination of all that is Star Wars and deserves to rot in the depths of Hell with the Spice Girls....

Okay, you have a jedi.. Do you actually play on him? Or do you run around and help your little nooby friends on your alt?
Most new players aren't too concerned with the Jedi balance problem. Yes I suppose all of this could effect them in the future, but again, if you all (who want to keep playing SWG) would stop for a minute and realize how pointless all of this is and start being constructive then you would make a huge difference for yourselves and them. It only takes one bad egg I guess though.. but that egg can be silenced. Change your attitudes and try to ENJOY this GAME that you play. It isa game after all. Right?

Yes I would. After my experience here, I checked the WoW forums before going out and buy the game. Wish I had done the same for this game.
Sally Struthers told me to tell you to stop being mean.

I said it before and I will say it again. You are a Dev in disguise. You tell us to put our hardships and feelings aside due to the fact there are newbie players that wont see this? So SOE of you to say. As in this is exactly what the devs are trying to do. Get rid of the old and cater to the new that didnt have over 2 years of empty promises and nerfs. Patience. Ok. Life is too short to have patience on this game.
Just like the whole Coke vs. Pepsi in 1985.
