How about this then, have you ever gotten a $200 charge to your credit card for a purchase you did not make? Would you shrug that off? Or would you call and say "I think there is a mistake here?"
"There is no point in complaining about matters you have no control over."
Think about it... the things you mentioned.. YOU DO HAVE CONTROL OVER!!!!!!!!!!!
You have no control over the game and you never will!!! if you dont like it cancel your account and/or do something else with your time
You are assuming we the subscribers have no control?
That would be like saying that Coca-Cola drinkers would have no control over what Coke productwas being made. When Coca-Cola released "New Coke", the public reception was so awful that went back and reintroduced Coca-Cola Classic.
So I am assuming, you would be telling Coca-Cola drinkers in 1985 that they have no control over it, and not to complain.
That would obviously be wrong, customers always haveinfluence over a product.
i liked my
"nerf the devs" idea
they cant code if they dont have jobs
cancelled all my subs,preorders,and ten my guild leaving as well,with all theres.
my nerf lasts longers then any they can code
vote with visa,nerf the devs

back then coke didnt have competitors... so no one could switch to pepsi... and NO ONE liked the new coke... it was a 90%+ protest and more.... all i see here is complaints on forums... nothing nearly as big as the coke protests... and anyways... the population is against and complain is less than 70% undoubtedly

Did 10,000 canceled accounts and endless petitions/complaining get us back the PRE CU game?? No, it didnt. Im not saying the game isnt flawed and that playing it right now doesnt suck because it sure as he!! does....but we arent getting anywhere coming here and threatening the admins and devs....and just bothering everyone with out excessive whining and complaining.
Programming in games like this is very complicated, even when they know exactly what it wrong...it takes tome to locate and properly fix the problem. One wrong move can mess up more aspects of the game. It is just that.........A GAME. We cant expect it to be 100% perfect. >< Would be nice sure......but that is unrealistic.
Am I happy that my jedi is a walking target(well ok Im a healer lol....always been a walking target
), no, not at all. But Im not whining about it. Im trying to be constructive and help cool people down...so that we can all work thru this and try to find a way to live with the changes till they get fixed or whatever.
Even you have to admit that with all the junk on the front page it is really hard to come here and try to find some USEFUL info about the changes and what works/doesnt work etc etc. It is just a bunch of people yelling about their jedi being powerless and broken. That doesnt help any of us.......now does it? It also doesnt help us to sit here and call each other tards for having diff points of view. If we were all exactly alike...what fun would that be?
Everyone just needs to do something relaxing and chill for a bit. See how things pan out. It is all we can really do. Things cant and wont be fixed overnight unfortunately. ><
Well, perhaps I am misinterpreting your desire to have a constructive forum as something else like blind faith in the Development of the game. At this time, I think management, development deserve some real strong and constructive criticism. Voicing our opinions is important right now, and we deserve answers.
I agree that some of the threads are out of hand, but it is very difficult for a very large group of people to come together and create on strong voice. Everyone has different feelings about the way things are.

Ok, not really.....but you'd think it was if you looked at all the threads on the front page of these forums. Dang.......how's a gal supposed to find out any USEFUL info here? All I see is whine...whine....whine. Ya'll want some cheese to go with those whines?
Seriously folks......to quote your seemingly favorite Admin Garva.......making all these useless whining threads is not going to get you anywhere. They KNOW how unhappy you are, telling them a million more times is not going to help. The only thing you are gonna get out of it is some deleted threads and prolly an account suspension.
If you people are seriously that unhappy.....do the rest of us a favor and go cancel your accounts. Dont come here and cry and try to depress everyone else. Some of us still enjoy playing the game we all spend our $15 a month for. Am I saying you dont have the freedom to express your opinions?....not at all. I just think everyone is going about it wrong. Try telling Garva and Tiggs and the other admins what the probs are with the patch CONSTRUCTIVELY not destructively (all these kill the devs and whatnot threads are really retarded people, ease up. sheesh). Submit your bug reports....and whatnot and then sit back and pray everything falls into place and gets taken care of.
Gonna leave everyone with a quote that someone used to tell me a lot (yes, Im as impatient as the next person and like to complain as much as the next.....but Im trying, you can too). "There is no point in complaining about matters you have no control over." And this is unfortunately very true.
Now get on your alts, grind out a nice FOTM temp or whatever your heart desires and try to go have some fun for a bit. It wont kill you to shelf the jedi for a few days while things hopefully get sorted out and we all get an idea of what is going on and how to deal with/live with the changes.
ZOMG! I lived thru the CU AND all the nerfs and havent lost any sleep!
While I wish the quote in red was true, you, I and everyone else that has been here for more than a year know this to be false. I wish I still had it in my sig, but don't you remember the quote from Mr. Blackman?
It was along the lines of, "Only the people who are unhappy post on the forums. Everyone in-game, 95% of the populace, is happy with everything."
If we don't post and keep posting until they respond, they'll simply use our lack of complaints to emphasize how happy everyone is.
exactly... so why choose one side and press others to believe it?

Coke was losing it's market share to Pepsi at that time, yes they did have competitors...a very strong one. Remember the blind taste tests, where Pepsi always beating Coke when they surveyed Coke drinkers? Well Coca-cola developed "New Coke" that was beating Pepsi in blind taste tests. So they released "New Coke" expecting to once again dominate. Lucikly for them, they have toll free numbers on their products, and they were alerted to widespread discontent with the product. They actually listened, brought back Coca-Cola Classic despite the expensesfor thehuge advertising costs, R&D, andproduction. They did the right thing, and listened to their customers.
How do we know exactly what the population is agains't right now...with no way of collecting the data. It's all guesswork now, and neither you or I have any real idea.
