Bac,
I understand how daunting (especially as of late) your position must be for you. Alot of flames have been unjustly coming your way. From alot of the posts I have been reading it seems alot of people are asking for something we just are not seeing. Your input. I am not flaming you nor trying to tell you how to do anything, but personally and from what I am hearingto decrease the drama you may need to be more prevelant.I know you don't want to lose your position and nor would I, but right now especially it might be more prudent to be a tad more outspoken about your personal thoughts. I am not asking for a play by play, but if you are as "silent" as the Devs are about what you are doing and saying people are going to continue to assume things and come to their own conclusions.
Yes, I know another corrospondent will probably post something along the lines of "he is not allowed to say much." I personally beleive thats a CHOICE not a direct stipulation of the position. Some of the other correspondents let their thoughts and opinions known on a daily basis, and even if he cannot discuss things because of an NDA or whatnot, he could say "I was discussing the"blank" this week with the Devs, and will let you all know if I can post what they had to say or IF they have something to say here."
Another example would not to be so much taking the Dev's side..... I am refering to your post on the Beta forums refering to the Avoid Incap change as a "fix" (which btw we have never gotten a response for). Heck, that to me had the term nerf all over it.
I know to some it would seem like a waste of a post, but to others it would give them the impression "Hey this guy is still pushin for what needs to be done," and most of us can respect that.
Bac, I think your doin a fairly good job, I am just suggesting maybe stepping out of the box a lil and "quelling the uprisings" by upping the level of communication. No doubt I will get flamed by this, but please note my intent of writing this is to help our corro out and vicariously help all jedi in the game out.
I also ask that if others with CONSTUCTIVE and REALISTIC feedback or suggestions for our Jedi Correspondent please post them below. I ask if you have a flame to just hold your breath on this one - I know someone will not agree with this post, but with all the negativity maybe this is a change that is needed no? Anyways, have a nice day!

Tanks, even though he had some pretty out-there opinions was still very clear on where he stood on EVERY issue and what he thought things should be like. That is what I personally would like to see from Bac a little more.
