- We're going to rework the skilltrees for you
- We want things to improve for you as quickly as we can
- We assure you we're working as hard as we can on your issues
So...smugglers get Devs posting on their forums apologizing for delays, and Bounty Hunters get Devs comforting them and offering them immediate change to help fix "problems" with their profession that were just introduced today.
Meanwhile we sit here in the Music forums without a single Dev post about fixing our issues which have plagued us for nearly a full year. Just further proof the Devs simply...don't...care. 
My first character on tarq had some novice entertainer because there was not often one to be found in Restus on Rori. And when I cured the BF and wound of visitors they tipped generously and chatted with me during performance.
Bounty hunters are only in "bad shape" when compared to the new Jedis on bounty, or what they so zealously call the end game. But you se... know one but entertainers are hurt by afk'ers or bufbot's, know one is harmed by the lack of tunes and instruments but us, and no other profession is so involved in socialising. It is the belonging to a community, which make people stick around after they run out of contend, and as we are the ones doing the social thing the most we will have a stronger community feel.
A disgruntled musician is far less likely to quit then a disgruntled BH or Jedi, so SoE take care of the BH's and Jedi's.
Well I just hope that Jedi's wil get a lot of BF all the time. That way we can perhaps get a little bit of business. Oh and can we lobby for more powerful mind decides for the CM's?

Sorry about the little rant there...I'm not just frustrated with the Devs, but also with the way the community itself seems to be fracturing more and more. I waxed on about it a little in the dance forums on a thread that Jeassa closed...probably with pretty good reason.
Anyway, back to my usual tactful self.
It's okay bud. We all know what you're feeling. *pats back* It's okay to let it all out once in awhile.
What I don't get, is that I'm seeing the same exact posts of frustrated entertainers. It just shows how committed we are to the exact same problems. And we all have solutions for them too. It's not like a Dev can glance at this forum and NOT see the issues we have. It seems that no matter what we post here, a Dev will not see it. (Case in point Warrywr, our official Musician Dev Pro tempore.) That is why I believe our only way for informing the Devs of any of our problems is via Warplex's post. I myself am quite a fan of tossing bricks through windows with messages attached, but I wouldn't suggest it. 
Silly me, thinking that the Devs could actually do something for us.....

hehe I tend to rant a little too often, but then I've never been one for passive resistance.

Yes, bricks through windows wouldn't be the most mature way to be heard, but sometimes it seems like it might be the only way...I think I'll settle for trying letter writing though.
Also, when I first read the title of the thread, I really thought it referred to Musicians. Needless to say I was a little peeved.
Ah, yes. I originally had it titled exactly how JustG had his post titled about asking how to help BH's right now, but then I thought better of it and changed to this--cheap trick to get more readers I suppose.

The devs only care about jedi these days. BH is getting some (well deserved) attention because they are directly tied to jedi in this game.
In the end... the entertainer professions just don't matter to them.
I agree. We don't.
And they will do nothing to persuade us otherwise, so it would seem.
All Hail Warryyr, King of Exemplifying the Devs' Inattentiveness to Entertainers (see my sig)!
Hell, I've even posted in reply to the 19 Questions threads, and to the Entertainer Quest threads, and never gotten anything regarding my sig. I don't think anyone reads these forums. Do YOU guys read these forums? Is this all actually just computer generated?
