Thread: No more Why do the Devs ignore us threads...
No, I think he is saying that after almost a whole year of the devs promising to fix us and stating that they are "listening" to us, it is high time that we DEMANDED it. Demanding to have the class fixed after this long is NOT flaming, and its NOT whining. 366 days (leapyear) is PLENTY of time to fix at LEAST some small bugs that plague our class. If anything you people who get onto us for saying something about it are the whiners and sissys, not us. Grow some balls and stand up for our class.
As for myself I am going to post in other forums as well until something is done or my account is banned.

So are you denying the fact that we have been ignored? Where have I denied this? Is it not true we were told we would be revamped almost a year ago and since then nothing has happened? Show me where were were ever promised a revamp. When Holocron posted his Corr Feedback post, they weren't even doing 'Revamps' yet. Why is it counterproductive to remind them what we were told? Remind away, I neve said you couldn't do that.

I'd rather they work on us slowly, then give us a botch-job.
Yeah aslong as we get some in depth and detailed features im happy as i can be. Dont mind waiting for them if we get something rewarding at the end of it.
Most of us (including myself) would agree. The problem is we are not getting worked on at all, zero, nodda, zilch, non, nothing, goose egg. Nor is anything even on the horizon.
Back to the topic. I agree I don't care for the "wwwaaaa the devs hate us wwwaaa" posts. The devs don't hate us and are not out to **edit** us. But do we get enough of those annoying posts to actually warrant a sticky thread on it? Is our community that bad and abunch of cry babies? I don't think so. We do and get a lot less whining that most of the other boards. Personally I think Calc just needed to vent a bit... venting done. Now let's let the thread drop into the murky deep. no sticky needed.

Hey if I can sit in camps and do the entire scout survival tree and the ranger frontiering tree all alone in a reclusive area of dath then I think I can wait for changes to be made. I'm in no hurry, so you won't hear me complaining. I like what I'm doing with my Ranger right now.
Good. But not to down play you, but how long have you been a ranger? I have worked for it since day one of the game starting as scout. and have heald master ranger since I got it, about 7-8 months ago. I'm tired of waiting.
3 in the last 2 weeks...

Umm it has beena year. Game came out a year ago June 26th, and the last time we got any attention and was dropped without completing it or even a goodby, was Aug. Nearly a year from now.

I agree with Calc on this one. Frankly I rather wait a year for changes then have our board resemble the BH or (shudder) the Jedi board. The BH board actually has Garvas rules and regulations STICKIED. That is a big yellow caution sign for me - you do not want to go there.
The only time I ever click on the flame posts is when I am in a grumpy mood and want to yell at someone lol. Ya, I know. Not helping.
Otherwise I just ignore them. I wish there was a button I could press to make them dissapear for my screen so there is more room for the interesting/informational posts.

Yes you are right Calc, they weren't doing revamps back then, they didnt exist yet. And Holo moved on to a different position. But neither of those reasons are valid enough for us to get ignored. Heck, we didn't even get Holo or anyone to come say "hey sorry, Holo got promoted, we got other things to work on, sorry we can't continue with you right now". That is pretty disrespectful actually. The fact that they weren't doing "official revamps" basically means they stopped us short in the middle of an "old revamp". That is one way to look at it.
I feel for you right now Calc with the flak you are now getting. But imagine if in the middle of this smuggler revamp, they get like 2 new things(ie /conceal /areatrack) and then nothing more, not even a goodby, or sorry, or be back later from the devs. Just crickets. Can you imagine just how pissed off the smugglers would be, and rightfully so, if that happened. That's basically what happened to us though, and we are supposed to keep quite now. It's been nearly a year since Holo's post and the work we did get. And in that year we have been quite, and constructive and calm, and curtious. I'm tired of it.
Folks I'm not saying have them run in here, make some fast and furious changes and blow out. No. I want to be told we will get work, AND WHEN, exactly. I do want a nice proper slow, testing, feedback get it right type dev time for us. Anyone remember how fast they actually got /conceal and /areatrack into the game? Pretty damn fast actually. Now maybe it was already partially coded, and was the stuff that didn't get finished before launch. The point being, we need work just the same as other professions that got or are getting revamps and are on the actual schedule. I think we need more work actually then some, but thats MHO.
Calc, do you really think our "correspondant issues" time is going to be enough for all that ranger is lacking right now? I'm asking your opinion of what you truely feel ranger needs. Do you feel it needs a full ravamp or just some tweeking here and there to go in on a mini publish?
