On the smuggler thread:


A lot of them don't seem to know how this would affect them directly.According toAllakhazam, nothing inSpices IV uses any creature resources, and those are about the only spices that there is a market for. Your average smuggler probably never uses any organics for himself.







Any of the Smugglers with Smuggling 4 have almost certainly used organics to get there. And one of the posters actually mentioned needing some Scaley Hide from Calc.

It's not THAT bad. Although I'm starting to think you might have been right. Although the majority seems to be in favor of it I'm having a bit of trouble pushing them off the "what will you do for us" idea. I just want to make sure I'm not being either too pushy or too weak about it. But whatever. My imaginary Ranger already has his flame resistant skin.

No, and Smuggler has by far been the worst response. No big deal...it sounds like they want it to go away, so let it die if you want. I will say that I had my reservations about posting on the different forums. You certainly saw some of the "Why is this a <insert profession here> concern?" from some of them. But all in all the response has been positive. Will the devs respond? As always..maybe. I will certainly reference those threads when I post our arguement on the Corr forum.

Instead of bombarding other profession boards, how about we do this in the In Development board, or the In Concept board. Those that want to support us can do so in there and we know that the devs actually read those, and they are our primary target. Let's focus our energy in the right place.

First off, we can't post in those boards. Only the Devs can start a post in there. Posting a regular post in there has never really done much. Hence this idea came along. And, so far, we seem to be getting a decent amount of support.

I'm not talking about starting a post there. I'm talking about a regular one. And as for it not being noticed, I disagree. If every ranger posted in there every week, there is no way we could be ignored. That is how the other professions get love from the devs and why we haven't. We need to step up and speak up for ourselves.

I know that in one thread there were about 15 posts from Rangers. Not a single one got a response. And they all asked pretty much the same question. TH just picks the easy stuff to respond to. They know we have a problem. Informing them is not the problem right now. I doubt any player reads all the posts in that thread. Ignoring stuff is not that hard to do.

Hey Calc, I think I figured out why a lot of the Smugglers seem a bit hesitant with the thread. Given the timing, they thought we were trying to get them to put it into their revamp plans. It might be worth adding a small disclaimer to the bottom of the top post to make sure they realize that we are only looking for their support, not for them to actually push it in their proposals. Maybe something like: "Just to make sure this is a bit clearer, we are not doing this to try and get in on your revamp. That is for you. We are trying to get the support of all the crafters that use organics in any of their schematics (like you do in some of your spices). This is just to show the Devs that Rangers and Scouts are not the only ones who think that there is a problem with the current resource availabilities. Sorry for any confusion this might have caused."

Actually Nemo0 basically championed this idea, we just used the blue name to make it more noticeable (are you more likely to respond to a Corr or an everyday schmuck? No offense Nemo )

Just a friendly reminder to make sure to check in on your threads. This has dropped down the page quite a bit and, even though it is stickied, I thought I'd just make sure people remembered it.

Hey everyone, back from a few days of entertaining dutch people (so cool) and checked the thread on the chef forums again to see it had fallen of page one.. I have some more to add to that thread but it really isn't anything new that we haven't already discussed, I'm just going over things like the farming idea (don't like it) and milking (it's silly), which isn't what the threads were orginially about although its not totally off topic.. I am a little reserved.. Just wanted to know the score on the bumping of these threads, if we want to breathe a little life in them I could go round and offer up an opinion or two in each of them as I think only two of them are currently floating in prime time viewing space..


Iread through all of the threads and apart from a few minor fires all in all it looks like everyone agree's and also everyone thinks that our profession is completely pants.. Hopefully now we have more professions telling the Dev's we suck at what we doand organics harvesting needs something done sooner rather than later to cope with increasing demand they will believe us
