Well, we've got double XP to make up for the stramash yesterday, but toons are still losing connection and CTD'ing with spectacular frequency.

I actually had good fun this afternoon, putting on cammo and running about Bestine as a Rebel Comby without the 'troopers aggroing on me. Critters? Pah, I laughed in their face. Headed up to Naboo, did the same there, hunted and faction farmed for a little while before going off to buy one of the new multi-passenger Sorosuub speeders. Lost connection about four times in that 2hr session but hey, there y'go.

Unfortunately can't log in now for CTD'ing. Also TC-Prime hasn't been restored properly, somehow we've got the geography (player towns, buildings etc) for TC-Prime, but the character database is MIA.

Well, my rents are paid up on Live for a while (or the toons have monkey in their pockets). I knew I should of emptied my TC house before they mothballed us last week, but y'live and learn.

Until they manage to get this shambles sorted out I'm logging out of the game. I'll be sticking around the forums whinging randomly though...

Argh!! No way. You are a valued member of this community Amalgill. I hope you reconsider and let them work through the bugs.

Thanks for the ego massage, but I am giving them time to get the bugs fixed. They've got until my next bill is due and, if we're still going down faster than a chea***edited***cer in a bar, I'm gone.

I've been a TC regular for 18 months, and am really p'd at how the internal test/stage publish/live publish/hotfix publish cycle has been thrown out the window, effectively turning the Live servers into beta test beds. I am genuinely upset at the complete wrecking job tat's been done, consciously or unconsciously, on the TC community. Those folk in TCPA/Unity are among the friendliest, most helpful, best informed players on ANY server and instead of being seen as as asset by SOE they are being treated worse than something that Dallas Dickinson trod in on his way to work.

I've been a Live player for, uhm, three days less than TC, and am horrified at the state of the game after the past three publishes in particular. I've been a ranger for most of that time and a scout for all of it, but the state of the profession right now and the BS that's flying about? Well, I play this game to relieve stres, not collect more. I know folks are passionate about the game, but, until they get their heads out of their arses and actually see they are arguing the same thing and still managing to miss the big picture, I don't see the point in getting involved anymore. (Apologies to those of you whose heads are butt free, but you know what I mean)

On a personal note, just over two years ago I had a heart attack and still experience a fair bit of pain when I get stressed out over stuff. This past week or so I've had a couple of warnings and, to be honest, even I'm not dumb enough to end up killing myself by getting annoyed at a frelling game. Summers coming, my kids are growing up and I reckon I'd rather spend time shouting at them than you lot

Finally, if I can't get in to play, there's no way I'm going to play. I'll be lurking about the forum for a while though, making witty / sarcastic comments and flirting badly with teh laydeez.

My toons, at least the important ones, have got enough credits in their pockets to look after themselves and my houses for a while and I'll be admin-ing a couple of guildies. So, even if I do walk this time, I should be able to get back one day, when we've got a stable platform again.

Meh, you'll be informed enough to know when the time is right to come back. Everyone posts everything they can think of nowadays, just to get a reaction out of someone and think to themselves "see, I made a difference in someone's day by pissing them off!"

And I'll be right behind them, with the copy and past function in hand, to make sure they learn from it.

Look after yourself. I'll just work enough for one more person on getting this straightened out, if I can. And, with an alt account, anything is worth risking a banning once in a while .

I hope you have reason to stay/come back soon. You will be missed.

Thanks guys, (best wishes to your dad Bio),

am just *lurking* atm, which of course is why my post count is ticking up nicely, lol.
