Ok I keep reading posts and now I'm really confused about you players.
Snipers? We have two entire trees dedicated to being a sniper. One is offensive and the other is defensive. The Counter-Sniping tree states that the abilities come through an enhanced knowledge of how a sniper operates in order to counter them.
Great, except there are already so many threads titled clever things like "Snipers? NO!!!!1111 WE AREW NOT SNIPRES!" and then they proceed to go into a lengthy discussion of why we aren't snipers.
Great, well then we must be infantry, right? Well we get the title Soldier don't we? That makes sense. Except I just read one post in which someone made the arguement that since we're soldiers with rifles we should be more rifleman-like. What does someone say? We aren't really using rifles and we aren't really riflemen. We should ignore the titles because they are meaningless.
Ok, well this is getting old. I'm glad everyone has such a great opinion of what we *aren't* so would someone kindly explain to me what they think we are? Other than some gimped ranged attacker?

We are the forgotten children of SWG. We are the babies thrown out with the bathwater. We are the null class, etc
