Please Give your opinions and insight in the matter.

Well we need to stop forum fighting with the pistoleers and get this situation resolved. We don't have the numbers that we used to have.(I am guiltly of flaming also) But since the dabblers are getting them a bad name, we have the same situation with the BH's and Eye Shot. We really need to put our flames aside and work together.
Both pure classes need help, at master we might not need it. I don't know since I am not one. But the nerf herders are starting to swarm on us both.
WOW should of posted this here, It under strive for balance also.

Let me explain the problem with the profession and the community.
We don't know exactly what thisprofession is supposed to be. Currently we are defined as big M-60 carrin Mo-Fo Bad Azzez taking out groups of people at Master. Well if were that,WTH is the role of carbineers? Are not carbineers supposed to be AOE gods too? And if so, what is the diffrence between them and us?
This ain't our fault, even in the manuel the Elite professions aint defined. I believe there are two communities in Rifleman but are only seperated because we don't know what the purpose of our profession really is as it relates to pistoleer and carbineer. Some of us see that sniper crap taking up half our tree and say "Well carbineers got to be AOE suppression, so we gotta be snipers." Others, more experienced rifleman see us as "Well we got all these AOE's and their our strengths, we are the big badd azzed M-60 slaughterers."
So our community don't know wich way to go, so obviously we are going to differ on what penelties should be kept and what should be removed.
So the major question we have to ask ourselves is "How should we and how do we relate to the other combat professions?" Then once we all agree on this we can start asking "How do we fix our profession?"

Sorry for double post
Raloon you bit off a little too much posting to the discussion board. You might want to post to each professional board the post "What is the role of your profession?" You don't need other input from them than that, they go off on tangents that define classes they know little to nothing about on the main discussion board.
