The whole thing is VERY strage. I absolutely cannot imagine a reason for the total lack of regard for the Smuggler profession in the game and the Smuggler community in general. Large and small changes for a number of professions abound (Jedi, Bounty Hunters, Doctors, etc.) but not a single thing for this profession. Not even something as simple as adding text in a skill box. It is beyond my understanding, why this apathy towards this profession. Someone explain this to me.
This is the very thing that has me so disheartend. They really dont care about Smugger and I dont get it. No mention of smuggler in any of the last few interviews andempty promises time and time and time again. We were told they have no time for anything profession related changes yet most (not all) professions leap froged us every time over the last year and now Doc gets CM def. Why, so they can charge 20k for buffs? The only info we get is wait for the re-vamp which we have no date for. Then i see patch after patch after patch for every other profession. It really makes me feel like they see us as either a pain in the ass or so unimportant that we dont need any attention. Why are we paying $14 a month to live the saga of a smuggler in name only.

some simple things i would like to see for smugglers that may have been posted here :
-Beeing able to smuggle people from planet to planet without waiting for a shuttle or spacecraft (kinda like the EQ druid)...
-Beeing able to choose what we want to slice
-Poison buff as a Spice that last for about 10 min and have a downer, i don't care...
-Removal of the unarmed skills needed to be a smuggler (there's no use to if if you don't want to become TK)... Seems to be a quick fix, they did it for BH
I think these would be fairly easy thing to implements....
Dwiggz not to take away from your ideas but we have been talking about this stuff for over a year now. Its so beyond what we want to see the profession grow into now. The community as a wholehas given the Dev'sidea's similar to yours,as well as a ton of other ideas on more then one occasion. Green Marine has stopped in here wet out appetite then disapeared. The "idea horse" has been beaten not only to death but into glue. Most idea's are easy to add but for some reason even before the JTL schedule changes we were passed over.
I curious as to any insight Caylin can add, Im sure he can see how down the community is.

Yeah, maybe he can relate to the Devs that the Smuggler community has gone from irritation, to anger, and has now hit rock-bottom depression due to the utter lack of attention or even acknowledgement that we exist like every other profession in the game.

Is anyone talking to you? I remeber we had 2 new spices comming and Green Marine stopping on from time to time, now nothing (I know, no suprise).I see doctors getting profession enhancements and we cant even get text fixs. We all know our re-vamp is on the shelf, we all know the dev's are working hard on JTL and over all game playbut come on. They can enhance a profession that makes millions apon millions in the sale of buff'syet a profession that even the Dev'sagreed needs love cant even get a bone tossed to them. Its just weird and I really dont get it. Again this is not about the re-vamp it's about the team at SOE showing a complete lack of concern for this profession since even before launch, I just dont understand and its very, verydishearting.

This fact has me convinced that the smuggler as we know it is going away....

Refusing to make even a simple changes like even adding aminor text revision indicates to me that the Devs do not want to make a change or update that they will just have to remove later....
Would you wax the car that you plan to send to the junkyard?
