QFE


With new people coming in rarin' to go and full of ideas it's reeeeeeal easy for some of us (raising hand) to shoot down ideas as "Already been done" and "Talked about that last year" Actually, come to think of it it's really fun to beat down other people's ideas... er.. but um... but I digress.


While I can't think of any incidents in the recent memory (but then again - I'm whacked on Pixie most of the time anyway) I'll try to include clickys to past ideas when someone mentions "a new idea"


Thanks for the post Kav


Cheers
Dat

No, no the people who are out of line here get banished to the GCW forums where they are slowly digested for 1000yrs.

Loads of great ideas have graced this forum, many are linked up there in the "Important Links" sticky.


bout 1-2 pages downare the "Vision docs"and frankly all the other docs in that page merit reading. Allot I know but you will begin to see the scope of our previous constructive building that now lays in disrepair.


SOE has asked us for the input then come back after 6 months of great building and had the gall to say, "So what did you want again?"


If nothing else read the history bits, you'll understand.


As for visions, well my fav is in my sig personally I like the guy that wrote it








Once again, Kav sums up the spirit of our intention in one simple and eloquant post. This is exactly the way a lot of do (or should) feel about this issue.


Keep in mind that a lot of the Vision docs are compilations of several ideas that were at one time scattered about in individual threads. We have put together profession docs 3 times (officially) I believe, and the last 2 times we had teams ( I was on the second one) working on getting all the credible ideas together and put them under 1 umbrella.


If you see something you like in one of those docs, there should be stickies to the thread it was discussed in kicking around there somewhere. If not, then a simple search should yield the results you are looking for. If that all fails, ask; mention that you saw it in the docs couldn't find the info, and wanted to discuss it further or get clarification. I'll speak for myself by saying that I'll try and help you out as best I can.


Keep the passion alive!

Well as you guessed I'm new to this Smuggling lark, I re-speced (forgive the last word) from bounty hunter as I didn't care much for hunting jedi and the Smuggler template suited my survive at all costs play style, (I've cloned3 timesthis year) (I don't PVP much)


I was thinking you guys pray for a Smuggler Overhaul everyday and I thought maybe we should keep the great ideas on the boards at all times in one form or another as I'd hate to see The Smuggler Revamp (with lots of nice graphics on the launchpad)Stuck to a Friday Feature with a few stats altered here and there and thats your lot for another 24months, so lets hear all the great ideas you guys have come up with in the past, and I know most have probably been passed on already but I'd like to see what your guys vision for the fair but fun Smuggler Profession are........


infrequent pie comments will be tolorated ;-)



RPG, means ROLE-PLAY. If you want to just kick ass play UT2004, if you want to race, play NFSunderground2, if you want to run around doing what you want to anyone play GTA Vice City, if you want to moan. Go somewhere else.

Our vision? Read the stickies... go back a few pages and read other posts in the forum.


No offense, but we've been posting ideas for two years now waiting for our revamp... there is nothing new to post. It's all been said. It's all been discussed, argued, and debated. Just keep reading and you'll find some great stuff written by great people, many of whom have given up and gone.

Ohhh! Your one of those respecers eh? Well there is only one thing left for us to do to you now... and that is to ask what kind of pie would you like with your beer?


I would have to say that the great ideas are still in front, they are just over in the In Concept forum. Unless you count the jedi who run in here saying "You know you guys should ask for LD to be revamped". Plus the way I see a Smuggler is they are, easy going, free spirits who will party in the face of danger/revamp/overhaul. Butonce it's time to be serious we will stop the party and get to butt kicking.


Thats just my two credits and your milage may vary

Ohhh....youcame from the Bounty Hunter forums well that explains it. (jk)


On a serious note, we have been at this for 2yrs, trust me when I tell you when it was called for we were all over the revamp idea's and when they come up again (althought GM seems to have a good handle on what is going to happen with us) we will be all over it again.


Time young Smuggler, over time you will see why we are the best forum on the boards.

I'm going to mention pie in every thread you start from now on, Guinness.


There are a lot of good ideas that have been floated already, like people have said. More than most things, we want to have real smuggling missions with real underworld-ee consequences and rewards. For example, when I started out with JtL, I was stuck for a while because I absolutely didn't want to run missions for Lady Valarian, because I was affiliated with Jabba. But... of course, that didn't matter because there really isn't any crime lord versus crime lord wars going on.


I'm looking forward to the slicing 'revamp' that Veela has promised us.


/avoid veela's wrath


And yeah, if you haven't checked them out yet, check out the two smuggler threads in the 'In Concept' section of the main boards. Apparently slicing's going to be at least a little different than that and it's the first one coming. The smuggling missions are coming after that, in theory.
