ok ok...i get it - any race or gender or political persuasion can all be ANY class...hey! cool, right?


WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

why am i gettin' "searched" by IMP soldiers?...i'd think it's 'cause i'm a Reb Rodian wielding sliced weaps...[i remember back when an armor slice was cool.../cry.../weep.../gnash-teeth]


whatever...if the Empire is against slicing, then why in the name of all that doesn't suck is there ever such a tihing as an Imperial Smuggler? It's the idiocy rubbed in my face that really tears me up. Why can't there be FACTION SPECIFIC classes??????? Again, an Imperial Smuggler?...especially in 'troopa garb??!!??!?!?!? Gimme a friggin' break!!


Smug should be Reb/Neut only...IMPs could have their own classes too: Taxman, Public-Accountant, Vader-Bootlicker...all the buttkissin' things


might make more sense

It wouldn't be "Fair" not that its not unfair already. We don't get cool AT-ST's or anything (my poor rebel commando's hate them). We don't get to be a part of the system...but what we do get...We get to stick it to the man, and get rocked in theed! I think we should get a big stick at least, so we can knock over those AT-ST's without getting three hit. wouldn't that be funny? A big stick? 100m long!

I m smuggler rebelmyself, but hey, I know policemen who smokes weed, so why not an imp who slices weapons?

In my eyes a player ist Smuggler FIRST, and SECOND reb or imp. We smuggler try to get as much as we can out of all we can get our hands on and if ya want to be imp, sure, do it, but it won t keep a real smuggler from doing smuggler thingys.

these guys are not imperial smugglers, these guys are smugglers, who are also, in a way, imperials.

I am an Imperial Smuggler ... two fuels for thought.


1) smugglers dont have to smuggle for the empire.. maybe it is an under the table inside job... keep your enemys closer kinda thing


2) it is like goverments ban automatic weapons but use them thierselves. they cant ban all guns so they just ban the most threatning.. sliced ones.. but they can use them cause it is for the "Greater Good".


Ok i get it if it is a "they get all the cool stuff and we get nothing kinda deal." well yes we are the bad guys of course we get all the cool stuff, and what fun would being a rebel be if you didnt have to hide, and what fun would an imp be if you did?.


ok agree, disagree, discuse im just stateing my veiws on how I see it may they be right or wrong.

Ok Imperial smuggler can happen it's called greed, the empire does not pay the bills. They could useimperial ships to smuggle goods avoid imperial blockade, Gets codes to pass blockade. The befit to the empire, as for AT-ST the are a joke I never use it I use to now it's nerf to hell, wish dev's just gave rebs vechical type tooper so we both go to battle with them and watch the choas. Now looking backthey can remove them, andthey add nothing because weak and do nothing but look kind of cool.

Personally, I think that they need to do faction-exclusive professions. But I think they'd have to introduce Neutral factions before that... like the Hutt faction that's been tossed around since beta.


Smugglers and BH's should be neutral, and Jedi should not be allowed to be Imp. The resoning for the Jedi is obvious. Both the Alliance and the Empire view smuggling as illegal,not to mentionspice.

I run spice and guns and I am imperial. My backstory is that I ran for all parties, until I got caught by an Imperial command ship, and was made an offer I cannot refuse...

I have a few reason.


1. Its easier to smuggle when you are apart of the system that you're trying to by pass (for a real world example, many arms dealer buy US military equipment from smugglers who are actually US military personnel)


2. As one put it, keep your enemies closer, which relates to number 1.


3. Fits my character and his back ground.


4. Because I want to.


In the end, its a game, deal with it.

/scoffs "Rebel Scum"

the "bah!" was to Ihovo...i hear ya Tybolt


but, to be an insane geek - if an "imperial" were working for themselves then that would have to be defined inna "class-structure" in game...it's alot simpler in literature


getting an imperial rank in game means killing rebs or buying "FP" that came from killing rebs...it amounts to the same karmaically -thus, if the IMPs are onna crack-down towards Smug's and the deads that they do....would it not make sense that a toon w/ + IMP faction [meaning signed on IMP] would be unable to a smuggler? the sell-out thing w/ smugglers is one thing, but seeing a toon w/ "Master Smuggler" above "it's" head in full troopa armor is kinda silly, ain't it?


[yes, i hear the argument forthcoming of Han & Luke in troopa' armor which i think adds to my argument...THAT'S exactly what the "sellout" smuggler thing should be...not being a rebel-slaying-imperial-smuggler - very different things]

Oh on a side note.... I never have master smuggler over my head.. I have 2nd lu.. shock trooper turned on at all times


I used to leave it all blank for anon reasons, but they shafted me cause now you got CL 80 so bold that only a moron couldnt tell, that you are more then nothing.... i realy wish they would change this.. I also tried to avoid badges for the same reason, even though you couldnt avoid the has mastered stuff badges not to mentian the search feture that allows you to surch for any class. Anyway now i display all kinds of stuff.. but i myself can live with that cause I have names turned off unless i target them.
