I have this little voice in me whispering: "They already made the announcement."




We couldn't play SWG without Tiggs. Now we can =)

I'd like to suggest that the smuggler community as a whole take a deep breath, maybe take a walk, or even consider increasing their dosage for a week or so until things calm down.

I thought we had gotten past the screaming last weekend.

it is driving me crazy also, well, not completely crazy but i would like to know. I am not expecting anything earth shattering but a little something would be cool.

We've done this every single time we've been given the shaft. We scream for a week or so, then the Devs hint at something coming in the future, and we go about business as usual. We wait, nothing happens. This repeated behavior let's the Devs know exactly how to handle our community and though it may work for them, it doesn't seem to work for us.

Now, I have nothing against any other profession in this game, and am happy to see when something is added for someone else, but look at the perks Rangers just got (Yay!) and look at what we've got, despite our outcries...

I hate to agree DRWolfe but I have to admit the devs have found a way to 'handle' us.


When the 'soon' ploy doesn't work they toss us a Frog Bowl or Non-funtional Gaming Table and most of us swoon and cuddle their new treasure for a few months.


They've gotten by for nearly two years this way so it must be working fairly well.




Smuggler, Smuggler, Smuggler Pie, Two years of "Soon"(TM), a harsh bunch of lies.
Ask me a riddle and I reply: "Smuggler, Smuggler, Smuggler Pie"

Smuggler, Smuggler, Smuggler Pie, Dancers can't smuggle and neither can I.
Ask me a riddle and I reply: "Smuggler, Smuggler, Smuggler Pie."

Smuggler, Smuggler, Smuggler Pie, Why are there Jedi, I don't know why.
Ask me a riddle and I reply: "Smuggler, Smuggler, Smuggler Pie."

LOL... who swooned?


If I remember correctly, the best reaction they got was us questioning whether or not they were really serious.




"Jedi claims of being "broken" are like saying "But my TV isn't widescreen! It's broken! My TV can't show high-def pictures in 1080i, it can only do 720i! It's broken!" Meanwhile, crafters are saying "We'd really like to have a TV that's larger than 12" and gets more than 4 channels and doesn't constantly lose vertical control", and entertainers are saying "Can we get some color instead of this B&W piece of junk?" And smugglers? We're listening to radio programs of "The Shadow" and "The Abbot and Costello Comedy Hour" and hearing FDR's Fireside Chats. We don't even HAVE a damn TV, much less a broken one or a "broken" one by Jedi standards. I'd LOVE to be as "broken" as they are." - The Legendary Solo4114

The announcement is, "Imperial troopers crack down on smugglers! All smugglers will have the skill points they put into it back to distribute freely, as the Empire wiped out every single smuggler in the galaxy."

This seems to be the most plausable suggestion for what's coming than anything else so far.


We're gonna wake up one morning, log in, go to join the smuggler forum and find it....missing.


We'll then log into the game, and discover that we have skill points back, have holes in our toolbars, and items in inventory we no longer can use. There will be items we can no longer make.


Spooky, isn't it?

Hey, guys, thiswouldn't necessarily be a bad thing. After all, we'd still be as close to being gunrunners and traffikers as we are now, *and* we'd have more skill points. You can't look at the removal of the Smuggler profession as a nerf, as such. it's more like re-evaluation of the skill point distribution and skillset nomenclature
