The individual I blasted had a lot of nerve condescending to me and then pretending that he was so important that the Devs would reply to his bump. Sorry, but if they cared, we wouldn't have the problem to begin with... and every hour that this thread stays near the top without any official acknowledgment of the real concerns just goes to prove that.

Except for one fatal flaw, and that is since you felt it necessary to continue the flamefest, you gaurantee that there will be no dev response to this thread. So a lack of dev response here only proves that they stay out of flamefests, not that they don't care.


I'm not dissagreeing with anything you have said, nor your right to defend yourself; just pointing that out to you. Otherwise, there are some valid points brought up.

Um... except for the fact that they stay out of threads that AREN'T flamefests, too... or haven't you noticed?


That's EXACTLY the point I'm trying to make - so don't pretend for a moment that it's MY fault that no one has responded. What's your excuse for before that? Or for all the other perfectly civil and constructive threads that they ignore?


You just don't get it - they don't CARE what we think or say. They don't even care if we QUIT.

I love the Tiggs quote above!



Paraphrase: "We aren't adding new content right now b/c we think that we should fix the bugs that are currently in system"



So, these last few publishes have been "bug fixes"? Of course, they haven't added new content. My bad, I just can't see through these tears of laughter.







No no.. you miss understood.. the NEXT few publishes will be bug fixes.. coz the coming features are from a different dev team.. thats what she said lol

I agree. The idea to have slicing components as loot was a completely stupid idea. I prefered to be able to craft my parts, that way I always had them on hand and could slice whenever I wanted. Not to mention I didn't have to count on some "uber slicing item" to give my weapon a decent slice, it all depended on my skill, which is how it should be.
The Devs are always screwing up this profession. They say they'll fix it or add content, and all they do is furthur break it and laugh. It's so damn insulting, and worst of all is that the Devs are totally oblivious to it.

TashunkaSapa, look down.....that's called a Soap Box....now get off of it. Thank you.


You are preaching to the choir man, meaning, by continueing you are only making points that nearly every single contirbuter to this profession forum is acutely aware. You speak of being patronizing, well you just were, then you speak of others being hypocritical....buuuut you just were.


This doesn't need to continue,you can just drop it now. You've said your piece, others have as well. I accept your opinion and appreciate your input. As much as it seems imflammatory, we do need the sort of posts you made in order to keep them on thier toes. Besides with SpinnningCloud gone, it's needed even more.

If they haven't responded yet, they aren't going to. Sorry to burst your bubble, but I think you know this.


Others would call someone who bumps threads in such a fashion an "attention wh0re", I think that's perhaps a little harsh.

On second thought that would make too much sense, sorta like making a Smuggler profession that could smuggle.

I don't see much difference between this and loots like Krayt tissue... except that we don't need to install the loot when the item is crafted.


Please understand that we are enhancing an existing item. It is not a necessary thing, it just makes the weapon or armor better - much as loot items can do during the crafting process.
