Thread: Quote from Gaitan that spoke to me.
Don't you have to ask yourself WHO the spice-pusher really is here?
Yes, I've been 'hooked' for over two years...really three or more if you include following the game before beta.
And yes, I'll give up a lot that I worked hard for.
And yes, there will be people I won't see any longer.
But then I won't be paying the pusher any longer. This monkey, at least, will be off my back.
It's a hard tradeoff but if I don't do it now I'll have to submit to reading the same smuggler content posts on this forum and listening to the same deafening silence from SOE indefinitely.
No, if I actually BELIEVED in SOE I'd stick it out. But they simply have no redeeming qualities. They get a vote of complete no-confidence from me.
If you really want to go though you can always give your account to one of your trusted guildmates to keep things going.

I'm confliced. I need another Dancer hug... ladies?
Or heck, I'll be more direct - Veela - get over here!
I think that's it for me. I'll be making my final decision tonight. At the very least - I'm definately protesting in-game on my Smuggler toons and I may carry on the Armorsmith business (as its growing like crazy), but I'm so upset that its all one big kick in the pants. Damn you SOE. You damn dirty apes...Except you Ganyemed (if I spelled that right), you kinda creep me out sometimes... Vin Diesel... geez!
haha /Diesel shot FTW!
yeah i may just hit the cancel button tonight as well.
i've only been able to log on once since i moved to queens anyway. my girl takes too much of my time haha. i need to convert her to a gamer. (after she gets her own computer though)
I'm VERY subtly working on the same thing myself. It's my opinion that everyone needs some kind of escape, especially high-stress people (which she happens to be
And what better escape than an MMO
Might I suggest sleeping on it before making rash decisions. I only suggest that since emotions are running so high in here today.

Hey man. I've always appreciated your hurmor and opinions, so I'd like to say thanks for the advice, but it was a farily simple decision.
nearly left a few times (part due to smuggler issues, part due to tc related issues and those people i have fun with scattering everywhere)... i've stopped automatic re-billing twice as a "well i'll make a decision when my month expires" kind of thing... and each time i've gone ahead and paid up again
the one thing that I have seen in the last 6 - 9 months is that I have no confidence that anything is coming down the line, and with the CU my biggest complaint is that too many of the avenues that once were there that could be developed into something good were basically cut off leaving, well, many fewer areas for refinement. Just seems less and less to obsess about in game - to chase after or make a long term goal (profession changes, weapon/armor caps, loot changes, etc)... and certainly less and less around here on the boards to dream about.
so I know my time is limited... no revamp or some other great change that I'm paying until it happens then making the call but I'm still here playing and having fun, until I'm not.
To those quitting - this week or next or the next - good luck to you, have fun in what you do next, and thanks for the memories... I totally understand where your at.
Keep on Smugglin'
