we were focused... we want beer and pie? At least we focused on something so pure and yummy. What is on topic for a smuggler anyway?
We dont smuggle, we dont slice as much, and our combat effectiveness is slowly being eroded back to square one. We make our own content to get by and it just happens to drift onto the forums.
I grant that - I did say some leeway is necessary (meaning that things shouldn't be taken too literally) -but still, some completely OTthings like "official city of the smuggler forums" doesn't hold water here, imo. That's what GAT is for. Not that I'm againstsmuggler comraderieor anything, just would like to see more smuggler specific stuff (ie newbies getting help, etc) that gets kinda lost when the community gets "tight."
I know, I'm boring...

Actually Spinning, HOW can we focus on them when the devs obviously WON'T?

Devs, give us something to discuss.... I dunno, maybe let us actually Smuggle for the first time in two years. Give us a complex system that's worth serious threads here in our beloved Smuggler forum.
Until you do, leave us alone to drown our sorrows in beer and pie.

To be completely honest, I think its been caused by something an idiot(character name of Gaakar, forum name of silentjunior) from my server, Lowca. You see, a few days ago, this genius decides he's going to "take over" the Lowca forum by spamming every single thread on the first page, then creating an entire new thread just to proclaim his victory. Of course he got banned, but its probably caused the recent crackdown. This guy is incredibly dense, you have to break everything down into the simplest, most bare bits to explain anything to him, and has what I call "Shiney Oject Syndrome", as soon as he sees a shiney object, he retreats into his own little world and it takes a figurative slap in the face to bring him out of this daze.
Here's an example, we used to be in the same guild, and while I was showing the LongShot off to guild members, he decides to hop in a turret and start shooting friendlies because the buzzer was his shiney object, but just annoying to everyone else on board. I told him to stop in spatial chat, in group chat, in numerous tells, I finally had to cuss him out and threaten to kick him off the ship in guild chat just to get him to stop.
What's worse, is that he's a Jedi(another shiney object), so I'd like it very much if anyone on Lowca would take the time to incapacitate/kill/grab his mission as much as possible. Then he might learn.

That makes me laugh and cry and chuckle and fume all at the same time, Nic... I"m quite confused now.
