Make links of all the ideas we made and put them in one thread and they can go read EVERYTHING. Then they can come back to us and tell us what they propse using the ideas we gave them and we can give them the thumbs up or down.

I think we should be hired by SOE considering how we went about submitting, resubmitting, resubmitting again....

Anyone feeling like watching "Office Space"?

True. Don't let'em stall, Caylin, give them mine ASAP. Tell them that's the best we can do, so let's continue with the discussion. I doubt it'll work but it'll force their hand (or they'll just ignore us).

I disagree. Don't send them anything. It's not like they're going to do anything with it, or tell us what's going on. Just ignore the request and keep pestering them for THEIR vision.

Seriously Caylin, take a break.

Deadlines aren't supposed to be met in the game industry anyhow (what was that? Half Life 2 was supposed to come out last october? Then April? Then.....).

They have paid proffessionals to come up with this stuff, and frankly, if it's only their art department that they're strapped for, **edit** are the designers doing? They've had a year live to get used to the editing/scripting tools. Yeah, they might be a little burnt out, but all they have to do is look at these forums, come up with a general consensus, and submit somthing to US for us to look over and improve. I mean jhc, Caylin's already proved he can do that by himself. If one designer could take a single day to look over ANY of the docs formed here, they'd have a fully designed revamp just waiting for code/scripting.

/endrant

So here's my suggestion, as I see will be most effective. For the documentthey're requesting.

Forthe smugglerrevamp we would like:

ONE designer be assigned for ONE day to the Smuggler forums.

During said day, saidONE designer will read the plentiful threads that are clearly labeled by the Smuggler Proffession Corresponedant. After which said ONE designer will come up with a brief document (1-2 pages) and post it on the Smuggler forum board, titled DEVS SUGGESTED SMUGGLERREVAMP...in red.

The smuggler community will then read and revise the document and edit it in ways that we feel fit. After which the Smuggler Proffession Correspondant will submit the revised revamp.

Respectfully, after said document is submitted, we expect it to go as straight as possible toSWG game programmers, where it will be ready to be put into code and into the game.

At which point the ball's in their court. It's obvious the smuggler community is pissed, and I wouldn't be surprised to see even more people quitting than already are. I'm alright with us being delayed till after jtls (which was supposed to come out in June/July, right?), but it's pissing me off that we don't know **edit** is happening in jtls that is pertinant to our revamp.

I'm pretty sure no smuggler who talks or even reads the forums is going to read this document. We are all extremely sick of vision documents as we have been writing, proposing, or conceptualizing these documents since well RELEASE...and if they want to get picky well then since they said we had a correspondent in september!!!

There is no way in "heck" i am going to give any ideas AGAIN and i don't think anyone should.

Caylin just set a macro to auto-email them the same document every 12 hours.

I realize all the professions are supposed to be sending something like this in, but in our case it is particularly absurd. Just point that out and tell them we want to see their vision first.

I've made a mention of just how many of these fricking things we have to do, I even got a hug from another correspondent. Lol.

I'll see what I can do with this, but it wont be tonight.

They don't pay me enough to do this.

How much time has been invested in all the previous profession documents? How much good has it done? It's like I said in the "Boycott" thread (and what many are also saying here), just don't do it.

"Hey they're pretty pissed off... better ask for another revamp doc!"

That's exactly it. The Devs went to the well too many times. I think this community is just tired of the lack of communication and misinformation.
