i agree...we stayed postiive and kind and constructive for 2 years.



during that time the Jedi and Bounty Hunters have whined and complained and screamed.



they have gotten everything they have asked for at one time or another.



we have gotten zero. slicing doesn't count. combat revamp doesn't count. we can't smuggle, after 2 years of being "positive" we have nothing to show for it.







Just further proof that being nice gets you stepped on and abused to no end.

Oh, and you don't reflect well on yourself or the profession you are representing by calling people names, that is extremely childish. And it's extremely ironic that after doing so you'd accuse others of "not playing well with others". That is certainly the pot calling the kettle black.




Hardly. Are you suggesting that I should encourage people to malign their fellow players, or is it perhaps proper to shut them up before more harm is done?


I'll say it again: Only an IDIOT would blame Bounty Hunters for anything that's happened to the Smuggler profession. Was I calling anyone in particular names? Only if that's what they were doing. I hope you wouldn't think that blaming players for what the Devs do is anything less than idiotic, do you?


I get along fine with everyone except mewling Smugglers who won't be happy unless they drag everyone down with them.


Personally, I don't care what you think of me - but if you think that Smugglers throwing a temper tantrum will help them to get their long awaited revamp, I've got a few names for that, too. If I were a Dev, the last thing I'd want to do is waste my time on a profession whose most vocal members blame other professions for their every woe. If such people are a vocal minority, then it falls upon the majority to muzzle them before they make things worse for the rest of us. Seems that no one else is willing to do so.


If you have a problem with the development of the game, I suggest you take it up with the developers. Leave the other profs out of it, unless you're prepared to hear what they have to say.

I think some people are missing the point.


It doesn't matter if you're nice and constructive, or mean, nasty, and a general jerk to the Devs. They're going to work on whatever LucasArts tells them to (usually Jedi) no matter what your attitude is. That's just the way it works.


Anyone who thinks differently is just deluding themselves that they're more important in the scheme of things than they actually are.

This is the cold, hard truth people. Read this and let your minds awaken.


I must also say that Lucas Arts, a company that has never been involved in an MMO before, should have little power to micromanage SOE, who has been making balanced, fun games for quite some time now.


For some reason, Lucas Arts thinks they are god or something... welcome to the hell they've created.








Q to the F to the E.


The hard part is that we know that a lot of the REAL smugglers who left would come back with the smuggling changes we have been needing. All they need to do is care...and code.

For the same reason people pray...'cause you'd hate not to if there was actually someone listening.

The last thing we need is for them to try some b00lshet excuse like "we didn't know it was a concern because no one talked about it anymore".


Let's not give them any excuses to blow us off further.

Understood, but my question was directed at the poster I replied to, who seems to contradict his own stated viewpoint of "nobody cares what is said here" with a weekly/daily bump of stated thread.
