Damn Fish... if you were really playing nice and they got you, sounds like they have it out for you.




Along those lines, has anyone seen the www.freegenesis.com page yet? He's still putting it together so all the details are there, but basicly this guy, and he's really big on our server, got bumped for posting a link to a picture or something. Not just the forums, but the game from what I've seen.




"Jedi claims of being "broken" are like saying "But my TV isn't widescreen! It's broken! My TV can't show high-def pictures in 1080i, it can only do 720i! It's broken!" Meanwhile, crafters are saying "We'd really like to have a TV that's larger than 12" and gets more than 4 channels and doesn't constantly lose vertical control", and entertainers are saying "Can we get some color instead of this B&W piece of junk?" And smugglers? We're listening to radio programs of "The Shadow" and "The Abbot and Costello Comedy Hour" and hearing FDR's Fireside Chats. We don't even HAVE a damn TV, much less a broken one or a "broken" one by Jedi standards. I'd LOVE to be as "broken" as they are." - The Legendary Solo4114

I ama licenced priest, Veela. By church law you are able to share anything with me during confession, and I am bound by my church oath to never disclose the sins of my flock.


LOL, just kidding, but I MUST ADMIT, your post that you know good news brings a light of hope to me brighter than any dev post I have ever seen concerning smugglers!!!!

Honestly, I wonder why they bother to keep the forums up sometimes when the only important information that ever gets released always falls under the NDA? I understand the principle of the matter (covering their hienys) but lately if feels like EVERYTHING falls under that NDA unless it's being launched tomorrow. Hell, did we ever get an official answer on the spice nerf so many decades ago?

I don't mean to be negative Veela, so please don't misunderstand. I'm extremely greatful that you managed to find something out and that it appears to be positive for us. Thank you for all the work you put in to finding this information for us. It's just, before you posted I knew nothing. Now I know that there's something, but I have no idea what it is, and i'm not entirely certain which "waiting to hear" is more difficult at the moment. And at the moment, because of the NDA Wes's hands are tied from 2-way corespondence. He gets to tell them what we thing, and gets to hear a little of what they say, but can't let us know anything.

I swear though, if just one red name would come into this forum, and stay and chat with us for 20-30 minutes one day, everyone would be in a much better situation. We deserve that at least, after almost 2 years and untold delays. 20 minutes.

One quick question though: Is this 3-months good news, 6-months good news, or 12-months good news? I had to try

Curse the vile presence of NDA's. I'm glad this makes some of you folks happy. And I'm grateful to Veela for finding something out. But this doesn't do a thing for me. been told good news was on the horizon for who knows how long now, good news is always on the horizon. alas, the horizon never seems to get any closer.

These are some possible name changes the government has been mulling over: Halfghanistan, Pothole-istan, Jenniferanistan, @ssbackwardstan, Bye-bye-Talibanstan, @ss-Kicked-istan."

Of course I got where you were coming from buthow can a smart arse like me not comment on that one. It's like the time Ren told Stimpy not to touch thebig shinny button....I just can't help it.

Yea, I agree Yimaz. Part of what I wrote was to harness the sheer imaginative explosion that sentece would take, then apply that imagination to fixing smuggler, or pushing for people to express that want.


About fridges, at the moment, I have an eggplant that I forgot about months ago in my fridge.... that is one HUGE pile of sludge!!!!!

Honestly, at this point in the crossroads of Smuggler, I don't know how much I have left to give. This announcement makes me angry, sad, and hurt. More than anything I feel like the little kid that knew the stove was hot but played with fire anyway.


Yes, we're not fiscally weighted enough to swing a revamp our way, but what about all the blood, sweat, and tears we've put into this profession? Some of us have stuck out living a broken existence for almost 2 years, just because we love an impossible dream.


I'm going to try to get to the bottom of this, mark my words. If anything, this community needs to be formally apologized to. I'm sick of LucasArts thinking of every way to make a quick buck (Jedi, Ep. III) instead of actually reading what the playerbase wants. Well, I'm tired of being stepped on. I fully intend to swing my weight around now. I will be using the power of the press as much as humanly possible.


I also spoke to Joras last night, and I'm going to be making a few phone calls today. I want some answers, and I want some NOW.

Damn, She /tipHat us!


If you have no fight left in you, then remember this! IF YOU GIVE UP NOW ALL THE FIGHTING YOU'VE DONE HAS BEEN FOR NOTHING!


:-) See you next week!






Fixed that for ya, before you get a taste of why Ternque thinks she has balls!

Ladies and gentlemen, this is it. This is the moment each of you decides what to do about your profession. Veela has decided to fight. Support her if you can.
As for yourself, here are your choices:

(A)You can complain in the forums. You can post a response to this and other messages saying that it has already been tried. True. It's failed in the past because it wasn't coordinated enough. All efforts toward a Smuggler Revamp up to this point were a "good thing".

(B)You follow her lead. You call, email, whatever, whomever you need to contact. You stand in Coronet and /yell for your Smuggler Revamp. You fight in any legal way that you can.

Our motto must now become "E pluribus unum" (Out of Many, One). All Smugglers must act together in one concerted effort unlike all previous efforts. This must be done, and done now. We will continue in this pattern of neglect as long as we allow it to continue.

I'm choosing to fight alongside Veela. I'm going to do whatever I can to get SOE's attention, followed immediately by their love. Our suffering is real. Our place in line is at the head. We will get the Revamp. We will be told when (in terms of MM:YY) to expect the Smuggler Revamp. Simply that. Make your choice.
Thank you for reading this.

That's a great post Kerg...the only problem is that Veela actually has clout. She's an editor for a gaming magazine, and has contacts "in da biz" and a vehicle through which to vent which is public. Mightier then the pen I can wield.


That won't stop me from trying in what little ways I can, but the reason so many of us feel comfortable throwing our wieght behind Veela (besides how much we all love and appreciate her) is because she has good resources to make an impact if she's motivated enough.


Rock on Veela!


Viva La Revamp!!
