How would you like it if every slack-jawed yokel thought he was your profession just because of a dumb name for some NPC's. We work hard to be smugglers. We work hard to feel like smugglers even though we don't smuggle. And many of the smugglers here on the forum bleed sweat and cry for this profession. So pardon us if we're a little touchy on the subject. Your comment about us being assinine about this is neither constructive nor appropriate. If I've misunderstood your comment my full apologies.

Could it be that "someone" is bitter about the status of their own gameplay and "someone" has come into the smuggler forums to take out "someones" frustrations with how boring and over the game they are. Sorry it requires no skill. But direct your irritation where it belongs...not to us please. Thank you.

Actually in beta one of the devs, forget which, very clearly said that members of the Smuggler's Alliance where NOT smugglers and would be given no smuggling to do. He clearly stated that the Smuggler's Alliance used player pilots only to run 'errands'.

yes "errands". And I "modify" weapons, and "delegate" faction, and sell "spice"
Fact of the matter is, I have never done a mission as a smuggler, where someone has referred to me as a Smuggler. there aren't any. And yet, you can run "errands" and be called a Smuggler by a host of npcs, you can join the Smuggler's Alliance, but you don't have to be a smuggler. you just have to forgo full scale pvp.
Oh and in the first beta, in fact, while the game was being conceived and coded, they said a lot of things about a lot of things, and well, look those up and see how the game compares...
