Okay, I'm gonna try that again from the top. I was pissed. I'm still pissed. I'll try not to rant, but that'll be hard because I haven't had a cigarette all day.


Show me where I said anyone needed to change their pricing scheme?


Show me where I said he needed to CHANGE how he played?


Show me where I said that we need to fix pricing?


You can't. Because that ISN'T what I was saying. Because I'd never say that. Because I've ALWAYS advocated, play how you want and I'll do the same. I've always advocated, charge whatyou want and I'll do the same. That doesn't mean I have to like you for it, or like your methods. But we've established that. But what pissed me off was anyone saying that I said ANY of those things. Because I didn't, I wouldn't and I've been posting here long enough where people oughta know better.


Now, again, that doesn't mean I'm not allowed to go, "I believe x system is bad." "I believe y system is preferable." I can do that. I'm allowed. It's a smuggler issue. This is the smuggler forum. And that's what my first post was about until I lost my temper.


(and incidentally, the charge by percent doesn't reinforce "bad slices," it simply charges what the customer recieved, because while 11% effectiveness is an improvement it's not as good as slice as 35% effectiveness and there's just no denying that).


So, I'm sorry I lost my temper. But I haven't said ANY of the stuff ANY of you have said I did. None of it.

"When Sony and Lucas set out, we said, How can we do this and not make another EQ? We didn't want it to be all about Luke, or combat, or lock our players into a class. So we created a system that would allow players to switch professions during the game, and there would be a lot of gameplay around making that change. If you want to go from architect to scout we've created a system to make that happen."

I still don't understand why some smugglers give their services away for free...does any other profession do this? Have you ever seen a Weaponsmith walk up to a random guy in a Spaceport and say, "Bah - the acklay bone I looted for this power hammer wasn't too great - take this one for free." Why charge less for a permanent slice then what somebody can go buy a factory crate of temporary powerups for?




Wasnt exactly like that, but yeah... i have seen it happen lol.


But fear not! The spirit of your post got through
