They apparently don't have enough respect for us to respond. Why not just post the same post (that first one) over and over a few more times?

Because that's spamming...


And spamming is against forum policies...thus a bannable offence.


And I don't think fish is looking to get banned...yet...

Well.....I have been banned once for flaming perhaps I should add spamming to my CV as it were. Nah,spamming it would diminish the message of the post. Right now I think it makes an excellent point. However, were I (or anyone for that matter), spwm the message it would be taken much less seriously.

I'm not a Smuggler, but I feel your pain on a different level. There is ample proof here that a promise has been made to improve your field and proof that they are trying to goback on their word. As a player of SWG, why should I continue my account? If this interview is true, the devs obviously have no integrity and isn't that one of the principles of this game? Something else that I've been pondering is whyrevamping theSmuggler profession has become such an issue. It almost seems like it's pride stopping the developement.

Misleading the community is a common tactic for the Management team, check the Ranger forum for changes that were never put in and nerfing some that were. First they tell TH one thing, then go and say and do something else entirely. The reason they have TH is to have deniability. Remember the all of the POSTs are from TH, none are from Hayden. Therefore, he has an excuse to say that nothing wasplaned, since none of the posts are from him.


I think in order to have some insurance from SOE that the revamp will take place, someone other than TH will need to step up. Being in management now TH does have a greater say, but he is ONLY one person. We have seen the results when the community bans together and asks why. Otherwise, do you think Hayden would have even given an interview on the Comabat Revamp?

Um...if you look at our history, so far we've got posts from Holocron, Q3PO, JustG, and TH...all saying the same thing..."Smugglers need love and are getting it soon."...only to be followed MUCH later by another post saying, "oops...we forgot about this other very important thing, so Smugglers have to wait." We were on schedule before Chefs, IDs, Combat, and pretty much everything else...and we were definitely on schedule before Jedi even EXISTED in the game. We just get pushed and pushed and pushed. Well...they've managed to push this Smuggler right out of the game...


Honestly people...we don't make this stuff up...we just take the posts the devs give us at face value...

oops...forgot to mention...there's a post in there from Blair too...


So...that's 5 different devs...

(I'm not counting GreenMarine, simply because he has at least made an effort to follow through on what he says, and he gets his marching orders from some of the other guys I already listed.)

Ack,


I too read the Hadan Blackman interview and thought it was a little worrying. Why the devs dont just come clean with us I dont know, they may be under-manned and under-resourced, but we are still paying customers after all.


I feel that all attention is obviously on JTL because Sony and or Lucas appears to be run by accountants,theyfeel the ludicrous poor quality of the current game code, fixes and patches (that appear to me to not even being tested properly at development time) doesn't really matter, that we the customer will just "live with it".


I must say that "hanging their hat" on JTL could be a grave mistake, people are going to be *even* more cynical and critical of this game extension now. It is blindingly obviouse that people are loosing faith rapidly, and I think Green Marine/TH suddenly doing a dissapearing act doesnt really makesmugglers feel veryimportant


I really hope someone appears soon to smooth things over, cause I am staring at my three accounts every day and having to make up reasons to stick around. I have seen lots of players disappear over the last few weeks am sorry to say, some of them good friends.


Come on Sony/Lucas show us you care a little at least...
