Guam,


That is the same basic response we have gotten from time to time for the past 20 months.


I fail again to see how that response NOW is somehow encouraging when it has proved itself a worthless response for 20 months.


Again, please show me how circumstances have changed such that this response is encouraging when it is no different than anything we've ever gotten.


I maintain that our 'revamp' is dependent ONLY on what Sony can profit in the way of retained or new subscriptions. As long as there is ANYTHING more profitable to do then we will be left with that very answer you got in your PM.





My only point is that TH personally took the time to send me a PM, when he could have easilylet things alone...especially since he had already posted his response to theforum. I know it isn't much, but ifhe truly wanted to just brush us aside why would he botherwasting timesending me (a faceless nobody in the SWG crowd)a PM trying to smooth the waters a bit? He already said his poece in the forums.


While I COMPLETELY understand the history ofthe Smuggler profession, I have a hard time believing that the Devs get together every week and go out of their way to find ways of screwing the Smugglers. It appears that we continue to be low on their priority list, but after all theaccusations and angeragainst SOEin the past I really don't think TH would waste time trying to give ANY glimmer of hope and risk being called out again. Can you blame him? And yet he still felt that the issue was important enough to warrant a PM in addition to his public forum posting. That is all I am trying to say.


In the meantime, I will keep pushing for a Revamp in my own ways. My way is to stay positive. You may have your own way, and I respect that. But please, do not try to "prove" to me that my staying positive is wrong, or overwhelm me with reasons to be negative. I had read through the Smugglers history even before I decided to go Smuggler. I know there are issues, and I know what has been said, tried, and done. I know that communication has been terrible, that statements & promises went unfullfilled, and that this has been going on for slightly longer than I have been in-game (not in-Forum) myself. In spite of all this, I am STILL choosing to remain positive.Trying to convince me that I shouldn't be positive is a waste of your time...and won't contribute to our common goal one bit.

its TH job to keep people playing the game and if a simple PM to one person saves 5 people then he will do what he has to.

VC, you know that I have nothing personal against you (I really don't even know you ), so please don't take this personally but I don't think your extremely negative outlook has helped at all either. In fact, you allowed your negative feelings to overwhelm your better judgement (regarding what is appropriate to post) resulting in you getting banned for a week.


The way I see it, we can waste our energy bickering amongst each other over this, or we can focus our combined energies on our common goal. I believe we have a far better chance of getting something if we focus on the goal....regardless of our individual differences of opinion.


I reiterate:

Look, there was no reason to expect ANY other response from TH other than, "we're working on the CURB, we'll tell ya about that when we get there." Getting real information was not the point. The point was to bring it back up again is all.

Probably what happened to GreenMarine. walked in front of the idea board.


i know we're all annoyed at the empty response, but let's not be rude. we've got a great thing going with all the support. let's not get everyone pissed at us by getting all bitchy in the thread.

I have to say that the last time I felt being positive about everything was the way to go was about-


*looks at watch*


about a year ago.


So I can agree with VC on some level. We DO need to find another way to approach this. I don't know how drastic that has to be though...


and Yim- You f'n make me laugh, boyo. I might have to make a char on Eclipse.
