Which is exactly why you NickHeel should be the correspondent!
NickHeel! NickHeel! NickHeel!
C'mon...put your app in.
/Tarqlove!!!
hahahaha
Haha...I may be the best Smuggler on Tarq but I ain't the best in the game
/cockSmugglerMode off
Yeah, I'd probably send an application in but work, real life, college, and the fact that Fishbrains, Geevo, or JTGAlpha should be the new correspondant kind of negates that a little bit ![]()
Thanks for the support though ![]()
If the modified statement is true, then don't apply ... but if it is not true...Apply. Do not worry about who else is going to submit an application ... Let the Devs choose who they want. If they think you are the best, the community will support it. Including myself.

However, if you are really too busy, then I totally understand.

TAfirehawk summed it all up. If you did send in an app before the post please feel free to resend it so we can make sure it wasn't lost in the mix of the other correspondent apps.
Thanks
Thank you Tiggs. In addition to answering the question, you showed that you are paying attention to what is said. I look forward to getting to know you more as you spend more time with the community.
The silver lining to Caylin's resignation is we've got plenty of old-timey smugglers more than capable of filling the position (if not Caylin's rather large shoes). Really it should be the one decision about smugglers they can't possibly bone up.

I want someone who has been a long-standing member of the smuggler community.
Nothing against you gung-ho newer smugglers... We always need fresh energy and perspective.
Howver, I feel a past history of the smuggler profession is a MUST.
And NO, I am not applying. My wife would shoot me. Then she would shoot the computer.
Then she would cancel my account. Then she would add a powerup and shoot me again.
This made me balk last night. I had written up a rather long submission and then after skimming through the forums a few last times before clicking submit, I came face to face with a cold hard fact. I have only been a Master Smuggler for a few months. I was a Smuggler for a period last year during my tryouts of various professions, but I never went to Master and it was not for a long period.
To add to your note here, not only should the candidate be a longtime smuggler, but I also feel the person should not be on the hunt for Jedi. A person who is dedicated to being a smuggler regardless, but also has a first hand knowledge of other professions and how they relate to smuggler. Not a hologrinder, but someone who has tried out many of the professions.
I wish all the applicants luck, I'm sure there are many of you who would do a fine job.
