**UPDATE AUGUST 13th, 2004 from Stratics Chat Log**

[18:47] <Brekkee> *Jospre* Why do Smugglers get no love. Currently on test a stealth Nerf went in that prevents WUK's, AUK's, PLK's, MolClamps, etc. from pulling auto from crates. What was the reasoning for this move as it now really slows down the slicing process expecially for large orders.

[18:48] <TH> The autopulling from crates was the result of a change to a different part of the system. I have support from the team to change it back. its just a matter of time now. Sorry for the inconvenience and yes we do love smugglers

The following patch note:

Profession: Smuggler

You will no longer be able to slice an item by using a tool in a crate. You will have to remove it from the crate first.

You might also remember that nothing really came of this. Many of us were testing laser knife crates, hoping it was a mistake and they were fixing what the problem was.

Well, thanks to Luaplink on TC, I was told that this patch note... is entirely accurate.

I have verified it myself, we are no longer able to auto-pull from crates when slicing under Publish 10.

I have sent a question as to this behavior and am workingto get a response ASAP.

Yall deserved to know what is going on though. Thanks toLuaplink for bringing this to my attention.

Does this include not just knivers, but also clamps, and AUKs/WUKs?

Nothing is auto-pulled.

I had messages of 'You don't have an upgrade kit' and such when I had about 5 crates of the darn things on-hand and in my main inventory.

Uh... I think I read once that their wives and girlfriends play entertainers...

I think thats about it though...

I wonder why they could possibly think this is a good idea

This combined with the "Jedi balance pass" that I saw in the Jedi forum makes me wonder just what the devs are smoking...

ugh! Not this again! I thought we dodge that bullet. I would rather have my knives eat a whole crate instead of having to manually pull tools from a crate before i slice each weapon.

Why must the devs torment us?

i'll refrain from posting just how i feel about this, i think under the forum rules i would be banned pretty quick and have my post deleted.

Maybe its just some sick joke on TC ?

Nothing new with smuggler has been screwed up recently so that's why this is going through. We were due again.

/pessimism off

Seriously though I really do not want this to go through. It serves not purpose except to make things more annoying. What is the 'good' side that this is being put into do?

Is there a forum somewhere that we can hijack with outrage over this? The Game Guides and Core Systems mods are pretty quick on their feet now, and it'spretty obviousthat the devs don't read this forum..

You know, I used to pull UK's out of the crates waaay back when, before I knew they auto-pulled

It was horribly annoying, especially on bulk orders

There is no reason for this whatsoever

Who in their right mind complained that our ability to auto-pull a kit was too over powering?

Did a Jedi somewhere think that a Smuggler could slice too fast that way?

Are they trying to piss everyone off (i.e. Merchant nerf, the recent CM nerf, and god only knows what other nerfs are in store in the near future) so that we all drop everything and go through the FS quests to become a Jedi?

/sigh
