Thread: Thanks Smuggler Forum For What I Didn't Get.

I just think that as a new player I should thank for the things I didn't get in this forum.


I didn't get a bunch of whining posts about the CU, and how SOE sucks, and how all sorts of people will respec to Smuggler and we should treat them like dirt.


I didn't get any disrespect from people here because I was new and asking questions.


I didn't get discouraged about becoming a Smuggler because this or that was borked and Smuggler sucks, so I didn't get told to not become a Smuggler.


I didn't see people getting slammed for wanting to have a discussion, and I didn't see ideas getting flamed like a steak on a grill.


I came in here as a noob and I didn't get a lot from you folks.


So thanks. I mean that. What a great forum and an equally great profession.

Hehe. Honestly, it's always been like that in here. I think those that post in here tend to be "real", dyed-in-the-wool Smugglers, and that attracts a certain kind of person. Just like our canonical brethren, we seem to stick together pretty well, and have a sort of camraderie going on that translates over to new players pretty well. It's always felt, in here, not unlike hanging around a cantina swapping stories of bad spice runs and telling outrageously exaggerated stories of beautiful girls and so on. At least, to me.

There's also some that would indicate when you've been waiting on the Devs as long as we have, you learn perspective. And there is some truth in that, too.

It's kinda the the way we are around here. In fact, it's one of the major reasons I'll never drop Smuggler. The people in here are a breed of their own. The nature of Smuggler (especially up to this point, pre CU) was such that it attracted a different kind of player. And I for one LOVE it.


While I'm bragging I'll send out thanks to the Smuggler brothers as well. Always a pleasure, gents.

What made me happiest, is that when I finally did drop Smuggler for a month or two(needed a break, but it was still the hardest thing I've ever done in this game), noone around here treated me any different. No "You dropped it, so stay out of our business!" and stuff you sometimes get elsewhere. Made me happy, especially since I always knew I'd be coming back.

Because this is a community first, I think.

Oh and welcome Gaitan.

hehe, that guy got that totaly right.Mesa isSmuggler since more than a year now, and also I don t really get into this forum stuff, I really enjoy beeing here. ATM, I'm also CM, and there is so much whinin' in that forum, it's unbeliveable. I think thats cause Smuggler always have been a more or less buggy/ignored Profession, so ya need the right sense of humor for really playin' as a smuggler. Think it takes mo' than a CU to piss us off!

Yeah, that's a large part of it. Also, Smugglers just aren't that uptght. Ever see Solo or Calrissian or Karrde screaming about their profession being broke? Nope. Just roll with it, man. We'll /lowblow them all when it matters. Unless it's still broke. But there's always Last Ditch. XD

Welcome to the Community mate. And I think it's because we're more than a Profession... We're a Lifestyle. *grins*

Welcome to the club, and glad you like it here.


/whisper psst... if ya wanna have a lot of fun, make a post claiming that there's a patern to slicing results post-CU. Then you'll see the smuggler community at its finest!
