Lately there has been a lot of "Heavy Air" as I think one post put it. Many posts of smugglers dropping and an overall feeling of desperation for any hint as to our future. Lot's of uncertainty and speculation including some suggestion (albeit jokingly(I hope)) that SOE should just remove the profession. BLAH! I say screw that noise!

I love this profession even as it stands now. Yeah we have issues. Yeah it could be better. Yeah we need a revamp/update. But you know what? We are still smugglers. We have our upsides. What other profession can survive despite being completely outmatched? None...but us crafty types who can feign that we are dead. Who else can improve weapons PERMANENTLY? nobody...just us. Yeah we have issues with some of our skills and systems but I wouldn't trade it for another profession. We will get our due eventually and until then, I am still proud to be a smuggler.

I say down with the "I am dropping" posts. Let's start with a new trend...this is my official I am Keeping smuggler post. Let's show everyone that we aren't a dying breed, let's get all of those who are keeping smuggler to show their pride!

Sataki,


Sorry to disagree but we are NOT smugglers. Sure, we have that name but NOTHING we do is smuggling.


Selling drugs...oops, 'spice'...is NOT smuggling.

Tinkering with weapons and armor is NOT smuggling.

Selling faction points is NOT smuggling.


Smuggling is the transport of goods with the intent of bypassing bans or duties imposed by governments. Nothing at all that we do is related to this in the least.

I'll quit before I surrender smuggler. That seems to be becoming the problem though.

"Jedi claims of being "broken" are like saying "But my TV isn't widescreen! It's broken! My TV can't show high-def pictures in 1080i, it can only do 720i! It's broken!" Meanwhile, crafters are saying "We'd really like to have a TV that's larger than 12" and gets more than 4 channels and doesn't constantly lose vertical control", and entertainers are saying "Can we get some color instead of this B&W piece of junk?" And smugglers? We're listening to radio programs of "The Shadow" and "The Abbot and Costello Comedy Hour" and hearing FDR's Fireside Chats. We don't even HAVE a damn TV, much less a broken one or a "broken" one by Jedi standards. I'd LOVE to be as "broken" as they are." - The Legendary Solo4114

Check my previous post in this forum for further clarification. I dropped FS and stopped my journey to Jedi, to return to Smuggler.

I just wish I could get that second slot without having to do the whole FS thing.

I have 2 toons, one on Valcyn and the other on Tempest, both are Master Smugglers.

There is nothing else in this game that interests me and as you said, it is time we started look at our positives.

In the movies there were only three iconic profs, Jedi, BH and Smuggler.

Our skills get used by both Jedi and BH, in space we have people saying they are smugglers because they belong to the smugglers alliance, butwe few who take it all the way to Master, when we know how broken our prof is,should truly be proud to wear our Master title.


I think SOE would love not to have to address the problems within Smuggler,but as long as we keep playing and maintain the Smuggler unity, they HAVE to notice and get to us one day.
