TH replied to a PM (that I happend to send to him right when he got the job).
He said he said wait a week. So I would think that he will probably talk to capn vem at that time.
Be patient.
i was also told that TH was going to come talk to us with in a week. well weeks up and not a peep.... i'm glad i didnt get my hopes up

If it was anyone but TH saying that, I would say something really sarcastic and jaded here.
But since it is...
I trust ya TH! Just don't forget about us poor, neglected, abused Squad Leaders!
And would you believe this is the first red name post ever in the Squad Leader forum?

Words... words... yup, more words.
You know what, words are all we've ever gotten. They have been, without exception, vague and dismissive regarding this profession,and they're always something along the lines of, "Sorry, not enough time in the day" or "We'll get to you" or "Be patient". Everyone knows what's wrong with this class, and we've known it for months. And then, after all the work our Correspondant has put into an otherwise completely fruitless and thankless job, oh goody a third dev response saying "Be patient". The people that have stuck with this rotten profession deserve so much more than that. And this new response coming from the much touted best communication method we have with the devs.
What this message really means is, "You're not important to us, we're working on all those other bugged professions and whatever new content we can think to put inbefore we're even gonna consider looking into your issues, much less fixing them, so stop bugging me I'm going as fast as I can. Be good little consumers and switch to CH, everyone else is."
Sopardon me if I don't think there's a cuss word explicit enough to express just how un-thrilled that makes me.

i hate to be so pesimistic but alot of what Doremarsays is true. i think every player that has stuck with SL this long has tired of being told to "hang in there"
i personaly belive SL and Cheifs are the two most broken professions in this game, and yet it feel slike the DEVs treat us like SL is as much of a priority as volenteriing at an old folk home.
we need reponces beside, "we'll get to ya when we gets to ya"
we need changes, the sooner the better.
i would like to know how they priorities what get worked on and what doesnt?
do professions that have more player get more attention then those with fewer? or do the DEVs just pick names out of a hat and say "ok this weeks random winner is Tailor! everyone work on nothing but Tailor issues"?
i dont understandwhypushing for players to unlock their FSCS has a higher priority then we do.....
other professions may have issues but at least one or more aspects of all other profeesions do work. all combate professions for the most part work. all crafting professions besides cheif for the most part work rangers for the most part work, comandos and combat meds are probably the best proffesion in the game right now, bount hunters work, CHs work Doctors work, SL, we dont work
the only skill we have is /sys and any player with th ability to use a capslock with their gr4oup chat can take the place of /sys......
im not saying that other professions dont need attention, but they have enough working aspect of their professions (besides cheifs) that they dont need emidiate attention.
SL have nothing.... not one useful skill that works we desperatly need a revamp and we need it ASAP
dont tell us to "hang in there" any more, we have been doing that for months, tell us when and what your going to do to fix us. the corespondent report is out there and its waiting for a DEV reponce. if you still have questions tell us what they are so we can answer them. we are ready to help work with the development team in any way we can to get our issues worked out, we just need to know what they want from us
Master Squad Leader = Dropped. Since then I mastered Ranger, and working on Bionegineer now (almost there!). I doubt SL will ever be cool enough to go back to.
