Okay, listen up, I have just about had it with you. I've stuck with SL since my first character. Back when bone armor was 'leet'. And out of all the people I've met.. you are the slimiest, dirtiest moron I have ever encountered. Just shut up and leave the "old guys" alone. We're not your friends. Think of us as the 60-year-old man who yelled at you to stop playing on his lawn.

HMMMMMMMMMM... who to trust, a market droid like Haden or you? I think I know who I pick and it isn't someone on a payroll related to this game. This "summit" is 50% PR and 50% future damage control so "we asked for your input this is what you wanted" can be thrown at us.

Go read this book before discussing things that you don't understand, like software development. You CANNOT throw people on a project and expect said project to develop at a faster pace.
The problem is not a lack of developers, it's a lack of the RIGHT developers, that is, those who are qualified and experienced enough with SWG's game system to perform substantial work on the combat revamp. So they have/had two options regarding the CB: either hire more developers and spend a few months teaching them SWG's game system, or wait a few months for JTL to finish. Guess which they chose, and for good reason?

Who are you to make comments like that? Someone who can search Amazon? The ultimate problem is that the number devs available for everything that will happen in the future is too low to sustain promised development levels and produce whatever marketing has on the docket. Have you worked in a really large development environ? They could have enough, they have SOE behind them with supposed experience in the field. If these guys can't plan and deploy on schedule nobody ever will and games with half the staff should really just quit. I don't follow that logic, and your blowing Amazon out your forum hole.

Hey, isn't that like saying that you can't do the Heimlich maneuver on someone because you've never done it before, only read and practiced it?

That's what the corrs are for. They troll these boards but they get to see what we write in the corr forum all the time.
I'm confused, the Devs are trolling? They should be banned!

I met Virrago this weekend and tried to get him to Ban TH. For some reason he wouldn't. I attempted to explain that TH was at the heart of most of the flame wars on these boards. He still wouldn't see it my way...

Im sorry I had to keep this information from you. But as many of you may know already, our revamp has been pushed back past the Space Expansion.
What this means:
There are both pros and cons with this delay. The con is obviously that its going to be more than 4 months before the revamp happens. But the Pro is that the entire JtLS Dev team will be free from that project and will go back to the core game. In short... GreenMarine will be able to work on this profession.
I have pretty much figured that the reason everything was being delayed so much was because of a lack of manpower. They just don't have enough devs.
Again nothing is set in stone and there is no exact date to look forward to. I will let you know more as we go along.
Well after today I must say if they made it so we could craft CDEF pistols with okay damg we'd be better off. I mean come on now we have to take all upgrade kits and clamps out of crates to slice. Not to mention the knife issues which was fixed for a whole day before being screwed up again. Now on Bria it won't even let us slice. I tried 8 times before giving up.
