Welcome!
Thanks for stepping up for this is no eassy task. The shoes you ahave to fill might be big but someone has to fill them.
You will havew my full support.
If you do not mind, can you give us an insight as to what a TKA should be?
Good luck and best wishes!

Oh great he's a commando too can someone say conflict of interests lol.
Example:
Can you get the heavy weapons unclasified as melee so we can get the proper dmg boost when attacking them?

"no i like being able to use my flamethrwer from 64m and specials at 16m while dealing 2.5X dmg to rifle and carbineers"
FYI 16m is not melee range, i wish it was its not melee range is 5m
lol, we'll see i guess
Like I said, I'm going to do my best to leave my personal opinions on things like this on the back burner.
Although I am surprised you'd pick on this particular issue. I'd think that most TKAs would prefer having the FT classified as a melee weapon, as our unarmed toughness mod mitigates that type of damage.Normally, I'd ask for a group opinion here, butit's a moot point, as they've already said they're going to change it.
And I really do appreciate the vote of confidnece from you Valkari. I'm going through the correspondent boards right now trying to get a handle on the state of things.
And yeah, I am a commando as well, but I'm a TKM first and last. Don't worry, I'm not going to see the TKA profession through commando-colored glasses.
Mister_heavy can you just drop commando for us please?
I did i'm much happier now commando is not much fun.
BTW Mister_heavy will be fine he reads the posts and has acnowleged his possible biased, I hope he will live up to expectations
Oh and why i pick on the flame thrower issue is that even though our toughness downs the initial dmg it does nothing to save us from the inevitable buring to death in two to three tics which unlike bleeds takes 15 sec instead of 45 secs.
We'd, i at least, would like to see heavy weapons classified as rifles so we get the 2.5x dmg mod so there is a chance we could down them before getting fried.
Even with this there is still only a chance since they get 16m and we get 5m
Mister_Heavy!
Join me in welcoming him as TK correspondent. I know he will represent you all very well.
Good luck Mister_Heavy, you will need it. 
Heavy,
If there's anyone that'll fill those big samurai sandals, you'll do it. Good job, we'll support you.
No doubt, Thunder has left quite a legacy to live up to. I'll do everything I can to maintain the great flow of information between the devs and this community.
Couple of things about me:
I've been around this forum since opening day, and a TKM since beta 2. I certainly have my own opinions on how TKAs should work and what our place should be in the game. However, I here to say that I'll never put my opinion over the collective opinion of this community. I'm here to represent you and I'll do just that. I will also tease you as much as possible by dropping obscure hints about upcoming changes... like I said, I'm trying to fill Thunder's shoes
I'll make an update post once a week, whether there's anything to share or not, just so you guys know I'm out there and keeping track of the issues.
For now, I'm going to get acquainted with the correspondent forum and see what's in progress. I really appreciate the opportunity to work with you guys on making this profession all it can be. Hopefully we'll be able to work together and havea lot offun.
