When i created my alt.. Reelov Hooth, i took my first step outside of Combatant. My Main, Shilo, has been a Ranger for a very long time. i knew nothing about crafting.
When i took up artisan, i fell in love with crafting. It was so complex, so rewarding, and so addictive.
I remember making bone armour at the crafting stations outside of the Coronet Spacestation and then i would sell them, and i would see my email light up as noobs would perchase my armour, cdef weapons and such. I got further involved and mastered Weaponsmith.
I spent a very long time, gathering resources, and at the same time selling loot, pups, vehicles and repair tools. I had so much fun, and i longed for the day when i would have a full collection of resources, plus a +12 suit. I finally collected all the resources i needed by then, before the CU Reelov was a Master Pistoleer and Master Weaponsmith, i planned on selling loot to purchase my +12 points, then my WS career would begin. However the CU took away my pistol skills, and reduced me to level 10. I stopped playing for 5 months, recently in September i came back , and decided to harvest high end resources to sell and buy my +12 points. Over the past two months, i have aquired nearly a million resources and i planned on a grand opening of my resource vendor, and announce it to everyone...
Then the Other day, i here that the NGE will be coming... now i realize that not only will my 12 points not be needed, but all my excellent resources i spent so much money, and so much time gathering are not to excellent as 2nd to 6th top resources will do the job just as good with a resource buff..
I have crates of Pre-CU stocks, as i made a bunch of components before the CU incase they turned out better...only the stock turned out better... Now they will all be worthless.
I am so disapointed, so angry, so frustrated that all this time, devotion, and my dream has been crushed.
No other game has captivated me, inspired me as SWG has over the past two years of playing...now my game card runs out in a few days, i have 2 more cards, but im wondering if they are really worth it. or if i should sell them off.

Yes it sucks... As this all was going down my stomach really did turn. I could feel the empty twisting grow as I read more and more. Seeing the conversion test forums puts the final nail in the coffin for me I think. I have been a Weaponsmith since Beta3, nearly 2yrs7months of being a WS. All this is going down the tubes.
