Actually I have a better idea. One that people will need not make another account for either.
All we need is to use the launchpad chatroom swg discussion.
This way we will have no lag issues and we can have a comprehensive discussion about the profession. Without players haveing to create alt accounts and so forth.
I would also suggest doing it at 6pm eastern time on sunday allow the west coast guys to get involved, and the brittish players to still get involved.
Its 3pm for westcoast 6pm for east coast, and 9pm for west coast.
I highly doubt that we can do anything about the adks, but we may be able to discuss the devs doing something to improve our profession.

11pm UK time, midnight CET. Oh, and we are allowed to stay up late for special occasions 
I tend to agree about the ADKs. It's too late for anything to be done about those, there are already players loaded up with enough to have an indestructable set of armour to go along with their indestructable weapon. This a monster the whole game is going to have to learn to live with.

It's a good idea to talk about that sort of thing but i think we should schedule this more in the "future" since not everybody can attend to it in short notice.

If anything, hopefully we will be more organized next time something like this happens

Actually if each of us takes the time to post this link on our server forums we could probabally get atleast 20 players to talk. Hopefully the correspondent can pass this on to some higher ups unlike in the past this is a very constructive thing. We will not end up lagging up the game or anything of that sort. I did some thinking and came up with a list of stuff that might help us out.
Nothing too extavagant mind you just some stuff to stir up a bit more business.
Increase the general use on limited use weapons like rocket launcher. Right now these are just really expensive to make, and seeing as they are near useless in pvp and combat is still a tad bit unbalanced. Increased uses on heavy weapons even for a couple weeks would be nice to have.
Give weaponsmiths a real to repair bonus on weapons.
Boosting the ap on some weapons. Yeah this whole system is changeing anyway, but in the meantime what harm does bumping dh17s and scout blasters really hurt.
Reduce the complexity of low level grenade schematics. So we can gleam more profit from grenade sales.
Give someone anyone a beam rifle certification. Give it to a ranger give it to a ch just give it to someone. With this we might sell a few hundred of these.
These are the things we need them to look at. Surely the CURB will help but that is a ways off, and even if one of these things were applied per week we would be able to cover with the new candy for the week kind of thing.

Gentlemen, the idea has merit. However, this has a few problems:
- Short lead time. I can't be there, for one. You'll get alot more people in attendance if you give about a week's worth of lead time.
- Necessity. You'll forgive me, but what exactly is it that you wish to discuss?Beyond recent changes, what topics do you want to bring up that aren't already on our issues list?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to shoot down your plans, merely asking that you think them through and be a little better organized first.=)

I see no reason why we couldnt use a meeting to just get started. We could use the first as a trial run. That would make it easier for us to organize a plan of action. This chat plan would give us a means to quickly discuss pros and cons. Things that we could discuss are already issues we know are issues.
Required sliceing how to fix this problem.
Overly complex weapons.
Limited use schems.
You have to crawl before you can walk. The first outing will allow us to feal out the waters and come up with a plan of action nothing saying we cannot have further meetings in the future.

Feel free. My point is simply if you want to get more participation, you need to give people some more advance notice. =)
