BadmisterFrosty is the latest Sentaor to announce their resignation, citing frustrations with development choices... Seems the bad choices are finally getting to the Senators now... This follows the resignations of Starnick and Illiscander..

"(NEW) ChrisCao's "The Game vs. The Boards" Post, by Elyssa: The Senators discuss ChrisCao's controversial post regarding the forum community. The Senators stress the need for communication from development. BadMisterFrosty shares his frustrations with development choices and that he has cancelled his accounts and will be resigning. Elyssa also asks about the idea of a "Troll-Free Forum" that was brought up a few months ago. Khristen looks for ways that the Senators can help to make things easier to find and read for the development team. Thunderheart responds to several of the points brought up. The idea of a "Veteran Forum" is still on the table. It is often necessary for players to take breaks to avoid frustration. It isn't possible for development to respond to the huge volume of material on the forums, but they communicate as much as they can. Thunderheart also joins the discussion on ways for the Senators to help consolidate important information."

Its a start... if those appointed to "represent" the players no longer believe in what sony is doing, it raises the question for SOE are we doing something wrong... Granted they wouldnt know the answer if it walked up, intorduced themselves, and the slpped em in the face...
But like I said.. its a start.

The problem is, all the good ones quit between the CU and the NGE. Most of the Senate is/was composed of asskissers. Yes, there are some good ones among them, but some of the more prominent ones stalk the forums as if they were appointed honorary guardians of the Hitler Youth.
Eventually I see even the hardcore asskissers to start quitting. They THINK that they are above everyone else and that they are listened to. Sooner or later they will see that they are just unpaid tools of SOE doing a job that they couldn't pay a decent person to do: stick up for SOE's ethics and the NGE.
Eventually, you're going to see retards like Altyrell making up the Senate...
And trying to be an advocate for the playerbase in the Senate would be pointless anyway.
Ah MSNil...I had forgotten about that little whiny piece of trash...I would have *loved* to have had a Bounty Hunter on her server when she was grinding...
I'd send her so far into negative xp, she'd cry in her sleep...
I remember reading not too long ago about how she was griefed ingame by BHs....Made me smile.
Some will stick around, and while they no longer have a real purpose in the Senate, they are a remnant of a more... civilized time.
The irony of ep1-ep3 is... disturbing. Watch the movies again, you'll see it too.
Whats going to stop SOE from bringing in new people from the forums as senators?
Like for example Msnil...
Id resign too if I had a mouth full of shit. The senators are nothing but asskissers. They do absolutely nothing but post on the forums and participate in their little "secret" chats with X dev/community relations clown/forum mod/next joe to blow.
This is all leading up to a grand plot. Wepps will use his alt accounts to infiltrate the senate, dispose of the alt for a new one to repeat the process until they are all whiped out, and become Emperor of the SWG Forums, where he will have the power to rule his imagination and the thoughts of the people dumb enough to use the offical forums.
I have forseen it.

What she really means is a "if your post isn't WOOT I LUV TEH NGE" you are permabanned forum.
Anyone want to speculate on a date this happens? All the suck asses will eventually be made Senators.
Good I am glad... the more as I commented the other day' on the SOE boards...
I do not at all like Frosty, in fact I think he did not help or defend us at all, not that it was his job though.
He and I did not see eye to eye but I am glad he now sees the light and or is using logic.
(But hey, like the NGErs say: If you don't like it don't play...or some answer like that.)

I realize I said I quit. I never said it was forever
Ok... so SOE changes the game to go after the ferrit-on-crack people... Do they not realize that once those people are all thats left, they will loose interest and go somewhere else? The more they make the game into the drooling goober padded helmet playstyle, the more people they loose...
They say that is what the people wanted... Are the "people" they are talking about the Senators? These double secret probation focus groups? Or Helios and the rest of the devs?

Thats a bad joke and might I add, the worst Jedi ever.
She cried more then my 7 year old does. Not to mention her ideals and concepts have failed. She wanted PvE Jedi and all care bear lifestyles for that class.
Looks like that worked well.

It's going to happen. You know it is
The Senate will be Wepps, MsNil, Obraik, and Pirrg.
