What I want to see is the program disbanded. Check the mmorpg.com SWG forum for polls and vote.
The MMORPG boards are 5% good discussion, 95% trolls who have been banned from here because they can't express themselves without being a-holes about it.
You will not find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
LOL what a couple of dumbshits.
I, for one, have an account at the SWG boards...I am just not going to pay them $15 a month to chat with the dregs of the community. Almost everyone that I liked/respected from SWG has completely pulled out now.
Im sure there are plenty of us here with accounts that we could post on over there...We are just smart enough not to pay SOE for the "pleasure".

I sure stirred up a hornet's nest. Probably because I hurt the senator's widdle egos last night here. I guarantee they were reporting the HELL out of my posts there on this subject.
They should just shut down the Official Forums...They are pointless anyway. Leave a Galaxy Trade and a room for each server and cut the rest loose. Then they could fire TH, Virrago, and some mods and hire some coding devs.

I’m sorry, maybe on paper. But in the public eye (you may want to look that up senator) you do represent SOE in this capacity. You represent them because you are volunteers, your attitudes, manners or lack there off reflect direct to that of those that placed you in this position of responsibility, SOE.
you are unelected officials placed into a public mandate by the government in power.
Government in power = SOE.
You = Public servants
You being placed and not voted upon = Misrepresentation of the publics interests.

If a HUGE majority of your playerbase says you made a mistake, and please, PLEASE, undo it, why is it best to not listen to them? - too late for that now so it will never go back to the way it was.
Guess they need to update the GS description in the Weekly report in light of Virago's responses.
Who are the Senators and what do they do?
The Galactic Senators are Star Wars Galaxies players that have volunteered to help represent the players of Star Wars Galaxies. They also help the Sony Online Entertainment Development, Community and Customer Service team if they need assistance.
Many Senators carried on their voluntary role from their terms as profession "Correspondents", a program that was disbanded with in publish 25. New Senators have also been appointed after publish 25 by Thunderheart.
Galactic Senators specialise in various different areas of the game and between them they hold extensive knowledge of Star Wars Galaxies.
If you have an issue with the game and are not sure where to turn, chances are a Galactic Senator can help you, or at least point you in the right direction.
You can use the Senator Trackerto view posts written by the Galactic Senators.
Click on any name below to send a Galactic Senator a private message.
This response leads me to believe that they have none, they are just a select few that the devs favor, what ever your definition of favor is.
(why do i get the felling im going to get banned over asking a question , asked two times now as a matter of fact)
The galactic senators where selected because they didn't type in large aggressive font, posted their criticism in a constructive manner, didn't rant and rave like little children, didn't live in the past and continue to want to help improve the game, are really good at finding and duplicating bugs/exploits and the like.
ahhhhhh, but see, i tried that after the NGE hit. So i know that can't be the real reason. My posts were removed, deleted and shuffled away simply because they didn’t agree with the development of the time.
So, let me get this right. People that do not like the development direction are labeled as children (may I add the player base you were going for, by your own admissions) and those that agreed are reworded by forum titles and special forums?
I understand now.

Saying "Fuck Virrago" does kinda make me feel better and to be able to do it is kind of nice actually.
I wish these people would have a real interview without (Pre-approved) questions or some crap... someone needs to get in there and rip them a new asshole. BUT... a large enough one for all the world to see what kind of people they are.
I think it is safe to say that this is not a company people should do business with, not at all.

On another note Virrago is being an ******* today. What happened, he get word he losing his job alng with all the other devs? Nice way to talk to your paying customers. They sound just as bad as the duck team which will get no support because of it.

Yep.... about par for the NGE.
Supporting them is like supporting Korea... sure they make some stuff you need but in the end you never know how much damage they can do.

Why would we? You believe too much into the conspiracy theories...the only thing you truly stirred up was Virrago apparently...and he didn't ban you/vaporize you/send you home in a thousand pieces, close the thread or anything so it was still a discussion (albeit heated).

Sorry, but no.
My

was i offered this position to have a secret forum with direct
interaction with the DEVS.
My opinion was tossed out when the NGE hit unannounced, and with out warning.
My statement is completely true.
"But

By the very nature of this thread it is true, the PEOPLE are asking for them to be dissolved and there titles striped.
And
you your self have stated they Do not represent the players, or for
that mater have any other responsibility to anyone or anything, yet
they are given the grace of the developers by getting special titles
and with them, accesses to special forums in with they have the ability
to have more direct contact with the developers ...this by itself makes
them in direct influence over the development of the game.
