i've seen a number of constructive posts on this forum. The problem is is that you can pretty much break the forum pop up into two groups of people, theyre so at odds with one another that most threads generally devolve into babble and name calling.

i liked the chronicles of spellborn

you do realize that by people posting gripes (read: things they think could use some improvement.) And posting about bugs they ARE TRYING TO HELP MAKE THE GAME BETTER. Kinda hard to do that when a rabid section of the fan base is advocating for people to stop posting about problems, seems a bit counterproductive. Do/have some people lied/exaggerated about problems? You'd be an idiot to say no, i do not however believe it is anywhere near 100% of the people posting about gripes/bugs. edit - is also baffles me how many people agree with the op, how exactly again is everyone lieing if the dev team has fixed or is in the process of fixing bugs that people have been reporting. Doesnt make any sense.

these bugs have nothing to do with people wanting the game to be more like wow (most of them anyway.) It's simply a case of things just being fully broken or partially broken that need to be fixed. I honestly don't understand how wow was brought into this. thats not what it means at all. Can macro's be amde to do such things? Yes they can, but only if the DEV team allows it. This seems to be a hard concept for people to grasp, the dev team has the final say on what is allowed via macroing when it gets put in. I highly doubt they'd go the way of rift or swg. What most people want (basing this of friends and what i've seen in numerous posts.) seems to be one of 2 things. the ability to create mouse over macros, and modifier macros (shift, alt etc.) Both of which are extremely useful and are not game breaking. They also arent "one button hit to do all attacks." i agree I have target closest enemy enabled and theres still a number of times it doesnt work properly. very possible. why are you so combative? :/

don't bother, its not worth it ;o (talking about making sense, not about subscribing.)

i highly doubt that, I am very much in love with this game and i am very, very happy it pulled me away from wow. That being said i've seen a lot more of the opposite of what you suggested. Anyone who seems to have an criticism of anything and i do mean anything, large or small gets lambasted on these forums. It's quite off putting.

theres this wonderful thing called metrics. even without forums posts BW would know.

its been quite profitable for me :/ im not making this up.

my TH is around 260 on my sniper (at work so i cant be exact!), the past few days of playing ive looted, 5-7 blues, 2 mod-able armor pieces, a large amount of greens and a couple epic mods, this is on top of lockboxes. love it when i get a green lockbox and a blue item box

just because something hasn't happened to you doesn't make it bs. I've also had this happen to me, it can be annoying, not game breaking, just annoying.

They ask for proof, its given (bugs were asked for and a post listing some was linked, weather or not you experience them or think theyre important is of no consequence. you asked you a list of bugs and you got it) and either you get get no response or they try to skirt around them. I had heard this community was much different (on the forums) than wow's is/was, remind me to smack whoever told me that.

except he/she was right in his/her original post.... this game has had an awesome launch and my friends and I are having quite a good time. I've played alot of MMO's that have had fairly large launches (not as big as this one obviously) and the after the free month runs out numbers drop off hardcore. This concern is always in the back of my mind when a new game comes out (especially if i enjoy the game as much as i do swtor.)

i didnt keep tabs on how much it made me, i know at 30 i have 400k. i know i made a large chunk of money off scavenging and treasure hunting as well. slicing/scav/treasure ^^

augments sell for quite literally doo-doo. I have 20 something of them in my cargo hold (blue and epic only.) On my server atleast they just dont seem to sell, the green ones just get vendored. schematics, it really depends on what it is, i've had a number of schematics where im thinking "all right a decent looking schematic might make a few thousand off this one" only to find out theres 40 on the gtn and people have put theirs up for 3 times less than the gtn's suggested price.

i made 2k from 1 quest in alderaan, that doesnt include all the crap i vendored from it (had alot of it, nothing like killing packs of mobs to get to the hive behind them so i can poison them and just before the last mob dies someone runs up and poisons the hive -_- rinse and repeat 3423423256575639 times.) chances are the bulk of your credits came from vendor items and quest credit rewards. just my guess.
