What does TTK mean? I pretty much agree with everything you said here, just need to understand that one. I agree that the tank/healer balance has improved, but I don't quite think it's where it should be. Tanks have always been underpowered in this game, and 2.8 is no exception to that.

And that means uncalled-for hostility will be any different? Please. Plus, since when does civility need any reason other than itself in order to be practiced?

Your thread is a fantastic method of not getting the developers' attention in the way one'd ideally want to. Insulting their intelligence will do no good to your goal nor your chances of being heard.

I agree, that'd be neat.

Dem pugs.

I don't think it's that bad... but yeah. Terrible idea.

Frankly, whether SWTOR and its updates are any good so far quality-wise is a different thing, yet at the same time related. I was thinking mostly of the lack of communication between both. Customer dissatisfaction makes the community offensive, which leads to the devs appearing less and THAT makes us even more unhappy. It's a vicious circle that we can't seem to be able to get rid off. All that said, improving the many faults of the game would be the best first step to fix all this if you ask me. From there, we could be a little nicer and then, perhaps, the developers themselves will post more. Or maybe I'm just being much too positive. Lol.

So. Much. This.

And that, my friend, is the biggest fault of this forum (and the internet as a whole). The playerbase are definitely not the only ones to blame for the lack of consistent communication between us and the developers, true, but we're definitely involved and our behaviour is not at all presentable. Both parties are to blame, and I think that if one of them moves past all this and do better, the other would react accordingly no matter which (us or devs) is what. Will it happen? No, not anytime soon. I can still hope, though.

This. I'm not a fan of Bolster in the 55 WZs, but oi, insulting the devs like this isn't going to change a thing for the better.

I'm pretty sure I do this one more than I actually play the game.

Now where's that sticky?

I only leave when real-life issues come up.

Same here.
