Galaxies Tuesday: Brenlo Speaks

Brenlo Speaks being what I named the document. As you see all dialog between the players is pretty snappy.  This document is really messy and I’m going to try to make it a little less so though I don’t like to edit, just present what is in the files.  These are just small back and forths between Brenlo and players.  When he first started, I thought maybe he might be a force for good and he would smooth communications, but perhaps the time for that had passed.


Unknown Questioner:

Hey brenlo stupid question, not sure if you are still paying attention, but do you think it wold be possible to reformat the front page to show all the professions, that would stop a lot of misguided posts.
 
Only way to do this for everyone is to shift the forums over from portal view. You can adjust how you see the boards in your preferences, if you change from portal, you should see all the profession forums at once.

Also as a general FYI, I am going to be tinkering with these forums and you may see some boards get shuffled around or even archived. For example the Fan Fest boards will probably get archived until the next Fan Fest is announced.

Brenlo, you’re moving the fan fest stuff? Seems a pity as I thought there might be a lot of interest in it next year.

Clown. =P

I’ve read it in many announcements and such from devs but I don’t see the day it will be fixed. I am waiting to respec and I need it fixed, don’t feel like losing 10 levels atm.

Howdy,
The word I have recieved is that this is fixed. However it was not a retro-active fix. Folks who did lose levels, should contact CS. Those who respec now, should be fine.

I like the look of that but where’s the Dev Tracker?
 
 
Odd it should still be there. Methinks it is not hard coded on this board.

At the moment, I have no news for crafters. I do apologize for the lack of updates and as soon as TH, I or one of the other folk has news, we will post it.


Folks,
Smed has a great many things to do in a given day, week and month. He stops in here when he is able and he reads a lot more than he posts. I know this as he asks me about specific posts all the time. His post was to gather your ideas for the team, to kick off that conversation in a focused format. Which it accomplished. The SWG folks are working on the top issues that you discussed. Please do not expect Smed to post here often. He is actually quite the busy guy. He is aware of your concerns and he is pressing the team to work on the top problems.
Thanks gang.

Actually, we were discussing how this position would affect gameplay. Then it got to Cowbell, my bad…

I think there is a misconception. We do not impact gameplay directly as members of the Community Team. We offer suggestions, we pass along your thoughts and feedback and we try to gauge your reaction. We are here to educate (when appropriate) entertain (with forum games and conversation) and inform (when we have information to give)
So we work with the development teams. We also work closely with marketing, PR, webedit and CS in order to try and accomplish those tasks. Sometimes we do better than others. =)

Not at all. I moved all the posts to the Development Discussion forums.  That will be the new central hub.  Messages were going to too many different boards and some were getting lost.
