TC cap

I understand and agree with a TC cap. Hell I am happy that in the last few days I have been playing a game I thought was dead and gone forever.

But it is a test center server, which means that the people who are AFK a long long time (I mean 6-12 hours) are holding up spots on the server and not contributing actively to finding bugs.

No offense to people who spend their time to create marcos and camp and gruel in non combat proffesions that aren't as fun. I love sweet composite armor, and I know I would never have it if somebody didn't drudge through mining and crafting.

But this doesn't exactly accomplish the mission of the test center. Of course there may be bugs in crafting, macros, etc..., but if You are away for 12 hours or more, then You will have not much of a chance of spotting them.

And for the record, there are entire camps of mining campers with macros that had been there for at least 12 hours my first day, so I know it is happening.

Once a steady Live server is up, it would be cool to camp and run macros all you want, and I will pay handsomely for composite and a DE10, but until then would't it benifet the devs to bump people who have been away from their console for 6, 12 hours, maybe longer.

In no way am I saying if somebody steps out for a smoke, kick em', or if they are trying out macros kick em', but at a certain point the camping keeps other testers out and doesn't help.

Can't force everyone to test. When we passed about 100 people online consistently that fell to the wayside. The testers are testing, and the people who say they're testing and just play will do that too.

No harvies; crafters HAVE to resort to alt samplers. And even then it's a painfully slow process. Head on over to the swg-craft site and look at the schemes of just say WS; incredible variety of resources needed. This is not like other games, the crafting here is complex as heck. To test all the schemes of all proffs, you need a boat load of different resources.

Anyways, even at peak hours it only took me tops 10 minutes to get in. I really don't know what's the problem now.

You know, I was also one who was saying kill the multi instances just last week, but I'm seriously glad they only killed all but two. They increased the server cap + limited to 2 instances; I haven't had any 'real' wait times since (I've seen much worse on paid game servers).

In all of my support for stopping all the afk samplers, I had forgotten just how time consuming it is to get 10-20 different resources to craft.... and then the crazy time it takes to actually craft. It is manageable with two toons, but I would have really hated myself for supporting only one instance if it had gone that way (having spent ~8 hours or so running around to just grab mats for poisons, then another ~3 hours making them... not even putting a dent in experience).

I guess I'm just trying to thank the "team" for having the foresight to make the right call. Sorry for my rambling...

Sounds like anti-speedhack might be back up. Feel free to thank your friends that used it.
