Hmmm
I think most of the people that have quit are going to go play the EMU.
Well that's great. B) Doesn't mean EVERYONE from the NGE must do it too!
Can't people just accept others don't want to without malice?
And as for what makes a community. I don't know all the people you would refer to. My community is my friends in game and what they make of it for me. And those people are not the same ones you mean and never even talk about the Emu. You can't judge a whole server from people here or that you knew in game.
Run the poll to a certain time and then draw conclusions from that. :mellow:

Community meant, well to me anyways:
-Close friends (most of them the RL kind)
-Close allies (Imps & Rebs I used to fight with PvE & PvP)
-Not so close allies
-Folks on the fourms that I probably never saw ingame
-List of buyers and sellers that made the player run economy work.
That's who I am refering to. I am not saying EVERYONE RIGHT HERE has to be part of it, but I read Rankin's post and was confused by his intentions. He explained it better, and I understand it now. No where have I or multiple people on this thread displayed malice as opposed to object curiosity and desire to see all the wonderful people from here join us over there. I do not think that is so wrong.

Sometimes I think we who won't play it almost feel that we are getting hated upon sometimes. Not by you so much Fluffy, but why should I have to defend why I am or am not going to play on the Emu?

Where on this thread were you asked to defend yourself? Folks only question Mr. Fish cause as he originally put it "remember who and what you left behind". And, lots and lots of people fall under the you and responded. No one is going to look down upon any person for not playing in the EMU (well, anyone with half a brain), but when a gauntlet is thrown down like that, a response, thought out or not, should be expected, no?

The poll question itself is where we were asked to defend ourselves:
And yes, a response is definately expected from what the fishy put down, but I was referring to this sentiment in the poll itself. Fishy probably wouldn't have said anything unless it was asked of him.

I have all that in the NGE now. More so than before maybe.
I don't have time to play both versions. So I would lose all that if I stop playing NGE.
So I have my community. But thats me, It's not everyone.
QFE What Tiv said. :thumbsup:

Okay, so you are not going to the EMU because you are very happy in game now, and see no good reason to start over? Great, reason well stated. What's the big deal then?

They didn't ask those who ere going to the emu to state why...how about them apples. (and yes I know that's knitpicking)
Generally speaking when someone asks me why I'm doing what I'm doing, then they want me to defend my actions. I may be doing something they like or not like, but it's still creating a defense for those actions.
While you may not read anything accusatory from a poll like this, others could. It's like "hey everyone ELSE is playing this cool game, why on earth aren't you?"
I'm a woman so I tend to read into things more than they are stated, but that is how I felt about this poll.

I've got no grudge with anyone here. EMU. NGE it's all good.
Like Tiv said. For people who like the NGE it's very frustrating to constantly see people knock it. Especially from those who quit. All we get is that we are wrong and must be mad not to play the Emu.
If you don't like it you don't need to try and put off the people who do.
And that's not you or any one person but a generalisation. We know the Devs did wrong, we know SOE suck. Don't need to tell us more. But if you quit the game then it doesn't affect you more. Let it go.
I'm too tired to go on more. You said my reasons better than me. B)

I don't remember making a big deal. Everyone else went a bit loopy.

Curse
Bored to death... maybe...
The only reason I knock the NGE is because they removed a great game for it. And when others choose to play the NGE over the Emu it kinda rasies a flag in my head that says "WTF". I honestly cannnot see myself having fun in the NGE nor anyone else. Believe me I've tried, but staying in that game will only make you sad since it changes every 3 or 4 months and more and more people leave.
IMHO, NGE is a disgrace to what it used to be (the game in general). If you guys want to continue playing it, go ahead is your fun, not going to take it from you. If you want to find me I'll be with Artica and the others trying to rebuild RU in the EMU servers.
Curse, just let it go. They are having fun with the game, let them enjoy it. Is like when you were/are playing EQ2, which SUCKS (after certain update). I don't understand why you play it, but you enjoy it, so the rest of us will have to accept it. Same applies to our friends in this community. ^_^

i cant speak for everyone but before this thread started i did find something slightly confusing. From reading these forums i noticed that some of you guys who are currently playing SWG talk about how you enjoy the NGE etc which is fine by me. however i got the impression that many of you enjoyed the good old days much more BUT given the option you would still pay to play the NGE. that is the bit i was finding a bit puzzling
however it has been explained to a certain extent in this thread why you would choose to stay where you and that is fair enough to me
