So...let me get this straight...I went through this ridiculously long *** quest 4 times with 4 different 55's and I still have 3 toons that need to do it....do the ones that already finished the quest still get the armor or just ones that haven't completed it?? I would love to just get the completed Forager and Dreadseed stuff without having to stomach another romp through those quests.

So have they confirmed that the storage case contains anything more than the chestpiece?
Because until then this whole discussion here is pointless

Quoted for Truth.

Even worse...being envious that at a later time in an MMO.. the same content is made more easily accessible to the players.. AS NEW SHINIES become available.

Who's clamoring for stuff to be put on the CM? I don't see much of that around here. I do, however, see lots of requests for more flash points, more war zones, more operations, and cooler new things to do in all of those.

What you'e saying is akin to saying, "Yeah, I had to punch myself in the groin repeatedly for 17 hours but I finally got this awesome looking Captain Kangaroo ring for my troubles! WORTH IT!"

That's... just.... wow.

I believe my previous point refutes this.

To me it's like if they're they're just slapping us in our faces while saying "Hey guys, guess what, you've spent a lot of time to dig up your armor, but you know what ? Now that you guys finally got it, we will give to all the others players once they complete the last seeker droid mission!".

No but in all seriousness now, please change this BW.
Give them a chest piece, or a helmet instead of a full set. IF these new players really want the set, well then they'll dig it up, just like we did. Giving a whole set really makes the achievements useless, and to me, it's disrespectful towards the players who obtained it with a Seeker Droid .
We can sum this up in three words:

Early Adopter Syndrome

Early adopters pay more for early access/use (in this case achievement). It becomes a "syndrome" when the early adopter is not pleased with the early access being "exclusive" and is envious that late adopters can access for lower investment cost.

The cure: don't be an early adopter if you cannot cope with progress and change.

What forum are you reading? People are constantly clamoring for items, gear, weapons and what-not to be put in the CM. While I agree it's weird, that's just our opinion.

Many people seem to want to avoid the playing to get the items, which would imply the playing is unpleasant to them.

Incorrect. Your previous point "attempts" (and fails) to refute.

Where? Can you link a single thread (outside of the CM Suggestion forum, obviously) in which posters are asking for new CM content?

I'm pretty sure I can find dozens of threads on the first 3 pages of the General forum here with players asking for decidedly non-CM content that they actually would be playing through.
