It was pushed to Live because Bioware is quaking in fear at the new MMO's and games coming out this year. They know they've been too slow at getting content out, so to meet deadlines it seems better to bumrush half completed content simply to compete with certain other games launch week. Sad but true. What, you thought that Cartel Market sale was out of the goodness of their heart!? LOL! It killed 2 birds with 1 stone. A) Kept login numbers up during 4.4.14 (psst...that was another games launch) and B) Drained extra cartel coins that subs had saved up in preparation for the Housing project coming this summer that will undoubtedly use more cartel coins than actual in-game currency for its items. I DARE a Developer to refute me on this claim.
Oww, you got them on the run forum warrior keep at it. I'm sure those developers are so afraid.

Granted this should have been fixed. But it still works. Can you imagine the outcry if they delayed the patch for something that still basically worked?

Yeah, you are making no sense at all.
You want them to remove the cartel market team and add more "bug fixers".
Fine.
That'll remove maby 2/3rds (or even 3/4) of the games generated income.
Then all we'll get is bug fixes... for a month or two... until the game goes into life support.

Have fun with that.

(also, you don't spend real money on the GTN.)

The more you try to point out the obvious, the more people go into denial it would seem. Sooner or later, the CM will be blamed for all the evil that lays in the world... For sure.

A guy knocked on my door the other day. I opened it up and 3 guys barged in. They stated they were with the Cartel Market and were going door to door on official Cartel Market business. They shoved me aside, kicked my puppy and ran off before I could get my gun. True story.
