You are being quite optimistic they will answer. The realist in me knows the topic will get a response, long before this comment

Yea, in this case I think no response is a response. Meaning "no comment".

If I were them Id probably avoid this one like the plague as well.

If you levelled your Sentinel to 55 first and then found that having levelled your Juggernaut to 55 you just didn't enjoy it as much as the Sentinel (many reasons for this, might even be lack of opportunity to get into guild Ops) would you be opposed to a convenience feature that allowed you to relatively painlessly swap over to the Marauders ability set (a little regearing may be required, but that's not uncommon when changing spec.)?
Or, would you feel duty bound to sit down and grind out a third character (a marauder) to 55 from scratch?
Or, play a character you didn't enjoy just to complete content, participate in guild activities?
Or, just put the Juggernaut into hibernation never to be played again?

Allowing an AC swap feature adds to the range of options a player has, it takes nothing away.
In terms of PvE I personally would have figured it out ahead of time. I can't see leveling to 55 with an AC and then, only then after all that time, finally realizing that I can't stand it. That doesn't make any sense to me. I played a gunslinger some time back. I finished Ord Mantell and realized I didn't too much care for it. Switched to Scoundrel. If I make it all the way through the story and all the levels to reach 55... I'm OK with the AC at that point.

I don't particularly care either way. If someone wants to change ACs I wouldn't mind. I just don't see the necessity, but I'm not opposed to anyone else's happiness if it's not hurting me.

Vanguard/Powertech are the same thing. You play one you're playing the other in terms of play game mecahnics.

So if I'm playing a commando and want to do vanguard, I'd play a Powertech. I don't need to switch between Vanguard and Commando. If you've gotten so far down the line that starting over is too much of a hassle then clearly you didn't dislike the AC enough to warrant a change. Clearly, you were fine with it otherwise you'd have started over much earlier.

Now, I don't care one way or the other. I just don't think AC change is necessary. But if people wanted it I haven't heard why exactly it would be a bad thing. Sometimes it seems people just want to oppose stuff for the sake of opposing stuff.

Not not opposing for sake of it, I made a Gunslinger Smuggler but everytime I mod and fight as a scoundrel up close and bad at keeping at distance some mobs.

So for me and many other AC swap makes sense.

/Agreed. Still not sure if they are doing more harm than good by not responding.

Not responding, means not responding, no harm.

But we do like a response.

I think the majority of players really don't care one way or the other.

....and /thread tbh

It's the same six people arguing about it. Good for /popcorn though.
