Do you actually plan on fixing the crashing issues?. or just say you did then delete them from the patch notes again?

can you verify whether or not tanking stats (defense, absorb, shield rating etc...) are working as intended in PVP? i play a 31/0/10 Assassin Tank in full tank gear (Champion Survivor). I dont notice any increase in survival vs a similar geared dps class and worse survival than a healer class. Yes, i know how to play my class and i know that i have a lot of utility. My question is regarding our non-existent or marginal level of survival above other similar geared dps/hela classes who are not spec'd as pure tanks nor don full tank gear. The massive amount of dps we give up by going with this tank pvp set shows almost no benefit in survival other than the expertise we gain (which anyone can get with pvp gear) from it and some more hp (about 3-4k more...so like two crit hits from a dps).

i am wondering if this is working as intended or if there are any plans to actually make tanks be viable as tanks in pvp, specifically assassin tanks without having to burn all CD just to survive for a few seconds which other classes that are not tanks have.

Seconded

When will Same Sex Relationships be implemented for us and how will this impact our previous companions?

I see that most of the questions so far relate to the following subjects in no particular order.
1. Server Population & Imbalance
2. Bugs & Technical Support
3. Companions
4. Legacy
5. Guild Utilities

My Question Is:
Subject: Guild Utilities

Do you have generic or specific plans on guild utilities, including but not limited to the following:
A. Guild Bank
B. Guild Calendar
C. Guild DKP System
D. Virtual Guild Community, aka: Guild Space Station or Guild "House"

Myself and many others have submitted tickets for not receiving loot when defeating a boss ops or hm. These tickets state that it has been referred to the correct dept and that we will receive no further update on the issue. None of us have received the loot in question and have waited over a month with no further reports. What is Bioware going to do to make sure that earned loot is given when it's bugged or just not received, or are we just out of luck as the emails we receive suggest?

Do you have plans for addressing the slower ability animations on the republic side vs the Empiral side?

Do you have plans to make it easier to take down healers in PvP? As is, healers can survive for nearly forever in PvP unless you outnumber them and with 2-3 healers in an arena staying together it's basically impossible to kill that group

Are there any plans to fix the Twi'Lek headgear issue with hoods not being available and Headgear in general not being designed around the Lekku?

Why do the trooper's (specifically Vanguard, shield specialist) advanced class abilities appear to not be working in PvP?
