Yuritau Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 This is something that's bugged me right from the beginning of original beta. It's not a major issue, but it still annoys me a little bit when it comes up. It seems that the vast majority of players all agree to the same set of abbreviations for the classes, but there remains a small number of holdouts. So let's clear this up, for good. There is only one Warrior. There is only one Explorer. There is only one Trader. There is not now, and there never was such a thing as a JW, a TW, a JT, a PE, or a PT; and the only TE is the Enforcer. These are the correct class abbreviations: Terran Enforcer = TE Terran Trader = TT Terran Scout = TS Jenquai Defender = JD Jenquai Explorer = JE Jenquai Seeker = JS Progen Warrior = PW Progen Sentinel = PS Progen Privateer = PP 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodsmith3510 Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Would also have been nice if the titles used in game matched the ones used in the creator seeing as it was here first LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimeni Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 (edited) This isn't a big deal, but it's something I've noticed since the very beginning - Most people unnecessarily complicate class abreviations with additional letters. But there are a few people out there that get this right and are holding out. What is the purpose of class abreviations? To quickly and concisely convey a single message. The race and class of the subject. in that spirit, why would I convolute it with additional letters? There is only one of each of these. TW, TT, TE, PW, PT, PE, JW, JT, JE. Terran Enforcer = TW Terran Trader = TT Terran Scout = TE Jenquai Defender = JW Jenquai Explorer = JE Jenquai Seeker = JT Progen Warrior = PW Progen Sentinel = PE Progen Privateer = PT A letter for each race, and a letter for each profession. A gloriously simple naming convention that quickly communicates race and class of 9 possible variatiions with only 6 characters. The very spirit of efficiency and annotation! (Please accept this as the comedy it was posted as, since I actually agree with the OP ;)) -edit to fix formatting Edited December 21, 2012 by Kimeni 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiSL Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 its actually PW PS PP JE JD JS TT TE TS And that's where all confusion on items "Warriors only" , "Explorers only", "Tradesman only" comes from... Have to agree with Dakynos here :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
