Aye, fair enough. You might want to check in over at the Ebon-Hawk.net forums too as I know one other guy was asking about a date/time too.

Is there a date set for the September summit? Also, where can we get the TS3 details needed to participate? Thanks in advance.

Faction: Imperial Guild Name: Maan Ade Mandalore Guild Leader: Aphrodisia Officers: Rione, Khajeesh PvP: None PvE: Casual GSF: None Role Play: Moderate Website: maanade.enjin.com

I know the feeling. As soon as I start flying a GS and start swatting Pubs (or Imps if I'm on Sennin), I suddenly get swarmed. Must be the Axe Effect, except with railguns of doom.

If you'd be so kind to add the Maan Ade Mandalore site to the list, that'd be grand. http://maanade.enjin.com/ I believe we're one of the oldest Mando guilds on the server at this point, but we certainly came over the day of the merger of LA to EH.

Up we go. I get that fixing Foundry isn't exactly going to be easy because you may have future plans for Revan so you can't pull what you did with Malgus in FE. But it would be nice if you could even bother to acknowledge that there's a bloody problem on one of the flashpoints which seems to get run a lot due to the Meatbag achievement.

Still not fixed. And still not read.

Yeah, right. I've been posting bugs to do with the Flashpoints and Ops for quite some time and you haven't even bothered to acknowledge that you know of them.

In fact, now it's made it so that if you complete it in Hard Mode you get the HM achievement for the Behemoth - which is good, working as intended. But having just run Kaon on Story Mode, I got my achievements for the Expulser and Commander but not the Behemoth.

Update now I've run both Kaon and Foundry HM: The Behemoth's achievement on Kaon HM is now working as intended (Yay, finally got Savior of Kaon). Revan and the Foundry Metas however, are borked still (Boo, last one I need for the overall HM FP meta on Imp side). Anyone want to confirm if Colicoid War Games is working okay now?

Alright, this is going to the top because in 2.1.1 there's no mention of either the issues I originally posted about (namely that defeating Revan gives no achievement in Foundry HM and the meta-achievements are messed up, and the fact that the Behemoth isn't granting his achievement in Kaon Under Siege HM either). Good to know the Colicoid War Games one will be fixed.

There are two main bugbears here which need to be looked at: Kaon Under Siege: The achievement for the Rakghoul Behemoth isn't unlocking at all. The KR-82 Expulser and Commander Lk'graath are fine. This is happening on both Republic and Imperial toons. The Foundry: Well, this one is completely borked but here goes - I think this one has a similar issue to Malgus in False Emperor in that Revan's disappearing act doesn't count as a death which means it doesn't count for the achievement. Not only that, it hasn't been retroactively awarded for killing him pre-2.0. There is also one further problem with The Foundry achievements and it's linked to the meta-achievement. If you look at all three, they are all showing completion for the basic, advanced and elite stages of the meta without having actually killed the bosses 10 or 25 times - plus the only thing required to unlock them is killing Revan once. In other words, these are not being counted correctly.

To clarify this based on my experiences to date: 8-man Eternity Vault (Nightmare Mode): The title for the speed run IS awarded (I got it roughly 3 weeks ago). However, the achievements for actually completing the encounters for the Eternal Pylons, the Infernal Council and Soa are not awarded. The achievements for completing each encounter without a single death have been awarded correctly, though. It's just the actual "You did it!" achievements for those three encounters. 8-man Jarg and Sorno (All three modes): Doesn't flag as completed if completed pre-2.0. Doing the encounter again will usually fix this but it should be counted retroactively.

If you're into the Mandalorian side of things, come and have a look at maanade.enjin.com - We take all comers and we certainly don't start kicking and screaming if you have to go AFK due to child issues.

Orange means you will get 2 points guaranteed. Yellow means you will get 1 point guaranteed with a chance of 2 points. Green means you have a chance of 1 point.

Not quite. You have to be Hero with the Makeb Forces to get those weapons and schematics, yes. But to get your new 55 Artifact gear, you go to your class vendor on Fleet at the Supplies section as before.

Indeed. While it is easier said than done, the point is that holding fast can and will be done, as it has in the past regarding this issue. Maybe it's just me, but at times I wish that forum infractions/bans were linked to in-game infractions/bans, like in some other games I've played. Then maybe people would think twice about coming on the forums and raving like a lunatic if it blocks their ability to play the game for a day or two. Or maybe not. Who knows?

Posted... I'm getting immensely frustrated with some people in the discussion thread - it makes me wonder if some of them are discriminatory or the like. You know the word I'd choose to use, but as I've suggested before, it would hurt the cause. Anyway, T-Minus 7 days until next Q&A. In the meantime, I suppose we can still hash out ideas/suggestions for implementation.

When can we expect an update regarding SGRAs? People like Georg Zoeller have been updating people on other topics such as Legacy Surnames - why not SGRAs?

Yes, I am playing a male SW at the moment, though I'm kind of leery about continuing a bit. As I've said numerous times, I would really like my pureblood and Quinn to hit it off. It just seems right.

Tannon (my Jugg): *picks up Blizz plushie* This thing annoys me. I will see it purged. *throws to floor and hears it squeak* Quinn: As you wish, My Lord. Tannon: ...I have changed my mind, Quinn. I will keep it. Clearly it is infused with the Dark Side. Quinn: But, my Lord.. Tannon: Enough, Quinn. This toy is now the ultimate cuteness in the universe. I will keep it, and it will keep me. Besides, you and I have "business" to attend to...

Exactly. I fit into the larger demographic in point 1 - young, straight and male. But I don't want SGRAs because I want to see female-on-female action. I would like them to implement them because to me I believe it would enhance the story and make it more realistic. I'm sure my fiancée, if she played, would agree as well for that matter. I mean, as I said I would love to be able to romance Malavai Quinn with my male Juggernaut. Why? Because Quinn, by virtue of the story, looks up to him and the respect is reciprocated by my character. It's a good basis for a relationship, and I would like to develop it further. And yes, there really is nothing to lose by keeping this issue active. Yes, people are going to be snarky at times. People are going to ignore what you're all saying. But eventually, something will happen and somebody out there will have to take notice. I can't guarantee how long it would take, but given the constructive way you have conducted yourselves throughout this issue, you'll get more supporters like myself who think this is an excellent cause to support. Anyway, add another post to the Community Q&A. I just edited my original post asking about Community Reps to asking about SGRAs.

Just as a point - my suggestion of outside help via George Takei was, as I put it, a "crazy thought". Meaning a long shot, and something to lift the doom-and-gloom attitude that had started to form. It wasn't completely serious. The last thing that needs to happen is that this whole scenario turns into a battlefield, as has been said before. Because where advocacy groups would support the cause - others would turn against it. That should really be a last resort above all else. Anyway, there is merit in the ideas of making a wishlist of what people would like to see, and I also see some degree of merit in giving a specific timeframe for BW to give the community some news on the progress of SGRAs. The question is, what is the best path to go forward, and why? (And before anyone asks why suddenly I have begun posting on this after 80+ pages plus other iterations, I was reading through the Q&A thread and saw that a lot of the posts asked about SGRAs. So continuously asking is getting you followers, of a sort. Besides, I personally believe in equality - and part of me really would like to see my pureblood male Juggernaut have a fling with Quinn.)

I could say what I really think of people like that, but that would be lowering myself to their level. Anyway, last night I had a crazy thought. If BW continues to ignore this line of questioning, what would happen if someone famous were to join the cause? Someone quite vocal.. like.. George Takei. Yes, I know ST and SW are two different areas of Sci-Fi - but look at what George did regarding that homophobic basketball player. Now, imagine what he could or would do regarding SGRAs in TOR. The results would be quite hilarious, I think.

Question: When can we expect the implementation of SGRAs in The Old Republic? Is there any news at all regarding them?
