I also think TV marketing had a lot to do with it too.

I don't know...I live in a big city area. I haven't seen a star in the sky in a long time.

I don't know why, but "I'm leaving" threads rank right up there in "nails on a chalkboard" annoyance as Chuck Norris jokes in general chat. It's always followed by "can I have all your stuffs"? It never accomplishes anything. It's pretty much the equivalent of being in a store full of hundreds of people and waving goodbye as you walk out the door.

Oh sorry. I'm still a rookie when it comes to forums, even though I have over 80 posts, LOL.

I just wanted to make a formal plea to the devs to put the "Star" in Star Wars: The Old Republic. By this, I would love to see non-linear space questlines and travel. I'm glad some minor attention was paid to the space combat, however these are nothing more than optional mini-games. I'd love to be able to explore the galaxy instead of quick travel from one planet to another...maybe along the way get attacked by rebel/imperial ships and have to fight them off. Wishful thinking, I know, but I thought I'd try anyways

Yeah, I'm personally a sucker for expansions. I rarely play WoW, but for some reason I always like to try out the latest expansion, just to see what the fuss is about. Sadly, I admit I'll wind up buying MOP just for the heck of it. I may find myself going back to Vanguard once it becomes F2P, even though there hasn't been any new content since 2006. I think the only one I haven't gone back to is EverQuest and Final Fantasy 11, just because I'm not a fan of non-quest based grinding MMORPG's anymore. I need NPC's to give me a reason/quest to kill 15 rats, go back, turn in the quest and grab a quest to kill something else. Call me spoiled by the new gen of MMORPG's I guess. (Yes, I realize there are quests in both those games, but they are not quest driven games like SWToR, EQ2, etc...)

The problem with re-rolling is having to start the Legacy system over again. I may be wrong, but the upcoming legacy system sort of encourages all your toons to be on one server, and build Legacy points, regardless of Faction. I wouldn't want to start over and have to create an all new Legacy all over again. Mine's building up quite nicely on my server as it is.

Heh, not to mention F2P in 10 days. I miss all the good and fun times in EverQuest, but I don't miss the grind. Group stands in a corner, ranger pulls, tank tanks, healer casts a complete heal over and over....rinse repeat x1000000. It made me feel like I was in a Skinner box for 7-8 hours a day.

Also, if you are a full Heal spec, using your group heal with your ranged tank is nice, as you can heal both yourself and Iresso at the same time.

Saw one on JC today... "She gave me Sithilis" BioWare, how about a guild name filter, for the love of mankind?

Oh, my apologies...I've been away from the game for a week and found this little surprise last night. Thank you much.

I want a Rodian. I know they look funny, but I enjoyed my Rodian Bounty Hunter in SWG. Would love to re-create him on SWTOR.

Is there any way to drop the new lighting up of the UI buttons? (The GCD I believe is what it's called?) It's very distracting and annoying. I'd like to toggle them off to where they used to be before the patch please.

I couldn't agree more. Right now it's just Wars, no STAR Wars. Granted there are a few space missions, but they are mini-games. I'm sure they'll come out with more space stuff later on though.

Which has the most end game DPS? I too am struggling with the decision of PT or Merc. I already have enough healer toons, but maybe Damage Merc is better DPS than any PT? Thoughts?

Call me crazy, but I'm going to try all 3. 2012 should be a good year for MMORPG's in general. I think the fantasy style MMORPG has been run into the ground and it is time to kick the genre up a bit. I think we've all seen everything we can do with swords, shields, elves and wizards, no? Maybe it's just my burnout on Fantasy MMORPG's talking...am I off base?

I look forward to when (or if) we get appearance slots. I just wish my Consular would stop waving his saber around like a feather duster. (Fans of Monkey Island games will hopefully appreciate that line)

I can't seem to get any invitations for Hammer Station. I have abandoned the quests, logged out, gotten them again. Every time, it keeps giving me a popup that says "Reset" or "Decline"...or the inviter says they get a message saying I am busy. Any advice on how to fix this?

Either that or the quest window should show the groupmates, and what spot they are on. This wasn't a qq or an anger issue...just frustrating, especially when party chat was broken for some.

Just a suggestion for Group Etiquette. Make sure your entire groupmates are all on the same part of the quest before running off and moving onto the next part. Namely a quest called Friends of Old on Dromund Kass. Please note: the detonators are single player update only. You have to make sure ALL players have 3 before moving onto the next part. Not every quest has groupwide updates.

I know...it's just I felt forced to make a surname because the window kept popping up every single time.

I just hated the fact that I can't have any particular surname I want...if it's taken it's taken. There are a million Browns, Bakers, Smiths, Davises, Williams in the world, and not all are related. But yes, I made the mistake of rolling Imperial and Republic toons on the same server...and now all 8 have the same surname

Well, I was only referring to the atmosphere/environment...but yes, I see what you mean.

I think the robes come with booty pop underwear.

Yep, I did watch a lot of Bob Ross after school while growing up.
