Type 4 is by no means fat. Still, type 2 is anorexic? Not even close. Type 2 is more of an athlete's build. Type 1 definitely is anorexic though.

Any game that flushed my hundreds of hours of work on a fort down the tube because of the actions of some gamers who happened to be better than me is a game I wouldn't be playing much longer. I'm pretty positive I'm not alone in this.

I'll preface this by stating that I am a raider and that I was a raider before "casuals" started the nerf cycle in WoW. That being said, WoW was able to get away with making content hard enough that a good portion of the playerbase wouldn't get to see it because they basically had no competition from other games. There was EQ, but their poor implementation of the launch of EQ2 destroyed their market share for a good long time. These days, there are so many mmos out there that if a game attempts to make content as hard as those who decry casuals would like it to be, they would see a majority of their playerbase jump ship, because a majority of the playerbase are casual players. It's not feasible anymore. Either adapt to the times and stop whining, or go find another genre to be elite at.

Anybody know of a site like this for the Republic? It seems every guide site I find is Empire only.

I would just like to humbly request that Bioware make MORE female gear with bare midriffs.

I play both male and female characters. One big thing I've noticed is when playing a female character I tend to get treated nicer, by both men and women. Maybe the reason people who play female characters aren't jerks is because they haven't been made quite as cynical by people being jerks to them.

I'm in the no cross-server LFG camp, but I really don't see why a compromise can't be made between the two camps and implement a same-server LFG tool. Not true. My trooper is a tank, and once I hit Taris I found it pretty much impossible to find Heroic groups.

Between Force Stun, Force Lift, and Low Slash, I can keep a mob out of a fight while my teammates take care of other mobs or until the tank can pick it up off the healer I pulled it from. Very useful when the fight has already started and you get an add.

This is why I like playing a shadow. When someone tries that with me, I force cloak, mob aggroes on them, and I take the chest/node while they fight the mob. Turnabout is fair play!

Has anyone got a screenshot of the upper robe that drops in Maelstrom Prison? I got the lower robe which looks really cool and I'm trying to find out if it's worth farming for the upper robe. That would be the Shadow Strider's Robe. I keep hearing that it was removed, which seems lame as the lower robe still exists and is very "shadowy."

My sarcasm detector just went off the charts!

Metacritic always has low scores. Look at the other sites like Gamespot and IGN and such for their user scores and you'll see them much higher. It's too easy to create dummy accounts and troll vote down games on Metacritic.

So, let me get this straight. You, and 27 people from your guild, cancelled your subscriptions based on something that MIGHT happen? Not only that, but based on something that ebbs and flows in every single MMO? Methinks you were just looking for a reason to go already.

Learned from gaming? I learned a lot, and I do mean A LOT, about history from playing the various Civilization games over the years. I learned so much I think Civ IV would be a valuable addition to a middle school history curriculum. Civ V sucked though, don't do that one.

Awww, he fixed the thread title.

Oh dear, you almost got me in trouble at work I lol'ed at this thread title so hard.

NOW it is, but up until about Cata it was usually between 1 and 3 when it finished, longer on patch days.

What I want to know is, was he making lightsaber noises as he did all this?

The deflected tazer is the best part!

Just imagine how players in Hawaii feel. It hits right at their primetime!

[quote name='Philophobic']Maintenance starting at 10 AM isn't very early in the morning for me, mate. They royally screw me and many others, just like you said.[/QUOTE] His point is that Bioware is doing maintenance very early in the morning for them. This means they are coming in after hours, inconveniencing themselves, in order to ensure that maintenance affects the least amount of people possible. It sucks that you're one of those least amount, but the big picture is that Bioware is doing the right thing.

I wish this was Facebook so I could like your post.

Informing you that daytime maintenance is pretty normal is pretty constructive. Could I have been nicer about it? Sure. However, I didn't attempt to discount your opinion as you did mine. My point remains valid. And to the person who posted above his that I can't be bothered to copypasta quote, I was referring to WoW maintenance times in the US being similar to SWtOR maintenance times in Europe. It has nothing to do with other GMT countries.

But then we can't complain on the forums about it because our computer is inside! Oh wait! Laptops!

It was from 8am until at least 2pm most weeks. My point is still valid. How about being constructive, hmm?
