Its things like this that shows SWtOR's weaknesses. Lightsabers/Star Wars are great, but lazy/understaffed development is not helping what should be a great game. EA, please give BW the funding/devs it needs to keep this gravy train rolling. BW, please either catch things like this or at least fix it instead of ignoring it for months. Years+...?

We are continuing to grow, slowly but surely. At peak times we have 30+ people online between Empire and Republic and we run Operations 4+ days a week and social Events as well. In regards to Operations, while we are not 'hardcore raiders' (however you choose to define that), we can always use more people looking to clear content and have fun doing it. Set Ops are Thursday-Sunday, Pub and Imp side, with pick-up groups sometimes on off nights. If you wish to apply please take a look around our Website and consider an Application: http://www.hammerfistclan.com/forum/f68/team-application-250072/

Le Bump. Some official confirmation one way or the other would be much appreciated; nothing in the patch today and silence from BW is not helping anything.

Please Welcome HFC SWtOR's Newest Officer: Serenity It is with great pleasure I announce the newest member to join the Officer Ranks of HFC Team: SWtOR, Serenity. Asking Serenity to become an Officer was a 'no-brainer' for us as she has all the qualities we were looking for in an Officer (See http://www.hammerfistclan.com/forum/f178/you-made-who-officer-572026/ -With special attention to #3!!!).\ Serenity choosing to accept this 'honor' was probably a 'no-sanity' . Perhaps more importantly then what the other Officers though we needed was the response we received from our membership; every person who responded to our request for nominations listed Serenity. So now I can officially say you have no one to blame but yourselves . With the addition of Serenity we now have an equal balance of male and female Officers again and another Officer who is active both on the Forums and in game. She organized Events long before becoming an Officer and, while active on both sides, she is a major factor for why our Republic Faction has quickly grown to rival our more established Imperial Faction. There will always be ups and downs in life and Guilds, but I think we are stronger then we have ever been. It is my heartfelt opinion that between the groundwork done by previous Officers (thank-you Haldri and Xay) and the passion of our newest Officers (go Menana and Serenity) HFC is in a fabulous position to continue to grow and thrive in SWtOR for many years to come! Go HFC and again welcome Serenity.

HFC UPDATE HFC is increasing its weekly Events, including Ops on both the Republic and Empire side as well as Social Activities on our Forums and in game. We currently have 2-3 separate Ops groups running per week for both casual and semi-hardcore Raiders. The Social events have always been organized by Officers, but we have a new program in place to encourage Member driven content for the Guild that seems to be working great (and has been netting some Shinies for participants and organizers alike!). Our Empire branch has always been thriving here on the Shadowlands, but with ongoing recruitment the Republic side has been closing the gap. The fact that more and Guildies participate in both Factions is the icing on the cake. If you are 18+ and have a good attitude then consider checking us out.

Given the progression of the other reputation missions in SWtOR, and the fact you get a blue level reputation token for a normal bounty it seems wrong to not get a purple for the Kingpin quest. Is this working as intended? I don't want to turn in any more tokens for the Kingpin missions if it is a bug. Does anyone have a link where BW said this was an intended change from the PTS? Unless I am missing something there is currently no way to get a purple level reputation token?

In response to our continued growth we have added another Officer to our leadership ranks: Menana. I would like to publicly welcome Menana as an Officer. She is a longtime and active guildie who stepped up to organize Events for our Republic faction even prior to becomming an Officer. Her dedication has now properly been rewarded (with more work and less pay! ). Three cheers for Menana!!! [Now everyone get back to work]

/Bump I want to be able to dye my Rotworm gear. Does it not cry out for Team Colors?!?

Its kind of exciting to have an active Pub side now and be running Ops over there as well an Imp side. With 20-30 members on at peak times Imp side and 10-15 Pub side there are a lot of options for new recruits. I am really proud of HFC staying strong since launch, and providing a home to so many players, new and old. Now if only we could get people to wear pants...

First of all lets not give belly butter a bad rap. Second of all, just cause we are a guild for mature casual players does not mean we do not know how to have a good time! Also, we have a lot of skilled players who like to play hard when we play. I personally enjoy HM Ops with the Guild.

I am impressed with the number of great recruits this Thread is bringing into the Guild. Hmmmm. Now that I think about it... are you rigging things GreyLady?!? /watching you

Well, at least they are not offering any interim help or compensation. If they don't want me to support their game I wish BW/EA would have the decency to come out and say so. Sometimes between their decisions and 'customer service' I cannot help but feel like I am being trolled...

Happy so many people are choosing to check us out. We have gotten some really great new members from this thread. /woo-hoo.

The HFC Imp and Pub sides are consolidating nicely and growing slowly but surely. Ops and other events are being run and the overall 'vibe' is getting back to solid HFC standards after a summer of experimetation (I was talking other games and vacation of course). With new updates comming more frequently and FTP on the horizin its a great time to pop back in and force choke a friend!

Bioware please read this thread. So many ways to fix this without the player (payor) being anoyed. Good game would be great with some simple fixes...
