The only way my 'remarks' would be getting under your skin is if you were feeling guilty. And no I'm not against using indifference instead of logic. Since it's already been done many times over in this thread.

Once again you only read what you want to read. Take the time to actually read and understand before replying. Hiding behind online anonymity is the trademark of someone who needs that meter to feel good about themself (quite the opposite of what you may think.) Accepting responsibility is not about performance in a video game, it's about your actions and how you treat others. But hey it must be nice if the only thing you have to worry in life is how well the other people in your group are performing. I do envy that.

Anyone else get the feeling that the few elitests in this forum aren't going to play this game longer then 2-3 months anyway? They'll complain till they get what they want, decide they don't like it afterall. Reroll back to WoW when the next patch comes out. I say we skip all that rhetoric and just cancel your subs now. In all seriousness if the only reason you want it is for displays of grandeur, then you need to stop hiding behind online anonymity and accept responsibility. You can keep listing reasons as to why it'd be useful, but it's practicality doesn't outweigh the hostility. This reason alone is enough to keep it out of the game. It is something that shouldn't be ruled out if the player base ever matures though.

Right well congratulations on your WoL records I'm sure it's a big deal. But since you can only come up with 'I'm right, you're wrong' arguments I'm going to ascertain that you are out of legitimate points to support the idea that a dps meters can be beneficial. I'm sure that in the end they will end up adding this feature despite the fact that it'll be largely misused by the hubristic player base. Obviously you can't see the course of your actions effecting other people. I hope that the big numbers give you some semblance of exhiliration in your life, and that these big words haven't been too hard to comprehend.

You sure do expect A LOT from a launch MMO. And the fact that you think MOST people hate pvp is a gross generalization that is just simply NOT true. I do like your idea of freeform space combat however things like that take A LONG time to develop. So like other posters have mentioned if your only intent was to get through the game as fast as possible then you are robbing yourself of the real work bioware has been putting into it the past several years.

No your point does not stand, you think that only the people who do poor DPS are the ones who wouldn't want to see a meter implemented. I can tell you right now that there are going to be people who do more dps then you (believe it or not) that don't want to see this mod come to fruition. Yes a dps meter can be a learning tool, yes it will make it obvious if someone in the raid is not trying. However, your posts make it seem like you only want to use this mod to alienate people you deem unworthy. Under those circumstances it stops becoming a tool and starts being calumniating. A few other posters have demonstrated that they understand what it intends to be but I can't see any good that would come of it in your possession.

Since you can't be objective enough to realize this I will point it out to you. Your attitude is EXACTLY why people in this thread are against DPS meters. Lumping us together and then acting like a superincumbent know-it-all does little to help your cause. Take a minute and actually think it through before posting anymore conceited responses.

Isn't dual spec'ing suppose to be a post launch feature?

I agree with you 100% and I can't help but feel like damage meters almost encourage that type of behaviour which is why I'm hesitant to say that it'd be a positive addition to the game.

If it wasn't for the ego-maniacs who get carried away with the damage meters I would be all in favor of them because they can be a genuinely helpful tool. But it also leads to tunnel visioning and elitism. My opinion would be to allow them but only allow officers in raids to view them or only AFTER the fight so people aren't staring at it while they should be doing other things.

Alright sounds like we have a winner, thanks for the quick reply.

While we're discussing talents, I want to go down the Lightning tree myself, did you guys get Electric induction or reserves on the bottom tier? I'm debating if 100 force power will really be that much towards the end. As oppose to reduction in force power spending.

It'd be in there best interest and ours to offer free transfers, that way people CAN'T use the excuse "my friends and my guild are here". Because then they can all transfer together as is. And you can't stop the wave of "QQ" anymore then you can stop the sun from setting or crap from rolling downhill. If you are intent on continuing to try, I wish you the best of luck.

Arenas have got to be one of the worst ideas ever concieved to integrate into an MMO experience. The system does little to reward the team and instead focuses on the individual with 'special' items so you can look more important then everyone else. And not to mention the rampant elitism that comes with having them. Thanks, but I'll pass on blizzards idea of rated pvp. Not to mention the balance issues this game would be centered on if it decided to embrace this system. If they HAD to add a rated form of pvp, I wouldn't be against rated WZ's or TDM guild vs guild. Things like arena, dps meters, and gear score do nothing but detract from the central purpose of playing an immersive video game, fun. If you are unable to function normally or feel good about yourself without flexing your e-peen then you don't need an arena system, you need professional help.

Seriously OP? Did you ever consider the fact that right now it's still technically peak hours for us and off-peak for them? Try checking the server status in the early morning, I bet you'll see the exact opposite. If you're tired of waiting in que and refuse to be patient, instead of coming here and having a fit, play on a different server.
