  1. My theory is simple. Our stories are very specific. Even though we all are doing them the end result is one smuggler, one bounty hunter...so on. Simply put our "non force users" are force sensitive. Examples. The bounty hunter learns how to resist elements on Hoth. Several instances of the Smuggler hearing/doing before someone gets the drop on them. This assumes of course that the characters are only given the information we can see in the cinematic frame we are given. Out of them all the one that strikes me as the least sensitive is the Trooper, yet they are always where they need to be even if they were going somewhere else. Almost like their life is directed , and not entirely by the people above them. Course one is going to argue , these are story tropes/contrivances. I argue back they could have done without them. They could have made it very plain we are weak, unable to fight force users whatever. Those scenes where we are outmatched by force users tend to be them being surprised at how much it took to put us down. (agent comes to mind, so does freeing the dark masters) So my conclusion is there is no "non force users" that are player characters, just some that are far more trained and powerful with that particular skill than others.
  2. According to google, it happened in June
  3. Me too , this isn't a one off problem. I have two accounts both have the issue.
  4. Twi sell themselves into slavery.. they do this to better their children's prospects. Doesn't always work but there it is. Do you choose to go out of your house and run someone over? Or do you choose to wait and make sure no one is coming before backing out? These are choices, you cannot fault a game for the option you can only point at those that take the option. You are unable to do that either as this is fictional and ment as exploratory. What would happen if I do this, oh.. I see. Carmmageddon didn't ruin me, letting vette participate in a 3 way won't ruin anyone today. and for the heck of it.
  5. to fully remove yourself i suspect you have to call customer service to manually delete you from the system. Most mmo's leave your account suspended as a normal thing. Just in case you change your mind and want your stuff/names back.
  6. Works just fine for me, make sure to apply your binds. That key is commonly called tilde even though ` is the default keypress.
  7. Haleigh leigh leia there you go, you are a derivative of Leia Thus they will never unfilter your original desired name. I feel for you, sorry.
  8. I know my group rped out of guild, we all had guilds for various reasons but as a group it never stopped us from rp. You would see folks with raider guild tags, pvp guild tags, solo guild tags.. tags didn't mean much because rp is what you do. I plan on making my tiny solo guild again, there is a larger group The longshots if I recall that is doing the in guild reason. /ooc exists blue side and I saw some calls for lfrp on either side. We should state channels and go from there maybe?
  9. Rp as it is pretend does not exclude me from being powerful because I cannot click fast enough. PvP does. It also lets me play weaker characters, the bread of the rp community, to bolster others who are strong. On a pvp server this means not only am I a target, I am a dead target. If I spend my whole time dying I have no time to rp. Direct repeated actions in game often are ooc (killing the bosses in flashpoints for example) I elect to have my faction warfare be ooc unless I choose to go ic with it (joining a warzone). I admit that the rp I have with pvpers tends to the less godmode variety. Mostly because taking a hit is the nature of how pvp works, they are not afraid to fail. This doesn't exclude being sat on for hours on end because someone decided it is more fun to ruin anything I am doing , than let me be. Yeah I could log out (no more rp then), I could get friends to counter gank (wait what about my small meeting with the criminal element to negotiate the release of ..) or I could get on my own high level and dish out returns. Bioware did make it so that you don't encounter world pvp til midgame , and have safe places to rp out of the reach of gankers, but that itself is also limiting. Not everyone who goes to Nar Shadda is killed, why must I be? Pvp requires consent for rp purposes. I choose to give it only when I wish to.
  10. Sorry bub..there is always a Moonguard goldshire. For the record MANY other rp servers had no activity at all in goldshire. On Earthen Ring goldshire is where the pvp/duelists hung out because we chased them out of Stormwind with our rp. I mean that literally. Half the regular rpers were strong pvpers and had no issues verbally fighting then taking it to actual duels. ............ Also there are brothels bub. Cantinas have half nekked twi's dancing, there is going to be some measure of rp of illicit activities. What do you think smugglers do on their off hours , knit? ...... I was happy to find out that a decent smattering of my old wow rp crowd has moved over to swtor recently. This makes me happy because all of us rp in /say and /emote. We do turn it off for pve content (progression) but our downtime (or uptime considering) is spent actively pursuing storytelling/rp. I think we need to not point fingers, each server will choose how it rps and those not happy with the current style will either move on...or fight for their segment of population.
  11. I brought some rp with me to the server in the form of a few scattered friends, and I wish folk would stop telling others when to rp. Rp is a creative process, I don't tell you to drop and give me 10 lines of poetry you don't tell me to drop and give you a deep character building rp session. Each server will find it's own personality. This is how it works. Some folk rp out the gate, some rp only at level cap, some spend all their time in crafted scenes. None if it is wrong, ALL of it encourages more.
  12. Greetings fellow Ebonites This is Wyst (as I am often known by) and I bring an annoying sidekick I refer to as Loon. We hail from Earthen Ring , and a group of folks from over there are coming here. We prefer to be in the same universe. ER was good at the political and fight type rp style, and most of us got along. (always drama llamas) That said I hope we can maintain the delightful community we have already started, I have been pleased to meet various folk in general. If we are lucky some of us will become regular posters here, since many of us frequented forums in other games. Let the games begin!
  13. Ok first.. NO ONE tells me when I must or must not rp. No one. That is not how it works. If I don't like your hat I might not rp with you.. maybe that day I am just against hats. Maybe my character hate hats too, maybe that hat is similar to the one stolen off the corpse of my dead father you FIEND... ahem This is not an argument about why folk are saying it is too early to rp, this is the old argument "I can't find any rp there isn't any rp .. SOMEONE PLEASE MAKE RP, the rp is dead run run" Listen, If you aren't making your own rp, you are the central issue to finding rp. Don't wait for someone to come talk to you..talk to them. As several have stated , even if we don't want to be there we will at the least give you a line before walking off. (or whisper why we absolutely would have never been seen here) The argument that one must rp everywhere one ever is, means many of us can never play the game. The quests have some options but enough of them would never be encountered by various characters without extraordinary circumstances. I do not feel like attaching a large mcguffin to my character (any more than I have to by the nature of this universe). If I wave and murderize some critters , just accept I probably didn't do it in character. You want to know if I did. Ask. .............. And before I let this drop entirely Folk understand that most rpers are shy folks right? I mean even on a good day a large portion of those listing as Rpers are of the quiet with a friend variety. Get a friend and rp it up.
  14. Somewhere .. sometime much later.. Coming over a hill on Ord Mantell there are several people .. with odd guilds <They> <Are> <Taking> <The Hobbits> <To Isen> <Gard> as they run past you get that fuzzy and relaxed feeling you too shall always remember december.
