^ This. Consumers like options. If anything, it's the artificial limiting of options that is most likely to turn consumers off.

I've been away for quite awhile and never had a character that got past Voss. I'm wondering: are these dailies in a PvP area on PvE servers?

This post makes me think you have your scoreboard sorted in ascending order.

When did 200K damage in a WZ become heaps?

Thanks for posting, OP. Thanks to you and cmf for the great work discovering this new information on taunts.

I never said that it did. I said that I appreciate the ease of gathering a piece of information about light or dark side alignment; the same way I appreciate the ease of gathering a piece of information about what class a player is by whether they have one saber, or two sabers, or a saber-staff, or one blaster, or two blasters, or an assault rifle, etc. It is an easy way to instantly recognize a fact that may have some bearing on my interaction with them. Maybe it doesn't have any bearing on your interaction with them, but this game is not solely about the things you think are important. For example, I would imagine that people interested in RP believe that alignment is VERY important. Perhaps some Imperial player somewhere likes to only kill light side Republic players in WZs. Is their opinion less valuable than yours?

Oh, don't worry on account of me. I have no problems keeping track of things like: BTW... the correct spellings are: Soresu, and Juggernaut. Soresu should be capitalized because it is a proper noun. I particularly like how you assumed that my position on this issue means I'm not much of a thinker, and a fan-boy to boot: Finally, I appreciate the way you took my disagreeing with you so personally that you felt compelled to insult me. Look at it this way. Right now, I have to spend zero effort to gather some information that is of questionable value. If these changes happen, then I will have to spend a very tiny amount of effort to gather some information that is of questionable value. Why would I want to waste my time this way?

Going to have to disagree with you on this. Making a person more or less powerful based on cosmetic changes strikes me as a bad idea. Cosmetics are just that, they should have no impact on the mechanics of game play; they should only affect the enjoyment of those players who find that sort of thing appealing.

That is an idea that I really like. People who want customization can have it by putting in extra effort. On PvP servers, it might even spark a little extra open world back-and-forth, as people farming the opposite faction's resources have to enter enemy territory to do so.

I'd rather spend my attention on what they are doing and how I'm going to beat them.

I have to agree with you. I like being able to easily identify who is light/dark side. Sort of the way I like to be able to tell what someone's class is by they type of weapon they are carrying or wielding. The patch notes seemed unclear when compared to the announcement placed on the front page of the community site. Is it all color crystals that have had these requirements removed, or only some special (high-level) colors?

No thanks.

You seem to have a strange definition of drastic as you only propose one new ability. I do not agree that warriors need a self heal. Juggs have the best armor and some great bubble/CDs, and Maras can spec into a self healing build if they so desire. When people don't agree with you and are not having the same "issues" you are, they are not trolls. Perhaps you should ask yourself why these others are not complaining instead of calling them names.

The whiners will go start the same vicious circle in some other game?
