The bonus series starts when you finish the main story of Nar Shaddaa, along with your class quests located there *and* you are of appropriate level (not sure what level is required yet). According to OP he is 29 and ran out of quests on Alderaan. I would suggest the following: - gather the group for daily instances: mandalorian raiders, cademimu, which ever is of green or yellow difficulty gonna be fine for your experience - plus you will get some gear drops - start queueing for warzones if you find pvp fun, along with completing the daily pvp quest - start completing the space missions (at some points investment into ship gear will be necessary) In my experience Alderaan isn't designed well from questing side. I found the story incredibly good but the quests alone, their objectives and amount of travel needed was just a bit too much of a hassle. I cant say I had troubles with level there. Good luck OP and please consider completing flashpoints, warzones, space missions - whichever suits you - to get some additional exp.

Isn't it natural just to assume they are working on all reported bugs? I don't really see any benefits in CM posting in every thread mentioning bugs/problems/suggestions.

OP sounds like he was starting in Republic's Senate Election. Give BW a break, not every topic will be answered by CM, probably not even 10% of them. Additionally with game this young you honestly cant expect for CMs to come and answer questions that might be just as well asked on their meetings, they simply dont have an answer yet. Relax Senator, things will balance out soon.

I fully agree, worst case scenario is when you are doing a flashpoint and randomly get disconnected, if you play on server and land in the queue after that you basically finish with half way done flashpoint and no group. We need queue immunity.
