I would say this is a screen resolution / frequency problem. However, the fact that you are playing other newer games makes my suggestion sound strange but worth checking perhaps....

I am a sub and have been for about one year. I love SWTOR. I find the Cartel Market (CM) to be confusing. The only item I have bought so far is a holgraphic Rancor for 96CC. I have about 4 250 CC built up from the 500CC I get per month as a sub and also from various in-game rewards. I would like to buy more items from the CM but I am wary as it seems most items are geared to the F2P people. This does not help you, it just gives you my opinion.

Hey this is a very good post from OP. Very well written and certainly reflects my feelings about this FP which I have only run in part just once. (log story about why only in part) Anyway, during the FP, I made comment that while I love SWTOR, I do not like this Colcoid FP. One guy pointed out that had I joined the FP from Carrick Station, and gotten the back-story, instead of coming through GROUP FINDER, I might like it better.

I think so. I have gotten 3 of these XP boosts lately. Two are for one hour and one is for 3 hours. I have only used one of the 1 hour xp boosts so far and I guess it worked. At the time I was on Alderaan but I did not do any calculation to confirm it increased by a given percentage or not.

Yeah this is VERY annoying every time I want to log - in. However, I still love SWTOR but this does annoy me.

I am hoping they will fast forward to the battles with the YuuZhan Vong. This way we get Han Solo, Luke and Leia, able to play their aged selves plus their kids as teenagers.

well guys if you see my character name "Dianogas" in game, just holler if you want to group i bought SWTOR for group play, otherwise I would just play FPS or the like or FF13 on my PS3
