Why is it every time there is an update I have to repair my entire game? After failing to download the update today the launcher has once again told me to repair. 8 hours guys and still going!! Why? Why does this happen every damn time? What's the deal?

This is also a wish of mine, though I'm sure it will never happen. I've always been a solo player, unless I really REALLY get to know people in a guild (I'm guildless now tho). Yonks ago when I played my first MMO, Guild Wars (1), the Hero/Henchmen option was a life saver for me. I loved that I could still participate in all content, even on my own. In SWTOR I would love to play certain ops/heroics/fps but because I'm 99% on my own i know I never will unless they bring in a story/solo mode, or a multiple companion option. Don't get me wrong, I've played some ops/most fps in a group (pub or guild) but because I'm super casual player now sometimes going weeks or months between logging in, I've resigned myself to most of that particular content out of my reach. It sucks, but oh well. I'll still play and hope and cross my fingers, but if it never happens, so be it.

Yes and yes! Last night I played to my hearts content and this morning i can barely walk 10 steps before I get the red X. Unplayable! It's my day off too :/

I've had many, but this one sticks out to me right now. About a year and a half ago I was fortunate enough to join my (then) guild in my first Karagga's Palace op run. I was super excited! We were going swimmingly along, and I was learning a ton. When we came to the puzzle boss I learned how to do the panels and on our second try, we got him down. We were all having a great time. There were laughs and japes all round. Anyway, we head through the door and our leader says something like, 'don't go too far. Some enemies spawn, (murder droids or something) and if you're not ready for it we'll wipe.' So we all get together and the enemy spawns, and for whatever reason we wipe. We have a good laugh and respawn. Again, our leader says 'don't run ahead...' but one of our dpser's doesn't listen and he runs down the hall triggering the spawn while only half our team are revived, and the others aren't even healed to full yet. Needless to say, we wipe again. Now, there are still a few giggles, lots of sorry's from our dpser, and our leader in a much more serious tone reiterates not to run ahead. All through this, we're giving the dps guy a hard time (in jest mind you), and I say something like "Dude.... you got a growling...hahahaha". Just being a ******** really. Well... that comes back to bite me on the butt. We all rez for the 3rd time and for SOME reason I can not explain to this day, I thought the area where the mob spawns was further down the hallway, so I get up...still laughing at my guildy for getting us all killed... and run right into the no-no area. All I remember is my leader yelling..."DON'T!!" before we are for the forth time inundated by naughty baddies and get us all wiped for the forth time. I felt like such an idiot, and my punishment was paying half my leaders repair bill

This is me too. By nature, I'm a compassionate person and don't like seeing people in pain, yet I believe in love and all that other mushy stuff. So, I'd make a terrible Jedi and wouldn't last long as a Sith. Also, I'm not interested in religion, and that's how I see the Force and the Jedi way. If I wasn't force sensitive, I'd probably be just like I am now. But would like to think I'd end up like my smuggler. Surrounded by friends who I trust, just traversing the galaxy and seeing all I could see.

Holy resurrection Batman! I agree, and have seen it done many times. Tank/Heals make one mistake, and it's the apocalypse. I'm on JC too, and I'm always open and welcoming to anyone who wants to learn how to tank or heal. I give kudos to them, because I already know for darn sure I couldn't do it at all! I have no qualms at all about how long a fp takes or how many times we wipe. I took a group of newbies from my pub guild ages ago who had never done any flashpoints before (me as a dps and them in their respective roles) through Hammer station up to Taral, just so they try things out, see the stories etc. Each one took a little longer then usual, but we all had a grand old time. I guess I'm just an old codger when it comes to patience. I like doing flashpoints, but I never have people to do them with now (bar gf), that we can just chill out and actually have fun doing it, and not have the 'in-out' mentality. Aside from Colicoid and red reaper.... 2 years and for some reason I've never done these 2 fps???

Why would they hate my character?

This needs to happen. The day it does, I will reroll any imp toon as a male, just so I can romance him <3

Last night (for me, about 6-7pm) I hopped on my Merc to finish my weekly tacts (5/5) and weekly HMs (3/3) as well as the daily 50hm before weekly reset. That's 9 flashpoints. It's around 2am or so in the states at that time. When I logged on there were 35 people on the fleet. I play on JC btw. I managed to do all 9 of them, as well as my dailies on Makeb/CZ plus weekly and the staged weekly before midnight. That's 6 hours, give or take, in the queue, in the US downtime on a server that has few aussie players. I think that's pretty good for a dps. I don't know, I guess I realized when I chose to make a dps character, I was prepared for long wait times. I'm in a guild, but no one ever wants to do fps when I do, at least the 5-7 people who are on at my time. so I am dependent on the gf. I'm not complaining, I knew what I was getting into when I made my merc, so while I queue, I have to keep myself occupied with other tasks.

Just go for it dude. I've been in plenty of flashpoints with new tanks and they've done very well. As long as you're willing to listen to advice, everything should be smooth sailing. I love grouping with people in flashpoints, especially tanks and healers, who haven't done it before, because the more people that do it and have a good experience with it, means more tanks and healers for dpsers like me to party with. Needless to say you will come across that utter moron who will want to do nothing but bring you down, but then you'll come across people like me who will help you when they can (I've never tanked, but will try my best), giggle if we wipe, and have a healthy attitude all round for people learning the ropes.

Because of the times I play, I always seem to miss everyone and anyone on the fleet who can craft for me. So I'm posting here in hopes that someone can or knows someone else that can craft mods. Mainly, Advanced Agile Mod 34. I have mats, so would like to trade. Please get in contact with me.. I'm begging ya!

Ouch. I didn't realise having an ì made people hate me

In tacts, I don't expect anything from anyone. If you come in and you're a healer, I'm not going to expect heals from you and nothing else. If you're dpsing... good! If you throw out a heal every now and then, I thank you very much I don't expect tanks to tank if they don't want to. Let them dps, I don't care. All I ask is that between fights, when your health is getting low... for the love of god heal yourself! Gain your force back, lower your heat! All of the mobs in these tacts are easy to handle, if you no your cds and defensive abilities and use them. In a group of 4 dps'ers.. you have no choice but to. In flashpoints though, it's a whole other story. Respect the roles and play yours. As a dps, yes I might run ahead. But I never.. never... pull first. I'll sit/stand until the tank makes his move and has threat, before I attack. I haven't been slammed yet by tanks, so I must be doing something right.

Lol. This takes too much effort on my part. I just wanted to play my game man, haha! It's funny though because I sometimes see posts on gen chat much like I did last night, "Aussie Girl looking to join awesome guild..." and 2 things cross my mind. 1) Are you really a girl? I hope not beacuse.... 2) Get ready for an influx of messages you're not going to like. Or hey, maybe you do. I don't get why you need to announce your gender in this way, or any way to be honest. If it comes up, it comes up. Why draw attention to it? By doing so you open yourself up to the many wierdos that play this game. That was why I left Harbinger and went to JC. But I can't quit you Harby... Imma comin back.

Heh, I giggled because I finally started playing Kotor 1 and I actually recognize the name Ajunta Pall. Lol... I'm so naf
