Experiencing more and more of their genius changes to the game has made me angrier & angrier. When I get angry playing a game, it's no longer fun. It's like.... an effective way to kill my incentive to play heroics or dailies at all. As a pleb casual those are the few game content I play and have been repeating ad nauseum. And I can still stomach that. But now this? This will probably get deleted because how dare I express my frustration but eh, my sub ends in a few days along with my desire to play.

Same, it's kinda unplayable now. Most of the utilities choices also suck. I know it's been one of the worst specs but this update just makes it unplayable.

They're very quick to jump to next year ""10th Anniversary"" when this year's only just beginning lol. Gives me major ""well not much is happening this year"" vibe. Unsurprised if this is true, but if I'm being optimistic they probably have some stuff planned but can't talk about it yet.

Korriban FP MM. "Tank" wear DPS gear, says he's a PvP tank. Healer facepalmed. My 274 undergeared vigil DPS ended up tanking the 1st boss bc he was knocked into the electric cage. The poor healer did an amazing job healing my squishy hide... we took down the boss by a near wipe. Healer gets upset bc of the "tank"s ignorance, refuses to carry "fake tank" and quits. We head to DPS check droid boss without a healer. Still ignorant, "tank" jumps and splat goes his companion. Then blames me for being undergeared when he goes splat himself in less than 10secs. I've done MMFPs with toons rated under 280 just fine if there's a proper healer / tank. He just blames everyone else but him. I hope I don't meet his alt in other FP pops...

Will both Iokath and Dantooine turret missions be fixed by the next Pirate Incursion? Seems like it's too much to hope at this point~

I'm curious. What if this game reverts back to sub-only model and see the population numbers after that. I believe everyone can voice their opinion and feedback whether they are sub or not. The people you see doing quests and in FPs, some of them are non-subs y'know? What happens when they are no longer able to play because it's sub-only? Heh.

Was on my other account. Created a toon with the token yesterday, but it's bugged because the toon is LVL 1. Logged out, saw that the token was not consumed, so I deleted the LVL 1 character. When I logged out, I'm still seeing the token. But today the token is missing. Please fix.

This bug is still here. I've lost all the keys I've obtained when I log out. Fix. This.

Bump. He became immune to dmg at 60% health, we cannot progress or finish the fight making the FP impossible to complete. Please fix this.

16M TFB SM. TL;DR, I met one too many tanks who doesn't know how to the taunt mechanics work for the last boss. More than twice. So anyways. "Geared" SPECIAL!Tank kept saying "I have no service", didn't get up from the battle rez in the last boss and wiped us. This Shadow DPS kept on explaining how the mechs work, but seems like none of the tank listened to him. 3rd wipe. I told my friend to respec to tank to replace the SPECIAL!Tank. Still saying "I have no service", but goes on to DPS with smooth animation and he's obviously lying about "no service" aka lagging. Ugh. At that time it was already late and I'm getting really annoyed by this SPECIAL!Tank. So we let him DPS, my friend tanks. Unfortunately the off-tank also doesn't know what to do. Even after explanations. And then I wondered where are all of my fellow DPS who are supposed to DPS the left tentacle. Right. The SPECIAL!Tank DID NOT DPS THE TENTACLE. HE JUST KEPT DPS'ING THE BOSS. Even when me and the other DPS downed the left tentacle, he DID NOT get the orbs. He just kept DPS'ing the boss. While him expecting people being fooled that he is "lagging". Sigh. SIGH. Leader himself is not really skilled in leadership. We had to arrange the ops frame for him, and when people left because they were already too annoyed (magically I'm still in the raid even though I'm raging), he didn't even bother going out of the instance to recruit more people after he said he is "staying". I was THIS close to crying. Me and my two friends finally quit the raid cause it was really late. It was a waste of time. But PUG, is where you meet all kinds of people. Not necessarily good ones.

/thread this thread is soooo kool, much kool story. thx.

Lowbie Colicoid FP. As Sorc healer. "Unique" Jugg tank. Takes F.O.R.E.V.E.R. to pull. I had to initiate the pull by CC'ing mobs, if not, he'll NEVER pull. Burns SABER WARD out of combat. On the arena beasts prior to last boss--waited for like 5 mins for him to pull, then he burns ENURE / ENDURE PAIN + SABER WARD at FULL HEALTH. My eyes. Please help me. It was too early in the morning for me to give him tanking lessons. I was just glad to finish the FP.

I know some people 1-man 55HMFP, but here's another case of us 3-manning the FP when the tank bailed on us. Mando Raiders. Prior to first boss with two dogs, tank AFK'ed on phone. Then after 10 minutes waiting, he had to bail for work. SMH. I cycled between my Jaesa and Quinn as they're the only geared comps I have. So we continued the FP. I tanked it with my Marauder, wiped at 1st try but got it at 2nd try. Boss down. Proceeded to second boss, I was having high doubt about it since we are tankless, but I managed to mara tank it and we got the 4 classes boss down. Proceeded to last boss, pulled Quinn out, and I was surprised I managed to tank it through the end. At the last pair of turrets, a tank finally joined the group LOL. We killed the last boss as the tank was still loading but yeah, too bad for the tank. Maybe I should do more mara tanking in the future.

This guy is exceptional. HE IS FREAKING SPECIAL. Behold. HM CZ Labs. This healer was asking for a tank for 55HMFP, why not, since I only need one more FP to finish weekly. I got in, everyone was under 30k health, but it will be a breeze if anyone knows the FP and what they're doing. The Sage healer and SPECIAL!Sentinel are from the same guild. Pulled trash. Everything was fine until I noticed both the healer and sentinel rotation. Healer burns Force Potency and Mend out of fight. OK. Sentinel, at full focus bar, spams 1, master strike, spam 1. Wiped two times at 1st droid boss. I taught the healer Sage healing rotation and Combat DPS rotation for the SPECIAL!Sentinel. We got the boss down after that. Trash before Security Chief boss. Slinger uses Flyby, healer uses Force Wave knocking all mobs out of the AOE. Slinger pointed that out. Then this SPECIAL!Sentinel whines about how there are so many f'ing whiners on pubside and impside is much nicer. Look who's whining. I explained the Security Chief fight, we still wiped due to DPS and healer having a hard time avoiding potential-one-shot rocket. Slinger points out that the SPECIAL!Sentinel should get the adds. Second pull. I noticed the Sentinel isn't DPS-ing at all, but walking around near the healer during the fight. I asked him to DPS, and the F'INGSPECIAL!Sentinel said that he's "waiting for his f'ing adds" and I was like..... HOLY--- I've had enough of this whiny, bad, PMS induced, or maybe 12 yrs old Sentinel so I /stuck, /ignore, and /leave. Wow. To think that the many bads I've carried acted even better than this Sentinel, is amazing.

Story #1 16m HM DP. This healer which is the Leader seems confident of downing it with a PUG. That. is. rare. Saw his achievements of getting to Raptus in 16m HM DP. Probably got carried. But anyways. The recruitment says no achievement or parse needed. Woah. We're down to just missing two tanks, got one, and this particular one says she haven't tanked DP HM but still got in anyways. 'TIS GUNNA BE GUD. Bestia. Me and my guildie friend went in as Sentinels and we did our job. The guardian tank however, kept losing agro and derping the mechanics. Took a few tries until we finally got it. Tyrans. The raid was converted to 8man due to the amount of wipes. This particular Guardian tank kept directing the Thundering Blast to the healers lmao. Add to that we are almost all melee DPS, but at least me and my friend got it right in terms of inferno placings. After 10+ wipes, they finally called it. Heh. Story #2 Athiss HM. Me as Sentinel. So we got down the elevator that you can slice. Then the tank suddenly "brb raid" and left the group. What an effin troll. We re-qued, but proceeded with my decently geared Scourge. Trash weren't a problem, the first boss a breeze, the big dog we had to kite him to the pool and done. Opened the doors with archie, and the last boss, luckily the flames never chased Scourge and we got it down. Still no tank, FP was finished. Had the flames was on Scourge I would have put him in Passive and kite him away from the flames. It was good. After we finished the FP, my healer friend saw the troll tank on Who list and he wasn't even raiding. Scrub.

Short story. 16m TC HM, not exactly GF but weird-ish. The group fills with 16man. The phase was set, people zoning in, and then the ops leader said "brb 5-7mins". Ok, no big deal. People are still zoning in and setting up ISOs anyways. Lead : I'm gonna finish my lunch quick DPS #1 : Why don't you eat lunch after the fight? DPS #2 : lol ikr. Lead : It's gonna be quick, please set up ISO while I eat lunch. DPS #3 : SMH. DPS #1 : Fo' real? So we waited for this leader while setting up ISO. After 10 minutes people start to get annoyed and leave. I left too when it was down to 6man lol. Story #2. Also TC HM 16man. Almost everyone zoned in, set the ISOs, then the leader explained the loot rules. There's one random Sentinel who is a little bit undergeared for this fight, so leader said to prioritize gear loot for the Sentinel. This does not sit well with this guy from this annoying guild, he said "lame" then left. No surprise there considering the reputation of his guild. We started fight after getting some replacements. So my sent jumped, and as the fight goes on, I noticed this undergear'd Watchman Sentinel rotation. Which makes my eyes hurt. Strike > Strike > Strike > Slash > Slash > Strike > Cauterize > Strike > Slash > Slash Oh my. I can't. I can't. We downed the boss and wow, that Sentinel just got carried.

*gaaaasp* they're the GOLD SPAMMERZ!!

Bads & The Double XP Week. Story #124771 Red Reaper lowbie, went in as healer. The bad is a Jugg "Tank" who doesn't seem to know instructions. I zoned in, saw the tank without ANY form, and said "hi <atrociousbadjuggnamehere>, can you put on Soresu Form?" No reply. Sorc DPS zoned in and he pulled. The second group of mobs, all strong rank, he pulled and it took three wipes as EVERYONE EXCEPT the tank facetanked the strong group. No taunts, no guards, part DPS part tank gear, no forms. So the Mara DPS "Can you put on Soresu Form?" Still no freaking reply. We continued to pull everything and it was challenging to heal as both the DPS and me are facetanking and not the 'tarded Jugg. At the holocron sections, 2nd set of mobs we pulled. Another 3 strong came out and blasted me to oblivion before I could even LoS them. Still no taunts. Wipe count : 12. I was amazed to even stay in that group for long with a 'tarded Jugg who doesn't listen to instructions. I couldn't take that anymore so I /ignore and /leave as usual. The joys of Double XP week and the bads it attracts.

Found a troll. I went in with my Jugg tank and my friend Merc heals for Colicoid lowbie. This marauder kept on RE-ing any chance he got. I don't mind that much, but here's where it gets annoying. After the cannon thingy, there's that 4 droids. I told simple instructions to CC any they can and interrupt simulation mode. TrollMarauder refused to do any of them. At first I thought it's a bad. I'm getting really really sick at bads cause they never stop coming lately, but when my friend inspected his achievements, he did some HM DP/DF and my friend informed me that he's likely trolling us. He pulls ahead of me, refused to CC, spams 1, and obvious troll is obvious. So I told my friend to stop healing him and I just sit there watching him get stomped by those droids =) We waited for him to come back to see if he pulls ahead again, and oh there he went and died again. So I /leave group, and /ignore. I kinda suspected that his achievements are probably him getting carried thru those HM DP/DF, but we're leaning more towards trolling. And he failed.

Hooo boy.... where do I even begin with this one. This is gonna be a little TL;DR. So I was talking to my bruh then got an FP pop, "Flashpoint in Progress" so okay, HM Czerka Labs. Zoned in as Scrapper Scoundrel and they were at the first Droid Boss fight. Dropped down and saw three people in the same guild. Guadian Tank and Scoundrel healer in pink/purple dye baby! So I thought, ah, former DPS must be DC'ed. Or kicked. I get "please get the adds" from the healer and it made me lean towards "kicked". So we start the fight, water becomes electric, adds pop up, and I noticed I was tanking the boss. I agrodump'd, and before I even got to the last adds, I died. Because I was tanking both adds and boss. GEARED40kHP!Healer died shortly due to inability to outheal. We gave it another try, and I said "please don't let me tank" aka taunt the damn boss. Wiped again. Healer died first. Third try, I noticed that neither I or the other Sent DPS have Slow Release Medpacks on us, and heals are so very scarce. I think her rotation was SRMP > Diagnostic Scan > Upper Hand > Emergency Medpack > UW Medicine > Emergency Medpack. And guess what. The whole rotation is only for the tank. We only receive heals when she uses Kolto Cloud. This is very, very rich. I was screaming "HELPME!" to my bruh. So the former DPS ragequit. I was typing on how to properly Scoundrel Heal, was quite the wall of text, but before I finished they pulled the trash mob set. Screw it then. Sent DPS accidentally pulled the other set of trash mobs and we barely go through due to the Sent DPS being half-decent in his job. The tank let the Healer facetank the mobs cause tunnel vision and regretfully the healer died. lol. We get to Chief Zokar aka potential-one-shot-undergear-people-rocket-guy. So I thought to myself, this is gonna be EVEN richer. Surprisingly the fight went well with me tanking half the time ofc. Fortunately the only one targeted by the rocket is me so I saved the healer's rear cause I've gotten used to evading the red circle of doom. Boss went down quick. At this moment I just want to finish the FP quick and get outta there... The last boss also went smoothly with me tanking half the time again. I think the tank is so used doing the SM version. I could safely nominate this as one of the epitome of "New Group Finder Changes Attracting Bads" list. I'm so tired of all the bads I have to carry in GF each time I PUG. I don't mind newbies, but bads are another story.

yawn.. this again? threads about F2P restrictions never ends well. I say F2P is already good with the restrictions and there is no need to further reduce the restriction IMO. I only sneak in my bro's account to post on forums - fellow f2p who is constantly being bashed

I need dis in my life /colombia dance pls.

I feel the recent changes to Group Finder attracted too many bads lately. I've been having a streak of bad PUGs all over the place. The most common would be (GEARED!) ignorants who didn't bother stating that they have never done the FP and wiping us out. I know I should have asked if they have done the FP, but come on, doesn't hurt to state you've never done the FP and most of the time people are going to assume you know the FP. Added with the persistent and annoying Cademimu shackle bug (shackle too often, 4 ppl at once), everything is just wonderful. A tank told us this cool strategy to bypass that stupid bug by stacking the DPS and tank together while the healer is on the back. When we get pushed back the healer would overlap with us and free the shackle. Don't work perfectly sometimes, but still better than nothing. The sad thing is, bads cannot follow strategies so it's pointless. But anyways sticking to the topic... 1. Cademimu HM. "Healer" merc. I was on Jug tank, barely geared, and went thru first set of trashes smoothly until I noticed why am I not receiving heals. Or even kolto shell and that green stuff /spamone. Then I noticed the merc is in middle tree cell, asked him y u no heals, then he said he's DPS spec. Well great. We got thru the FP nonetheless with a few deaths on me and repair bills which I suffered. 3 minutes later the server went down for maint. 2. KDY. Well classic newbie. I figured that doing KDY will have some fresh newbies to the game encounters, and two of them I met so far. This sentinel uses one lightsaber and a green vibroblade on his offhand. LOL. A cunning green chestpiece too. I asked where is the bag he got when he became sentinel, he said he sold it thinking it was trash. XD But anyways before I could tutor him further in game basics, he DC'ed. Too bad. My faith in GF is fading, but still I cling on~

I wish my Scarebear title would be either Scared Bear or Care Bear. Don't you think this should go to that weird ppl thread in FP/Ops/Heroic forum?

I might show up on Imp side. I only need 30 more Republic Guards to kill.
