In the original Beta fleets didn't exist. They were introduced for many reasons, one being that no-one really hung out in cities.

It's not love that is wrong, it's loving one more than another. Loving all equally and unconditionally is meant to be the ideal. A higher state. Without specific attachment to beings or items. The Jedi code has become misunderstood by even many Jedi.

And this is a perfect example of the corruption of the Republic. Abandoning the ideal of democracy is "short-sightedness, LS point farming, or idiocy" It's perfectly okay to accept bribes from the criminal underworld if it's for 'the greater good'? Who decides on the greater good? It's not the people it's meant to protect. A senator shouldn't get to pick and choose what's right without the knowledge of the public, without that you don't have democracy, you have the Empire (or the Republic that will become the Empite) with one leader picking and choosing what is best for the people, not the people debating and choosing. It's a slippery slope.

That's alright, your name is Midichlorian, I assure you, that gets far more people riled.

Oh and inspired from another thread.... 'Grey' alignment. Tease me with moral choices and make me realise that by actually choosing meaningful decisions for my character just leads to being Mr Gimped from gimptingdom with the stat bonus of gimpness. Creating a story that could give meaningful choices to be completely deterred by the fact that it doesn't really change any outcome and could actually hinder character stat progression. A mechanic that actually deters a player from playing the most meaningful aspect of the game. Madness.

It seems here that lore is an excuse to rationalise your hatred of Ewoks. Gee, the first three films (chronologically speaking) changed the lore as they went along. Dont get me wrong I am no Ewok lover (in any sense of that phrase before anyone starts) but I can understand the appeal for some. Some people will feel it is 'star warsy', fair play to them. They can have it. I will not have an Ewok companion. Does not work for me, I will not begrudge others though. Not everyone has read the books (I have read many though) so those people may want film like characters. Nothing wrong with the game catering for them. It's optional, not mandatory. The spectrum of people that have only seen the films is FAR larger than those that have gone further into 'lore (which has been malleable) The game should not be just for the hardcore Star Wars fans. The better the game does the happier I am. I dont want to sit on a server with just a few hardcore vets

The stupid wave Quick travel. Seriously, my deadly Sith Warrior will grin and wave like a numpty every time he takes a ship back to town. My hardened battle worn trooper will shake his hand like a prepubescent giggly schoolgirl every time he gets given a lift. It is silly on my part but GRRR Also the global friends thing. My hat is tipped to you CoH lovers. Apart from the lack lustre interior style of missions, it was beautifully designed, still cant find a character customisation to match it. Plus the friendliest game I have ever come across.

It also shows in a sense the downfall of the Jedi. For me it's the arrogance of a Jedi master asking you to snoop. Isn't that wrong? Rather than speaking and trying to understand the young ones they resort to snooping. Instead of training and helping the young embrace the philosophy and the nature of the force, reducing it to rules and regulations. This for me is just a small part in showing how the Jedi fell. The lack of true wisdom. This is what I love about the game, the darkness of it all. Playing a trooper and seeing that all the light side options go against orders given just highlights how the Republic is becoming corrupted. How the Jedi seem to have a better ideal than others, shows the corruption. As a bigger picture It is pretty beautifully done.

It does give the impression that all class stories may merge into one continued story with the only difference being 'flavour' text (ie. conversations recognising that you have done 'X' on your class story) Guess we shall see.

I'm not sure which point you are trying to support here. Yes that's how things work. If you don't have the membership you can go out and buy the pads.....

Alas it seems the virus is contained and doesn't spread. Shame.

So, I have a character with the Rakghoul virus STILL. I'm thinking it should be spread. My thought would be to give it to new players of the game. It's not about annoying people it's about making the gamre feel dynamic. If I spread the disease to new players, they won't know what's going on. They missed the event this would be new and exciting, traumatising possibly but still, away from the normal simple game. A dose of the virus could be invigorating for players that haven't played before. Beyond the general level up through story. While the story is great, it is VERY linnear. A little dose of the unknown could shake things up. A player that may havve just taken a quick trial run is suddenly googling a random in-game virus. Good idea or bad idea? If it is a good thought then what would be the best dispersal method? Otherwise I'm just gonna give it to the warzone guys stood in front of the same terminal week in week out.....

It's blocked because the filter hates Rugby

I would fully support that. I have already moved to Tomb simply because I knew the majority of the server would. I don't particularly want to be there but saw it as a necessary evil for grouping.

However there is nothing essentially wrong with your blue car with auto gears. A lot of people think that it's better to have the pink car, a lot of people drive the pink car. You still have the choice to keep the blue car, in fact as time goes on that blue car will become more and more exclusive. In months to come you may be one of the very few to be driving a blue car with auto gears. You could stick to your guns and be one of the elusive few to have that blue car.You could be exclusive. Unless of course you cave in and take the pink car, well it's more fun when everyone is driving it. Do I agree with what I just said? No. I'm just sticking by the rules of the analogy. I hate analogies.
