I would say you need to upgrade your graphics card.

Nice! Very nice!

I have a lvl 27 Jedi Knight who is sitting on 80k right now. I have spent well over an additional 80k on extra items, and I do not have the Slicing skill.

It's the Internet, so everything posted is true.

Just because you did not have the foresight to purchase the game when your buddies did does not make it BioWare's fault. Grow-up and take responsibility for your actions and learn to face the consequences of them.

I can't remember but does SWTOR allow for in-game macros?

It's only day one. Go read a book, and shut up.

Your sire are an idiot, and I hope they monitor your account, and at the time you reach lvl 50, get a few descent gear, and sit all nice and comfy they delete all your characters. I would definitely support them, and when you start to complain simply say, "We are sorry, but we don't have any record of your characters." Edit: By the way, YOU ARE NOT PAYING FOR THE EARLY ACCESS!!!

Yes, I am concerned. I'm concerned that this whole event is showing the world how many morons/idiots there are in this world. I think Red Foreman on That's 70 Show says it best. "Dumb_ss!"
