Shameless plug for the EH Community website (again)!

 

I host weekly RP scenes for each faction (at least until the chat bug is resolved), and encourage anyone who is interested to drop in on a scheduled scene or shoot me a PM here or on Enjin, or a whisper in-game. I'm usually on Vivek, my Shadow, but I do frequently log into my Warrior, Adish, Imperial-side. If you're not a fan of Enjin or don't care to join another website (although I would definitely ask for you to make an exception :p), you can catch all of the major announcements in the Weekly Scene Management thread.

 

And as much effort as it seems I'm putting into RP, I do love PvP and endgame PvE, and I'm all about bringing the community together. Please be on the lookout for those PvP Tournaments because I've got quite a few in mind, and I can assure you they're not quite what you expect :D

Encourage lowbie pvp to get gear before 55

 

Not sure what you mean by 'gear', Adexi.

 

I took it as more of a 'encourage lowbie PvP' in general.

 

-Helps learn your class.

-Build up comms for when hitting 55.

-Build up medpacks/adrenals for when hitting 55.

-Build up ranked comms once hitting valor 40.

 

:D

All the "exploit" stuff aside, which I could not care less about, for the record.

 

Hasn't your GM said you came to TEH for the community? And now you're trolling it?

 

That doesn't make any sense.

 

This person is not a member of our guild, he just thinks he's funny by putting it in his signature :)

Is there a date set for the September summit? Also, where can we get the TS3 details needed to participate? Thanks in advance.

 

The next Community Guild Summit Meeting is Sunday, September 7th, at 7:00 PM EST.

 

I'd rather not advertise another guild's TS info publicly, so please send me a message on Enjin or in-game to Adexi and I'll send it to you.

 

We'll also announce the meeting on Sept. 7th, starting about an hour before the meeting starts. We'll give out the information to anyone interested in attending.

Community Guild Summit Meeting Minutes

9.7.2014

(Using TeamSpeak 3 of Freedom Warriors/Zinn’s Cantina)

 

Introductions of all individuals attending

 

Discussions

PvE

 

PvP

  • Open world events later in the day to accommodate different time zones. Competing time zones make it difficult so may be good to stagger different events. More prevalent advertisements. Advertise in /enemies.
  • PVE guilds looking for Conquest points, ask for assistance with warzones, gearing, tactics, etc. PVP guilds should be receptive of requests and be helpful.
  • Help people that WANT to learn how to accomplish some of the more subtle details of being effective in PVP. Bastrus will provide help, Powertech/Vanguard tanking guide: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=738776

 

RP

  • Cantina Talk - first time RPrs, RP guilds help (in whispers) people to properly RP (conversation, appropriate responses, etc)
  • Public strongholds used for RP’ing will be opening up soon
  • House of Irasa - (Ïnka guild leader) Tevin - looking for other guilds interested in RPing with them. Looking to expand their RP contacts throughout the server.

 

GSF

  • Some good participation in GSF during GSF conquest week - First timers recommended to use Nova Dive

Can someone explain?

 

Some have been classlessly pulling the commanders outside of the base to avoid getting flagged. Now if you are flagged, I don't think anyone minds, but if you aren't, don't do it (At least until you get flagged). The commanders are meant to encourage open world PVP, avoiding it is counter intuitive.

Disgruntled post when I had misunderstood the minutes -

 


  • I understand why PVPers frown on this problem - because we want to encourage open-world pvp and we want to stop a guild's conquest of the planet by stopping their siege - which is really fun.
  • I understand the idea behind the Commanders encouraging open-world PVP, but they don't force it. There are areas where you can kill commanders and you don't have a worry in the world that you'll get PVP flagged (from what I've heard, I haven't tried it). If BioWare thinks this is an issue they can easily fix this (just make it so attacking commanders gets you PVP flagged, done). Maybe someone should make a suggestion in the suggestion box and get enough people to reply to it.
  • I ALSO understand why people try and fight commanders unflagged. I wouldn't call them classless, they're just finding loop-holes in the system --> Which I've seen hundreds of gamers do. And I didn't think it mattered this much until now.

 

My problem - Why are we trolling people for doing this???? Are we really this foolish, immature, and ignorant that we're going to support trolling? I hope we're not....

Think about this - #1: We have a Guild Summit to unite Ebon Hawk and make it a nice community. #2: We want to encourage participation in open-world PVP and Conquest in our community. #3: We're going to troll people who don't play conquest fairly and don't want to PVP.

#3 doesn't fit with the others. Do we really want to start dividing the community we're working so hard to unite? Do we really want to encourage PVP by trolling people who don't want to participate? Are we really so competitive with conquest we're going to try and hurt people if they don't submit to fair play (which isn't fair play either, so then nobody is playing fairly. It's very un-sportsman like). Because I'm pretty sure people who get trolled will not want anything to do with us.

 

Trolling will only make this problem worse. It will make everyone angry and it will bring chaos to the community instead of stability. This is a terrible solution to the problem. I will try my best to attend the next Guild Summit to brainstorm better ideas. I will not stand-by and give people an excuse to troll others.

You're acting like this is some huge epidemic when it really isn't. Explain what you mean by trolling people and what's happened that you find so reprehensible? Sounds like you're just ranting to rant.

 

What WILL happen if people pull a commander without flagging? People will heal it without flagging. If you're going to be lame about it, others will be lame in kind. That said, I'll never heal a commander without flagging if you yourself flag to attack it, and I'll never attack a commander without flagging. If I can't kill the commander and the players defending it, I don't deserve to kill it, case closed.

 

I do hope they'll either add something that auto flags you if attacking the commander or widen the flagging range around the bases. I also hope if these changes are made, they also make healing the commander flag you as well. Until these changes are made though, we'll just have to make due.
