ivanhedgehog Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Are you implying going to a Cantina event would make you no longer autonomous? Are they forcing lobotomies on people at these events or have you used the wrong word here? charging $30 a head seems to be indicating previous lobotomies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niblix Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Was just tempted to buy a few of the new packs from the store, I then remembered the 'Shady Slot Machine' and........ put the money in my Steam wallet instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of people seeing celebs of any kind, even minor ones, in person, lose their free will until the celeb is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vhaegrant Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) I think it's the right word. Lots of people seeing celebs of any kind, even minor ones, in person, lose their free will until the celeb is gone. Given the context I think the original poster was probably aiming for 'Anonymous' 1. I prefer to remain autonomous (at least to you all, Bioware of course knows who I am, but doesn't care).

Darevsool Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I think it's the right word. Lots of people seeing celebs of any kind, even minor ones, in person, lose their free will until the celeb is gone. So you're saying that the poster named "Heat-wave" is a 'celebrity' of some sort? I'm not on the forums much so if this is common knowledge here it's the first I've seen anyone claim it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krixten Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I haven't been on this morning and I can't until I get home after work, so let me get clarification.... are Contraband Slot machines that haven't been used now bound to the characters inventory or bank vaults? I'm wondering because that would mean we CAN'T sell them anymore if we get them in cartel packs or buy them from other people off the GTN, right?

Djiini Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) The world wouldn't exist without this thread. Also, I'd say Heat-wave is more INfamous than famous. Edited February 18, 2015 by Djiini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heat-Wave Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 So you're saying that the poster named "Heat-wave" is a 'celebrity' of some sort? I'm not on the forums much so if this is common knowledge here it's the first I've seen anyone claim it. I don't think that was meant to be me, rather then Bioware employees. But I don't consider them celebs, and frankly most celebs are pretty normal people in person, but you're right, many people get starry eyed around them. I do think that most people get nicer in person, it is easy to spew crap from behind a keyboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not on the forums much so if this is common knowledge here it's the first I've seen anyone claim it. Heat-Wave is right, in the context I was directing the minor celeb title at the BW employees. In the cantina events, they are they celebrities, and the vast majority of people attending the events do it because they like the product, and most people in general are nervous in front of a microphone and are looking to specifically not stand out from the crowd and to not make controversy.

I don't know for sure, and now I'm afraid to buy one to verify. However, if they really are bound, wait 3 days for all of them to drop off of the GTN and if you can't find any you'll know they all became bound. Course, then you can't get one without paying CC.

Krixten Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 The way I see it is IF they are now binding to characters, then someone had been working on the slot machine script. If that's the case, then there's two possibilities I can think of that "might" happen: A) They don't want to slot machines to be obtained by anyone unless you spend cartel coins so that way there's less spread of a broken item they have NO intentions of fixing or.... B) They're limiting the ownership of the slot machines so when they do release a possible new payout update, the players who own the slot machines, (mainly those that buy cartel coins) will have something that'spossibly beneficial...??? What that will be, I have no clue. But hopefully we'll find out soon! LOL Ohhhh if there's another possibility that you guys and gals can think of, post it!

lightSaberAddiCt Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Clearly it hasn't. No one is tieing you to a chair, forcing you to open and read them. And last I checked, there was 2 threads on the front page about the CSM. Which can easily get ignored. It seems to me you just wanted yo come into one and try to chastise people discussing something that is of interest to them, maybe just do the adult thing and not click on a thread subject your not interested in.
