JainiaDral Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I'll second BC as having a pretty civilized community. The trolls exist, especially on Coruscant and DK, (Fleet's kind of iffy sometimes too), but usually questions get answered eventually. It's nothing like the utter cesspool of the Harbinger--and it sounds like nothing's improved since I left it two years ago. Anyway, if you're thinking of rolling a new toon on BC, hit up my current juggy Ibishha either in game or by mail, and I'll see if I can help get you started into speederland (pubside, eventually I'll be back to my commando Jussyne). Hint: you can get a multi-level adaptable speeder by running Black Talon/Esseles flashpoints solo on the Fleet. To anyone who justifies trolling: who cares if the game is five years old? New players exist, and Gen Chat is a valuable tool for them to get their questions answered. If you're irritated or annoyed by questions, don't answer. Simple. The speeder question gets asked a lot because the in-game help is completely useless and out of date. A new player, short of googling everything, has no way of finding out current and accurate information without asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eshvara Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Dromund Kaas is legendary. I think it's the power of the Dark Temple slowly brainwashing all residents. Also it's such a well known discussion swamp that people are often throwing in Trump/Hillary or religious topic baits just to keep the DK chat legend alive:-D. Don't forget the topics about gays, the males in particular. Sometimes I just don't know what I'm reading anymore!!! There's no such thing as stupid questions, just stupid answers. All The Best Asking a clearly fat person if he's fat is a stupid question tbfh. Edited January 2, 2017 by Eshvara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelleth Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Play WoW for half an hour and ask questions in trade chat. That is, ask a question when the chat isn't being spammed by Thunderfury, butt and Harembe spam. Because that is what is, 24/7. SWTORs community is tame when compared to WoWs.

SebastiaanZ Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Dromund Kaas is not at all a representation of what the community might look like. That is if you were to join a guild. There are enough good guilds around that will help you with the smallest things, from questions about speeder vendor to other stuff. Dromund Kaas is a toxic wastedump, as are the starter planets or the fleets, who have a crapload of keyboard warriors on them. My advice would be join a guild, and you'll never have that kind of trouble again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grania Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Dromund Kaas is a toxic wastedump Ah, but it's home, isn't it? And the freaky imps, they are my people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zasszz Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Most of the time droomund kaas is either completely silent or people randomly saying hi. The only time it gets loud its when some ****** steals the elite for the temple H2. Other than that its actually pleasent there. The fleet is much worse EVERY DAY.

LeGrindMax Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 The "forums community" is way, waaaaaaay worse At least the ingame community is actually PLAYING the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zasszz Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 The "forums community" is way, waaaaaaay worse At least the ingame community is actually PLAYING the game With my 8 years of wow forum experience and over a year here, I disagree. People on the forum generally have a problem of confusing criticism with whining, there are troll posts, smartbutts and clueless people without a life. Just like fleet chat. Droomund kaas and coruscant usually have clueless people and long timers in their strongholds who occasionally troll the clueless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parane Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I definitely don't agree with that. The experience I have in the newcomer areas is nothing but positive. Plenty of exceptionally helpful and patient players whenever you're in need of something. The WoW community is beyond toxic in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StupidWiz Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Eh, sometimes troll replies made me chuckle. to OP, know that not all people are ******es. If I was there, I'd help you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_mike Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) Ah, but it's home, isn't it? For those of us who play out of our strongholds, yes it is. One of these days, I'll finish up the business area of my Tatoonine stronghold and move my characters over there.

TUXs Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Started playing yesterday after having my doubt since launch... today i decided against all judgement to go subscriber to gain more benefits because i did like it somewhat... and it was 13$. But today i've been running around in Kaas city for 1 hour trying to locate the trainer for speeder, and everytime i've asked in general chat for help, i've been trolled by all players who actually responded. I come from Warframe where, if you ask a question, you get instantly 5-6 ADULT REPLIES to the direct solution to the problem. But in this game, is appears to be only trolls and immature players. Starting to regret that 13$ spent. Wait...you've been playing since launch and JUST subbed for your first month...and you're regretting paying $13?? Wow lol...WOW!

dylanamosia Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Apparently OP has never played World of Warcraft... That community is a lesson on toxic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertFKennedyUS Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 That was my first thought. Harbinger might be the most active server, but it also has the most toxic chat. DK chat on JC is also pretty bad. I actually used to go to my SH on Yavin just to avoid it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurgesRaichu Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I usually watch the chats, regardless of the planet I'm on. I give the question a few moments and, if I know the answer, I usually send an answer. Unfortunately, I'm on Shadowlands and on the Light Side.

Adric_the_Red Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 True, I was just keeping it simplistic. And I agree, the DK stronghold chat would be just as toxic, but I refuse to have a DK stronghold... so no personal experience with it.I have all 5 strongholds, so, yeah, I see all the toxic "capital world" chat on both factions.

Lionflash Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 You play for 1 hour, on 1 server, talking on 1 planet and you make a generalization about the entire ingame community? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshvara Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 You play for 1 hour, on 1 server, talking on 1 planet and you make a generalization about the entire ingame community?

Lionflash Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 People who have played for much longer still say the same thing. Fair enough. I've played for awhile too, on Ven Zallow > Jung Ma > Jedi Covenant and the communities IMHO have been pretty good over the years on the ones I've been a part of. These days (on Jedi Covenant), PVPers say "gg" and PVEers say "ty hf" at the end of matches and I often see people answer questions. Of course, there are a bunch of rude and mean people too.

I generally see the rude players on the empire, I'm sure reps have some rotten apples too, but the empire is ahead by miles. I havent however noticed much rude players on the Empire of the progenitor, just TRE, and TFN is pretty dead so. ;/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
