Well my projects that I figured would only take a week is going to take a lot longer so im going to be LOA for a while me and Linlinn are pretty busy (between her two jobs and my art projects plus the kids we dont have much time for gaming right now)

hopefully I wont be gone too long. but I have a lot of catching up to do, and I figure this is a good place in swtor to take a break and catch up with RL stuff in the meantime.

um welcome to 2004? We already knew MMOs (at least the successful ones) were about skinner box design. hell zinga is the most successful gaming company and all of their games are purely skinner box. (they make farmville)

Its what sells and what we buy :shrug: at least until someone finally reinvents the sandbox.

well reading some of the thread there were a few intelligent posts. some say that the PTS showed a split between ranked 8 man queue and solo queues which would drive even LONGER wait times on Warzones for those servers already on light status.

seems to hold up as Reid posted that when they do phase in Ranked, it will be 8 man group only at first, followed by others later.

this could be a blessing in disguise for FA. we get more practice time in, finish off the battlemaster pieces some folks need and obtain some of the warhero stuff.

Non-VR Games / Ranked PvP Teams
« on: April 10, 2012, 04:25:20 pm »
just because no one made it yesterday doesnt mean its necessarily a bad time. we had good turn outs the last two weeks.

I for one was recovering from sunday. Running around to different family obligations and listening to mindless fam chatter takes it out of me and needed a day of rest and relaxation.

dont let one missed day mean they ALL are going to be missed.

not sure how i feel about it. on one hand it keeps the ranked warzone even on a competitive level (i dont care about the looks, im just going to pull the mods out anyways. sure others will for augment slots) but the other it doesnt actually distinguish much from those that have the 2400 rating needed for the chest vs the guy that just bought it with coms.

guess it will really come down to a persons rating on their character sheet for the epeen status (which i care less about anyways)

I'm more interested in seeing FA rank well overall on the server.

I guess my point was missed entirely and the ones feeling the need to defend themselves werent the ones it was directed at.

Raid groups need 10 sign ups to confirm 8. we barely get that out of our regular members. you need about 20 to do 16. its just the way it is. but we arent getting a lot of commitment out of our regular base to fill those numbers. what i mean by half assed is that we dont get enough of a commitment to do anything out of a 100 members to do anything other than events like pvp patrols or drinking nights where we have a good turnout.

"Please don't tar us all with the same brush. We didn't all come into this guild expecting the same as you. Nor do we all expect the same things from a guild as yourself (or indeed Ademaro)." you missed the line that said some of us in my statement. I didnt tar anyone with the same brush. but it isnt really about what i expect the guild to do for me. When i was interviewed a lot of it was about what I could do for the guild instead.

And T, Broin, this has nothing to do with the masters. I stated that you guys bend over backwards for us. I want my fellow guildmates that are not commiting to something to contribute in some way to the guild for it to be successful.

I feel the ones talking on this thread are the ones I thought did the most for the guild thus far (as well as a lot of others). My problem is a lof of you suffer in your chosen content because we either have a big lack of interest in doing it (being short on raid content) or we arent committing to it when we want to.

I actually feel bad about not doing raids when i could be doing them with you. but its something me and linlinn talked about before the game even released that we didnt want the kids to be ignored or ourselves for raiding. (their real father does it enough it seems). work also throws a monkey wrench in that too. while ive voiced my disfavor of raids, they arent compeletely out of the question so much as making the full commitment I feel necessary for you guys to be as far in progression as you could be right now.

I dont think people should feel im taking Ademaro's side on things. If felt he was right in doing what he did and disliked everything going on, I would be gone too. but i think FA is one of (if not the) best guilds on the server. I just want the rest of the server to see what i see.

Quote from: "Sared"
War Hero gear can only be purchased with a combination of the same piece of Battlemaster gear as well as Rated Warzone Commendations, with the cost of the latter being determined by your Ranked Warzone Rating. For example:

War Hero Enforcer's Armguards
Costs
Battlemaster Enforcer's Armguards (1)
Ranked Warzone Commendations (3,475)

War Hero Enforcer's Armguards (Rated)
Costs
Battlemaster Enforcer's Blaster (1)
Ranked Warzone Commendations (250)
Requires Highest Warzone Rating (1200)


?? this is the same item with different requirements. was this a typo or are there different stats on either set?

if this is the case then why bother with having a piece of rated gear over the non rated if they are exactly the same.

Good fucking riddance a leech on the guild sorry to you all who thought this guy was a good guy but from my interactions with him he was a selfish fucktard who I won't miss as he exhibited all of the traits I don't expect from an FA member so I'm glad he's gone


and comments made this way are not what i expect from someone who was a master at one point.

thought we were supposed to show some professionalism around here.

after speaking with him at length about it, im not entirely convinced either side of this case handled this well at all. and im definately not happy about either side of the fence.

speaking my mind about matters in general. When you go through the FA challenge, you have an expectation that this guild conducts its matters with a key focus. This has been FAR from the case. We raid half assed. we pvp half assed. and its not because we cant do both. its because NO ONE chooses to do either one with any real degree of more than just a passing interest around here.

I dont like raiding. (my cup was filled over in wow and watching the tutorial videos on the raids here tell me we have an expansion before i want to do more than walk through it once) So i dont. I give that open slot to someone who would actually want to raid with interest.

PVP wise its the same coin though. He and I and a select few people pvp day in and day out. we beg borrow and plead anyone to join up and on a good day we may have to tell someone the group was full. for a pvp guild that should have been an everyday thing.

And I dont blame the masters for this. They bend over backwards to try and get things to work the best they can. Tbone has even given up his chance to raid to try to make things work.

The problem lies with my fellow guildmates. none of you will shit or get off the pot when comes to doing anything with any core focus to what you want to do.

So back to some of us coming in from the challenge. we saw a hardcore guild with a core focus. what we have right now is a very casual guild that has a lot of separate interests and it pisses them off. Trash him all you want, but he was a harcore player with a focus. we didnt meet his needs and he started looking elsewhere for other guilds to fulfill that role.

cant really call him a selfish fucktard when the man almost always bent over backwards to help me out when i needed it.

apparently there is a weelky sunday pvp event (sort of tournatment) that goes on. Im busy on sundays and cant make it. didnt even know about it till tuesday when he told me. I did tell him that there is a good chance that no one knows about this event and he should bring it up several times. he never did.

Im not sure why he felt the way he did. he would not discuss it with me either. we pvp'd together almost every moment he wasnt raiding or was offline.

It sucks because he was good. we had huttball matches down to an almost sure fire win every time. and he had excellent communication skills. we stamped out a lot of premade tactica together looking at what works and what doesnt. Now hes taking that playbook elsewhere. Which aggrivates the hell out of me.

General / Poll: GTN Control
« on: March 26, 2012, 10:44:33 pm »
i dont like GTN control at all. forced inflation of the market is going to make it harder for some of us to sell because we have to sell items at the listed price and hope there are enough buyers to buy our item as well.

plus this turns FA into a corporate mafia of sorts and could give us a black eye on a larger scale.

its ok if the pricing is competitive for everyone out there, but its going to be hard on that new guy thats non guilded to make his money and its going to start to make things sour in the public eye.
