For the first time I was almost ashamed to be wearing the tag Furious Angels as I warzoned this evening.  For the actions of a couple people left a terrible taste in my mouth.

On a consistant basis i am in both our teamspeak and my own due to having friends who play on our server not being in FA.  Today one of my friends decided to jump into warzones for the 1st time. Now he is known to us a casual player, but tries.  His queue pops with huttball and has to ask how to throw the ball and some basics cause he has only heard us talk about it before.   His match goes on and he mentions typical 1st time things like not knowing where to go all the time... timing of the firepits and the point of this little PSA, not knowing you cant access the goal line from "ground level."

He was tossed the ball and not knowing the map yet jumps down off a ledge thinking he can run in from one of the sides.  Well as you all know its gated off and you have a ramp only into the pit. Of course he dies and is flamed as a "terrible player" and "bad pug is bad" among other things. He gets a tell from another pug in the group says "wow what douchebags" discribing the flamers. He portrays the situation to us and I respond with... "what a surprise, dickheads on the internet."

It is on his next death he spawns next to the two people flaming him and I hear, "oh wonderful, those dicks are in your guild."

So I'm not naming names or speaking to them in specifically, I'm squashing a unacceptable behavior.  You speak of positive gameplay and wish to make an impact on the game / server.  In that warzone the impact you had was causing the probably 6 pugs to think we're a guild of douchebag angry teenagers who flame anyone under the sun. So well done with that.  

Your actions are not just your own when you are in a guild they reflect us all.  We all have to deal with the dumb shit that spews out of your mouth when you want to be a dick to someone.  So if you want to rage on someone, hell we all do it... you should hear my rants... do it in guildchat...or teamspeak not in a public manner. Your better than that, I expect to never see that type of behavior again.

*tldr - Don't be a dick to people in general / public chat, it reflects on us all

This is a product recommendation for anyone who hates push-to-talk as much as i do when trying to kill people.

Behold the StealthSwitch II!

This amazing little piece of tech is a USB Footpedal!

It allows you to bind whatever key you choose to the footpedal allowing you to play while having your hands free to kill stuff while using foot to trigger your mic. It has on-board storage so once you program it you can hook it up to any device and it saves your programmed keys.

It is very durable and has a very solid sensitivity level where i never feel i activated it by accident and i have large feet.

Note: This is how I am currently using this, you can also hook up an additional 4 foot pedals and bind them to whatever your little heart desires.

Found a fun online version of Pazaak on the SWTOR forums.  I read somewhere they might add it into TOR as a mini-game, my and doui killled a bunch of time playing against each other while waiting for a dungeon queue, very fun.

Been following this game for quite awhile, and its being released in about two week was wondering what the interest level is here.  My group of friends seem to be on board would love to get some FA action with this.
