    I completely disagree.   I only started playing about 2 weeks ago.  Prior to that I had only played the original demo for EnB when it came out.  I'm in no rush to get to high levels, haven't even joined a guild yet.  My highest level character is 28.  I've been a solo and casual player the whole time and I'm still having a blast playing.  Over the holidays perhaps I'll step it up a notch, might even be in the market for a nice laid back no pressure guild but I don't even begin to understand where you're coming from here.   Every game is what you make it.  I actually like this game because it doesn't hold your hand though everything like most of the current games do.  If I wanted a WoW experience I'd go play one of the many clones out there but I don't.  I want a game that has some challenge.  A game that takes a bit of thinking and effort to play.  I've said it before and I'll say it again because it's true.  If developers actually listened to every single complaint and suggestion that players made a game would consist of an opening movie, create a charater that looks cool, press one button to blow up everything and instantly level to max level, roll end credits and movie.   So the crafting is a little harder to do.  Doesn't break the game, just makes it more challenging.  I've yet to hear an exciting an memorable game play story about how everything worked out exactly like the player wanted.  No, all the best stories are about how a player tried and failed epicly or tried till he/she was almost to give up and at the last second succeded.  Just because a game is challenging and difficult does not make it broke, does not make it so it can't be played casually, does not make it a horrible game.  It just makes though who want to breeze though things complain.   Developers, keep doing what your doing.  This is the most fun I've had with a game in quite a long time.  Ignore the nay sayers.  Thanks for bringing back a great game and making it greater.

[size=4]Very sad day indeed. One thing of note is that the shooter was 20 years old and had a child in kindergarden. Do a little math there and you'll find a rather interesting number. I might even go so far as to say this could have been a contributing factor in the whole thing. 14 is not mature enough to be having a kid. Could effect a persons judgement in the long term too I would think. Although this is all just my old man opinion.......

I was just thinking about this last night at work actually. Oh, btw, I'm new here, just started playing last Saturday. Anyhow, SWTOR also had a radio station and it was totally awesome. Each weekend they would pick an in game location and have an in game dance party. People would request music and hang out meeting new people and the station staff. It was tons of fun. Some days one of the DJ's would host an in game tour or other event and talk about what was going on between songs. Was always a hoot when she mentioned people dying lol. Another cool thing they did was spoof commercials. These were generally very funny game related commercials that they would stick in one or two of them every 45 minutes or so. Something a little like this: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNVE-wX1_dY"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNVE-wX1_dY[/url] They were cool in the way that they created a very strong link between the station and the game so you felt and knew you were listening to an official in game station at all times. They also ran guild commercials from time to time too. I've got a fairly low voice. I'd love to do some spoof commercials if anyone had some good material to use. Another crazy thought I had, and I have NO idea if this is even a feasible possiblity, would be if it was an in game option to have the station stream automaticly when you went onto a space station. I know, probably not even remotely possible but one can dream...... Glad I found this thread. Need to go get some sleep now but I look forward to hearing the station later on today.
