Otherwise, we ask that posters exercise reasonable judgment when creating threads or posts, and be mindful that they are posting them in the correct area - certain posts that may be acceptable in one section of the Community area may be a really poor fit for another area.
If you see an inappropriate post, please flag it to bring it to the attention of our Moderators, and if you have specific questions regarding a moderated thread, the appropriate thing to do would be to email us at bwacommunitysupport@bioware.com and include information like name of the thread, and when it was deleted - so that we know exactly what we are looking for, and we will be happy to look into it for you. |

| ErickAdams | Website Feedback and Support -> Forum quick links Many of these features are available by going to your account page - which is accessed by clicking your name at the top of the screen.
Once you are in that page, you can click on "Show All Statistics" under your avatar, and it will show you either all threads that you have made, or all posts that you have made. Also, you may have noticed two icons between your screen name, and your "My Account" button at the top of the screen. The one on the left (looks like an envelope) is for private messages and friend requests, and the one on the right (looks like a chat balloon) is for your subscribed threads. The default settings should have you subscribed to a thread once you post in it, so that is an easy way to eyeball activity in threads you have participated in. Clicking that icon will also allow you to manage (move or delete) subscriptions. I hope that's some help, and if you have anymore specific suggestions, please feel free to post here. We're working on getting some more features implemented, so now is a great time to offer those suggestions! Thanks, ~Erick |

| SeanDahlberg | General Discussion -> Today's and Upcoming Updates We're working on updating the website with today's update now and I wanted to go ahead and let you all know that it will be Threat of Peace #20. I anticipate that some of you may be upset by this news but before you start writing that reply, here's a few more things to hear first.
We plan on ending the year well. Looking at the roadmap on my wall, we will be doing an update every Friday throughout the rest of the year, including over the holidays. And not a single one of those is a webcomic (by itself) and no Fan Fridays (although they will be returning next year... with some new facets). We are having a light week this week but I'd recommend checking back next week and every other week through the end of the year (and of course, come back next year!). For those of you who normally just check in for our weekly updates and want to know what's going up before coming to the site, we have a few things for you. If you're using a RSS Reader, make sure to add The Old Republic RSS News to it. Whenever we have an update on the official website, we also bring these releases to you on some of the social networks. You can find pages for The Old Republic at the following:And, of course, we also have The Old Republic Newsletter which is sent out to highlight major updates and announcements. - Sean |

| ErickAdams | Website Feedback and Support -> Question regarding the beta's system spec scanner We are aware that there is an issue with the scan picking up incorrect information, and this appears to be just a display issue. There are several fields that are hidden from users, and they seem to be getting filled with an arbitrarily designated item, however when we pull the information out on the back end, it shows up intact and accurate.
This is something we are looking into, but it should not affect your chances to be selected for testing. |

| ErickAdams | Website Feedback and Support -> Forum clean up suggestion Thanks for your suggestion!
This is actually something that we have considered and discussed at length. We really like the idea here, and agree that it would make finding and managing the relevant information easier - for us and our Community members, but at this time we feel that, since these systems haven't been announced yet, moving in this direction is still a little premature. It would be like dedicating a class sub-forum to a class that hadn't been announced. tl;dr - We like the overall idea here, but don't feel that there is enough announced information to support implementing this suggestion just yet. Thanks! |
11-15-2009 07:03 PM | ||||
| ErickAdams | Website Feedback and Support -> who else thinks its dumb you have to be 18 to beta test As has been pointed out in various posts in this thread, we do require testing candidates to be at least 18 years old for this phase of testing, because that is the minimum required age to enter into a legally binding agreement.
If at some point requirements change, we will definitely make sure the Community is aware of those changes and put out the information as it becomes available. Thanks! |

| AmyCrider | Website Feedback and Support -> SWTOR Moderators: This is for you!!! Thanks for the feedback. The difficult part is finding a balance between allowing a lot of duplicate posts and locking them all. We've spoken about this in our meetings and will sometimes allow new "duplicate posts" for a few situations:
1) the new post is addressing the topic in a different way 2) if the original post is old 3) if the original post is extremely long 4) if the original post has veered away from its original topic. Either way, a good way to not have your post closed is to use to the Search feature and make sure your topic has not been discussed before. If it has, feel free to use the original thread to post your thoughts. Otherwise, the forums will be extremely cluttered and disorganized. |

| SeanDahlberg | General Discussion -> Payment Method Discussion (v2) I've seen a few threads and posts about this and just wanted to reiterate and confirm that we have made no official statements about the business model for Star Wars: The Old Republic. When we do have information as to business model for The Old Republic, we will definitely share it with all of you and you’ll find that information here on the official website.
We only want to give you, our fans, fair and accurate information. We don’t want to tell you how we want something to work; we want to tell you how something does work. So, until a system, including the business model, is to at state where we feel we are almost 100% confident it won't be altered, we will rarely discuss it. |

| ErickAdams | General Discussion -> Farming Bots Quote:
(Sometimes they pick on me for writing things that are too long ) |
11-04-2009 05:45 PM | ||||
| ErickAdams | General Discussion -> Farming Bots One of the problems with gold selling in particular, is that it's not people who are paying for a subscription who are selling the gold. Usually this gold is coming from accounts that have been hacked by some sort of keylogging software when the account owner tries to buy gold or powerleveling services.
Usually the cycle works something like this: A player decides to buy gold/powerleveling. They go to a website, enter their account information, email address, provide a credit card number, and download/install a keylogger. Then their account is accessed for powerleveling, or the gold they have purchased is mailed to them from another keylogged account that is compromised. Several weeks later, the person who purchased the service is completely satisfied, and forgets all about the incident, until one day they log in and find that their account has been accessed and stripped of all value (items and gold mailed to another account who has purchased a similar service for real money). They may also find that they have been sending strange emails, and using their credit card for services they never wanted, usually because the keylogger has stored all their information, including password changes (anyone who tells you that "cut/paste" beats this doesn't know). So any solution that removes user awareness and accountability is incomplete, at best (no gaming company can stop you from giving away your account information, if that's what you really want to do). This is something that is a huge concern to all gaming companies, and there is no financial gain to the company themselves or any benefit to legitimate, fair-play subscribers when this happens. This is a top concern of gaming companies in all sectors, and one that we are aware of and preparing to be able to address - however, it would be self defeating if we were to publicly announce what measures we are taking, because that gives those we seek to thwart advance notice. |

Here's an update about the system scan. Yesterday, we took the process apart and analyzed it from start to finish - including partner processes. We found a few possible issues, that have since been resolved, and the scan should be working now - assuming browser and java compatibility. If you have been unable to complete the scan, try it again now, and get back to us if you are still having issues. We appreciate your patience while we worked on this, and wish you the best of luck getting into testing! Thanks! |

| AmyCrider | Website Feedback and Support -> Game Testing - Issues Signing Up [Oct 1, 2009] Posted in the stickied Known Issues thread as well... Hi all, We've recently encountered an error with the Star Wars: The Old Republic Game Testing sign up page and users of the 64-bit version of Internet Explorer on Windows 64-bit platforms. When using Internet Explorer 64-bit, the system scanning program will either fail, or it will appear to have completed properly and submit your data, but it will actually fail to scan your system or submit your specifications to BioWare. For this reason, we are encouraging users to either use the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer when signing up for the STAR WARS: The Old Republic testing process, or to switch to another supported browser. If you're on a Windows 64-bit system, you can identify the version of Internet Explorer you are using by bringing up the Task Manager and selecting the Processes tab. Then find iexplore.exe. If you are using the 32-bit version, it will say iexplore.exe *32. If you are using the 64-bit version, it will say iexplore.exe. To switch to the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer, simply choose the program listed as Internet Explorer (not Internet Explorer 64-bit) program from your Start Menu. We are in the process of getting more information about this issue in order to find a resolution. We apologize for any inconvenience. |

| RobChestney | General Discussion -> Question To Bioware - 30 ATC Or Not? There has been some confusion about this due to a press release which mis-stated the dates. The time in which the game begins is less than 10 years after the Treaty of Coruscant. In general, we've tried to keep this a little vague, because the Old Republic doesn't take place in a single moment of history but over a period of a few years. Suffice to say, the Treaty's been in place long enough for it to start fraying at the edges.

It’s been a humbling 24 hours. We knew that interest would be high but yesterday the community proved just how highly anticipated Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ is. We experienced an overwhelming amount of traffic which resulted in having to bring the website down so the team could address the performance and capacity issues.

| AmyCrider | News and Announcements -> Timeline 4: The Empire Changes Strategy Jedi Master Gnost-Dural has entered a new holorecord in the Jedi Archive. After a thorough analysis of the evidence, Master Gnost-Dural has discovered that the Mandalorians’ return to the galaxy and alliance with the Sith was no coincidence—it was the result of years of shadowy machinations by the sinister agents of Imperial Intelligence.
BTC 14 – Frustrated by a series of Republic military victories, the Empire began exploring alternative strategies in its drive to conquer the galaxy. Despite the tantalizing offers of Imperial Diplomats, members of the galaxy’s notorious underworld refused to swear allegiance to the Sith Empire. Thus, Imperial Intelligence began laying the groundwork to win the underworld’s loyalty through other means. Infiltrating the gladiatorial arenas of Geonosis, Imperial agents fixed the fights to cultivate the rise of a new Mandalore—an Imperial puppet who would call forth some of the galaxy’s most proud and independent warriors to unknowingly aid in the Empire’s dark designs. Watch the fourth Timeline holorecord, The Empire Changes Strategy, narrated by actor Lance Henriksen. You can also download a high resolution version of this video. |

| SeanDahlberg | Surveys and Polls -> What will you do? The situation on board the Black Talon has become critical. Citing self-preservation as his motive, the veteran captain has disobeyed a direct order to engage a Republic ship – an act of insubordination dangerously close to treason.
The clock is ticking down to an imminent attack by a Jedi boarding party. You are onboard as a representative of the Emperor. He will be very displeased if the Black Talon fails its mission and falls to the Republic. The time has come to prove yourself to your master. What will you do?

| ErickAdams | Roleplay and Play-by-Post -> Roleplaying Welcome Thread! Post Here First! Hey Everyone!
I can't speak for the rest of the TOR Community Team, but personally am really glad to see such a large number of Role Play, Story, and Fan Fiction driven people in our community. From my perspective, that goes a long way towards making this place feel like home! I've been an active Role-Player for a number of years and learned many valuable life-lessons from the paper and pencil genre. Most notably: "If you are going to leave d4 scattered on your bedroom floor, don't walk around barefoot!" Currently I'm in an active RP/Raiding guild in a popluar MMO ((Why, yes. I DO believe that my character would tell your character not to stand in the fire.)) and am fortunate that, while we aren't elitists by any stretch of the imagination, most of the people in our story-lines are much better at it than I am. Still learning. Always learning I haven't really settled on any real persona or back story for when the game releases, but lately have been working on something where I answer people's questions and help them in finding their way around. So if you have questions or issues that need addressing, perhaps we can put a story-line together. *winks almost imperceptibly* ~Erick |

| SeanDahlberg | News and Announcements -> The Return of the Mandalorians The Keeper of the Jedi Archives has entered a new holorecord. Continuing his investigation, Master Gnost-Dural delves deeper into the history of the galaxy after discovering that the blockade that Hylo Visz helped end was a result of the actions of the new Mandalore.
BTC 8 – During a Republic resurgence in the Great War, a bold young warrior rose to fame in the Gladiatorial arenas on Geonosis. Adopting the ancient and infamous title of Mandalore, this young leader amassed an army of Mandalorian mercenaries and bounty hunters. The new Mandalore led his forces to form a blockade and challenge the Jedi Order, effectively turning the tide of the war back in the Sith Empire’s favor. Watch the third Timeline holorecord, The Return of the Mandalorians, narrated by actor Lance Henriksen. You can also download a high resolution version of this video. |

| SeanDahlberg | Trooper -> Trooper Revealed! Trooper Class Revealed!
We are excited to reveal the next playable character class in Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ – the Trooper! The Trooper is an elite combat specialist in the Republic military armed with heavy blaster rifles and nearly impenetrable armor designed by the military’s top engineers. Trained to beat almost any odds, the Trooper battles deep behind enemy lines to carry out precise, hard hitting strikes against the enemy, with a barrage of blaster-fire and a few carefully aimed firebombs. Even Sith Lords are wise to think twice before engaging in combat with the Trooper—this is what it means to be one of the Republic’s finest. Learn more about the Trooper class and check out the latest Trooper inspired wallpapers! In conjunction with this announcement, GameSpot conducted an interview with Principal Lead Writer Daniel Erickson and Lead Combat Designer Damion Schubert. |
