Did you really just complain, because... someone got thanked for saying something nice??? That's.... a take... not a great one... but a take..

Not seeing the option to enable 'cover bar' on a Trooper using Gunslinger style.

The existing sticky wasn't enough?

So, what does this mean for the rest of the "big" plans for the 10 year anniversary? are those delayed as well or do we still get something anniversary-y next week?

Don't forget to grind old content reps, to unlock races, so you can regrind all the grind you've grinded. I'd much rather play SWTOR, than the insane levels of grinding and un-alt friendliness that is BfA.

Oh are you in for a shock... BfA is horrid. You'll be grinding AP to level your neck... and then, because that grind isn't enough, you have to make sure you grind all your reputations to unlock flying, and wait.. just in case you thought you'd had enough grind... you need to grind out all the essences for your neck.. And professions are pretty much pointless, by the time you can make anything useful, you've already got better gear.. Herbalism/Alchemy are the only two that stay relevant. And don't worry... the Holy Pally nerf is coming in January with 8.3.

Buying CM items to sell for credits.. is by no stretch of the imagination a "P2W" mechanic. You really don't seem to understand what P2W actually is. By your logic, even WoW's Token system is "P2W", and... it's not.. It's not "skipping the line" otherwise all of us subscribers would be P2W because if there is a login queue, we jump to the front. Your logic of "having more credits = P2W" means that by your reasoning, someone who has played non-stop since Day 1..and amassed hundreds of millions of credits.. has Paid 2 win.. because they have more credits than you, or than a returning (or new) player..

I'd imagine it'd be the 22nd...at whenever the servers come up from maintenance...

WoW has the exact same "absent GM" system.. they just have a longer window of inactivity required to initiate transfer (90 Days)... If you want a say in what happens to your guild after you found it...... don't abandon it for extended periods of time.

All our alts will not have to pay for training, and anyone who didn't level (or, at least, didn't train all their skills) to 60 also gets the savings... just like the folks that didn't pre-order. Equal benefit to all (going forward from date of announcement).

Played since Beta, pre-ordered all the expacs (so, just the playerbase you're trying to speak for).. and you know what? I totally disagree with you. I think this was a good thing for BW to do, and it benefits pre-orders just as much as it does players who didn't pre-order (with the possible exception being someone who does only have one character, and had leveled it to 60 by the time this change was announced -assuming they paid for all their skills along the way). edit: Also, you keep using "everyone"... I don't think that means what you think it means.

The point, is that they are two issues.. having to retrain is intended, and not changing (based on Eric's response).. having to spend 600k+ at level 60, is drastically different than having to spend 50k at 55.

Nope.

I'm going to have to disagree. Needing to re-train at 55 (or, lower) is a separate issue from the over all issue of costs being insanely expensive this time around. You can see that BioWare even seems to consider them different issues... we still have to re-train... we don't have to pay the crazy expensive costs. Trying to treat them as the same issue, is why some people are getting bent out of shape (at least, in my opinion). Different, but related issues, and people need to treat them as such.

The overall cost of training (and this thread), has absolutely nothing to do with the change that required us (the intentional change, which makes it not a bug), to repurchase skills we already knew pre-3.0. This thread is about the overall cost of training, and the pending removal of that cost. Two different issues.
