it may be considered centric for having a guild like this, but you are not barred from applying. Nor are you barred from being accepted! I personally am Native American, male, married, with children. So, IMO no one is barred from joining us. we just have a no tolerance policy for people that just want to be an ***-hat to others...

Nightshade and Black Lotus Syndicate are accepting applications on respective websites, and we would love to have more members. Applications are quick and easy. Best to go to the website and toss in an app, you will find the questions quite simple. Note LGBT - Friendly does not mean exclusive, we do accept people of any orientation, and the goal is to have fun in SWTOR together! We do not ERP, romance RP in public is PG-13 from what I've seen. If you want a fun group accepting of diversity, it's here and you don't need to hide who you are. I may be just a member and not an officer but we'd love more people to apply! http://nightshade-tor.enjin.com http://blacklotussyndicate.enjin.com

Where to begin... Me and my Wife are founder accounts, still subbed but looking for a guild that primarily operates from 9 pm CST- server time to late night. Would like to avoid Heavy RP guilds, as we have had previous bad experience with the hardcore RP set, or at least have Guild chat as OOC. Relatively new to the RP scene, have a long story about first experiences with God-moding from a diff game. which did put us off from RP, but a new game and we decided to give it another chance. Primary problem, current guild on Republic side has no members on during our normal play hours and no guild affiliation on imperial. We miss having great people to just at least chat with, and have a good time. Maybe see what RP events we can get coaxed into going to, so as to get us to learn and grow. My 50's? Operative - Guardian - Shadow Wife's 50? Sage Most characters are on republic side since that's where we began, and the reason I have more 50's? the Wife hates playing alone. Hope some peeps could drop us a line and we can have a conversation about the different great guilds that are out there. You don't need to be a Mega guild to be important in this discussion.

Now for the clarifications aside from previously stated descriptions. Empire or Republic or Both? limitations/requirements? Sorry, but I'm interested in finding a new guild and I play both sides... I may be a Heterosexual man, but I married a Bi woman, and couldn't be happier when she did come out of the closet for a hug! She plays as well and we tend to play in game as a pair...

With the advent of the lockout from Free to Play players needing to purchase a license to equip prototype equipment, I suggest breaking up the flash points in the group finder's story mode. I find that the difficulty of Lost island and Kaon under Siege are set for those who have begun to get Tionese/prototype equipment. Therefore, to avoid frustration from the player base about people who use the random group finder, we don't have the prospective subscriber frustrated and walking away due to what could be a perceived entry level flashpoint when it is not... I suggest two separate tiers rated for if you have access to prototype and higher equipment, as well as the 1st tier for those who have not yet purchased an unlock/subscribed at that time... Granted, I'm not saying the 1st tier needs Daily commendations attached to the random, but it would be good for the 1st tier to have them and have the second tier give at least 1 Black Hole commendation or such as equivalent to the difficulty of said tier...

let the entitled WoWists leave... they'll be back after a years worth of patching. the general impatient public doesn't care about development cycles, and they just want their preferred problem changed. Yesterday! Just because WoW has it currently.... This game is NOT WoW, get over it!

Creating an LGBT guild is one thing, just make sure that you actually DO have straight ppl in the guild or you might wind up in a guild enforcement problem.... The problem being that policy enforcement does not distinguish exclusivity... Activision Blizzard won their court case over destroying an LGBT guild because they refused to include straight ppl, so therefore.... it fell under the same heading as racism, sexism and genderism... if you're afraid to be out of the closet and open with the guild your in, find a different guild! (p.s. I had a normal old regular guild once, that was run by a gay man, then by a lesbian, and a core of the guild was straight... btw, every LGBT member was completely open in convo, had great times. But if you feel you can't be open completely, you have personal issues to resolve and shouldn't push em onto the community...)

I actually laughed here! But still, people need to ignore the big 4 and just get on with the RP... It's always more fun when you're off having fun than when you're kvetching about others....

BW has already stated at the beginning that they will not enforce anything related to RP, and this I thought was smart... They told us right away to not expect any special treatment in the user agreement documentation, and didn't lie about it, unlike other companies I could name in my past... Too bad this means we get immersion ruination and rampant lore breakers. The only way to fight back is to ignore them, refuse to rp with them, and then either A) they will go away or B) everyone plays in their own way. RP servers will always have the 4 common problems.... Trolls, lollers, lore breakers and immersion killers....
