OP,
Your majesty, i feel the need to inform you that Starwars: The Old republic is NOT a MMO but it is infact a MMORPG, which specifically stands for Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing GAME... the RPG part does not stand for rocket propelled grenade which i believe you were misinformed into believing that because the game features a trooper class they needed to put RPG in there... Furthermore role playing games are defined by their intricate STORIES, so i apologize to inform you that it is infact STORYTIME.

there is good news for you, your majesty... EA has a video game for your more action packed needs its called CALL OF DUTY.

have a nice day.

Yes that is my mistake, activision is owned by blizzard though so it should suit his entertainment needs. i think its medal of honor or battlefield made by EA.

Edit: I think, for now, this issue has been resolved for me thanks to a helpful post by Zannis. I will be now be able to easily determine which player is being uncooperative and remove them.

There will be dots while someone is watching the movie, and a dash when they're done and waiting.


Thank you for this helpful info. I had no idea you could determine this from the group portraits. My groups should run a lot smoother now that I can replace players who don't follow my politely stated rules.
Because, clearly, your time is so valuable.

It's amazing how many people can't read the entire first post and instead want to jump on someone.

LFM - NO CUTSCENES

If you're interested in cut scenes, you see that ad, and you decide to join that group, you're not so bright. You'll cry when you're kicked, but you have no one to blame but yourself.

Although I disagree with his playstyle, it is his business if he wants to run like that with like-minded individuals. As long as he is upfront about his intentions and warns people about the space bar requirement, then ultimately he's not hurting anyone. More power to ya.

I'll stick with enjoying the cut-scenes myself though.
