What's point of Social pts if you play Solo?

I enjoy playing solo. I love it, I hate to depend or be a liability in a social setting in the game.

Social points however, are a great idea. I'm social rank 1 with like 400 points or something like that, and for those who enjoy their content with other people it's a great reward, for once there is an actual reward for it.

I'll keep to myself though, I like my solo playstyle.

Okay, I solo mostly because no one wants to play with me. Today though I helped someone do heroic quests and had a great time though I also think social points favor pvpers and that's fine with me if I didn't have a quest telling me to get a social badge, lol, don't even know how to do it.

BTW, I'm on the Ebon Hawk server. I have two characters, a republic trooper and a sith warrior. Does anyone want to play with me? I'd love to do some flashpoints eventually. My trooper is only level 12. My sith is level 3 or something. PVP is definitely not my thing. PM me if you'd like to play with me or invite me to your guild.

Oh, OP, I disagree with you. I think most people like to group. It's just hard to find a group who wants you.

Okay let me try to understand why this bothers you. So you want the skins but you want to do them solo? All your alts 2x? If you have 50's you do not need groups to get your gear

What, are you forcing yourself to group for gear you do not need? Tool
what you suggest is that he dualbox?i do not believe that that is allowed .ill not waste the 10 seconds to go look.

I don't mind the whole social point thing, but I don't get why the pilot uniforms from space combat (an entirely solo passtime) got linked to social points? That doesn't seem right.

I never knew that. That's just plain wrong.
Needs to be brought to BW attention.

Yeah, I actually submitted a bug report thinking it was unintentional. You have to pay fleet commendations for them too, so it's not a general social clothing vendor.

I agree with the OP. I play this MASSIVELY MULTIPLAYER game to avoid other people. If you want to be social and stuff, go watch someone play Skyrim.
