Space bar was a mistake.

And it's not rude to make three other people wait all the time?

It's like fast food content; reading quest text was superior.

I'm just getting into the PvE scene, and every flash point group I enter I see things like, SPACEBAWABA, SPACEBAR!!!!, HIT THE SPACE.

So much time was put into the story, and it can be argued that the story is what sets SWTOR apart from all mmorpgs. The game was built around the "4th pillar" (story) of gaming. The change of pace was so refreshing the first week. I was able to slow down and really enjoy the immersion.

Space bar should be disabled in flash points for the sake of all players that come in the future. Let them experience the truly epic immersion I had my first couple weeks.
Perhaps BW should implement a poll system on the group invite pop-up screen akin to the quest choice wheel: (a) Enable space bar, or (b) Disable space bar. Or maybe have a pull-down menu where the party leader can dictate the choice before forming a group that shows up on the group invite pop-up so players are aware. Or perhaps simply asking beforehand . . .

Personally, I choose to play in groups who choose to play out the voice acting. Finding out whether or not my preference is a group fit before ever accepting an invite is the only way to avoid conflict. Play it your way and find others to play with who share your preferences. That's what an MMO is all about.
Can we please just have our pre-KotFE SWTOR MMORPG back?

I've been kicked from several groups for not hitting spacebar.

So everyone should be subjected to the badly written and dull dialog sequences?

That makes sense.

No, everyone who hates the dialogue, should form groups where every member is aware and agrees to skipping dialogue.

Your opinion about the dialogue doesn't make it true for everyone. A lot of us enjoy the dialogue, and are happy to let others play through it, or skip it if the whole group has done it before.

Either way is good, if people can communicate.

But, the average player can't communicate, unless its to grief other people for not playing their way.

The reason they introduced a LFG function in WoW, is because players there can't communicate either.

Blaming the game for your dysfunctions, and demanding the game be fixed to make up for the shortcomings of people, is really, really funny.

That's like getting mad at government, because the people you voted in are corrupt and stupid. Er...no, wait.... :P

I hope someone force-feed you Uwe Boll's movies all day long. See if you like it that way.

Having to wait for people to watch **** storylines or watching them for the 15th time myself is more stressful than rushing.

Stop forcing your opinions on other people.

I never skip the story myself, but of course there should be and option to do so.
