I knew the event was ending. I assumed that meant I would not longer be able to do dailies nor would I be able to be infected any more. I did not know that the vendor was going away (or I would have spent my saved up rakghoul dna). Seems a fairly silly thing to take away, was expecting something more along the lines of the WoW limited time event(s), where you could turn in tokens for YEARS after the event ended. (They obviously should have had more events)

I usually don't post on the forums. The event was on the main web page stating it was going to end April 24, 2012. I am sooo tired of people thinking it is some one elses fault because they didnt take the time to read or get informed. I think Bioware is doing a good job of fixing issues and adding new content, its not like Bioware can just crap out code and have an issue instantly fixed. Bioware gives you the information, people just need to read it and take responsibility.

Huge blunder, BW. I was gone for 3 days. Now the game time I put into the event is wasted. Ending the event means ending the ability to acquire currency toward the event items, and no more event quests. This will be bad PR for SWToR. Not helping the silent masses that are on the fence about renewing. "Yay, I have a couple hundred DNAs that are now useless unless I stick around for a year. What a waste of time. /ragequit". What game takes away an event vendor at the same time an event ends? Really? Fire your PR person if they haven't chimed in on this, BW.

Very clearly too, AND that the vendor was going too. It is not their fault at all that people choose not to keep themselves informed. The end date of the event was known for a week, at least.

On the Internet, you can be anything you want. It is strange so many people choose to be stupid. http://www.swtor.com/r/ycmWN7 <-- link for some free stuff!

Ok... http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=418771 Quote: We are happy to announce that we are starting to make progress in the neutralization of the Rakghoul Plague Outbreak. It is our hope that the outbreak will be completely contained by April 24th at 2AM CDT (12AM PDT/3AM EDT/8AM BST/9AM CEST/5PM AEST). Citizens have until this time to completely avoid Tatooine and to not engage in investigations of suspicious wreckage on its surface.
