You're a little overly worked up about this item being removed from the game, which is... suspicious

Enjoy the game as it was meant to be played.

Have a nice day.

In the meantime, their value has been changed so that they can be sold back to the vendor at no loss. We apologize for any confusion.
Can we remove all speeders from fleet? They are detrimental to gameplay by adding extra video lag (exhaust animations) and many of the players owning the larger vehicles use them to cover mailboxes and vendors. In line with the party bomb fix, we request nay demand complete removal of all speeders, everywhere.
I need about tree fitty.

I agree with the whole speeder thing. The party bomb I thought was funny and it looked like people enjoyed it. The giant speeders on the other hand are one of the more annoying things. The GTN is constantly surrounded by people in large speeders. Heck, I have one of the large speeders and I never use it, I prefer using the one I bought from the lightside vendor. I'll admit, the only time I use my giant speeders is when I want to annoy people. I pull it out and park on top of a group of people, and I get a number of comments telling me to move my speeder and people being annoyed by it. When using the party bomb I got zero negative comments and many comments asking me where and what level was needed to get it. Using giant speeder many comments telling me to get it out of the way, no comments asking where to get it.

Rutrict ..looking back on many of your posts through the past couple months has led me to believe you're a negative nancy. As the Party Bombs Advocate you are suspect in my opinion.

Again, the removal of this social ability was due to its misuse, ultimately causing its removal. I won't pretend to be as 'informed" as our friend Rutrict here. I pay my sub, I log in, I enjoy myself. I do not log in and disrupt other players activities, conversations, transactions etc etc

I am for the removal of all similar items from the game. I have my preferences, some have others.

And I am being the negative one? Instead of making both the players who like and dislike these items happy ...you'd instead have them removed VS having the ability to select a box that prevents them from affecting you? Oh I get it, you want the game to cater to you and only you. Gotcha.

It was indeed fun having the party ball for raids and warzones.

I do think it was a bug on pts that caused them to pull it, not whiny antisocial poser role players, buuuuut

But after reading this post, I'll be griefing them with the korrealis instead. At least with the party bomb they could rp with it. With a huge car bouncing and spinning around them it will be most challenging to rp with.

But hey, everyone who innocently used this got punished for the few who abused it thanks to a vocal minority? Maybe we should go ahead and grief all the rp for the few who whined.

Yes I think that will work. So bioware, griefing with vehicles or with party bombs? Your call.

Ok this is gone. We can help the Team work with cool ideas!
If they can solve this problem they will do it and we will get back the bomb or a similar item wiht lights and music.
If u have any good idea for the future what u want to see in the game as social item dont hold it back! This forum doesn't need more crying but still need good ideas! The more the better! Maybe we will see back in the game what we cooked up in here!
So come on forget this now and give ideas! My first idea is a usable trophy reward for social and valor ranks!
For example: You have social 5 and valor rank 50. You can go and buy the trophy. The trophy may can be a big lightposter with lights on the corners (similar as look like the party instigator). On the middle is there images of the defeated opponents or battles (foe: Darth Malgus, Karagga, Voidstar picture, event bosses, world bosses etc). If u do more and more this images may can be to shift about! And this won't be hurt the otheres
This would be nice huh?

I think trophies would be a cool idea. Except I want to have a trophy room somewhere on my ship. Little statues of the world bosses you have downed, trophies for when you reach certain social ranks or valor ranks, trophies for the bosses downed in operations, maybe a vanity pet collector trophy. I think a room like that on your ship would be kind of cool.
