  1. That is an excellent question because I would love to move some characters around now that the smaller communities merged.
  2. COTP really is great and their community is very engaged and active. The Republic side is much more active but they do have an Empire presence. Great group of people!
  3. I am in the guild and they seem to have a good community. I am gay and although I haven't brought it up they seem very accepting and are very active (Republic side). They do have an Empire side but not as active. I like them so much I am actively looking at leveling a Republic toon all the way to max to play more with them. (gasp)
  4. I have returned after a long hiatus but is this a big problem on Shadowlands. I just transferred some characters here because the time zone is much better for me and they seem to have a very friendly community. I got spam on harbinger but never bumped into a bot. Mostly I am wondering if this is becoming more common or is this a one off. Not too worried either way just looking to see what long term players on this server have to say.
  5. Yes, they are meant to be 40+ professionals. I just joined but they did ask about my age. I think it is because they want to guild of people that work full-time, and other life responsibilities. I have already noticed that the feel of the guild is different because of that. So, if you are 40 years old or more I highly recommend them. They are very nice, laid back people.
  6. I agree! I have always felt that my VIP bracelet from the Collector's Edition wasn't worth too much so having some renovations and updated for the VIP lounge would be great.
  7. Hi there, I am coming back to casually play although I have been around a while. 43 yo who works for a University here in Minnesota. This seems like a nice group of mature players. I have a guild on Empire side but looking for a new home for my Republic characters. Not sure where to go, I added the discord server and applied on the guildlaunch site but wasn't sure who to contact or the process for getting admitted. Thanks!
  8. This is an interesting premise but I would alter it that if you have a subscription. You could tier up slightly for $5, $10, $25 or whatever and because you regularly purchase additional coins that you might get a 500 coin bonus or something. That way, they could keep the subscriber but you could have an addon that might give you more monthly coins then if you purchased them. This seems like a possibility to get a little of both concepts.
  9. Just so people know, it isn't about offensive because I can tell you that our guilds can be offensive. The difference is that they don't feel judged for talking about a date that they went on. You have to understand that at least in our guild, many of our members have been friends online for many years and in many cases have visited each other at yearly gatherings that we have. Community and comfort is the bigger picture here rather than being PC or making people excluded because we don't have a white, straight male guild (which for reference is a large portion of guilds already). The difference is that GLBT have to deal every day sitting at a table with people who do not have the same issues or concerns that they do and having a place to regroup and be comfortable is an oasis.
  10. Just a reminder to anyone looking for an active GLBT and Allies guild...hope to see you soon and feel free to message me if you have any questions.
  11. I still enjoy the game but I have to say that I would also like to see some more class stories. I mean, I am on the Dark Council...what kind of insurance plans do we get? What is our dental? Do they cover outpatient? What are my retirement benefits? These are the things that I really need to know for my future.
  12. And even though it may have gotten lost I did post about the Rough Trade Gaming Community. We are in a variety of games and the link is in my signature below.
  13. Hey all, they have said that they are aware of it and will be fixed in next update so should be good soon enough. I hope most of you have other speeders you can use.
  14. I am somewhat surprised that so many people are concerned about a safe and respectful place for GLBT members and allies. I also wanted to state that I am not talking about your personal lives in general chat. What I am saying is that general chat can often be just as bad with misogynistic, racist and homophobic commentary that stoops to the level of junior high.
  15. Taint (Sith) and Rough Trade (Republic): Rough Trade Gaming Community Greetings everyone! I wanted to put a reminder out there for those who might be looking for a long running guild in SWTOR. We have been around from the very beginning and are always looking for more members. We are part of a larger gayming community called the Rough Trade Gaming Community and I felt that I would like to just send a reminder that we are here. We are a community of GLBT (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender) members and Allies that are 18+ years old that wanted to build a space where we could speak as ourselves and be supported. So, if you are interested, click on the link above or in my signature below and read our charter and apply. If you are supportive of the GLBT community then you are welcome. We love our straight, genderqueer, asexual, pansexual and everyone in between.
