I used to live there, that town sucked! Although I currently live in Freeport, IL - and it's not a whole lot better, just less country people. Freeport is about 25 minutes west of Rockford.

On a similar topic... Why do I have to go from one planet, use my ships holocom, fly to another planet, go talk to someone, go to my holocom, flyl to the fleet to not even talk to anyone, just click on them and he's like HERES SOME XP, go to my holocom, then go back to my original location to talk to the person I started with, then go back to my holocom? Why the hell can't I just do a conference call with my high tech holocom?

The game gives you the quality of gear that you need to compete at the level you play honestly. If you don't have a lot of time, and can only get Columni gear, then chances are you really wouldn't have a use for full Rakata, since you only have time to do HM's and daily's. PvP gear is perfectly accessible to the casual gamer, I should know, as I am one. Especially since the last few patches, Champion gear takes a reasonable amount of time. You may not get full BM gear and War Hero, but you can compete.

It's the best MMO on the market right now for me. Just got out of playing some of the Guild Wars 2 beta, up to level 10, after playing this game it just feels so boring. For those who think it's going to take over, well, it probably won't. It's Warhammer Online with Guild Wars system in place. Anyway, I am sure some will like GW2, some still like WoW, others like Aion and Rift, etc etc. It honestly does not matter what you play, everyone has different tastes. For my money, this game is solid, provides me with constant updates and content, and overall appeases my MMO addiction.

Get 4 com's, stealth and afk.

That Fatman or whatever server is loaded, or I read it. Shard of Az something or other, one I play empire on, has 150~ or so on fleet at night, fast queues, etc. I'm very little help.

I mainly play a Sorcerer, and although I will miss the wrath/CL, there are other viable options for the class. You can't just rage quit (well you can) like a four year old every time you don't get your way. Learn to adapt, try healing, which in 1.2 is still good. Try a different spec, 31 madness is fun as well, just a different play style. Crying to mommy and daddy and threatening to quit if you don't get your way is very childish. Blizzard used to give in to the kids when they would do this, hopefully Bioware sticks to their decisions.

Who cares about being a unique snowflake and getting super special gear? I want a level playing field against good competition. If you are as good as you say, it won't matter that those back peddling ******* have the same gear, now will it?

You've only opened 7 bags. There are times when you go on streaks of getting jack, then others you open 3-4 bags and get 2-3 com's.

Please allow us to turn off viewing of planet commendations totally, or at least put the PvP commendations above the planet one's. Minimizing it every time is has caused me to develop an eye twitch.

It sure is hard to keep saying you are a hot girl when the friend invite comes from Bob.

I've had two tokens for gear out of maybe 30 bags since the change. Honestly you gear fast enough as is. The only downfall to my case is the tokens I got were for pieces of gear that I already had.

I just hit 50 a couple days ago on my Sith Sorcerer, and I get pretty demolished. I have no issue with that however, it's how it should be. Why should I be on terms with someone who has spent the time gearing up? I still help the team out, still have fun, still get my 7-9 medals a game. It's a big switch from dominating the 10-49 bracket, but eventually I will get gear and be on par with everyone else.

I believe, "start being lazy", would be a more appropriate reply.

Hola Hoko, it's Strider, good to see you here writing guides.
