Right now is a good time to hop back in for a bit, servers are busy as hell with the merges. Guessing that'll slow down within the next few months.

Seeing somebody post here with a big red title about some forums beef just reminds me... Back in the day when this game was new, some anonymous goon really hated my posts about it for reasons I could not figure out. Like I wasn't getting into nasty arguments with people or saying inflammatory things. My posts were usually pretty positive, because I always liked this game. But somebody hated my posts about it enough to shell out for big red titles for me on two occasions, calling me a "poo poo poster." What they didn't know is, my brother was an admin and would just change it back for me for free, so that was a hilarious waste of that person's time and money. That's ultimately how I landed on my current "won't shut up about Star Wars" avatar, though. I figured whoever the hater was, it was something we could agree on. And hey, it seemed to work, it's stuck for like five years now!

I hate this question because of how often the answer is upsetting, but.

What's the most recent Operation they've added? Any new 8/16 mans?

Gods from the Machine is the newest operation based on Iokath. The bosses are being added gradually: Tyth was in 5.2, Aivela and Esne in 5.3, and Nahut should be in the upcoming patch.

Before Gods, was the last one Ravagers/ToS? That's...a while.

gently caress, a new Operation might be enough to pull me back in.

Yup, with 4.0 they decided to go for single player, no raids.

I logged on yesterday, and some people had fancy new gold circular icons by their names. I think I saw a "III" and a "IV", and something else I wasn't sure about. What's that mean? Suddenly my "Legendary player" status doesn't feel so shiny. :mad:

The ones with roman numerals are flairs you automatically get when you get to the appropriate command rank. Other than those and the legendary flair you can also get cartel market ones: https://torf.mmo-fashion.com/category/database/item-types/flair/

My favorite is the flair of agony because it looks like a pair of underpants.

It's Flair. Legendary was the first one, then there's I-IV for Galactic Command Tier 1-4, and then there's ~6 or 7 you can get from the Cartel Market. Things like the "Sign of Havoc" and "Sign of Carnage" and "Sign of Opened Up My Eyes"

heh I'm just the opposite I've got absolutely no problem deleting any character except my Shadow and Sorc who are my title/pet/etc whores.

I've always had a handful of PvP chars otherwise just delete 'em when they get to max lvl and start again. I've slowed down in 5.0 though since I don't want to delete GC 300 chars and lowbie PvP is dead. I've now got 12 chars at GC 300 with 4 more to go to have one of each AC both Imp and Pub.

Also you forgot the Ranked flairs. :heysexy:

It's especially bad because I was playing with some people on Shadowlands off and on since TNG has been largely dead, so I had 3 or 4 characters that were exact duplicates of my characters on JC (same names, look, etc). Now with the merges I have quite a few characters there's no need to use at all anymore. I think I'm going to shuffle the clones off to Hot Satele while transfers are cheap, I have a few friends that play off and on there.

lol the Mara I'm lvling now I've deleted and restarted twice now when he was above lvl 40. The first time I wanted to change his look and the second I wanted to change my decision to spare Yonlach on Tatooine.

Of course it helps that I absolutely love the Warrior story...it's like a classic movie I can watch over and over.

I had three or four copies of several characters. Some were placeholders on other servers to safeguard names in case of mergers or transfers. Some I leveled up on other servers to get more DvL bonuses. I deleted the mostly unplayed low-level ones after the big merge, but I still have doubles or triples of some people.

I tend to put it on my characters at Level 1 until I start getting other titles. For some characters this comes pretty quickly. For others... not so much

I use it from time to time. Yesterday on my PvP character I went with non threatening "worm food" and "scare bear ". I have no memory of where that legacy title came from though.

Scare Bear is for killing a ton of people on Oricon open world PVP. Worm Food is from falling into a Sarlacc Pit

Not really, but there are some companions that take them even when not romanced (Talos is one of them I think)

Oh, heh. So much for "non threatening". That must have been when it first came out and our guild was grinding the achievements for killing faction base guards, etc. I remembered worm food well enough.
