I'm starting Sith but I may go Republic later. (Probably Smuggler. Or Trooper, "..it's a frickin' minigun!")
I digress. When I project into characters I want to help people...by killing slightly worse people. So being a Sith and channeling that anger into killing said slightly worse people will be deviously enjoyable (don't judge me :whistle: ).

Hey folks. I signed up early in the year but haven't been back since then. Been beta testing and loving the game. I preordered and Im looking forward to December. Now I'm at the point where Im deciding what to do guild wise and such as many of my WOW friends are being very stubborn about joining the game. I'm looking to make some new friends here. In addition, maybe a couple that want to level up one or two toons with me. Since Im in Los Angeles and work M-F from around 9-6 and have the gym or tennis right after that, Im looking for someone who wants to game around 9:00PM Pacific Time and sometimes on either day of the weekend. Id prefer someone to game with that is mature and not looking to power level. Someone who is not high strung either and isn't afraid to sometimes try the PVP scenarious or PVP Lakes even though we will be on a PVE Server. Most of the time, I prefer PVE but I need my PVP fix too :-). If any of you are interested, let me know. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. :-).

Hey man,
I'm over here in Singapore with a flexible work schedule... 9pm for you would be around 1pm for me, and I wouldn't mind someone to hang with after the rest of US has gone to bed haha...

I've played WOW previously as well and since my guidmates won't be coming over, I'm on my own as well and looking for new gaming buddies... Used to PvP extensively in WOW and would be open to experiencing that again... At least, to dabble in it heh...

Cheers!

Hey, thanks for responding. I'm more of a PVE guy, I just like to be able to do some PVP as well because it keeps things interesting when you are playing different playstyles. I just don't want to disappoint you if you are expecting PVP to be the primary with PVE the secondary. For me its the other way around, but I need both. So yea, if you are interested in giving it a go, Id be up to trying it with you. How do I reach you so we can figure out how to coordinate this when release gets closer? The only negative about being in another country is that I can't just text you and say, hey, Im going into the game now are you free tonight? lol. Each text would cost money :-). Maybe you have an iphone or ipad with facetime? lol

Oh... don't get me wrong, I much prefer the PvE game as well... In fact, I foresee spending most of my time finishing every damned quest (I'm a completionist)...
Just like you, would like to explore some PvP from time to time, but it's something I would do more as a "hobby" or to "shake things up a bit"...
I have an iphone AND and ipad so you can always Whatsapp me, probably the best way to keep in touch... I also typically spend a lot of time on vent if there's people there to chat with... I'm not overly talkative tho, just nice to say things like "hey man, it's over here" or "help I'm dying!" rather than type it out...
Just go ahead and send me a private message and I'll send ya my phone number so you can add me to your list :)

I'll be likewise going the Smuggler Scoundrel route for my main. Healers were definitely in demand this past weekend, especially for Heroic quests.

My 2nd alt will be a Miraluka Jedi Sentinel. I rolled one up and he was fantastic. The sight (no pun intended) of a hunky young Jedi Knight without sight using dual light sabers in combat was sheer poetry. *swooooon*

I've done some endgame raiding in WoW as a tank, and (upon finding a class that I enjoy), I'd love to do some endgame content with you guys.
My schedule is admittedly terrible though, so that's always an issue with me (plus schoolwork!) :( As long as it's casual raiding. Hardcore raiding is impossible for me :P

LOL - same here. I was hoping someone forgot to turn on the "block weekend testers" switch. :lol:

I was disappointed that I didn't get a chance to run around with some Stonewallers during the test, but it's just as well. I'm usually on the slow track when it comes to learning new mmo UI's so it was like the first day of school for me. At least I'll have some semblance of knowing what to do when the game goes live, though!

In most cases i have to try to be evil to get the dark side points. I have to hover over answers to see what will get me dark/light points.

This past beta I went Jedi knight on the dark side and I must have inner evil thoughts cause most of what I would choose was dark side points.

but back on track for teh topic. I'll be playing a Sith Inquisitor at some point as they are very fun to play.

Just my nickle and dime on the West Coast server.

I live in Wasington DC and I've always played on a West Coast Server in WoW and Rift. There was never an issue with the server time, we always formed grps up for instances and raids with folks from all different time zones joining in.

As Halish said try not to focus on the "west coast server" verbiage. We will have plenty of events running that everyone can join no matter there time zone.

We are just 2 and a half weeks away! Woot!

(I tried logging into SW tonite but it wouldn't let me in, those meanies)

I played a Paladin tank in WoW, so I'm thinking Sith Warrior Juggernaut to start. Alts/mains-if-that-doesn't-work-out: IA/BH dps.

So my friend Derek asked me very kindly to try to reserve the name he would like since I will have early access and (even though he preordered) he won't because gamestop didn't have any preorder codes to give out.

It made me think about others wanting the same thing.

Perhaps, not only as a guild, but as a group of very close friends, we could do the same thing for each other. :)

In this thread we could post a name that we would like to reserve, just in case someone can get into the server early early early and grab it up for us. In the first post, we could have users and name(s) they'd like to reserve; then, once the game is launched, anyone who can grab the name could either PM them here in the forums or post to say it's been reserved for them. :)

What does everyone think? :)

I'm feeling you about wanting to have a regular partner with whom you can play and level. I, very luckily, have a very close friend who not only shares my playstyle, but also my tendency to just f*** off and explore a bit because my ADHD kicked in and I saw something shiny I wanted to examine, even though it's way off track. xD

We used to play SWG together and leveled SO slowly because we kept exploring the zones and looking for really spiffy things. (Like fossils hidden beneath the ground that could only be revealed by setting down a camp site to flatten the terrain). Eventually we did decide to grind out a few levels so we could explore the higher level worlds without being harassed. xD

The cool thing about my friend Derek is that we would really only play when the other was available to play in SWG so we wouldn't outlevel each other and make it difficult to play together. Not a big deal in games like CoH and STO, but in SWG and now in SWTOR there is no mentoring feature, so it's back to only playing when each other are available.

Of course we've decided to have other toons that we can play solo so if one of us just isn't available, we aren't just stuck with nothing to do.

And um... Yeah, just listening to an 80s playlist and rambling for no real reason. xD I'm glad you found a partner that can play in your timeslot. ^.^ Plus, now you always have someone with whom you can do heroic 2+ missions without worrying about standing around looking for others. :)

Thanks for the explanation, Halish. I didn't take into consideration cross-server communication, or the lack thereof.

As for number of East Coast/West Coast players, I truly expect Stonewall's numbers to explode once the game goes live so finding guildies to group up with shouldn't be a problem.

Lastly, in my opinion an overflow guild for Stonewall is a given. From personal experience I will stay with my first choice of Smuggler as my main, but I really enjoyed the Jedi Knight class! :)

This isn't necessarily completely accurate (as it says on the site) because some stuff has been changing, but it can give you a head start if you want to look at your options in the skill trees..

Thanks Halish! I'll give it a try.

Deep Space Stonewall wasn't a back-up guild. It was a guild for our Alts and was required simply because we would have hit the character limit (think it's 500?) and then some.

If the same fate hits Knights of Stonewall we'd have to create an over-flow guild on the same server. There isn't any cross-server communication and creating an overflow guild on a separate server would segregate the community and we wouldn't be as effective. For example, say I have my main character in the west coast whos in the main guild but I'm currently playing in the east coast "alt" guild. Someone wants to run a dungeon run on the west coast and has a space perfectly sized for me but they have no way of asking me to help because I'm a completely different server.

I'd like you all to try and look past the "official" server location and think of it as a "worldwide" server because that's what It's going to be, just like Stonewall Fleet on Star Trek Online.

Just my 2 cents here...

While the "official" guild server will be on a West Coast PvE server, are there any rules against setting up a backup guild? It was done on STO with "Deep Space Stonewall" so perhaps an option would be to set up a sister guild on an East Coast server.

That being said, I'm in Florida but I'm sure that should we decide to stay with one server there will be plenty of "easties" on to group up with.

In most cases i have to try to be evil to get the dark side points. I have to hover over answers to see what will get me dark/light points.

I thought it was just my system.

Enjoy!

Quote by SorenStarkiller

There must be something wrong with me because I can not bring myself to make dark side choices, or even to play as a Sith. If I played as an Emprire toon I would be a good Bounty Hunter.

You know it's funny I had a similar issue, playing a male Sith toon I projected myself into the character and couldn't bring myself to be evil. Was sparing people left and right.

But then this weekend I made a female Sith Inquisitor and loved being evil and frying inferior pathetic whelps with my lightning. Mwahahaha!

So yeah, guess I'm weird. lol
