Re: Endgame/Raiding for KOS

After 7 years of raiding in WoW my desire to raid in any mmo has greatly decreased.

I'm willing to help anyone get raid ready, we can run instances, crafting what ever you guys need to get you there. When your in the raid I'll sit on the sidelines and cheer you guys on! :)

LOL, I always loved dancing the night away to that song!

Congrats!

I think BioWare really wants me to work on my other hobbies and not MMO's. :(

Re: What's the story, if any, to your ship names?

October 04 2011
Like this thread, so here goes mine, my Characters have quite a few ships that I cant remember but my mains are as follows:

Tactical VA - Leoban (Bajoran Gay Male)
USS Ticonderoga (Galaxy X Dreadnought)
Named after the American warship

Science RA - Lexington (Human Gay Male)
USS Theia (Luna Class Variant)
Named after the theorised moon that crashed into a developing planet Earth, also one of the Greek Titans said to be the mother of the Sun, Moon and Dawn

Engineering Captain - Larson Toben (Joined Trill Gay Male)
USS Atlas (Venture Class)
Named after Atlas the Titan who supported the Heavens on his shoulders...

As you can tell I have a thing for ancient greek mythology and most of my ships are of a greek influence apart from my battle ships which are named after American and British battleships

Well I haven't gotten all the way up to end game yet so I'm naming my ships fun things as I level. For instance I got the classic Connie on my first toon and as it's supposed to be a low-level tank I had to name it the USS Johnston. No other ship in history better represents a scrappy little tank to me. Most of the rest of my ships are named in honor of Hot Shots, ie the USS You Ess Ess, or Ewe Ess Ess, or any other variant on the meme. Except for my defiant class, that's the Ramming Speed for what I hope are obvious reasons.

When I ran TOR for the first time, I had a lot of problems getting it to launch. The window would freeze and say (Not Responding) at the top and it'd get a prompt asking me to end it or wait for it to respond. I did a little checking on the testers forum and they said that the first time TOR launches, it has to check all the files and on some computers will freeze. If you leave it alone completely or keep clicking wait for the program to respond, it'll eventually come back up and launch. Hope that helps someone.

Re: What's the story, if any, to your ship names?

Depends on my Character.

My Tactical Bajoran and my Engineer Bajoran both name their ships for important "stuff" in Bajoran lore, for example my Star Cruiser Emissary is going to be the USS Benjamin Sisko ;)

My avatar in game has decided to name his ships after our Marine Corps Core values and important "stuff" in Marine Corps lore.

My Section 31 character ::redacted::

My High Elven character names his ships after, well that should be self explanatory.

My Romulan names his stuff after...wait for it....Romulan lore. ;)

My Orion names his stuff after well Piraty stuff.

My Vulcan names his ships after Vulcan stuff, kinda.

My Red Haired Irish human is TOSy.

And my Romulan on Tribble names his stuff and crew in such a manner as to blatantly let them know Rommie fans are still here and we still want our damn faction.

Some of the ship names I've used consistently:

USS Oberon: Named for the king of the faeries from one of my favorite Shakespeare plays

USS Boudica: named for the Iceni queen during the roman occupation of Britain. I've always liked the story of Boudica ever since seeing a movie about her starring Alex Kingston, dr who's river song.

I have the same problem with the current launcher. I found a work around, but going to services, stopping DNS and the DHCP services, starting the launcher up and the quickly starting the services back up when I see the launcher window pop up. Not ideal, but I get it to work. There are tons of other suggestions on the testing forums.

I got the invite but am currently unable to play as the launcher runs a ghost application in the background. It's frustrating. I'm simply waiting for Bioware to fix it.

Re: Missing Officers Roleplay Event

October 03 2011
This was a lot of fun, was a good way for me to get back into RPing. I was wondering when the event was, and if we could have it on a different day. I know of a few people that would like to do it but are busy Wednesday's, maybe more people would sign up of it was on the weekend.
