Intro: All are welcome to join us on Wanderhome. Our mission is to have a galaxy wide BE home and guild. This should not be your main character although BE's who play on Wanderhome are welcome to join our channel there (BEta) and/or guild if they should desire. This is ESPECIALLY for people who are BE's at heart forever but do not/cannot play one as their main. But current BE's are welcome too.
We strive to - play casually and occasionally - and slowly build up a a town - while not neglecting our mains. We have a mission to not disrupt the Wanderhome economy by becoming a 'factory-producing' group of expert BE's. Instead we will hang out, drink beer, eat cookies, maybe go on group DNA sampling expeditions, share resources and 'stuff'. We might do some events involving pets like races and competitions and we can test stuff as it goes live as well ...
If you arejoining us, please post your name in this thread with a short intro ...mine is below ...
Instructions to join:
1. make a character on Wanderhome
2. join the BEta channel (it's under guilds) just had to recreate it - and put it under chat. something ate the one under guilds.
3. post on this thread your intro
That's it for now. We will get a guild hall and a town when we are 'bigger'.

BEta character name on Wanderhome: Dorelli Deacon
Species/Race: Human Female (so boring)
Main character: Dorelli Deacon
Server: Bloodfin
Professions you play on main: M. Pistolleer, M. CM, M. DE, M. AS, M. Architect, M. Tailor, M. Smuggler (- 3 boxes)
Infro: I have been playing a BE since I started playing SWG in June 2004.Before that, I was guild leader to a guild in a game called Earth and Beyond which ran 2 unstable years then was pulled by Electronic Arts. So we came to SWGsince some of the gulid had arrived here already. We are still going strong on Bloodfin, with our town welcoming new people and we have lostsome of the old guild members who have moved on to other games but that is the way of gaming-life.
I became a BE as my RL and in-game husband decided he was going to be a CH and I thought it would make a nice complement. Alsoin RL I have always leaned to the sciences so it was perfect for me. Iground my way up slowly using almost no meat, and arrived at master BE in about 3-4 months if I recall. I have always tried to make the best possible pets I could, but I am always aware that other people are doing better than me. This is good because it makes me work harder.
Post-CU I tried to continue being a BE, but the pressing need to have FUN in the game, and the lack of need of pets in our town made me decide to switch my alt from BE to Armorsmith. I am enjoying that but miss BE and I am looking forward to getting to play with the other BE's as a mBE/mCH on Wanderhome and member of the BE Training Academy guild!

First not to be rude but this would fall under your server for listing or the one its for. Secondly this group sounds like the beast group for ch but only bioengineers . So i wonder will you go on strike and not make pets till your prof is fixed ? about like the strike beast did but would not train pets etc.

not really, this is a guild we are creating for BE's of all servers, we're doing this for the betterment of our proffession it's just those who have respecced out of BE are gathering on wonderhome, one of you main goals will be reasearching, testing and developing new recpipes etc and we can't do that if we're on strike

Jurston,
Yes perhaps this would best go under Wanderhome's forums but we don't really mean to disrupt the people of Wanderhome by finding a little corner of the galaxy to settle and raise our BE alts which we will play maybe 1-2 hours a week. Probably not more. We can't really go on strike since we won't be actively making pets for people buying. We don't want to take business away from the regular and very very good BE's on Wanderhome.
It's really just an idea for people who have already quit BE because of all the bugs (hence 'on strike' with their mains) to keep their foot in and have a small community and a place to hang out occasionally.
Does that make sense?
Kaomond is suggesting we take discussion of this over to his webpage and forums and I concur since it isn't really official BE stuff. Hopefully, with the expertise available, we might end up making some cool discoveries and we will be quick to post them here, but I guess general BEta discussion really doesn't belong here.
I stress again - anyone who wants to is welcome to join - even people who started being BE's yesterday. We like to help people and sometimes it is easier to show them directly. But it is probably better not to go to wanderhome JUST to be in BEta with a main because we won't be playing all that often.

Can I still come if I didn't drop MBE but went into hiding on my server while I wait for fixes?

Well, I couldn't take it any longer.
* Pet crafting complexity got a major whack of the nerf bat.
* No pet specials to make a pet special.
* Tailor tissues borked (I bought an alt just to make BE tailor clothes).
* A recpec window that popped up every 45 seconds or so.
* Many many many hard knocks taken in the pre-cu testing phases.
* BEta opened up on Wanderhome.
I had to ask myself. Am I having fun on my main toon? The answer was no. I have repec'd to TKM/MDoc and am happily killing everything in sight and rezing my friends.
Good luck everyone.
(If that invite to Wanderhome is still valid I'll bounce my way over there.)

I am so very pleased with the response thus far! Nam has even posted that it sounds like fun and he might reactivate his account!!!. Guys - Kao and I have set up some houses on Naboo - i posted about it on the SWGcreature crafter forums for BEta. Come and find us there ... well we aren't there NOW b/c we are playing our mains and in my case going to bed but you know what i mean.
