I unlocked before publish 9. I want my main to become fs. he's now just "faint sense" but he has most of the badges (all the jedi ones, and 25+ prof, and quests, alcolade, jabaa, etc.) is the system messed up? on TC2 it showed me as glowing... I think somehow I'm screwed... please let me know if you can help out

I have done the Badges thing and was glowing. When Pub10 came out, I had only a "Faint of the Force" andwas pretty much feeling down, because I had done almost all POI Badges and all Theme Parks. Finished the Warren (after Pub 10 came out) and became immediatly glowing.


Did some walk around and read the board yesterday. Did complain a little. Whined a bit. Canceled my Account and so on. Hm.


Did my all Professions the Holo told me and gave up then. I have a total of 10 Professions Mastered and less than 75 Badges. I am waiting now for the Sith, right? I get back later to complain, where the Sith are. Hm. Sorry about this lame english, come from germany.






Can you explain your system again TH?

TWO DAYS AND NO VISIT FROM THE OLD MAN. I cant believe i pay for the game. WHERE is the post from the DEVS TELLING US GATE 1 is done.Starting Gate 2. DEVS give us no hope and you are here to post for US the gamer. Not some coffee getting peon, no YOU THumder. IF i did my job like some of you DEVS, there would be a TON of people going to jail scratching thier head. OPPS i forgot to update them on whats going on. Yes, I am a COP in RL, atleast i tell the public what the hell is going on and where they stand. They may not like the news but they ARE INFORMED.


1) The switch from 5 to 8 professions, man what a bend me over.. 2) I want my SOE bent me over Badge. You try to play by the RULES they define only to be slapped with a "ooooh by the way, we changed the required profession number and forgot to tell ya". I am glowie and think the gating system is a way in which SOE was answered the problem to thier servers not be able to handle the stress. I can wait my turn to get into an area I pay $15 dollars a month and earned the right to enter before pub 10 hit, just not happy about it. But with the current track record of bend me overs and combat revamp. profession fix push backs, I dont know how much long i can continue to pay $15 x4 to inflict mental anguish upon myself.

I got a visit which surprised me as the character was definitely not (if I understand what was posted by TH correctly because this char only mastered 3 professions total) in the 1 - 3 days category. My other character who I would have expected to be in the 1 - 3 days group still hasnt got a visit. This isnt a whime it would just be nice if things worked as stated.




HA HAH my gawd yesterday i had to try an dconvince the people who qualifie dunder the new system they would not have to wait untilafter the post-9 unlockers... now its seems no-one can read the second part of his post. yeesh. if you unlocked post-9 OLDMAN will come. Go read it again and sllloooowwwyy this time, maybe many times.

Umm, could you reference the post where the Devs said that it will take 5 professions to unlock? Please? Pretty please?


You know what, THERE IS NO SUCH POST, nor such statement from the Devs that it will take 5 to unlock.


They have ALWAYS kept their mouths shut regarding the mechanism to unlock. Because of this, they have EVERY RIGHT to change the unlocking mechanism as they see fit.

We understand he WILL come, the problem is he was not supposed to come for those who were not glowy when Pub 10 was released. Well not until after the Old Man visited everyone else.

The Old Man seems to be visiting non-Unlockers that have the "Glowing"status but is not visiting People that did unlock Prior to publish 10, even if we have "Glowing" status. Ive been checking the forums and with people on my server and this seems to be what is happening.


Please make it so at the very least the people thta have already unlocked get an Old Man visit imediately when leaving a city area. Or just mark them as eligible for entering the village and give them the crystal.

They're running an MMORPG. Communication with players is vital for a healthy online game.


And it doesn't matter who's responsibility it is, the fact is we've been screwed over because of their penchant for being economical with the truth.

Heyas gang

When I logged in the morning of the patch I did /check and I was a Glower. Today at 4:44 pm EST NW of Mos Eisley the Old Man came to me while I was fighting some akuans or whatever they are called. He autofollowed me til I finished fighting them then I did that talk tree and got my crystal!

I was not a holo-grinder. The only Holo I did was master Chef, and that's only because I wanted to. I DID do all Theme Parks, have all POI's and total 78 Badges, 5 Master Class's.

Oh I am on Chilastra server.

Hope this helps everyone get less antsy )


Also my girlfriend made Glowey AFTER Patch 10, and she would like to know if anyone that also made Post Ten Glowey has been visited by Old Man?
