coverts give FRS xp. So there definitely was at LEAST 1 change.






Good call!


I doubt all the jedi that hopped onto the jedi forums after server-up all decided to fabricate the story that they suddenly were taking nearly 2x the damage they were before the patch. I wish they'd just make the nerf public. It's like tearing off a bandaid, it'll be painful and we might punch someone in the face, but at least it'll be over with.

One problem with this Idea you can't have an action if the BUYER can't respond.

Sorry about the Font size but wanted to make shure this guy could read it.


Now a good idea would be to alow merchants to be able AND the only ones able to change the Color/boldness of there chat text in this window. Also I have not been in yet so I don't know how it works but is there a way to keep people from "Chating" via Macro in the acction room. this would avoid to a Point Spamers as you would acually have to atleast copy and past or ctrl +uparrow everytime you wanted to spam a advertizment. I mean now everyone can have a SPAM micro running and play the game at the same time. This now also kills most of the limited usefullness of the Merchant Barker Mod(when it works) as you can now run an add Galixy wide without giving up any game time.

TH says no changes to Jedi but on the main swg page it says: "Two new chat channels, profession enhancements, and Jedi revamps are only a few of the Publish 9.1 updates."

Which one is correct?



Resi - Rebel Ace, Elder Jedi
Thirge - Imperial Ace, Spy

There seems to be cross server chat now. If you go to the Intrepid OG channel you will see that there are people from Corbanis in it.


1) Was this intended?

2) If so how does one join a channel on another server?

3) If not, fix it, it's confusing.

Every time i hit a loading screen (change planet, shuttle) any chat channel i've one created gets remade. If i then delete the chat channels then the tabs, next loading screen causes them to duplicate once more, it gets rather frustrating.

The auction channel is pretty useless until you can shift-click or drag the item you want to sell to the channel so everyone can see all the stats. This feature is only in about every other MMO out there....

Absolutely no changes were made to Jedi in 9.1...


Coverts giving xp can be a change in the PvP or XP systems.


Not being able to medite while force meditation is a change with TKA.



Not a Lie, and technicality!

For future refference:

LIST ANY AND ALL FIXES IN THE PATCH NOTES REGARDLESS OF WHAT THEY ARE

This would look much better on your behalf and show that there is more work being done on this game rather than just the notabale changes that appear major. Remember math class in high school and show all your work. Less people would cry about not recieving fixes if they were ALL listed.

Yeah, I don't feel very related to. Either the SWG front page is a downright lie or TH is confused about this. It doesn't seem like they'd post something on the front page unless it were at least marginally related to the truth. And since we know for a fact that there were changes to jedi, at least in terms of the FRS xp, I have to doubt our new Customer Relations Manager on this one.


TH is a good guy though so it pains me to see folks accuse him of lying. Someone lies to him and he passes it on in good faith. The everpresent curse of the middle-man.


So go take a tack-hammer to whomever told you there were no jedi changes.

Chat channels are persisting a little too long.
I'm auto joining one I created a couple of weeks ago and despite leaving it and/or deleting the room from the chat channels it's still coming back every time I zone or relog.
Just that one channel - it was a testing channel that only I was ever on. Other old channels that had multiple people on them didn't pop back up (yet).

Yeah, I've been working with the guys since this morning.





This was noticed on Test Center days ago. I am curious how so many bugs that are noticed by Test Center players make it to the live servers.

We really need a better mechanism for raising issues so that the right Developers assimilate them and get them addressed. It is rather discouraging when bugs known to the Test Center community continue to pass to live.

Any word on the wook armor. This was a 9.1 patch...but I havent seen anything official saying it was bumped back. Obviously it is coming later then 9.1 ....but what should we be expecting on this one?
