Ibring this up because of the very successful wookiee armor protest, the wookiees got exactly what they wanted there very own armor.


This has probably been brought up before but it sounds like fun.


We pick a server; a city and a time have the DE’s on that server make a ton of MSE droids. Why MSE droids? There cheap, novices can make them and there funny looking.


What I envision is a city like bestine or cornett infested with MSE droids on patrol.
We just need a ton of MSE droids on the bazaar that we can buy with our starting cash.
I think you can start the patrol and logout.


What do you think? If you’re worried about interrupting game play on a main server the test server would be just as good just harder to find DE’s.

What if we got a bunch of wookiees with mouse droids and some droid lubricant, and had a cage match?


/end sarcasm


Protests are a bad idea, no matter how you go about it. They can potentially ruin other players' fun with all the lag, etc., that they can cause.

Your sentiment is in the right place, but you fail to understand that the game is not a democracy. Its not even a beneovlent dictatorship. The developers will change what they want to, those who do not like it will go elsewhere. Those who do like it will play and be content.

Besides, if the past few months have taught me anything, the DE community doesn't even know what it wants. It helps to have an alternative solution if you're gonna protest for it.

Good Point Ashlish, we should try to focus on what we want rather than complaining about what we dont like. However, i have to say until TK brought me back down to reality, i really thought it would be a great sight to see an MSEinfestation in C-Net .

Just so you're aware...

I've seen past 'movements' such as this lead to bannings. And, it won't actually have the affect that you're after. I sympathize with the sentiment that leads you to suggest this...but it won't do what you think it will.

In addition, if you did this on TC, part of me thinks that the Dark Jedi Master I've met on TC would show up and lay waste and laugh (if for no other reason than...well, he's Dark. That's the kind of stuff they do).

By the way, he can block all ranged blaster/rifle/pistol attacks. Every one. It's pretty scary to watch...



Give it some time (and give me a chance to dig in)....

Respectfully,








Ban me! I'm not afraid only thing i will miss is the experimenting in the crafting system. if i want to mindlessly kill things i would go back to DAOC there PVP was alot beter too

how could a dark jedi kill me? is there a jedi skill for bending the pvp rules in the game?
if so i really want to be a pk jedi that was the funniest part of UO hunter as well as hunted.

lets put it this way I'm getting ready to quit SWG's I'm giving them till WOW is on the shelves to fix it.

things I want to do in swg

Make a droidaca (i have no idea how to spell it) - probably will never happen
build a walker thingy and or drive one - i can own one but what fun is that
make Bio engender pets and play god - about all thats still fun
colect useless junk - i have over 100 now
Make a short, female, bothan, Jedi named "ima Jawa" with a brown healers robe. - on the silent holo grind 21 and counting
own a pet ewok - name it "wookieeboy" -cant have a pet ewok
slap vader in the face - done i hugged the emperor too
mayor of my own city - done but my friends all have moved on
be a fat wookiee dancer - done (with a chef hat to boot)
live naked in the jungle never going to town for supplies. - not really possible

I dont make fun of people who cant spell im no hiporcritte!

Lol I'm not for any protest but this would look awesome and kinda funny either.


Even it would add a lot of SW felling in this game


Well can I have some of what you smoked...
