Star Wars: The Old Republic / Ranked WZ and LFG Tool Coming in 1.3

Some interesting stuff in there, posting in an effort to tempt you guys back into joining me in a galaxy far, far away.

Also, prospective server transfers to form 'super-server' with loads of people on. If they can pull it off, it will be good.

In addition, for those instanced PvP haters amongst us, The Farstar Alliance are organising an open world PvP battle against Twisted Dawn in Outlaw's Den on Tatooine, if you fancy a bit of PvP action.

A scanner Darkly : such an underrated film

I shall have to remedy this.

They've been trying to invite me to the closed beta for months.

I said no.

New Rakghoul Outbreak event is awesome.

For those who still have it installed, but haven't tried it, give it a go! Starts on Tatooine, North of the Dune Sea outpost for Republic.

I find it interesting that they send active subscribers a free month and people that actually cancelled get nothing so far. Not even an 'Hey we've updated a lot of shit, try us again for a weekend for free' thing.

Pretty sure they've started a free week now. Try logging in.

I'm liking it so far, as I'm not jaded and bitter like you lot!

Whelp, at the end of the day, I'm not fussed what we call the new guild. Farstar is fine, as is The Farstar Alliance.

However, we have two other guilds to think about, and two other GM's, so its important the new name sits well with them also.

Both Aet and Xini agreed last night that they preferred guild names with more than just one word, so The Farstar Alliance was suggested.

We've just created <The Farstar Alliance> to hold the name.

I've been chatting with Aet and Xini tonight, and the consensus of opinion is that 'Farstar' is quite short as guild names go, and would like something a little longer.

So, <The Farstar Alliance> has been suggested, with the option of having <The Farstar Conspiracy> for the Empire side.

I think this works with the new site, as farstarguild.co.uk can apply to both names. Also, it's an easy task to recreate the guild in game to <The Farstar Alliance>.

Not to get to far ahead of ourselves, but both Xini and Aet have expressed a desire to not be the new GM. I've spoken to Mangala, and he is happy for me to take on the roll of GM of Farstar.

Post your suggestions for the new merged guilds name in here. Mine are:

Antarian Rangers
Farstar
The Farstar Alliance

Farstar was mentioned in TJA last night, and everyone seemed to think it would be an awesome name, as quite a few of us played on that server in SWG.

Personally, I'm waiting for a blue response.

Like this?

The lowest I would go for age restrictions is 18+. I'd be happier with 21+ though.

Had a nice chat with Aet from TLA earlier this evening.

He's very pro guild merge, but has a couple of requirements, namely:

We only recruit 25+ new members (doesn't apply to any existing members below this age limit).

We only recruit 'nice' people, and have a reasonably robust application process.

I'm ok with the above, but what are your thoughts?
