Just a thought: I've seen elsewhere people used html style tags to show what would usually be expressed by a tone of voice (ex: <sarcasm></sarcasm>) It does come in handy to prevent misinterpretations, and allows you to add another dimens...  [Read More]

my tip- when being a droideka, try not to roll around too much, keep very aware of your surrondings and turn your shield on only when being fired at (it makes for a much longer lifespan)...  [Read More]
