I... don't drink, usually. For a long time I was completely tee-total. Never touched a drop. I had other things to spend my money on. Since I've got older, and slightly more cynical, I drink at social events, but usually stick to whisky (not overly f...  [Read More]

I've kind of enjoyed this week, but that might be because it's my first proper week in my new job teaching adults. I just about survived, and they kept coming back day after day, so I must be doing something right. :) No rest for the wicked, however...  [Read More]

I promised myself I wouldn't get involved as it's not for us Johnny Foreigners to tell you how to solve the 'problem' of guns and gun control - though to me it seems the recent cases are more a failing of a woeful lack of intervention on the part of...  [Read More]

Just me, but I think that assuming these new movies will be set not a long period of time after ROTJ (i.e, while the gang's in-universe is still young enough to be having adventures like in the EU books), they should just recast them. I mean, they di...  [Read More]

Ok, so I've really enjoyed the game so far, up until last night when I hit what seems to be a brick wall. I'm a level 24 Marauder (using the carnage tree), and I've been given the quest 'A Threat Leveled' (Level 24 quest) by Darth Baras. So, I head...  [Read More]

There's very little you can do to grief players in PvE, or at least I haven't encountered much. The only real jackass tactic is to loiter around areas with security chests or missions that require you to collect/destroy 'x' (x, for instance, on Alde...  [Read More]
