The other option is not to engage, if there going to try and goat us in to a response, I'd rather not give them any.

Re: Mattachine Fleet?

Alright guys, Mattachine fleet used to be called TMT. When I started looking for an LGBT Fleet I found Stonewall and TMT, and really the deciding factor was I liked Stonewalls website better.

When I first joined Stonewall we had just done a Fleet vs Fleet event-which I enjoyed. I suggested that we should do an event with TMT.

I was literally told (i dont remember who said it, as it was so long ago) to Shut up, not to bring TMT up-ever again or else. This is the truth. It took me becoming an Officer before I brought it up again.

I do not believe in secrets, however I do not believe that im in a position to explain the past. Suffice it to say that even new people in Mattachine go out of their way to provoke us, this I have experienced first hand.

Its sad, it sucks, and blows. I would love for our two fleets to atleast "not be openly hostile" but I know our officers have reached out to them, but someone was burned so badly so long ago that we get nothing except contempt.

Im sorry you experienced this, there are so few places for LGBTQIA's to feel like they belong that the 2 main fleets for us not getting along just hurts my heart.

My best advice is to just be cordial and sweet and do not react negatively if you possibly can-eventually it is my greatest goal to see our two fleets amicable to each other.
thankx,
Caleb

I'm sorry you have had an unpleasant experience with a member of Mattachine Fleet and you did the right thing not replying as you're probably not going to get anywhere.

I won't bore you with the long story (one of the other officers might be willing to fill you in) but basically a long time ago a few of our members split off after a disagreement. They formed a Fleet called TMT Fleet and has since changed names to the Mattachine Fleet.

I don't know the person in question and I have no idea if he was a member of Stonewall but, as I understand it, every attempt to bridge the gap between fleets has been rejected.

Probably best just to let it go and continue saving the federation.

It took place in a PUG, Cure Space to be exact. While he did successfully start a fight with another member of the PUG I stayed out of it, and then he just randomly said at the end of the group something to the effect of "Good Job everyone, even the Stonewaller". I asked him what that meant. He then said it was "Sarcasim" (sic,). After I asked him what I did to him, and telling him to at least spell his insult correctly, he said that Stonewallers are all alike, rude as hell, and can't take a joke. I didn't reply to that as he obviously was a bit irrational, but just found it curious that he felt the need to troll a fight with someone who literally couldn't have been nicer during the PUG.

What kind of potshots are we talking about (no need to repeat them of course)? I have never heard of him, but that is just because I am still new.

Did he just randomly come up to you in-game and start talking to you or were you in a PUG for STF?

Mattachine Fleet?

January 25 2012
Had a run-in today with an extremely testy, and rude, player named Sable from the Mattachine Fleet. He took a couple of potshots about us "Stonewallers", totally unprovoked I might add, that suggest a history. Is he a disgruntled former member or something?

Time to start farming level 50 flashpoints and operations for the mats required for the purplz gear, like the Rakata armor set.

The Stonewall Council is not affiliated with us in any capacity.

The only guilds which currently belong to us are the Knights of Stonewall, Soldiers of Stonewall and the Lords of Stonewall.

Stonewall Council??

January 25 2012
Hi,

I looked through the threads here *my searching skills can be weak* and didn't see any mention of it. I ask because after being on the swtor site there is a group called Stonewall Council that is 18+ recruiting and the post was by a member from here. Is this another sub group or a break off guild?

Re: PVP.

January 25 2012
friday evening, the 27th, i want to tentatively try to get a few people and mess around with grouping for pvp. if anyone is interested let me know, and let me know what times are best for you.

for now, i have stopped leveling my main toon Hilt, so that i can pvp through the 40s and not get stuck in the 50 bracket yet, until then i will probably focus mainly on leveling my sawbones and sage. for pvp times i will jump to hilt.

Thanks. I know I have some problems with my companions with my Smuggler who are less than moral, but nothing too serious. I can imagine that Kira would hate me completely if I fell to the dark side. I wish they would implement it that she would fall with you.

Kira's hatred for me was one of the reasons I shelved my dark side Jedi Knight. I had to spend a lot of credits on gifts just to get back into the plus side of things.

With that said I love my re rolled Jedi Knight who is all light side. My companions all love me know and Kira likes me so much now that i'm light we went back to Nar Shaddaa and helped out some of her former "friends".

I'm not sure how dark side or light side is going to effect my Empire side toons but then I've just started playing them as well. Should be interesting.

I will be doing this with each one of my characters from now on. I love this idea. I'll post the first shots of my Bounty hunter as soon as I have 2 great shots of him while leveling.

(Why can't the normal in game graphics look as good as the cutscene graphics?


I haven't noticed in a change from cutscene to normal but I have also tweaked my file settings and graphics card settings for the game.


I don't know how to change it, but there is a huge visible change between cutscene texture quality and in game texture quality. As an example, I saw a cyborg character who had their cybernetics extending to the back of their head. I'm sure it looks good in cutscenes, but in game it was a bunch of jagged squiggles on the back of their head. It looked awful. If you know how to fix that (I've got all of my in game graphics settings maxed. I've got a GTX 570) I'd be very grateful.

Re: To Fall or not to Fall...

I was playing my Jedi Knight and making all dark choices. I eventually stopped playing them at lvl 22. The story line didn't change but again I was only lvl 22.

The reason I stopped playing him and created a new JK and went all Light side was due to the issues with my companions. The only way I could keep the affection pts in the plus was to buy them gifts. That became expensive.

I know others have had better luck so hopefully they will chime in.

To Fall or not to Fall...

January 25 2012
As anyone who has played a Sith can attest it is easy to take the dark side choices because it is expected of a sith to be unforgiving, but what of being Jedi. Currently I am debating whether or not to make my Jedi fall to the dark side or not. I have a Smuggler who is all light side and while that may be nice to be a goody goody Smuggler it doesn't have the same impact that a dark Jedi has.

Has anyone rolled a dark Jedi and if so how are you liking the story changes, if there are any?
