That might be enough to get me to reactivate my account. Then again, I got my copy of Battlefield 2 last night and it's addictive as hell!!! I'm going to lose many good nights of sleep to that game...

Tell you what, if you pay my monthly fee for SWG and go harass a few people for me, I'd consider it. (In all honesty, I miss the people more than the game) Until then, the killing fields of Battlefield 2 will occupy my time.

Killing people in a virtual world is a great way to relieve stress... Especially with ragdoll physics... Hehehe...

Muhahaha...

OK, time to go blow some sh!t up!!! :twisted:

Kinda off topic, but I made a pilgrimage to Nar Shadaa (never been there for a while), and it's still standing at rank 2. Cantina, garage, guild hall, base, and bank still there. Plus some trainers and mission terminals :lol:

I can post some pics of it if you want to see.

That's sad considering I haven't played in at least 2 months. Am I still listed as mayor??? Maybe someone else decided to take the job and is keeping the city at its level???

That's pretty sad. Just goes to show how broken parts of the game are.

Not sure if it's broken, it did lower in rank afterall. I think it's just taking a while to decay, and plus, it is collecting taxes, no matter how slow.

True, but still....

Then again, the devs broke the decay rate when they got rid of decay... So, who knows how long Shadda will actually be around???

Regarding the topic of capitol ships, technically flyable capitol ships are already in JTL. Anything over 100 meters qualifies as a capitol ship. The Y8-Mining Ship is is 115 meters. So the Y8-Mining Ship technically qualifies as a capitol ship.

Yes, but capitol ships usually have a crew of more than one.

Yeah, but the Y-8 is pretty difficult to operate alone. Pretty much impossible to mine by yourself in that ship. You'll need to bring some friends along to man each mining turret. Also, the Correllia Corvette qualifies as a capitol ship, and it doesn't require much more people to oeprate.
