Sorry, everyone.  Just as Likwid posted earlier, summers are very busy here.  We have family plans this weekend, so Van and I will not be available for this weekend's raid.

Van and I are holding off on signing up for this weekend, because we may or may not be out of town.  We should know by Friday night.  Summer is always the busiest time of year for us.

To me a guild is a community - a group of people.

Leaving the guild is leaving the "community".  Whenever someone leaves a guild, they have their reasons.  Whether anyone still in the guild thinks that person is right or wrong, what's decided and done is done.  I understand that people in the guild are trying to "set the story straight".  I believe that whenever someone leaves a guild, the guild should analyze why that happened to determine if there is something that should/should not be done to avoid future losses.  I know that happens within the leadership, and I know you can't please everyone.  The hardest thing to swallow is the number of losses we have had recently.  Yes, it makes me question what is going on.  But then I remember.

IT'S A GAME.

And I move on with playing when I want to play, enjoying the pieces of the game that I want to do within the time I choose to insert into my REAL life.

They left FA. They left me. They left you. Denial will only take you so far

I interpret that statement to mean that I should take it personally.  I don't take it personally, and I don't appreciate what I read as an attempt at getting in the last word with a backhanded negative statement when you say yourself

everyone on all sides please stop with the negativity

But, I'll rack that up to you are human.  We are all human.  Sometimes people get frustrated to the point of rage quitting.  That doesn't belittle the fact that a guildie was unhappy enough to leave.  

I don't see any difference between playing with an ex-guildie or PUG or non-guildie friend or relative.  So yes, I do plan on playing with Ex if I come across him in SWTOR.  Playing with Ex added to my game enjoyment, so I don't plan to sacrifice that.

IT'S A GAME.

The most frustrating part of all of this is that the guild quits like this always seem to end in a "who can piss the farthest" match, and I feel like I'm stuck in the middle getting pissed on.  Then I remind myself.

IT'S A GAME.

And I get on with my life.

Heh.  Yeah, buddy.

Welcome you are.
Yeah.  That was dorky.

To access the Mount/Vehicle achivements, you need to pick them up from a mission terminal right next door to the Guild Bank (the same place where you buy speeders on the fleet).

Tbone:  I see you posted a request for the schematic for Fortified Lacqerous Leggings (& chest).  I can make the orange Fortified Lacqerous Leggings, I just need the mats.
