I dabbled with raiding in LOTRO, and kinda made it a weekly thing in Age of Conan. The only thing I absolutely hated was the dice-rolling for needed gear.

My die rolls sucked. I mean, really, Really, REALLY sucked. :(

Classic example: Age of Conan. I played a barbarian. Barbarian chest piece dropped as loot. in a full raid of 24, there were only two barbs. The other barb rolled a 15.

I rolled a 13. :angry:

I needed 2 pieces to finish the set. I never got them, even after a year of weekly raiding. I gave up shortly before my yearly sub expired.

That being said, I nevertheless want to give TOR's raiding a try. I seem to have read that everyone in the raid will get something, which I totally agree with. Nothing is worse than busting your glutes for 2 hours beating mega-bosses and walking away empty-handed.

Bioware is GLBT friendly. From chit chatting with a few "people " during beta. There are a few gay/lesbian devs and a GLBT friendly environment at Bioware. I named a toon Jack Twist. That got me some attention, and whispers / tells. He was my Brokeback Jedi. Tall blonde, went swimming alot on Tython...

Instead of serving drinks, the bar served "nutrient chemicals" to its clientèle, who paid large sums of credits for the privilege.

I am most likely going to have a TK Sage as my main BUT...I may wind up levleling up a tank or a healer in order to be raid viable/valuable. I'll have to wait and see what the guild roster is looking like as we get closer to that point..

Read more of the description of that Cantina... I have a hard time imaginging that this was a fluke! Rooms with different colors...

The Jekk'Jekk Tarr was divided into five sections, each lit with a different light that represents the environment it simulates. Upon entering, a customer would arrive at the infrared chamber, which was lit with a red light. This area was favored by species that could perceive the infrared, such as the Devaronians and Trandoshans. Adjacent to the west of this chamber was the yellow, arid room, designed to simulate the harsh climate of worlds such as Ryloth and Sriluur. Because of this, this chamber was frequently inhabited by Twi'leks and Weequays alike. To the east of the infrared chamber was a green room of particularly toxic gases. A second toxin room lay to the north of this, and both areas were almost entirely used by the insectoid Gand only. It was likely that the gas in these two rooms was ammonia from their home planet Gand. The fifth chamber was non-toxic and contained no harmful fumes even to Humans. It was a private lounge used by the Quarren Exchange crime lord Visquis, and thus it was locked to anybody but Visquis and his servants. In his lounge was the entrance to his secret headquarters, which contained a dimly-lit maze with lethal gases and a jamming system to insure that datapad maps were rendered useless.[1]
