it's ok SWTOR is dying anyway
no it is not.
Have you checked the event logger? Even if there's a power cut it'll be registered in there.
yep, but I can't understand jack of what it says.
Hell check this entry:
Error: 26/5/2012 // 8:19 PM // Service Control Manager // None // 7022 // Not Available // CAMS-12BCC100F9
how on earth am I supposed to know what that gibberish means? Sure it tells me at what time the shut down happened, but other than that, I don't know what that stuff means.
Here's another one.
Error: 26/5/2012 // 8:12 PM // NTSF // Disk // 55 // Not Available // CAMS-12BCC100F9
Again, to me, it may as well be in Mandarin, I'd have about the same chances to know what does that stuff means.

/end-rant.
A guy could make a fortune in the black market there selling PCs then, huh? Maybe you and I should set up a little smuggling operation. It would be great because I would be bucking against something that is morally reprehensible, communism, and at the same time helping people. What is the prison sentence for getting caught doing something like that?

never seeing the light of day again.
I had my share of the lovely hospitality of Sabaneta, even taking a few souvenirs engraved on my chest, so I'll pass.

Smuggling is treated as seriously as killing a cop. And I exagerated with the "never see the light of day again" part, actually there is no life sentence in this country. Or death penalty. So they compensate for that by giving 10 to 20 years for even the most mundane crimes ever. The max sentence you can have is 40 years, I think.
A cousin of mine (a complete idiot who thought he could live the high life as a gansta) got a sentence of 15 years for trying to steal a car. Key word: trying.
They cattle branded your boobs? What for?
Nope, stab wound in the shoulder, and glass shard embedded on the stomach. First one on the first day, within my first 50 minutes, second one on my 7th month. For what? Racketeering.
The head honchos inside the prison charge the smaller ones a protection fee from your relatives. If no money is paid, they beat the crap out of you as a warning (or in my case, glass shard). If after the warning you still don't pay........... you get out of there in a box.
Isn't it lovely to live here?

You still live there? Why? Why not leave? If I were to stay it would be to start a revolution, either that or die.

Again, the game is not dead. Its in about the same state that Rift is in. Alarmists love to ring bells of "they sky is falling" for everything.
They did the same for wow, and look: Wow is still running.
SWTOR is not dieing. Though I will admit they screwed up royally by opening so many servers. 220 servers is just insane.
Also, that very same news article says people complain about Gay relationships in the game.
Hint: There is no such thing in the game.
So don't trust these news so blindly. they know jack squat.

Real long answer. The short version is: its not easy to leave here legally.
I could liquidate all my assets pay off some coyote smugglers to get me and my family out of here via illegal ways, but then I'd have to live as an illegal alien, and that's something I wont do. If I leave here, I do it legit, so that there's no way I can be deported back.
And the legit way is mind-boggingly hard, due to all the red tape you gotta go through.

1. They screwed up royally by announcing a feature, then saying it wasnt going to be in the patch 2 DAYS before the patch went live.
2. The boss fights are only made hard by the fact that they are so buggy. NM Soa - half the platform missing, pillars not breaking his shield when they hit him, his 33% dmg attack still being up after you've taken down ALL the power sources. Don't get me started on the Pillars fight.
3.The exact same article says nothing about the gay relationships.

Can't you become a political refugee? I wouldn't think you would need to fully immigrate from Venezuala, and that most western nations would have you and your family, at least, until you could fulfill their immigration requirements after becoming a refugee.

What should it say?
"Type something you dolt!"
"This area is blank at the moment."
"Biscuit eating poo monster."
The problem with something being there is that if you submit it, it won't actually say that. But the problem with it being totally blank is that it would appear to be a "submit" button. So, ... is probably the closest they can get to a good compromise.

I agree. Then I can press tab less.

humm, I'm not sure I qualify as a refugee. Wouldn't that require the crap to REALLY hit the fan? (i'm talking civil war, constant warfare, Somalia-like)
