So here's a question then: Why are you playing SW:G at all? You can
get a chat room elsewhere, in a myriad of forms, for free. I don't
know what the range of things you're interested in is but all you
mentioned was liking the music stuff. At the same time, you said you
found the music stuff so boring that you triggered it and just
chatted. Why not just go to a free medium like a text mud or even an
IRC channel if you want to chat? There MUST be something about SW:G
that is making you continue to fork over $15/month. Are you just a
huge fan of the Star Wars license or are there other game systems
you didn't mention that you are into?
