  • caseycur392, on 12/01/2008, -0/+4When SWGEmu is finished, i will probably lose my job, my house, my wife will leave me, and my dog will run away from my broke ass, but ill have a ton of fun.

  • Nodaki, on 12/02/2008, -0/+3Returning the game to the original vision of Raph Koster before that walking piece of feces Haden Blackman took over is a great idea. I would love to revist that game.
