This post is a link collection to my 'Vision' series of posts to improve and possibly 'save' Star Wars Galaxies. Feel free to follow the links, read the posts and join the discussion to help improve on the ideas in the linked threads!

II. Miscellaneous links
The following miscelanneous posts I have come up with are not part of the ‘Vision’ series, but they are certainly still be worth a read.

A perfect way to (re)introduce all named color crystals and flawless pearls: Chu-Gon Dar Cube! http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=jedi&message.id=1286265 This post which originated in the Trials of Obi-Wan Beta forum and then made it’s way to the Jedi forum deals with the perfect way to introduce all named color crystals to the game as well as reintroduce Krayt Dragon Pearls and damage crystals with all kinds of quality rating (including premium and flawless) to the game while providing much needed content.

The one starrer come forward and explain your decision t one-star every one who likes Glzmo's ideas.

Other wise you're simply trolling and have put no input into why people are "wrong".
