I created the first Player Association just north of Mos Eisley. After building the P.A. Hall, I went inside to the Guild Management Terminal. The first step was to give it a name. The first bug I discovered was I couldn’t put spaces in the name. After reporting the bug, I typed in the name of the first Star Wars Galaxies Beta P.A. – “ForceSensitiveSheep” (inspired, of course, from in-jokes on these very boards). The next step was to give it an abbreviated name; “FSS”. My P.A. was now active, but I needed to get members if I didn’t want it to go away in the next couple days.

After putting out a quick system message (it’s good to have special powers ), I soon had several potential members rushing up the hills outside of the seedy spaceport city. When they got to the door, they quickly realized they couldn’t get in. My first step was to sponsor them. I clicked on the “Sponsor For Membership” button on the radial menu on the terminal and typed in the name (the first being “Erick”). Erick got a message telling him that I was willing to sponsor him for the PA if he accepted. A moment later, I received a message with Erick’s acceptance. The next step was for me to click on the new “Sponsored for Membership” button of the radial menu. It brought up a list of sponsored people waiting to be accepted (currently only Erick). I accepted him and my first recruit came in through the door.
