This thread is funny.....not everyone is up to date on their characters...maybe they focused on other things like JTR to help their guild, especially if they're newer.
Panic farming is really a personal thing. If you're short on something you really want and the event is coming soon, it's a panic farm for you. Who cares what others think the definition should be.
If revan happened a week earlier, I would have been nervous....maybe not panicked. As it is, it's working out nicely for me.
