  1. Note that you have to use both binds, you can't just bind shift+sysrq. By default, sysrq is only "screenshot", which means if you use shift+sysrq, it will turn on the UI, and if you use sysrq (default) after that, it will still have the UI turned on since it doesn't have the extra "screenshotui 0" in the default bind.

    Nope. Rep disabled just means that instead of green or red jelly beans displayed for your rep, you have a single gray jelly bean. Being repped when you've disabled rep still gives you green, red, or gray jelly beans with the rep comments. A gray jelly bean in a rep comment means the person doesn't have enough rep to adjust your rep, regardless if you have rep disabled or enabled.

    It's not just "paid time" that counts toward vet time. Free time from inviting friends, free months, etc., also count.
  4. Obligatory bind post:

    /bind sysrq "screenshotui 0$$screenshot" <-- always take a picture without UI
    /bind shift+sysrq "screenshotui 1$$screenshot" <-- always take a picture with UI

    This way you don't have to worry about extra binds. Print Screen acts as default (no UI), shift+print screen adds the UI in.
  5. Um... yes you can. You have all the information necessary that Roderick and the others note you need available to you in Mids. You just need to use math. (God forbid!)

    damage of powers: mids? check
    activation time of powers: mids? check
    recharge time of powers: mids? check

    Um. Ask here?! You'll get at least 30 name suggestions in less than a work shift. Typically more.

    Additionally, log in-game with an established character and pick the brains of people in global channels. Most are willing to assist naming an alt. We're the majority of us altoholics, anyway!
  7. I got Hi Jinkies for my Velma homage a while back. I was soooo surprised!!! and happy!

    I have Green House as well, a plant dom.
    Arachne Aima, which is basically "Spider Blood", my widow.
    Magnificent, my obligatory catgirl.
    Polly Anna, Cheryl Noble, 1.21 Jiggawatts, Fossil Fuel (earth/fire dom), Irradio (kin/rad), Kerplode (my obligatory firekin), Earthstrike, Kinesthetic, Do You Mind? (mind dom), Storm Season (storm/elec), Lilliput, Guggenheim, Electrislicer, The Dead Walk (necro/dark), Doll Finn, Mutation Molly, Shoulder Imp/Shoulder Puck, Super Sonique (kin/sonic), Darke Fist... there's more and still more...
    in addition to a ton of alts that I've deleted over the years... (these are all toons that I currently have in my stable)
  8. Made a note under the Origin of Power arc, explaining the unavailability of this arc between 20-29.

    I only use these binds to move from spawn to spawn within missions, not every time I'm moving. It took about one mission to teach myself to hit only one button at a time. Very easy.
  10. /bind up "+forward$$powexecname Ninja Run"
    /bind down "+backward$$powexecname Ninja Run"
    /bind left "+left$$powexecname Ninja Run"
    /bind right "+right$$powexecname Ninja Run"

    Note that +left and +right are strafing, if you want to turn instead, you want to use +turnleft and +turnright.

    It won't override WASD because you're not rebinding WASD, they continue to act normally, with just "+forward", etc, no extra bind to them.

    Took Acro. Complained.
  12. If I'm taking Stamina, I take Health as a place to put my Miracle and Numi uniques. I have a few on each server so that I can shuffle them around via respecs to the characters I'm playing most often. Very nice.

    I take Swift if I'm taking SS, Fly, or TP. I take Hurdle if I'm taking SJ. Ninja Run supplements (I have the directional arrows on my keyboard bound so that pushing any one toggles on NR and releasing it toggles NR off. Thus between spawns in a map, I use the directional arrows to move faster, and keep WASD as my combat movement keys and travel-power movement keys.)
  13. I always miss the good drama. *pout and sigh*

    So...why hasn't the KB hole been closed yet?
    Cos they don't want to.

  15. Err. Why, none! What are you talking about? :x *jedi hand wave, run away*

    (Brain fart. I was thinking of Earth Assault, but that didn't come along till after the change, and my brain supplied something totally unrelated that was. LOL)
  16. Aha! Found it.

    Acro changed in Issue 12 (Midnight Hour, with Cimerora, etc), as did Power Boost in Doms. Other ATs with Power Boost aren't listed, oddly, nor are the Accolades that also boosted KB (which IIRC were changed at the same time as, for instance, Energy Manipulation).

    Why is there no Accurate ToHit Buff IO set?
    Because they didn't make one. (Jeez, how the heck did it go THIS LONG without the obvious answer!? Forumites, you disappoint me!)

    /boggle
    No, people took a not-KB-heavy set and it changed the knockdown into knockback.

    Also, the PVP thing above. Although I seem to recall it was changed prior to I13. Hmm.
  19. Hover over the enemy's health bar to get his hit points.

  22. Make sure you go to the Titan forums for Mids and grab the latest download update (put out mid last week). It won't auto download from the Mids internal updater (that is not functional yet due to coding issues). A bunch of little tweaks were made.

  24. Due to whatever design decisions, teleport and fly were locked out because they get it inherently. WS get fly (squid) and two TPs (normal and dwarf), PB get three styles of flight (squid, hover-equiv, fly-equiv) and a TP (dwarf).

    That's not to say I disagree with the suggestion - not heavily invested either way - but that's the most likely reason why.

    NoFuture notes

    No idea. I was under the impression that Tomax was the only one with access to redtomax.com, it's not hosted/maintained by Titan.
