    Edited the restrictions and changed the level restriction to 14 indeed.

    [/ QUOTE ]The restrictions listed here the same as they were yesterday. Where were the edits made?
  2. CoHHelper - download, install, run, post results here.
  3. Since when do people call him "Mr. Superman"? People don't add honorifics like "Mister" or "Missus" to a superhero name unless it's already in there. (You wouldn't, after all, refer to "Planet"...leaving off the "Captain" part.)
  4. Milk_Weasel. I couldn't tell what was going on either. Didn't know what it was until I looked at the title (I skip the title so that I'm not influenced.)

    Keep in mind that a number of the RMT accounts are also created using stolen credit card info, so the cost to them is very low.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Also there's a chance they are using a key-gen program to create fake gameplay keys.

    Either way, cost to spam = $0.

    I'd like to reiterate about the trial: not letting trial players be able to start their own teams is inane. I know several players who started a trial together to see how CoH/V played these days, but couldn't team up so were majorly turned off.

    [/ QUOTE ]It's pre-emptive: when WoW cracked down on RMT, RMT started spamming group invites, spamming their spam, then disbanding the team. Apparently it was incredibly disruptive.
  6. Petition is all you can do.

    Well, I guess you could cry and moan about it some more, threaten to leave, etc., but that won't change things.

    If they make the custom critters even harder, then low level characters may not be able to handle it.

    Especially if Super Strength Bosses start getting Knockout Blow at level 8 as a Standard Attack.

    [/ QUOTE ]Not even "at level 8"...critters don't have level-gated powers. They have them, or they don't, so a level 1 boss would have KOB.

    Interesting, because I have never seen my Mind/Thorns Boss, who is Hard/Extreme, use any level 35 or 38 attacks from Thorn Assault when limited to level 33 and I know that she has them available.

    Just tested her at level 50, 37, and 33. Above 33 she does use the level 35 and 38 Thorn attacks. Below 33 she does not use them.

    [/ QUOTE ]I fought custom controllers with pets below pet level (I think I was on my 19 emp/dark or my 20 PB, frankly I forget). And was flattened by Energy Transfer at level 35 on a mob that had /energy (friend's arc, that's how I knew).

    So I was just gathering from those two examples.

    So, you just replied to my post without reading the preceding discussion -- even the part I quoted directly in my post? That's kinda silly.

    Okay, quick recap:

    Samuel_Tow said it was impossible. I said it wasn't, and gave an example. You suggested that that example doesn't count, because there was more money invested in it. I replied with a quick theoretical discussion that outlined the absurdity of objecting to the possibility of something via suggesting the conditions under which it is possible are irrelevant. You didn't get it, and I recapped the relevant parts of the thread in a short paragraph for your consumption.

    So! We good?

    [/ QUOTE ]I didn't suggest that the example doesn't count because there was more money invested, I suggested that the example doesn't count because Soul Calibur was built on an existing game engine, by veteran game makers for the most part. City was made by some no-name schmucks, most of whom were on their first foray into making a game, and were building their own game engine, the same one which we are currently using, which by many developer comments has a lot of code that doesn't make much sense, isn't well documented, and breaks other things in attempts to change it.

    Yes, it's true, I didn't say it was possible. But I didn't say it was impossible. I was just correcting your reference to Soul Calibur, because it doesn't really have a place here.

  10. *looks in her post to find the word "impossible".... hmm.... not finding it... not finding it...*

    I dunno, Soul Calibur's character creator seems to do a pretty good job of it.

    [/ QUOTE ]Soul Calibur was not made on a string budget by some schmoes making their first MMO.

    Ten MEE-LEE-ON hit points. You'll certainly be quite a while getting that one.

    [/ QUOTE ]Hundred million. And tell that to the people who got it at a billion.

    cannot email other players

    [/ QUOTE ]If this is true, you need to do something about the RMTs paying for your service (likely with stolen CC numbers) in order to advertise their crap...

    Or limit the number of emails that can be sent per minute or per X-block-of-time...

    Or give us filtering options...
  14. I agree with the 1000 badges idea once we got over 1000 badges...and would possibly consider signing on to the 500 badges idea.
  15. It's posted to the right place. Just don't expect to get a redname/developer response. They don't post here very often.
  16. [ QUOTE ]
    Better solution: make sending emails cost inf. Not much (somewhere in the 1000 inf range), but it would cut down on the spam oh-so much because now, in order to advertise, they've got to use their "product".

    [/ QUOTE ]Hee hee hee! Great joke!

    Oh my, were you serious?

    I PM'd both Ava and Niv about the out-of-date announcement.

    I don't mine if they were to sell extra MArc slots, but exceptional creators should be able to earn or be awarded extra slots.

    [/ QUOTE ]Isn't that what Dev Choice is for? Exceptional creators?

    Thanks bye.
  21. I would say it's based on her last name, Fannetti. But I'm a killjoy like that.
  22. You're thinking of Grav Control's Propel. Kinetics does not throw anything at anyone.

    the Snare one drives me nuts. It seems almost misanthropic to slap a whole new term on something that has been known as "Immobilize" from day 1. Was this some disgruntled employee's subtle last laugh on his last day of work?

    [/ QUOTE ]Snare is actually another name for slow, not immobilize. :x Immob is only immob.
  24. Are you or she on hide?
