  2. I voted 1, but I really wish there was a third option, "neither."

    Does this mean you're getting rid of the villain skin? Cos I hate the blue, just sayin'.

    YAY! I get to be nitpicky!!!

    The first Valentine Event coincided with "Buddy Codes", which allowed an account to get started subbing without a box code. If one of those accounts never applied a box code, they would not have their box code token.

    So yes, the vast majority of accounts will have a second token. Some may not.
  4. It's a certain range around the flyer that is summoned. Every few seconds (10? 15?) a menu will pop up asking if you want to transport if you're standing within range.
  5. Just FYI, if by "exp link" you mean "level pact", they're turned off right now.

    You can create popmenus that have key triggers to select the menus/items listed. So you can hit your bound key to pop the menu open, then you can hit, for instance, 1-9 to select from the nine items listed, which will either pop those submenus open or execute the command(s) attached to it. Your mouse doesn't need to do anything.

    The queue is much older than Freedom.
  9. Harlan and Trep, the contacts listed, are 34+.
  10. Using the guide to silence sounds, you can replace a sound with another sound. I'm not sure what the details are for the tell noise.

    You make Aggelakis cry when you forget about the Wiki.

    (etc...replace Alpha with appropriate slot name)

    Yeah, that was kind of ridiculous.

    Yeah, but you can buy a bunch of them and let them sit in your mail to claim as you want them. Astral Merits fall like rain in iTrials (admittedly less in DA).

I don't recall what it was originally bound to but I have it bound to V, Holding down V and clicking on the screen sets a transparent blue waypoint that your character will travel to. This is especially neat if your character is a flyer.
    That's been there since I started in 12/2005, so it's not new in the least.
  16. I play more Defenders than anything else.

    It's entirely possible that I play more Defenders than multiple other ATs combined.
  17. I've updated PWiki with tomorrow's target, and sent a beggar's PM to Zwill for the rest of the list.
  18. LFG won't be a global channel, it'll be a server channel like /help.
  19. Uh, pretty sure they're not meant to.

    Not entirely sure what they're meant to do/be, because I don't really understand the giant thigh pocket myself, but they're not meant to flatter anything.
  20. If you were a previous subscriber, with more than three months' subscription under your belt, you will be grandfathered in with at least two tokens, which unlocks tells. It requires five tokens for global channels.

    If you made a new account for some reason, then yes, you are on a glorified Trial Account.
  21. It took me one hour and fourteen minutes to answer it, not 23 hours! Someone else had already given the answer, I just supplied follow-up help! (I tend to not answer things that are already answered unless info is wrong/incomplete, or I feel like being a nitpicky bunglehead.)

    Please note you don't need them slotted to get the tier bonuses. Just owning that many tokens is enough for the tier bonuses to unlock. It's only the actual socketed rewards that require slotting tokens to obtain.

I'd highly recommend you don't just manually turn it on, otherwise you'll have to manually turn it off without being able to see the chat window! (certainly possible, but if you're not comfortable with slash commands it could get very messy)
    If you actually do use ++disable2d, which essentially means "toggle the command disable2d from whatever state it's currently in to the other state", then you can then hit enter, the up key, then enter again, and it'll use ++disable2d again, which will toggle it again, turning it on. Not messy at all!



    By the way, hitting enter so that your chat has focus, then hitting the up key will allow you to resend any of the last ten things you sent to chat, hitting up up up up up to cycle through them. Hit enter at any time to resend that piece of chatter.

    I absolutely *adore* <enter> <up> <enter> after doing "/loc" when I'm exploration hunting because it allows me to /loc faster. (Although I think I might end up making a permanent bind in my default keys so that I can just hit one button instead of three.)

    I also do it when hunting for badge bosses after doing "/targetcustomnext enemy bossname" if I don't want to make a macro.
  24. Psssst, guess what? Premium Players *are* free players! They're not paying a subscription, and thus they are free players. There are two types of free players: free players who have never spent a penny on the market, and free players who have spent money on the market or on the game prior to Freedom or who have subscribed at some point in the past. But they're both playing without a subscription, making them free players. (Don't believe me? Take a look at a Preemie account management screen...what kind of account are they? That's right...Free!)

    Hey! Guess what...every single preemie player can pay a magical $10-15 per month (depending on how much they want to plunk down at a time) to play their Incarnates at full power. Congrats! Your suggestion is already in the game.
