    Another workaround that doesn't involve throwing away our Astrals/Emps is to give Christy and Mike a little pet wolf who exchanges a single character-bound Catalyst for a single emailed Catalyst.

    Pretty sure he means the fact that there was no warning on the forums prior to the patch. No post yesterday to say "there'll be a patch tomorrow".
  3. Fortitude at 12 for Controllers.
  4. There isn't one.

    I mean, there is one. There's one of every single IO in the game. But it's not for sale.
  5. Team with your upper-level friends doing even-level content. Even when you're little, empathy is super powerful. And if your friends don't mind a day or two of plowing through whites and yellows (it'll make them feel super powerful to blast through wimpy enemies), your ill/emp will be 18 and get delicious, delicious Phantom Army in no time.
  6. Yeah, change it into "Account Service Token" to go along with the monthly pp and token.

    Have one of the options you can take be more pp, something like 400-500 pp; since pp is so much more flexible you'd obviously not get the full 800pp "price" from them. Combined with the monthly 400/550 pp, this is enough to get one powerset a month, two costume sets a month, a bunch of super packs, a ton of consumables, etc.

    I would love it if they could be turned in for the inventory increasers too.

    --- 1 account service token ("worth" 800pp) for the vault increasers
    * normally cost 400pp each, would be sacrificing 400pp of "value" to permanently increase your vault storage
    --- 2 account service tokens ("worth" 1600pp) for the auction/recipe/salvage increasers
    * normally 800pp each, would be sacrificing 800pp of "value" to permanently increase your XYZ storage
    * would take two months to build up enough account service tokens to do so
    --- 3 account service tokens ("worth" 2400pp) for the enhancement increasers
    * normally 1600pp each, would be sacrificing 800pp of "value" to permanently increase your enhancement storage
    * would take 3 months to build up enough account service tokens to do so
  7. I know the third party that built the back-end behind the Paragon Market.

    I know the third party has built some amazing markets in other games.

    I have NO IDEA why Paragon Studios accepted the crap that this third party shoveled in their laps when they have done so much better for other games.

    What really needs to be done is for Paragon Studios to call the third party on their bad designs and tell them to give them a product that works appropriately, because what Paragon got was obviously not what Paragon asked for. Unless Paragon asked for a broken market, in which case, shame on Paragon.

    Sorry if that sounded political. I'm not really trying to argue the plight of the Sudanese but am more incredulous at the hollow reactions of his co-hosts and those who would feel sorry for him. At the end of the day, he's still in show biz and runs a small media empire so sympathy from me is hard to come by. Not to say he doesn't work hard for it, but still it's a lot to come home to.
    Completely and utterly beside the point.

    They've already said yes, they will animate when flying.

    ClockworkO1 said he'd look into animating while jumping.
  10. You should be able to download the mouse drivers from Logitech itself. Why would you want generic drivers anyway? :/

    People were consistently pointing out his dirty suit for the rest of the night, most of the time by making a joke which forced Ryan Seacrest to laugh as if he appreciated a) Sacha's "joke" and b) the joke by the person in front of him. And because people are not very creative, he probably heard the same few jokes over and over and over (which we were allowed to skip due to the wonders of television but he had to endure for hours).

    There's laughing at silliness, there's laughing at misfortune, and then there's "causing misfortune and then laughing about it". They're three distinct concepts (though silliness and misfortune can and often do happen at the same time). And the third one isn't very funny.

    my thought was about saving space/making the page look a bit more tidy.

    but hey ho i'm sure there's other idea's they could use.
    That would be acceptable, but the NCsoft web team is so incompetent I wouldn't want to do anything fancy that has the possibility of breaking.

    Just wanted to point out that the "random" people attending the funeral were all purchasable costume sets, not necessarily anything to do with lore.

    Five months (September 13)! Nearing on six, actually!

    Yes, it is correct. That is how it is SUPPOSED to work. The reality often does not match.
  17. I honestly, seriously, and totally do not understand people's love of Sacha Baron Cohen. I didn't find that funny at all, and sympathize with Ryan Seacrest having to stand around in a dirty suit and get made fun of for hours (and for days after, due to people's inability to move on from bad jokes).
  18. No, I totally meant, like, share it with the class. *grabby hands* Download link! I don't know how to do anything in Excel but I am GREAT!!! at plugging numbers in and making blinkenlites!
  19. I'm not sure, but I think NCsoft Seattle might have heard me squealing all the way from up north here.
  20. but I don't even

    Yeah, nope I've never successfully completed TPN, regardless of pets.
