    Did ya miss me?

    Thanks At least I'm able to write in some peace and quiet. The house I was in first, the wife didn't work, and had to have the tv on, and I couldn't really work at the bench that my desktop was at in the garage. But now I've got a room with a door and a desk and nice chair, and everyone else works all day. It's actually kind of weird lol.

    Now I just need a job. Or, to get my act together and force Valve to hire me. Something.
  2. Just when I'm coming back!?

    Well, the game - and the community- will still be here (and fb and everywhere else) for you and I'm sure that you'll still have terrifically horrible work-related anecdotes to tell when you do come around.
  3. Have a happy birthday! That's a gorgeous piece of art.

    I know that they take PLACE in Praetoria, what I mean is is that designed so that I don't have to continue keeping my level 19 Praetorian not earning XP. I don't want to convert her to a hero or villain. I am unclear as to how she'd be able to skip the choosing process, is there a different contact available for those characters? I realize this sounds utterly stupid, but I haven't been around for this. I don't want to just keep bringing my heroes and villains there, she's never become one.

    lol wow, yeah I was here for a good long while, and I have a lot of posts. It's kind of hard for me to jump back up to the general forums, because I'm SO far behind in terms of knowing anything here any more. I've got a total of one alpha slotted on a couple fifties, and aside from that I don't even KNOW what I've missed out on since they were introduced.

    I do love the newer zones, though, the Wards are just amazing. I still want further content to continue being a Praetorian (either flavor) because I just do not want to commit to having Emperor's Adul8r out in the heroic or villainous world. She likes it in Praetoria thank you very much, so... arg! Needs 21+ content! Because I want to play her and have her in costume contests (because she has a gorgeous look) but... only in Pretty Praetoria!

    eeep!

    Yeah I've seen you briefly too.

    ... my guilty pleasure of late has been playing Borderlands and adapting my OC to this world. Is that okay?

    Thanks

    Now if only finding a real job was as easy as finding a Day Job location in COH...

    Only in target practice, I know.

    I've been gone a long while, and I'm still in pretty dire straits right now, but I have a roof over my head and internet, and enough paypal to float myself the comfort-food of City of Heroes for a couple months VIP.

    I've been spending a lot of time on the Steam forums, and Deviantart, so folks who habit those locales may know of my accident, eviction, and the like. In short, my life sucked and still sucks, but I still have decent friends in the world. Not many. But enough, I guess.

    I've been writing still, a long fan fiction called Repurposed, which is posted over on Deviantart. Still writing it, it's over 450 pages now. Still drawing, and that's honestly a miracle given my wrist's condition in January.

    Some folks probably have seen me on occasionally, but now that I have a VIP I'll probably be playing a bit more. I'm SOOOO far behind on any of the new content, changes to slotting and whatever else, so I hope you'll all forgive me for asking stupid obvious questions. They're only obvious if you'd been on and I haven't. :P

    Anyway... Here I am, like it or lump it.

    How's tricks? Is Badge around at all? Anyone? (I ask that because of the 'filming has started' message in the one global, which... well, that was a long time ago indeed.) I'm sure that there has been plenty of drama in the meantime, and I don't wanna dredge it up. Got enough of that in real life, eh?

  13. I'm in this boat too: I was under the impression that the store, as we were told VERY CLEARLY, had the "full price" and the billing would properly reflect discounts. I got my bank statement and lo-and-behold, that's the same price as shown.

    Whether or not this was an error by someone thinking "hey we could put the discounted price online", ... it's extremely misleading, and in general at any STORE - that store would be responsible for giving the product AT the rate as advertised. In this case, indeed: half of 9.99.

    I haven't bothered looking into the prices, mostly because I pay with paypal and *still* can't just use paypal for these purchases. But I even put my debit card number in so I could access this sale.

    ... So come to find out it wasn't the sale I was SHOWN.

    Very bad form.
  14. Yay! Indeed, having your trip finally come through on your bday is awesome.
  15. My desktop is still not functional, but my friend is coming by with an XP disk shortly. If I'm actually up and running by the right time tonight I'll be there, but I seriously doubt it'll be that easy, so don't expect me

    T____T I miss Mean Monday/Last Chance!
  16. So IS there any confirmation of server slot purchases being half price too? It's essentially the only thing I really *want* out of all this, I don't have any issue paying full price for costume packs and such, but I need more slots on my home server and would just like to have at them when they're cheap...
  17. I won't be able to make it this time. My desktop isn't working right, not sure if it's the mobo, the chip, or the video card, but my laptop can't handle too much gaming, and the keyboard I have has a broken (you should hear it) space bar. :/ no jumping for me.

    I hope you guys have a good time though!
  18. Are the servers up? I just realized that this was TODAY and not TOMORROW because I'm an idiot. :/
  19. Yeah it's kind of hard to start planning for things when your globals are completely gone
  20. I was the first to die on it, as I recall.
