Not sure if its been mentioned before but when doing my Faultline missions from the first contact, the two AVs that I came across gave me level 4 Single Origins instead of level appriopiate ones.

Sorry some of us have real life things going on and dont have all freaking day to play your game...but hey..our money is good enough...this is so f d up. This is got to be the stupidest move by you guys yet............

You guys, honestly lets wait to hear before getting upset. I honestly don't think that is what Cuppa meant, I think she was just trying to find a way to say that our free tmes still counted. I asked in my earlier post jsut so clarify and confirm that I'm right since it can be read in a different way. But I'm not going to get upset until we know more.

Okay I wasn't worried about Vet rewards before (not really that worried now although I'm looking forward to them) but saying PLAYED time got me a tad worried.

Just to clarify, does time that you have had the account but didn't log in stll count? I'm assuming you were just trying to mean that the time included the free months but wanted to check since there were a few months where I wasn't able to play but my account was still active.

Neither one of those are Zone monsters and he said only zone monsters.

This is the guide I use. It has animations of all the emotes.

Very good backstory. I hate fighting Malta but this made me actually want to go up against them . . .almost. Good work.

Had one about a week and half ago but forgot to post:

When you join a team of strangers for Hollow missions and the following happens:

1) Everyone that is new to the game would ask questions and get intelligent, non-sarcastic answers.

2) The mission was too low for good XP but instead of complaining everyone agrees to work together to get rid of it.

3) Being that the mission is very easy, the team participates in light hearted chatter throughout the mission.

I had such a good time, despite the good XP I was hoping for, I sent a tell to the leader to invite my alt so I could reward everyone and gave everyone 99,999 influence. (I don't give to non-sg members very often).

I even rejoined after I finished up a few other things and did frost fire three more times, all too low of level.

Excellent points there. Now if only the people who caused the other thread to come into being would read your post.

Don't ask if Player X can join if you don't know Player X. When you ask your teammates if someone can join, we generally assume it is something that you have played with before and liked. If they are someone that just asked you if they could join and don't know them, mention that to the team. A new bad player can destroy the flow of a good one and then with us thinking you knew and wanted this person to join, our perception of you will change for the worse.

Lots of good stuff here, both in the OP and the replies. My Nrg/Nrg blaster is now lvl 42. I can solo or team with great success (except for Rikti who like to Perma-hold me).

I love Nova but tend to only use it on teams. Repulsion Field from my Epic is something I'm still playing with but is coming in very very handy for taking on bosses.

Aim+Buildup+Explosive Blast (3 ACC, 3 DAM) followed by Energy Torrent (2 ACC, 3 DAM, 1 Range) makes for a great opening attack on mobs.

Aim+Buildup+Total Focus (3 ACC, 1 DAM - will put more later) followed by Power Burst is great for Lts and Bosses.

If you can get three teammates for Fortitude, its even more fun. Had a four man team the other night and I was running with triple Fort the whole time. I was tank, scrapper, blaster all rolled up in one and was a blast.

I am not a RP'r, just RP friendly, but since no one else has answered you I thought I would try and point you in the right direction.

For basic examples of RP, go to Gemini Park in Galaxy City on the Virtue Server and watch and listen. Also Pocket D is another good area that you can see RP in action.

I would also suggest posting this question in the Virtue Forum as there are several great people that RP and post in that section.

I would try to explain it myself but I know I won't do as good of a job as someone that knows what they are talking about.

Why didn't I think of yours?!

Yeah I never read through a four page thread so quickly, just checking to see if anyone had beat me to it.

Thanks for the link!!! Great idea.

Don't put "No Blind Invites" into your search screen and then send blind invites to people. Teammate friend of mine had this happen to him.

Don't spend so much time chatting in tells and SG chat that the non-SG member wonders why everyone is so quiet and no one is moving ahead in the mission.

Don't threadjack a fun thread to debate No Blind invites - plenty of other threads devoted to that already.

Don't join a team for some missions, ask to for help to get one of yours out of the way and then have to go as soon as your mission is done.

Don't declare youself a "Healer" and then only heal the Tank letting others on the team die.

Don't forget what AT you are playing, just because you spent a month playing your brute doesn't mean that you can play your defender the same way (I've been guilty of this when switching alts).

If you are a tank on a team with more than one tank, don't go to assist the other tanks. Take your share of the mobs to hold aggro. One boss only needs one tank to taunt him while the other ten baddies are killing everyone else.

Do not ask if you can grab an alt in the middle of a mission and forget to mention that the alt is several levels lower and won't be of any help to he team.

Do not forget that this is a game.

Do not click go to base when defeated in abandoned sewers and then exit the base through main exit - it puts you back to exact spot you died with those Rikti bosses still waiting for you.

Do not hold a costume contest in Atlas when drunk.

Do not assume that you are safe standing anywhere in the game, even with police drones around.

Do not open closed doors in missions to explore while teammates are AFK.

LOL, yeah I'm starting to live by this one. SG member friends tend to watch my prestige and if it goes up, they know I'm online.

Send tells to people on the otherside of the law without turning on your See Hero/Villian chat.

Brag about how many toons you have powerlevelled to 50 and then ask what basic powers are (powers available to the same AT and powerset that you claimed to have PL'd).

Six slot Brawl or Rest.

Send tells to four different people all on the same team asking for invites.

Send mistells to the person that you were complaining about with a friend.

Tell the level 50 Tank what can and can not be herded.

Respond to anyone questioning your tactics or answers with "I have a level 50".

Assume that everyone on the team is of the same sexual orientation or that they have the gender of their toon.

Do the Envoy of Shadows story arc.

I just don't think anyone wants the job of AT rep becausae they are afraid they won't live up to Castle's rep.

Well he said he was going to look at Blaster issues.

Hush!!!!! He just told the blasters that he would look at their issues. My lvl 39 Blaster is my new "main" and doesn't want him distracted with everyone bugging him about bugs.

And next, my true main - lvl 50 Tank - wants him to look at the tank issues (although I think the defense change and moving-target bug fixes will go a long ways for them).

So everyone else just leave him alone. He's mine. You can't have him.

Yeah since it doesn't have a group label of the zone, its a pain to find first the zone, then the badge you are looking for. Would like something a little more user-friendly. Not game-breaking for me or anythign, just figured while we were asking.

I would love to see badges given for damage dealt, like we do for damage taken or healed. Is there a reason this has not been done yet?

Edited to say: I also agree with the above poster. I would love to actually have sort options:Alpha, Zone, Type, etc. If that is not possible, I would love to see a better sorting put in.

I'd be willing to bet that he has already gotten PMs from someone from every AT to do the same thing.

Better than something else doesn't make it good. Quit your worshipping.

Have we seen any red name responses to this? Have they actually acknowledged this problem or are we just being ignored?
