    Should it be allowed? What is not forbidden is permitted, so clearly it's ok to do - but having looked at most of the replies I'd say most responders are at the very least, uncomfortable with it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    To be perfectly honest, I don't really care if people feel uncomfortable about it. I'm looking for someone to provide a service. When someone does, there need not be anymore talk about it. If you don't like it, just completely ignore this post and pretend it doesn't exist.

    As I stated in the first post, I'm perfectly within my rights to do what I'm doing. I've given a reason for doing it, and I don't need to explain myself anymore.

    Just a side note, this isn't an attack on your or anything Scarlet, its to everyone that feels the need to try and tell me what I am doing is so horribly wrong.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It's not forbidden (yet) so you are in your full rights to do this. No argument there. You pay for the game you decide how to play it.

    But we ARE on a gliding scale here. If this is allowed, why not the use of Pro Life farmers? Why not allow the use of bots? Is there really that much difference between paying 100 mil inf or say a few Euro?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    One is legal and one isn't. That's the only difference that matters.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It's legal to kill a scotsman who walks through York City holding a bow and arrow......but it's not like anyone is going to do that is it?

    ......Anyway, whether you are for or against it, I don't think there is anyway to stop it without ending the levelling pact so posts like this are probably here to stay......

    But, IF someone accepts your 150 mill inf to do this for you, you are getting a right bargain.

    Consider this, ingame currency has a real life value. A quick search of the web and you'll find 150 million inf valued around US$45. These same websites offer services to get you to 45 at around US$150. Therefore, you should be offering around 500 million inf.

    So, whoever agrees to do this for you is a mug and you're laughing all the way to Wentworths.

    About merits.

    The Synapse problem has been posted about before (here? US?). Doing it within 24 hours of Posi gives some people a diminishing return. It's not meant to mind, so it is a bug....I'd petition for your extra 23 merits that you are owed.
  5. It'll be a couple of weeks if its a database update, but he's probably adding some features & the pvp power changes as well as the usually power sets/IO sets etcso it may not be till after christmas
  6. Just did the Johnny Sonata arc (a measily 2 merits, I might add....) and didn't get the arc completion inf/xp bonus. I presuming this is a bug relating to the reward window no longer being used.

    Sent in a bug report, but has anyone else has this on the arcs that used to give a choice on enhancements?

    And it goes without saying, that giant robot in Striga is finally going to make it out and be stomping around the various zones.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I was just saying the other day whilst doing Hess that I wish we could fight that robot. But, I wasn't sure the engine could handle something that big and fully animate it (as its bigger than Kronos)?

    Having said that:-

    Engine Upgrade
    Power Customisation (BABS has been rewriting code for this, apparently)
    Going Rogue...but for me, more like Going Grey (or inbetweenie, if you will)
    The Coming Storm (Rularuu invasion!!!!)
    More hardpoints on costumes for dual capes etc
    And much much more!!!

    I really don't think it's too big a request, do you?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    There's lots and lots of things iv not considered much to ask, sadly very few get done.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Well, as my dad always says... if you don't ask, you don't get!

    My biggest concern here is outlevelling story arcs. I don't want to have to go back and do them in Ourobouros (I dislike expemping to be honest), and I also would rather play whilst still earning rewards, so shutting the XP off altogether isn't an option for me either. All I want to do is continue to play normally, getting XP that I've actually earned rather than XP that's been given to me for not playing...

    Sure, on SOME characters I fully intend to make use of Patrol XP... But there are others that I just don't want it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    By shutting off the XP though, you still earn inf/prestige/salvage drops/recipes etc.

    So, can't you just shut it off while you do the story arcs you want, then turn it on and run through any double xp bars you've got therby getting to the same point you might've done at normal xp rate doing said story arcs?

    I too have never heard of Yellow Chick, she does sound amazing.

    AS you may notice, my reply was pointless but it's Sunday morning and I want to increase my post count.

    Did you just post that. I congratulate you for your first 50, but coming out and saying Defiant is not dead without any backup is gonna ruin your whole rep, forever.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Oh, right, so, erm, is saying Defiant is not dead the same as saying slot flash with Damage?

    Gratz on your first 50 efan78

  14. With the upgrades now AOE and the fact you get a full endurance bar on levelling up, it now takes less than a minute to dismiss and summon & upgrade.

    Plus, its not like the enemies level up with you so if you didn't dismiss and resummon, your pets would still be fighting enemies of the same level they were before.

    However, I totally agree that they should get a full insp set on you leveling up, maybe Tier 2 rather than Tier 3 though.
  15. That's what alts are for.

    Besides the technical issues, being able to control someone elses toon without having to log into their account is a powerlevelling websites wet dream.

    Having read those prices i now feel short changed myself and on behalf of our VG.

    We are one of those big active VG's that did put the time and effort in to earn 100 million prestige, and did spend it on expensive rooms.

    Now that i see the HUGE price reductions of security rooms, i almost feel obliged to now waste god knows how long demolishing god knows how many turrets, rooms etc to get this prestige back.

    This has REALLY [censored] me off now. Why can a script not be implemented, they have done it before, do it again.

    Dont keep [censored] off your long standing customers who have put the effort in.

    If you cant run a script to refund prestige, fix the borked, clunky base editor so there is a place to store made items while rooms are removed and remade.How many times has that been asked for? Listen to your customers my [censored].

    There are so many things they could have done, and they chose this absolute rubbish salvage conversion thing instead. Amazing.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    The base editor will change, probably with Architecht.

    I'm presuming you've built your base to be raidable and as raids are inactive, you might as well wait for the editor to be updated & base raids to be turned on before editing your base, you will still get the refund.

    Remember, this is just the start of the base revamp, it isn't the end, have patience

    These badges, are they bought with merits, or earned by earning merits?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Certain badges (and temp powers) will be buyable with merits but none are in the current beta build.....though which badges will be buyable is anyones guess.

    I don't think Merits & Pugs will be much of an issue, as you can select the level you want a recipe, the best way to earn merits will be on a level 50, then purchase the recipe you want and pass it to the toon you want.

    Some of the americans have worked out that they think the trigger is converting salvage into a costume slot.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Logged back on just now and went to see Granny Beldam in Nerva to unlock a costume slot on one of my Brutes, but no Zombie Apocalypse happened when doing so. Of course, somebody else might have done the same thing shortly before I did, so it could have been on a timer or something.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Don't think thats the trigger, Halloween costume salvage isn't limitless. I reckon its story arc related or banished pantheon related.
  20. Clicky

    So GR mentioned there was a 2nd trigger, now Posi has confirmed this can happen outside of the Event.

    I'm sure we'll find out what it is once the event has ended tomorrow when a Zombie Invasion occurs randomly, but any guesses as to what that trigger could be?

  22. I hate credit cards with a passion and would not wan't to get one just to purchase something on an ingame store.

    I also hate Maestro cards, they are not nearly as easy to use outside the UK as a Visa Debit (Cirrus is not a prevailant as Visa)

    But, I can't blame Maestro (or Credit Cards) in this instance as they are accepted on the website.

    It's NC's fault for not having in-game store items available on the website, which really annoyed me today as I wanted to buy 5 extra slots (I only have 2 spare, both for my shield & pain toons) but as I don't do credit cards & only have Maestro/Paypal I couldn't give them my money.

    I hope this gets fixed otherwise I'll have to wait till July to be able to make another new toon (or, make one on Onion...urgh )
  23. Love the boxing set, mainly because it's only 4 items so you can have a lot of variation

    Like the base telport too, more so on heroes, makes it easier to get to your base

    I like the non-combat pet, just wish there were more than 5 choices

    45/54 month rewards do look interesting enough (respec and a power that you chose not to choose earlier).....

  25. Yup, need Stamina, I have end-red in all but my first attacks and on any team I always run out.

    Pyschic Scream is a [censored] level 32 power...only take it if its concept...otherwise maybe go with Dart Burst or SOul Tentactles from GW...or wait to see what they change in Patrons if anything takes your fancy
