Personally, I've entirely given up on in-game e-mail. I just let it pile up. I'm currently playing a little game with it. Seeing how many I can accumulate.

I once got email-bombed by someone back before the RMTs. Don't let your email fill up too much or you'll lag like hell trying to do anything. I forget the exact number of emails I ended up with after he bombed me, it was a lot though, think it may have been a couple thousand even but it was quite some time ago so I don't remember. Once I got it under 500 the lag got better. Getting it down to that 500 was a pain in the butt though, since every time I deleted an email, it reloaded the whole inbox and caused more lag. So yeah, just a word of warning to not collect too much.

[/ QUOTE ]
Wait, so the Email In-box cap is 500?
I've been wondering that for quite a while.

I like the concept of a bus line, since we've had the bus stops forever and never had any busses in the traffic.

I'd like:
1) Click on the bus stop and check the popup menu for a list of stops. Preferably, this would be a modified version of the zone map.
2) Sit through an interuptible period (while your character does the waiting emote).
3) Arrive at new destination.

Here's my question:
Using the tram, we have a huge safe area to do so. Would using the bus stops require that the spawns near the stops be moved out of agro range?
Or maybe have a countdown-to-targetable timer like in PvP for when there is a mob near the bus stop you arrive at? (I guess some mobs won't attack while the bus is still there and is full of witnesses or something)

The color Black.

Looking at this in a mechanical perspective, if the MA is designed to be usable to level from 1-50, it has to provide wealth ($Inf, recipes, salvage and/or tickets) as well as XP. Otherwise you have characters who cannot buy and slot enhancements, use the tailor or participate in any of CoX's other money sinks.

How you justify this in your particular RP fashion is up to you.

Heh. Nobody else knows about thier uber setup, yet they all look alike?

Well, your guess is certainly as good as mine.
I just find it redundant.

Here's what happened.
I was in the mood to fight the Warriors, one of my favorite L20-29 foes. So I entered the AE and hit search: keyword: "Warriors".
It's a fairly common word, so I expected several pages of results
Wow. Battle Maiden's Warriors are fairly popular for a faction that only shows up in one arc in the main game.
And they're in a whole bunch of one-mission arcs using the same map, mission descriptions like "lvl u xp fast". I start a few of them and see that they are all pretty much the same. Same map, 1 glowie.
Why the redundancy?

Supposedly some farms get banned.

If there are farms already available, why would a person want to make an identical one, using up one of thier slots?
Is it because they want to have easy access to a specific farm without having to search? If so, why would they leave it published when they are done, unless they are trying to get "X number of users have rated your mission" badges?
I don't get it.

I'm not trying to complain about farming itself (that's already been done).

But why risk one of your own slots to the ban-hammer if exactly what you want is already available? If optimum farming is about getting maximum XP in minimum time, why waste time throwing together a farm at all? Granted, dialog like "go kill" and "nub go" don't take a lot of thought, but still...*shrug*

Put PB on auto-fire and
/bind W "+forward$$pow_exec_name Hasten" in order to get it to try to fire Hasten every time you move?

"To Settle A Bet" by @BBQ_Pork.

It's lowbie-friendly, using factions that are available at all levels (Security Guards and Longbow).
Fairly quick, a fair number of glowies.
Soloable.

Plot: A mad scientist from the Rogue Isles wants to play a prank on Paragon City, by turning a resevoir into a giant pool of lime Jello.

(Keyword in the description "LFMA" should make it easy to find.)

Last I heard: 2 EndRed, 3 Range.
But, I don't use it myself, so I leave the definative "Best Slotting" to others.

You can also look at the available Set IO's to squeeze better performance out of fewer slots.

Or test it yourself using the Test Server and/or the Alternate Build option to get it to perform to your preferences.
Enjoy!

/hidesearch really cut down the amount of spam I get, I get 2-3 pieces on a character now and then.

[/ QUOTE ]
Hiding from the search menu really does help, to an extent.
I've noticed that characters that I've put down as hiding from search (as soon as they are created) don't get added to the spammers' "mailing lists".
Once they start getting spammed, it's too late.
YMMV.

Is anything being done?

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, to be honest, we won't know what they are working on in terms of counter-measures until they spring it.
But I suspect that they are working on something.

I wouldn't be surprised if it were some kind of Email-throttling (No more than X number sendable over Y period of time, or some kind of reciever-side filter. (Using the search feature as you mentioned, I'm sure you've seen a few suggestions for this popular request.)

It's thier nightclub.
We pay the cover charge, but that doesn't give us the right to pee on the dance floor.
They will try to make the place as attractive as they can without making the drinks free, because as popular as that would be, it would put it out of business in the long run.

So how long do you think this guys character will last before it gets hit with the Mod stick?

Hmm...
Where: Name+Costume+(Bio or Powersets)=3, he has hit my "2 or more out of 3" threshold. Gee, pal, you clocked on [I Agree], then chose not to agree.
No fault but your own for the consequences.

I think that the best thing they could do is run through the AE and grab a better arc to substitute for the one Positron gives out on his TF.

I would like to have my own personal hideout. My own Fotress of Solitude for say. I like the sg thing. But I like to solo a few of my toons. A place to store recipes and what nots. It could be put into an expansion pack.

[/ QUOTE ]

SGs better get recipe storage before you get your lair...

[/ QUOTE ]
They can already store recipes....you just gotta craft them into enhancements first.
(Okay, you can't do that with temp power recipes, costume part recipes and Respec recipes, but of those, only the Respec-ipes aren't cheap.)

Ice isn't on brutes because it hampers Fury buildup... but anyways...

Yellow Ice Corruptor. Brings a new meaning to 'Corruption'.

Yellow Ice Storm.

That's enough. I'm ashamed of myself. But not that much.

Fire Blast / (Yellow Ice) Storm Corruptor.

Hmmm.
Does "It Burns When IP" fit in the name generator?

Then I suggest you look through This thread, stickied at the top of this very forum, where you might find a few versions of your idea, fleshed out in greater detail.
It's a tad long, but worth a read.

Can you flesh this out a bit?
Like maybe draw up a powerset, please.

I can only assume that it would be:
Mostly smashing damage.
Not available for use with the Shield defensive set, as it would mostly be two-handed?
Might have Knockdown, Knockback or Chance to Stun as possible side effects of some of the powers.
Would probably have a PBAoE.
Would probably have Build Up or something similar.
Would have a smidge more range (like 1-3 ft more) than other melee weapon sets.
Might have a cone attack of smacking the ground and producing an effect like Claws: Focus?

Unless you have other ideas, which I hope you will share.


So far, all you've provided is a few ideas for skins for the weapon animation.

PopKorn

and....
Phail_King

We already have badges that can only be earned while teaming.
The Mentoring Badges. 6 of them.
The TF, Trial and Respec Badges. (A few TF's, but not all can be solo'ed by a hard-core character, but still require a team to start.)
The V-Day Mission Badge. (requires a cross-faction teammate)


A couple of Blue-Side Accolades requiring Teaming:
Task Force Commander.
Geas of the Kind Ones. (requires taking out 2 GMs and doing a TF)

I expect to see a number of yellow Ice Tanks. It will still be considered Ice, of course.

Detra, when I had a step-dad I found that a Father's Day card that addresed him as "Dad" was close enough.
Or you could look for a blank card and hand-write something.
*shrug* I dunno.
Good luck either way.

...that the AE building in the RWZ seems really out of place? I mean, it's a freaking war zone. Not the best place to set up a new business, you know?

war zones are traditionally high-profit locations for those with the fortitude to stay open.
