    It didn't kick back last night, but I was only on for 10 or 15 minutes after I sent the mail.

    I will double check shortly.

    EDIT:
    The mail did not return. I'm 99% certain that the inf was not re-deposited onto him, given how much he had on hand logging into him just now.

    It would seem that the influence is just gone. Lesson learned. I guess the "burn influence" part of the goal was achieved, at any rate.

    I just sent a test email, and will re-send the influence once I get a reply from you.
  2. Since I have a lot of disposable inf at present, I figure I'd add fuel to the fire.
  3. Inf will be mailed to you, Silver Gale.

    Is there a period at the end of the global, or are you just ending a sentence?

    Edit: saw your CIT listing without a period. Mailed it to that global... if yours DOES have a period, email me ingame, and I'll send to that one, also.
  4. Save yourself 100 mil!! I'm lowering it to 1.9B.

    I have 2, crafted, at level 10 available.
  5. Kind of what I am debating now.

    My first, and beloved, character, I envisioned being sturdy and smash-happy. So I created a WP/WM Tanker.

    I wanted bigger, smashier weapons.

    Then came Titan Weapons. Perfect for him.

    But I am so attached to him! Part of me doesn't want to re-roll because I don't want the redesign to outshine my first character, my first 50.
  6. I've done a few of these trades, and always from the seller point-of-view. All have been via gleemail, since every time, it seemed we were never online at the same time.

    In one case, (selling for 2.25 bill) the buyer sent 2 bill up front, I sent the IO, they sent the remaining 250. This was their decision, and not an imposition I placed.

    In a few cases, I just took a leap of faith, sent the IO and the buyer sent the inf. I figure if I want to sell more high-value IOs in the future, it would help to have some credibility with those buyers later on. This is also why I make the sale known publicly (either in this forum, in a global channel, etc.) I believe that if I am willing to attach my name to the trade (not that I am very prolific or well-known), that the person can expect a reasonable level of trustworthiness.
  7. I have another level 10 (crafted) for sale.

    Asking 2 billion
  8. Open the launcher, right-click on City of Heroes, and go to "Properties".

    Under "Extra Command Line Parameters", enter the command.

    Meh.
  10. Heh, I found a bunch of copies at a Zellers a couple years back. I bought six, thinking "sweet! 6 months of game time for $30!" My sister, coincidentally bought a few for me, thinking the same thing.

    I wound up using one on my account, one on my wife's, a couple for to create SG-invite-accounts, and gave a few codes away.

    I can't say for certain that you'd still be able to apply it, now with Freedom, but I'd imagine you could. I found an Architect Edition at Best Buy for $10, and applied that, but I just cannot recall if it was before or after Freedom's launch.

    Edit: It was a few weeks before Freedom launched

    Save yourself a few million. For the last few weeks, I've been buying them crafted at more-or-less your price point, and selling them in the same range you are.

    Three weeks ago, I was buying them at 60-65, and selling them at 110. I've not sold any above 100 mil in two weeks, though.
  12. I have another level 50, if anyone is interested. Asking 2 billion again!

    Edit - 02/01/12: Sold!

    Chronicle

    Looks decent enough.. I'll probably check it out
  14. The ability to turn $100 into $1,000,000,000 in a few days, by standing in front of a dude in a green jacket.
  15. Once meant to spend 750,000/ea on a stack of 10 rare salvage... wound up typing in 75 million.

    I am so careful now, but it still happens occasionally.
  16. I proudly accept that award!

    Yep, there was a total of four of the Oblit quads
  17. I quickly claimed some to ensure room. I wasn't paying attention to what the actual recipes were. I'm only able to sort of check in here and there at the moment, but I got your tell, so I am excited to find out what they are!

    Edit: Thank you for this, by the way!
  18. Ha! Didn't expect to actually get it with 751m.

    I had a cutoff as well, but just couldn't resist a single million increment, figuring others (Mike Robe included) might do the same.

    I will forgo the 1 inf email, and send the influence in its entirety.

    It's okay. I don't understand why, but I always mispronounce "Synapse", though only in the context of the character. I pronounce it and read it correctly, if I were to see/say "chemical synapse". For some reason, my brain doesn't reconcile that it's the same word.

    Huh. The most interesting thing I got out of that link, is that I have been pronouncing "Numina" incorrectly. I always assumed it was "New-Mee-Nah"

    Heh, Banana McJammyPants also paid tribute to our fallen fellow tank
  22. The level 10 has sold.

    Edit: 01/28/12 The level 50 has sold.
