  1. Omega,

    Thanks for all the fun. And thanks for leading the awesomeness of that night. I plan to be there, killing Rikti as the servers go dark. It was my dream ending, and thank you for leading it.

    I'm in STO if anybody wants to look for me. @thecharybdis over there, as I am (and will be again) here on CoH.

    I will always remember the fun iTrials and the licks and whatnot. I hope to see you out there.

  2. I've said a lot of my peace on the Guardian Server FB page after the announcement, so I won't say it here. But I did want to say thanks to everybody that I teamed with, everybody I had fun with and everybody who had fun with me.

    I don't know if I'll be on on the 30th of November. I intend, of course, to let NCSoft know that their decision was a terrible one. But just in case I don't make it, I would like to have one last fun. Some of my first memories of this game involved Nemesis and the ITF. So, to (possibly) close out my time with CoH, I'd like to run an ITF. Saturday, November 10th at 8:30pm Central Time. Anybody and anything welcome. Not sure what I'll bring. But I'd like to go out killing Rommie.

    Thank you, everybody, for the 4 years of fun.

    At least as I understand it.

Unfortunately we will not be able to flag any accounts that were not VIP as such during this period.
    Just for my clarification: I was due to go premium on September 1st. So tomorrow I'll go all premium, am I correct?

    I was set to go to premium on September 1st, and I'm still currently enjoying all the perks involved with VIP status; incarnate powers, missions, etc. That's how I came about this claim.
  7. Whatever you were when they shut the store down is what you'll be till the end. If you were VIP on August 31, 2012 when they shut down the store, you'll be VIP until the end. Which we hope doesn't happen.

    They are, however, looking into turning VIP on for all.

    Next time I see MrsAlphaOne I'll tell her to poke her head in this thread. I just posted it for her as at the time she couldn't post here, she's the leader.

    Apologies for the late reply.

    Yes, I was slated to be Premium on September 1, 2012. I'm still running iTrials, popping Judgement on mobs of Council and collecting all of those lovely commons on the DA arcs.
  10. My VIP was set to cancel on September 1st. After they shut down billing, I'm still VIP. I can access iTrials, Incarnate powers, all SSAs and everything VIP related. You'll stay the same till the server shutdown also.

    You have NO idea how cool it is to find somebody who played Star Control, even in a gaming community. You just went up about 20 notches in my book.
  13. So MrsAlphaOne had the idea, and before the servers go bye bye, we need to do it. All Trick Arrow ITF. No matter whether it's your primary or secondary, not matter what your primary or secondary or AT is, as long as you have Trick Arrow, you're invited.

    So far as of this posting, there's 5 people, but let MrsAlphaOne (global name) know via tell if you're interested.

    Will be doing it on Friday, September 14th at 9pm Eastern/8pm Central.

    More seriously...let me guess, you're on Virtue or Freedom?
    I have joined only one or two preformed Blockbuster events on Guardian. The rest of my 2 dozen runs have been via the LFG tab. This is on Guardian. And I often team with people I know from globals. The LFG tab is sorely underused, and I make sure to tell people I'm in queue (and no, not even in the LFG or Help channels) and have ZERO problems joining. But it does take more than the supposed 5 minutes. Since the changes, however, I happily go and run missions until the event starts.
  15. Didn't see it posted here, so wanted to make sure it got out.

    Guardian Round Table hosted by Omega Shockwave

    I'll be hosting a round table type discussion on Saturday, June 16th at 7:00PM EST (4:00PM PST). Let's plan on meeting and forming a league in Pocket D. If we have a lot of interest (ie. fill the zone/are too big for a league), I have set up a global channel ahead of time that we can use. The channel is called "Guardian Round Table", and is public so that anyone can join it.

    The plan is to get a large group of veterans/leaders from the Guardian Server together to discuss and develop a plan to help strengthen the Guardian Server. The CoH/Guardian environment has changed quite a bit in the last year and I'd rather us all be on the same page and plan ahead for the challenges that are upcoming instead of waiting and hoping for the best. I've got several ideas/plans to talk about at this meeting. We'll also take a look at some common problems we experience as well as a opportunity/threat analysis. If anyone has an idea for a topic that they'd like to have brought up, they should contact me in-game (@Omega Shockwave) should send me a tell/in-game email.

    I'm planning on using a speaker's list to help the discussion run smoothly. I'm hoping that we get a good turnout for this.

  16. To be honest, there's already channels that can be used for that purpose. Level 50, Guardian, Guardian's Team are three that come to mind right off the bat. They're generally used to start the formation of trials and other teamage. Also, there is a Guardian VIP channel, but I think that one was set up for Guardianites to be able to chat while playing on Exalted.
  17. Right on people. Due to a more than a few weeks of the event where there was little to no response for the events, I'm going to be cancelling it.

    I appreciate all that joined the various events and hope all had fun!
  18. Updated for this week's event.

    Synapse!
  19. Tried an all-Kheld Eden last night, but only three of us showed. Had to open it to all, but still had lots of fun! I was upset there were few Void Slayers though. DE must not like outsourcing as much.

    Gonna make it a bit more open for next week, Positron Parts 1 and 2. So give a holler and let me know what you'll be bringing!
  20. I agree. Really, T9 isn't hard to buy with the current system. And it would make perfect sense for the money making aspect, as in order for the people who weren't VIP to fill them up, they'd have to buy Paragon Points in order to get the token to fill out that tier.

    So yeah, thumbs up on this one from me.
  21. This has come up twice that I know of in a global channel, so I thought I'd ask here.

    In options, under Keymapping and subsection Powers, there's an option for "Server Tray Slots 1-10." What are server tray slots?
  22. Well, not enough Khelds to run the Sutter this week. But no fear, two Khelds on team, filled with other ATs and still got a few Cysts and Voids. I'll be waiting on what the WTF is next week before I choose a TF for next Friday. But I look forward to seeing you then!
  23. Updated TF!

    ITF went quite well. Over 2 hours and 77 debts. All in all, I think we did quite well!

    Sutter next week.
  24. Okay, so sorry about the whole not doing the Moonfire this past week. I was running a lovely 102 degree fever and feeling quite miserable.

    So, to make it up to ya, hows abouts a lovely ITF offering? We can take our aggressions out on the evil Nictus that have decided to tarnish our good names!

    Same Kheldian time, same Kheldian channel.
  25. CharybdisClan

    Double XP?

    For me I plan to run the Moonfire TF a few times, maybe also an ITF or two. Friday at 9pm Central-ish I'll be running an all Kheldian Moonfire you're welcome to join.
