    From my personal experience, i'ld say the more populated a server is, the less active a channel is compared to the lesser populated ones

    I'm as polarizing a figure as you're likely to find, and the most insulting rep comment I got was my stalker who commented "jerk" as often as they could for a few weeks.

    I'm sure some over the line things were said. But that happens 'out here' too. And they don't shut the forums down over it, they police the offenders and move on.

    I had some quite harsh negative comments imo but you just take no notice of it correct? If you are that emotional about negative remarks from strangers who arent leaving their names then a forum isnt the right place for them in my opinion. I agree though that it is a good idea they are trying to do improve the system for the better, however i do want my comments back now!

    Yes i am that fickle

    Cant they just have a button which blocks a person from leaving comments if you dont like a certain comment? Still would be unable to see their names but helps out a bit.

    Even though we only played for 3 missions i had fun Was funny me trying to understand what the team was saying

    "what does that mean? *looks through french book*"

    I tried looking at my police scanner and didnt have a CLUE on what enemies i would have been facing "do the what with the who?"

    So . . . . . . in conclusion . . . . . .

    Damzs experience teaming on the french server was fun Would gladly do it again!

If we looked at the city like a real world, then it would be contradictory to have him both sitting in Faultline trying to get someone to save Fiusionette, and acting as a member of Vanguard in the War Zone. But that's the thing - the city isn't subject to normal time. It's subject to level time. When you're level 1, it's still 2004, just after the Rikti War and things are still hectic. When you're 15-25, it's around 2006, when Faultline is still rebuilding and Temblor is still looking for his father. When you're 40-50, it's 2009 and Temblor has come to accept his powers, hooked up with Anette permanently and has become a respected member of the Vanguard.

    Personally, I enjoy that greatly. It gives me the illusion of an evolving world in a static setting.
    Same here Really helps in character progression in my personal opinion.

    Just checked, you come in at 76th....ok ok, Fifa need to have a look at that list a bit closer going by yesterdays result's!!!!

    At least we beat Fiji in the rugby lol

    That makes our victory even more impressive! Lowest ranked side yet we still won

    Dont get me started on the rugby sides of things though . . . . .

    I personally prefer patterns over actual styled costumes personally. You can mix and match them a whole lot better to create something even more unique and more "wow" factor.

    I think a server merger with Eu could turn out to be interesting... But would create some more language problems. Some people have trouble learning english, and I don´t think they would have fun being ignored because they don´t speak it..
    Well there is that problem obviously, but yesterday i was logged in to the french servers for about an hour or so and the majority of people there had a good understanding of english. Obviously isnt ideal though.

    Not to mention that the number of players who log on and off probably changes every 30 minutes or sooner.

    At the bottom of the list it shows the total found online [unhidden] within the parameters set. The list is just shortened showing players name. For example it could say 130 people found, this list was truncarateredio [hehe ] but only display 50 names.

    As far as im aware, this is the most accurate way possible to see a total number of people online at X given time.

    But the point i was trying to make was in regards to people saying that all EU players do is moan, which i admit we do do a lot, but if your entire server lists were like that then you'ld moan too. I was just showing actual evidence as to the reason since the person i was responding too has said numerous times that they dont have access to the EU servers and therefore have no idea on what it is like over here.

    But dont get me wrong, i know one or two of your own servers are possibly in a similar/worse state than ours so dont misunderstand me in that regard, was just saying that there is a reason WHY we moan.

    To do a mothership raid you need almost the entire german server? Can see my point

    Ah brazil is obviously the best team in the world granted, but serbia quality? I dont think so

    I dont know about scotland and wales though, both of their futures lately have looked bright in the football world. Both nations seem to finally be having young stars coming through [was shocked at scotlands display though!].

    Either way though, a victory is a victory Still hoping for the day we see all of the UKs nations in the world cup The atmosphere in this country would be unbelievable! Wouldnt be safe to go outside!

    This is going by the /search command. Obviously doesnt take into account hidden players, but the numbers of hidden players would never be THAT high.

I can't remember the name of it, but I know that they keep whining about how dead it is, so I'm sure they won't miss it if it's gone and they have access to all the US servers.

    Union = 140 online
    Defiant = 87 online
    Zukunft = 26 online
    Vigilance = 73 online

    I have just litterally logged on to all our servers to get those actual figures. This is our peak time. Please dont say it again like we are over reacting and a bunch of whiners.

    Edit: The above are blue side, so imagine villain side.

    Buffer with pvp flag turned off constantly buffs a player with pvp flag turned on. Instantly unbeatable combo.

    Now, with rep comments not easily visible, and without me being able to post those comments on the boards... it appears that my rep score is slowly going down the last few days.

    It appears that people are negging me now that would NOT have negged me before, possibly because the comments cannot easily be seen and possibly because I'm not bothering to go through all my posts to collect and post the neg comments.

    I find this fascinating that with even greater anonymity comes even greater negative behavior. Has anyone else seen this pattern, or is it just me?

    Just you My "rep bubbles" have gone up 2 stages since the comments went.

    To quote somebody . . . . .

    I suppose you could count the Halos and the Pumpkinhead, but thats about it. Every other costume has been put out in Booster packs, ever since they were first launched.

    Now don't get me wrong, I don't think there is anything wrong with booster packs, but it leaves a pretty bitter taste in the mouth when EVERY single costume is put through them.
    Artic, vines for a start

    BUSTED

    Edit: Some new faces as well i might add Also new hair styles were launched AFTER the first booster iirc

    Edit 2: That one my main character uses atm but for the love of me i cant name
  24. As i posted http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=198684 there, this sunday i'll be logging on to our cousins the french server and having some good old friendly fun with them all

    I'll be logging on at 1pm this sunday for the large majority of the day. So come and join me for some good old fashioned low level missions/fun + random competitions with our french community!

    Plus, it might be interesting to see just how good us players can actually use teamwork when we dont understand eachother [see just how good you really are!].

    So if you have access to the european servers then come and join us for some good old european interaction fun! I've been told they dont bite It'll be fun!

    Really? PvP is that important in this game? Ninja Run still suppresses so no love there.

    So where's the edge? Take the slippery slope all the way, Sam. What can the devs offer that is actually going to give some huge advantage to one player over another that doesn't buy it in THIS game.

    "But he got to the mission 15 seconds before me!"
    "Did they start killing things before you got there?"
    "Well, no...."
    "Guess it doesn't matter then."
    "Well this time they did!!!"
    "Then they were rude. That happens now."

    So what's the problem again?
    Slippery slope is stuff such as

    Buy an AT
    Buy a level
    Buy a recipe/salvage
    Buy a self heal power

    etc etc. BTW i dont mind little things like these as long as it doesnt affect my gameplay that much, keeps the majority happy and that i continue to get free stuff via issues. If i get all those then im happy
