    Just under a pound more for 2 English servers, 1 french and 1 german...basically 24 accessible slots if you don't speak French or German.

    As opposed to 12 English speaking servers.

    Hmm.
  2. Hmm. On occasion I am found wandering about.

    But I have sacrificed myself to our American overlords so my sleeping pattern is shot.

    Indeed.
  3. Ah. An EUer.

    Let me sum this up for you.

    Paying -Less- per month (seriously, Pound and Euro still trump the US Dollar and the cost is bizarrely the same with a different currency, wtf?) for more servers and thus more slots.

    Hi there!

    Reformed villain here. Try playing the last arc redside and give me an appropriate response. Have never been anything but honest with what I am and if that's not good enough for you then 'lulz, is that near Atlas Park?'
  5. My name is Flea and I approve of this thread.

    ....Freaking want pistols already damnit.
  6. Meaningful RPs?

    For my characters?

    Never!

    (Actually, the answer is yes. Self destructing via Godzilla vs. Destroyah style meltdown in the face of a god is clearly epic in itself. Anyone who says otherwise simply does not understand and lacks a dramatic soundtrack of their own.)
  7. I still find it hilarious the second word was 'Bah.'

    Welcome to Virtue. We may be full of whiners, drama queens and self important jackasses, but thieves are few and far between.

    And some of us even give away free stuff. Yay stuff, right?
    Yeah. They'd actually steal it and run on Victory.

    I'm NOT a dev!!!

    What Pratz Said.

    Though if you run around shouting IGNORE ME you may start to earn back some kudos.

    Let it be done.

    He's not a Dev. Honest.

    (Oh snap, and a dig at my old global name to boot.)

    Seriously, he's not.

    Who returns once more. After reformatting his entire damn hard drive and doing a clean install of windows.
  12. So. Consider me morbidly fascinated by this. I may go along.

    Har. Then I will. Expect stuff for Var, Alex, Dani, Fox and Anky later on then.
  14. Since I totally missed the beginning I will say it is shiny and I may post something later on. When I return drunk. Very drunk. Drunk in the snow.

    Actually, scrap that.

    The problem being that time Pacific is some 8 hours behind GMT.

    Which essentially means that an 11 pm start is the equivalent of 7 am.

    Sorry, work on Mondays.

    Fridays or Saturdays are fine, but not Sunday to be honest as that's practically Monday for me.
  17. Oh hell. I'll offer a DB/SR into the mix, a very capable survivor in itself as well for the MoSTF and for a Khan as well.
  18. Yes. You need help.

    I don't think we're qualified to give you the help you need.

  22. Well, this has been a while.

    A traceroute for all servers reveals a -total- packet loss for all connections to the following IP.

    195.66.224.167 - This is a London Network Exchange (LINX) server owned by PCCW Global.

    At first I thought this may be just a one off, odd issue. But I have been noticing abnormally high ping rates and tonight, obscene packet loss that just makes the game virtually unplayable.

    A bit of Google-search fu reveals that this issue is not isolated. It pops up with relation to Aion. It pops up with relation to Guild Wars. It even crops up in old threads relating to Lineage and Lineage II.

    Notice the pattern. In SEVERAL cases over the past two years the following emerges:

    It's the same IP. Same server. Same company.
    All the games and connections affected are PlayNC based.

    Attempts to contact their customer support fail horribly. Our own ISPs can't really do anything as the problem is there at a source, rather than on their ends. PCCW's tech support is the most customer unfriendly thing I have come across.

    I post this here to flag it for those Europeans or anyone else unfortunate enough to have them in their connection chains who play on the US game. My friends are in the states. I have 63 months of paid time. Multiple characters on multiple accounts. And right now I can barely even log before the packet loss brutalises me.

    Any other Europeans having this issue? Please, net route it and see if that IP crops up like a devil.

    Devs...Tech Guys....help us. You're our only hope.
  23. ....Why can I see Ankylus having stuck one of these posters onto the side of a DE monster?

    The Flea Option

    Seriously, where the hell did these options all come from?

    Log in.

    Play the damn game. See folks long forgotten. RP. PvP (wait, no). Have fun.

    That is the option.

    Just don't get a damn cold.

    Fething winter.
