    IMO the Winter event is too long, but I just keep shut about it and let people have fun skiing. "This too will pass," I tell myself - and sure enough, it does.

    If I were running things CoX would have a full 30 Days of Night. Bwa-hahahaha!
    I don't know about the "30 Days of Night" part, but I really would like to see rain once in a while, maybe a snowstorm? for that matter a couple stray dogs and cats would be nice too. And all this fits in with the Halloween theme.
  2. For me it is the Bio boots, the ones that look kinda like skin with veins bulging out and can be duo colored to really make them POP out at you. I love those boots. It used to be I would try to find a way to fit them into at least one costume on every toon. I have since cut back on that, but I still love that costume piece. I just wish they would come out with that design on a cape.
  3. I think my biggest problem with the Wedding Pack is that I just can't find any costume pieces that I want to keep on a toon. Many times I have put them on a toon in the Tailor Shop, only to change it out because they just don't feel right.
  4. Thanks for the link, unfortunately though it told me I am not the only one, it was not very helpful. Still, nice to know it is not just my computer I guess.
  5. If all this extra stuf is in Issue 19, then I think they will manage to WOW me, which hasn't happened in a while now. Looks awesome and I can't wait to watch the video.
  6. To each their own opinion Captain-Electric. I will admit his post felt a little over the top but, he is welcome to have it as you are too. Besides which, if Paragon Studios were to follow his advice, they would easily improve their profits on this pack.

    While I don't do it often Nethergoat, I have to (apparently) agree and say the tip mission is the part I am most looking forward to.

    EDIT: I am also getting forcibly logged out pretty frequently lately. Anyone else having this problem?

    I'm sure that there will be record of old accounts being logged in but I bet most are like myself just cleaning up 2nd, 3rd or 4th accounts.
    Yea, I noticed that too.
  9. Awesome. Opening it up to anyone 13 and older is a great deal as well. I even have a double reason for being in that area at that time too. Might just make me a little side trip!

Please PM me your name as well as the minor's name if you are able to join us tomorrow night. Thank you!
    Awesome and definitely the right way to go.

    I just wish you had announced this a month ago so I could have used some frequent flier miles and a little bit of cash to buy three plane tickets. I don't have the cash for this at such a short notice though.

    Still, good call and thank you for the change Paragon Studios!

    No idea, but the Primal Earth costume pieces are accepted there at least. It is nice having two costumes for my toon there now.

    That is a very good idea in my opinion. Granted it would only knock off a little more that two days (2.1 to be exact) from the time needed to earn a day job, but still, would be a nice little treat.

So, with that said ... has this been changed ?

    And YAY halloween salvage ...
    I could hope they up it to 20% or even 25%. Still though, I am just stoked that Halloween is so close now.

    Ahhh. Thanks Cende. As you could tell, I was mystified. I think I will try harder to not use acronyms since they are not as universal as we sometimes think.

    Funny, cause I have read a lot of patch notes that come out after a Thursday "Maintenance". Still though, not worth arguing over in the end. What the heck is FWIW though?

    More vines/trees/flowers/bug/antlers/fin parts, please!

    Edit: From the i19 page:



    Very excited for this, but has integration become a set unto itself?
    Antlers? OMG, I never thought of ANTLERS! That would be SO cool. Just typing this I thought of 3 different concepts for toons. PLEASE GIVE US ANTLERS!

    I would love to agree with you, but they stealth "fix" things all the time. MOST of the time what they are fixing falls into the "exploits/cheats" category, but not always. A good example is that they never listed Praetoria getting a costume slot salvage vendor, but it happened.
  19. I don't have a problem with any of these fixes, but it seems that none of them, or even all of them put together, were really important enough to warrant a patch being pushed out earlier than the normal Thursday pushes.

    This begs one really big question - What were the stealth fixes that they are not telling us about?
  20. What is the thrill lately with people reviving dead threads? I mean, it was dead before for 2 months and then revived, then it was dead for over 3 months and revived again.
  21. And Nether goes back to the limp posts. Oh well, it was too much to wish I guess. Too bad really, that one post was pretty good.

    All the feel good jibber jabber about camaraderie and socializing is beside the point since even players who love to chat and socialize will, generally, opt to do so in the pursuit of adequate rewards for time invested.

    Yeah, people will run it 'as is' for various reasons.
    But many, many more would be running it if it delivered a more acceptable reward payload.

    There's no morality involved, it's just Gamer Psychology 101.
    They like rewards and they will ignore stuff that doesn't deliver.
    Now this is the reason I try to NEVER put people on ignore. While I disagree with you most of the time Nether and do not fully agree with you on this one, you do occasionally make a good point, as this one is. I just wish more of your posts were well thought out and argued like this one, instead of attacks on people you disagree with.

    On the SW most island in Imperial City. About 140 yards NE of the Tiberian Bluff marker. (Reposting this just to give clearer directions.)
  24. Hey FelicityBane, for someone that appears to be arguing for a little more reasonableness, you sure seem to be going about it the wrong way. Try making a well thought out argument to prove your point instead of attacking people.

    At this point you remind me of someone else in some of these threads . . . you wouldn't happen to be an Alternate account for Nethergoat would you? He also likes to make attack posts like this.

    So is this Paragon Studios way of deflecting blame for screwed up contest? If so, it's pretty weak. As the sponsor of this contest Paragon Studios has a responsibility to make sure it is run fairly under the guidelines they set up. It is the responsibility of the "partners" in this contest to make sure it is legally run in their areas.
