    This. Exactly.
    Everytime.
  4. With this game getting up there in years...and eventually winding down, you would think they would throw us a bone and simply just increase our salvage racks storage capacity. Just another quality of life freebie before we close the book on this awesome game.
  5. Have fun and rack up the prestige and levels!

    I have a bunch of old toons from 2004 (with all 6 anniversary badges-woot!) stuck in the 40s I intend to work on.
    Although...
    I'm never in a hurry to get any toon to 50.
    I enjoy the journey too much.
    \m/
  6. This is totally awesome!
    I've been here since July 2004 and I'm proud of that!

    Thank you!
  7. Since I started in July 2004...

    ... never hit 300 or more badges on any toon
    ... never done a Shadow Shard TF
    ... never done a Hamidon raid
    ... never got the Task Force Commander badge

    ... hate getting my toons to level 50; cuz if I can't earn XP, I'd rather not play 'em; most sit in the 40s
    ... have a terrible case of Altitus
    ... love getting the 'ding'

    Signed up for another year of my favorite and only MMO!

    Permanent Ban

    Point is, unless your friend was doing something he knows was wrong, there's a very good chance that it was banned by mistake during that sweep. Be sure to convey to your friend the message not to panic, Ocho will help get it fixed. It was a day or so after I raised the issue that they got hers unlocked.
    This exact same thing happened to me a few weeks back and I've been playing steady since July 2004 and consider myself an outstanding polite, respectful, and friendly player who abides by all the rules.

    I called and emailed NCSoft and they said there were many accounts whose user names and passwords were compromised by some malicious hacker. After I verified a few different product codes to the customer service rep, they unlocked my account and all is well.

    Good luck.
  9. Hey all,

    For those of us stuck at school or work today and can't check the game ourselves, any chance the devs fixed all the server/patching problems we all seemed to experience this past weekend?

    Thanks.

    Time to dampen some spirits.

    I did some research, and checked the various News posts on the CoH main page. These are the results I got:

    4/27/09 - I15 Overview
    6/26/09 - I15 Launch
    7/15/09 - I16 Overview
    9/16/09 - I16 Launch
    2/24/10 - I17 Overview
    4/28/10 - I17 Launch
    8/17/10 - GR/I18 Launch
    10/5/10 - I19 Overview

    Looking at that pattern, an Issue Launch seems to come almost exactly 2 months after an Issue Overview is posted.

    Two months from 10/5 is 12/5, and that's a Sunday, so we need to add 2 days, since Launches seem to happen on Tuesdays.

    Using that patten, my expected Launch Date for Issue 19 is December 7, 2010.
    Excellent point.
    I'll jump on this band wagon.

    Maybe it was an omen.

    Bad Kheldians!

    Meanwhile...bring on Issue 19!!!
  12. So...what is the skinny?
    Did BABs indeed get let go?
    Has he emerged anywhere else yet?

    Anybody else that we may know from the forums, ie Red Name?
  13. Darn.
    I'm actually off work on a Thursday and can't play.
    Guess I'll go watch more Tosh.O.

    That is some really funny krap!
  14. Man, do I feel like a Putz.

    Here is the article quote:

    "...for now, all City of Heroes players should be happy to learn they have three new power selections to play with when 19 launches."

    Holy krap I was getting jizzed to think we were getting some new power sets again.
    Do I ever feel like a noob.
    No wonder I play mostly tanks & scrappers.
    :P
  15. Was just reading the short article over on massively.com from the PAX 2010 Sep 4th event, and it mentioned there will be 3 new power sets in I19.
    Anybody know what they are?

    Did I also read somewhere that there will be even more new power sets in Issue 20 perhaps?

    Thanks.
  16. I run and play in PuGs 100% of the time for life does not allow me the casual freedom to play my beloved CoH whenever I like.

    So, since I sneak or squeeze play time whenever I can, I play with PuGs...usually as the team leader.

    I do not like soloing.
    I really enjoy teaming and rarely run across any real idiots.
    I've been a PuGster for six years now...since July 2004.

    It's a MMO game, not a MSO game.
    :P

    - B.
    Dude...congrats. Honestly.
    That is one heck of a commitment to a MMO game.

    I started in July 2004 and intend to add another anniversary badge to my previous 5!

    Long live CoH!

    This.
    I've been a casual player since July 2004 because...

    "It's just a naturally fun game"


    Well said Edgewater.
    Bravo.

    So true.
  20. Any chance they will amend the silly exchange rate of influence to prestige at the SG registrar in City Hall?
  21. I've learned that it really is one purchase per day, per card.

    I also received the same message after I purchased one booster, then tried to purchase a second booster 5 minutes later with the same card, and also got denied.
    Then about 20 minutes later I went back into the online store and tried using a different credit card and *Poof*, it worked just fine.
    Two boosters purchased in the same day using two separate mastercards.

    I did the exact same thing when purchasing the GR prepurchase on March 2nd and everything worked just fine.

    Father & son accounts...woot.

    My first 50!

    Congrats!
    I remember how I felt when I finally got a toon to 50 after playing for 17 months and having close to 20 alts.

    Now I hate hitting 50 with any toon.

    For me, it's all about the journey and not the destination.


    CoH still rocks!
    \m/

    ~Loyal player since July 2004.
    And now that I moved the majority of my heroes to Freedom, the game has only gotten better for me.
    Woot.
