    Must be my dodgy memory acting up there. *bonks head*

    The event that passed somthing like what I described took place a looong time ago, not too long after CoV was released and I tend to not bother with Kings missions these days.
  2. Reminds me of somthing that I've done once.

    Went to Shiny New Contact in kings row (forget his actual name, he's on a roof with a big metal ramp leading to him) with my New Awsome Blaster.

    SNC: "Go see David Wincott in the Hollows"
    NAB: "Huh. I just got sent to you for work, but ok. What the heck"

    Off I go to see David. I decide to head back to SNC.

    SNC: "Good job, now go and talk to the Perez Park Security Officer"
    NAB: "You sending me off to sombody else again? Ok, fine"

    Once more I trot off, this time I have to "arrest" some hellions in a zone thats designed for group play... with a squishy Blaster...

    Joy.

    A much scuffed and irritated NAB: "Ok, I'm back from your pointless run about mission. How about some real work?"
    SNC: "Sure, but first I want you to go and talk to the Bloody Bay-"
    NAB: "No! Enough! I've had it with you! I'm going to find a new contact! One with actual work!"

    I tune into my police scanner, do that hero thing and get a New Contact in Kings.

    NAB: "Hey there buddy ol' pal. got work for me?"
    NCB: "Yeah, I need you to talk to the Bloody Bay representative"
    NAB: "Ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff-"

    Micky Rooney's Cat?
    My Rash Chafes?
    Martian Reconnaissance Craft?

    ok I'll stop now...
  6. And the "Hero Apartments" idea is back with a vengance

    It's been suggested many, many times. While I do support the idea, it seems that it is unlikley to ever happen.
  7. Tempory powers that go unused are worthless.

    That said, here's the pargon wiki page on temporary powers, mentioning those which are re-obtainable: Temporary Powers

    Stop and just think about how much animation that would take. Walking, running, the new ninja run, travel powers, and everything that could be "animated" with that staff.
    I'd just like to point out that the work has already been done. We as players already have access to two staves via Veteran Rewards.
  9. yeah I wasn't including $target. I would have tried it myself if it wasn't for the fact I got the command not recognised message, usually when you dont include a target it tells you! ("string requires 1 arg you gave 0" etc.)

    *shrug*

    Well, personally I'd just open the options window, click on the keybind tab, find "Target nearest enemy" and alter the bind key. (personally I use C)
  11. I've occasionaly read on this forum that the command to see a players global name is /get_global_name and Paragon wiki confirms this.

    However i've just tried this out for myself, and all I get is a message saying the command is not recognised.

    Was this command removed? Is it broken? Or am I just doing somthing fundementally wrong with it?

    Oh, and then put timers on all the missions.
    My sarcasm detector overloaded and broke during day one of that task force, and the replacment has yet to arrive. But I'm going to go out on a limb and hit you upside the head with my pattented "Don't temp the Dev's, you fool!" cricket bat™

    It almost felt like it

    We started it sunday afternoon about 1:30 and continued until about 5:30 when sombody had to goto work (ok, it was me). Pretty much everybody else wanted a break anyway.

    I was supprised when I logged in this evening to see everybody back (they were discussing whether to continue it or not as I was leaving so I was in the dark about what was happening until this evening), dunno how much of it I missed but considering how repetative that TF was I think I may of come out of it ahead
  14. Do we win any prizes?

    Seriously though, I'm glad thats done and dusted. I don't think I'll be trying this TF again any time soon ¬.¬

    Watch out, she's sharp!

    I can haz demo man/woman pls
  16. I devided by zero


    OH SHI- *black holed*
  17. I've just checked my e-mail, and Station.com has sent me a messaeg saying there closing a big chunk of their servers, including Scylla which is the birthplace of my handle.

    I havent played SWG in years. Still I have a sensation of loss
  18. my 42 scrapper got 3.

    2 of them where debt badges *shame!*
  19. The origin of my name goes way back to when I was first introduced to the wonderful world of the MMORPG. Star Wars: Galaxies.

    You see, SWG had(has?) a random name generator, and when it came for making my first character I let it pick the name for me. It came up with Imeba Vil'Lan. Well I didn't like Imeba, sounded too much like amoeba. Changing the e to an o though just rang right in my ears.

    Imoba left such a great impression on me (Still my favorite avatar I ever made, even if the game he was in was lackluster) that I used his name as my handle ever since.

    Well that or on the rare occasion, Llawan, who was my second SWG character...


    EDIT: forgot to add that I decided against using Vil'Lan in CoH because it sounded an awful lot like villain, I chose Strife because I rolled a scrapper and it seemed appropriate.

    Fact: I'll shoot you with my "Healing Arrow" if you reeeeealy want to, but I doubt it would make you feel any better
  21. *Punches a pie*

    ...

    That's not what you meant was it?
  22. The dummies are present for me. Also I was able to hit the targets with Flashing Steel and Golden Dragonfly (both are PbAOE's), other attacks got the out of range message though.

    Nor did I know that the Witch Bare top was in any way controversial. It doesn't show more skin than, say, the Metal top.
    Indeed, it shows less skin than the Eden pattern tights

    Just say'n
    It's a shame SexyJ is prejudice against *ahem* "Furries" that he refuses to add more animal costume pieces.

    And since I always bring it up with tail suggestions, I want tails with robes
  25. Sweet, I may actually get this accolade now
