More steampunk style items. (on that note, why does the copper alembic tank cost 5000 prestige, but the steel one is 100 prestige?)

Tech walkways.

Decorative versions of the energy and control items including decorative versions of the auxiliary items. (Why? Because I want a friggin' computer terminal that isn't attached to a giant workstation or a wooden desk. Yes, I can have LCD screens on desks, but it's missing a keyboard and such.)

Truly stackable stairs that don't clip into each other.

Spiral staircases (stackable).

well.... crap.

Okay, I've seen the balconies, corner things, and bridge in the arcane group of decorative items, but are there no tech versions of the same?

Praetorian Richter is dead? Aw, nuts.

*nod* I'm on the Dual Pistols bandwagon too. Already got a name reserved, planned out some of his build, his costume....

I really want to get Slide on some of my characters, but I doubt I ever will. If only they would offer it as a purchasable code on the website....

Over in the "Development" sections of the forums, there is a sub-forum called "Developer's Corner". There is a lengthy (and I mean lengthy) thread about Costume Part requests. It would be where you request anything you would like to see added in terms of costume parts/hairstyles/whatever.

There is also a thread on customized weapon options, which runs a good number of pages as well.

Now, I'm going to let you know, the whole "backpack/jetpack/etc." thing has been brought up many times before. The reason why there aren't any permanent costume parts for the back area (notwithstanding capes) is that there are issues with where the items "hook" onto the character. (For an example of what I mean by this, if you use the Raptor Pack from the first Safeguard mission on a normal body character, it appears to attach to the back of the character, but if you use it on a huge body character, it sinks into the back.)

It's also a general assumption that at some point in the future, probably not until after Going Rogue releases, that we will be able to apply the same sort of customization options to Pool Powers that we already have for most Primary/Secondary powersets.

Anyway, the Developer Corner forum is the place to ask about these sort of things.

Invasions still can be triggered by completing the Lady Grey TF. I believe the way it works is if it's an all-Hero team, one random Hero-side zone gets invaded, if it's an all-Villain team, one random Rogue Isles zone gets invaded, and if it's a mixed team, one random zone from either side gets invaded. (It might be one of each, I'm not sure.)

As for scheduled invasions, I don't think there's any more planned for 2009. The Winter event should keep us all busy enough. :P

Thanks! Found it in Options->General Tab, Miscellaneous section.

Am I imagining things again, or was/is there a way to turn off exp gain?

Wait... Praetorian Recluse is dead? Where's that mentioned?

Next week I get the 27 month vet rewards.

Curse you, WoW! If it hadn't been for you, I would be further along....

Okay, I understand that if you beat the city-zone Winter Lord GM, he drops a present, which a few minutes later you can click on to go to the Winter Realm. There's a timed event there to beat the Lord of Winter GM (or is he just called Winter Lord again? I don't remember), but how the heck are you supposed to deal with all the "Northern Lights" spawns? I swear, I targeted one of them and it was "Unaffected" by everything I did. (Okay, it's possible that was from when the Winter Lord was phased out.)

Was I missing something?

Oh, and what do you get if you beat the GM in the Winter Realm? Just more merits?

I'd like to see Boomtown get revamped as the Fifth Column makes it into their major headquarters. What? You didn't think Reichsman was defeated for good, did you?
