Quote:Ah, that'll do it alright. :/This thread started by BAB here http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=190820
Says he retired under location.
And yes, he'll be missed - let's hope whoever winds up replacing him will be able to fill his shoes well. -
Since I don't feel like going through the whole thread, looking for a Red name post... did they actually confirm it included BABs now?
Last I saw was theOcho's post about confirming the article (which states "possibly including BABs") was correct. >.> -
The rum was burned.
Damn you Elizabeth Swann! -
Quote:Nope, but I do like seeing someone and going "Hey! I know that name from the forums! Cool to actually see the character in game!"Does anyone really say to themselves "I really can't wait to get home to catch a glimpse of XXX." or "Wow, i got a tell from so and so..."

Quote:I always play it safe and buy the boosters through the most direct channel - the US page of CoH.I'm in the same boat, I'm fairly sure Avatea is wrong in the PM in this instance, maybe she's not. Either way I don't particularly want to be chasing a Ticket for 2 days to get it resolved if she is.
Things like Boosters used to be region locked a few weeks ago anyway, if they changed how it works for Boosters and Expansions they never bothered posting / explaining about it AFAIK, hence everyones confusion and relucatance.
Since I'm a European player with a US account the automatic region detection of the NCSoft site horribly discriminates against me, refusing to let me pick a US version on all the booster packs.
CoH Store
The links there take you directly to the US version of the product you want to buy! -

Never met you as far as I know, but I remember the character from reading VV when I transferred over to Virtue a couple of years ago.
Welcome back! -
-The Justice Girls
-Dauntless Reverie/Anathema
Both Supergroups with well established yearly community events.
-John Starkweather
At some point you just hear about his antics, either IC or OOC -

Quote:Arrrr, mateys, the dread Cap'n Windwolf here to tell you that Knightslayer has hereby been promoted to Cabin Boy! A round of grog fer me terrible henchmen in celebration!

((Thanks for the event Avatea, Qmasters, Ocho, and everyone else who was part of it!
))

Hah! A girl Vader! Awesome!
Have fun Mariel! -
It's a toss up between Power Armor (Iron Man, Beetle, etc...) and genetically engineered super soldiers (I blame Dark Angel for that one, curse you Project Manticore!).
But I have plenty of others too, robots, mutants, cyborgs... -
((I also gotta say I loved the portrayal of Shalice Tilman in your story Mind! That was one hell of a nightmare/memory.))
-
((That'd be a shame, as they have been a fun read so far. :/
Still, no reason you couldn't do both!)) -
RP events Redside would make for an interesting experiment Intel!
Most of the ones I've seen in game have been Blueside.
Also, welcome! -
Too sleepy to read the whole thing now, but based on the first couple of lines of your post I'd say you ran into godmodding morons. :P

Obviously there's the concept, my main reason for joining a certain S/VG is usually the concept - if I like what I read the gears get spinning and I'll either succumb to Altitis or go "Hey [character name] would be a pretty good fit for that group!".
Activity's obviously a good thing too, if there's no one around and nothing's ever happening (e.g. events) with the group it's pretty hard to get integrated with them. -
Yep, they seem pretty active as I've seen the name around the Isles quite often.

Quote:Yep, very much a risk vs reward thing.That's likely true. There are other reasons for not doing public events. Think about it from the point of view of an SG leader. I could:
1) Run an event for my SGmates and friends. At worst, it might not quite gel and we'll all skip it and try something different next time, no harm done. At best, it'll be freakin' awesome and everyone will have fun.
2) Run an event for the community. At worst, the influx of strangers and weird ego people will turn the thing into a total clusterf^$k, and even the tiniest mistake on the part of the event organizers will result in a thread on this forum screaming about what a-holes they are and how horrible they are for having invested time and effort into the community. At best, it'll be freakin' awesome and everyone will have fun except for the handful of dipsticks who didn't understand what the event was about and wasted the event organizers' time bellyaching at them in tells about it.
You tell me which sounds like the better choice.
As for the players described by Genia, every SG comes across a few of them eventually - and the situation tends to be irritating for both them and the group's leadership, who just can't seem to help get them involved no matter how hard they try.
Of course the reverse also exists, horrible leaders who expect their members to do everything (and get them lots of prestige in the process!).

I play them all, though my squids are probably the least played ones... I simply despise them at low levels, not to mention the annoying Voids/Nictus.

Name: Sin Enterprises
Currently Recruiting: Yes.
RP Level: RP-Heavy (( VG chat is IC, as are all the other chats except for things between parentheses or in the OOC global chat channel))
PvP Level: Casual, everyone's free to engage in it as much as they like.
Theme/Concept: Much like Umbrella Corp. from the popular Resident Evil series of video games and movies and Crey Industries within our very own Paragon City, Sin Enterprises is not without ulterior motives. While the aims of this organization may ultimately be well-intentioned, the means by which they are achieved is not. Sin Enterprises is run by ruthless twin sisters who despise corrupt government meddling, the petty gangs that would subjugate and trample entire neighborhoods and the ignorant Freedom Corps with their blindly faithful heroes. The Sin sisters suffer no guilt releasing a security detail to sweep the streets, "cleaning" it of social garbage.
Powered employees* are widely used to spread word among the gangs and various power groups that Sin Enterprises means business and to discourage any interference. Additionally, powered teams may be dispatched to demand restitution for such interference in business activities. More experienced teams are given additional instructions to "make an example" of any nuisances. These examples are expected to be violent, fast, and leave no direct connection to Sin Enterprises while leaving no doubt to any who knew the victims.
* All the player characters start as Powered Security.
Activity: Activity tends to vary, peak times are usually past 6 PM EST, though we have a several European members as well (mostly in the GMT +1 timezone).
Requirements for Membership: By application on the forums' Reception section.
There is no level restriction.
Leadership: Angela & Kira Sin
In-Game Contact(s): @Laughing Wolf, @Knightslayer, @Paxicon, @Melkhor, @Mrr'Shaw, @Conquerer Worm, @Onca (currently limited on in-game time), @Nitro-Girl (currently limited on in-game time)
Out-of-Game Contact(s): Feel free to send me a PM, or just contact one of the officers on the Sin Enterprises forums.
URL: www.sinenterprises.com
Other Details: We have a weekly AE RP event on fridays at 9 PM EST, though the slot might sometimes be used for an SF or RP event instead (but something will always be going on!)
Other than that the events tend to be spontaneous.
