    Wish I could have been there myself but Im stuck working EMS (Emergancy Medical Service) tonight so I missed the "fun"

    There was no way everyone could've seen it. There'll be several videos and a comic book recap of it according to LH's announcement. Plus there's loads and loads of pics already posted both in the Screenshot section and General.
  2. I can't find it right now, but it was suggested (I think in the General section) for the event itself to be added as a cutscene to a flashback mission. That way, everyone could see it, and without the spam.

    Dunno if that'll ever happen. I mean, it was suggested a few minutes ago for an event that happened a few hours ago so it might be awhile before it could happen but, it's been suggested.

    If anyone else has ideas for better implementation or a way to work it into a mission like flashback, hollar.

    For those of you that don't know Sean Fish, Manticore, has been a major influence for the City of Heroes & Villains stories. He explained to me recently that he and his wife Jen, Sister Psyche, have found a new way each year to renew their vows.

    This year we were able to help them attain this romantic tradition in a virtual space.

    I want to do something similar with hubby but since I'm such a spoiled princess, we'll be doing it on every 10th anniversary. I mean, it's not like we can afford to go to Ireland, Hawawii, Australia, Japan, China, Germany and every other location that pops into my head to renew our vows in the regions' traditional manner.

    Would that I could though...

    I set my character up *immediately* when I heard about it, and still waited over an hour for the event, which was quite fun. Disorganized? Yes. But fun none the less. If you can't have fun standing around shooting the breeze with 400 of your favorite players, then ... I dunno what to tell you.

    Heh, I set up in Pocket-D and tried to answer questions (goofed up globals a couple of times, sorry) until a headache drove me away from my monitor.

    So far I am throughly disappointed in the whole wedding setup. For one they should have included a link directing people to the information on accessing the Test Server. It has taken me all afternoon to get the info and now there is not enough time for me to download the client to see the wedding. Second who's bright idea was it to limit the number of open slots to only 100 people and only 3 hours of repeats? You have a game with thousands of players and you present an event that not even a 10th of them will ever get to see. Not exactly the best move. As for the wedding mish it is just another standard warehouse mish. Ho hum boring. I run the same mish ever day for my normal contacts. I have also heard several people mention that the new "Wedding" items are nothing more than slight revamps of older costume peices. It seems to me that for an event as big as this that it should have been well planned and made avaliable to all players. It is obvious that the entire thing was poorly planned and executed. What ever were they thinking?!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    They were likely thinking that the people who thought that having the actual devs that recently got married in real life, do it again several times over and and over again for the people who would care enough to show up might enjoy the effort. Probably thought the ones who didn't really care for the event wouldn't bother showing up.

    So sorry if having a bunch of actual people put on a show just for you wasn't good enough.

    I double checked both my login to the forums and NCSoft. They have the correct email address. I double checked both my PC and My laptop, no sign of the emails. The last emails I received where the thanks for purchasing wedding pack, and the upgrade email. I didn't receive a notice about double xp or the wedding/spring fling. I had a conversation with a long time vet, wednesday morning about the wedding edition. They new nothing about didn't get an email either. So its not just me.

    Woot-1st time a red named quoted me.....I think 8P

    LH, I am a long-time vet and my experiences match what is being described above. I don't think I've received an email other than purchase/upgrade confirmations for about a year.

    The issue is not client-side. There is something wrong with your bulk email distribution. Have your people check it and don't just assume that the problem is our fault.

    I find myself incredulous at the fact that I'm arguing for getting bulk mail, lol.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Your email service might have them grey listed. When they send an email your service would bounce it back. They have x amount of time to retry, which would be accepted and they would be added to the list of "good" sites. Many bulk email systems(and spammers) dont retry after the first attempt. They would never be allowed on the "good" list. When you purchase an add on, it likely is acknowledged by a different service.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I've gotten all other mailings and newsletters from CoH except this one. I haven't changed any settings. Just thought it was something NC might want to know about, that's all.
  7. The only thing in my junk folder is an ad from Party City. Not to be confused with Paragon City.



    I didn't get a Valentine's Card from Paragon.
  8. [ QUOTE ]
    I have a specific folder in my inbox for COH related things, so I know I never miss em. Hope you get it, though it's just exactly the same as the Announcement page thing

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah, I'm just hoping it's not a glitch in their system. That'd suck for those that don't visit the forums or click the links in the updater.

    I think you need to look into your emailers. I haven't changed email addresses since starting CoH nearly 45 months ago, and I didn't get a double xp mailer or wedding package/Valentines day mailer, either. I am not alone on this. Surprisingly, I did buy 1 Wedding package and got 2 emails, 1 verify the purchase and 1 saying my account was upgraded. Oh and if I thought it was really worth buying, I would have bought 2 one for my second account that's nearly 36 months old.

    You need to correct your email with NC then, or *sign up for the emails* because it IS an option you can decline. You may have simply checked the "don't send me any info" at the outset. Go back and check for it, I'm not quite sure exactly where to look since I've always got those things coming in

    Of course all you otherwise need to do is sign up for updates from places like MMORPG.com or wherever else that spams the same news 15 minutes later

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'm signed up for emails but I haven't gotten this one yet. No, they don't usually go to my spam folder and I'm still getting responses from support when I /bug something.

    I'm thinking of letting a little bit more time pass, till right around the 24 hour mark then letting Ex and the support guys know.

    At no point in your rambling, incoherent post were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought.

    Par for the course.

    Really. I mean, the day I have something people could consider a "rational" thought is the day that Pigs finally reach level 14 and take the "Flight" power.

    Unless those pigs started during the winter event and have a jetpack at level 1.

    Dun dun dunnnnnnnnnn.

    At which point, when the Moon Zone finally arrives, we shall see...

    *grumbles*

    ...must wait 24 hours before updating second account.


    WTF?!

    I know you guys try to protect against credit card fraud and all that, but for future packs, could you find a way to to sell us more than one unit in a single purchase? Maybe not a dozen all at once or anything, but at least a number equal to our game accounts on any given PlayNC account?

    So if someone has 3 CO* accounts, he can buy 3 upgrades simultaneously.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Agreed.

    However, it is better now. Used to be a month wait when trying to buy a second GvE code for my second account.

    Hey, NCSoft, how about rewarding customers with multiple accounts with the ability to manage those accounts AS A WHOLE?

    Ah, they're probably afraid we're triple boxing farmers.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'd love a 'Family Plan' for managing mine, hubby's and the extra accoutns we have. I let my 11 year old on my second account depending on his grades.

    Seriously <3 a family plan. The family that games together and blasts baddies together...

    Bulk discounts for families with more than one account please.

    Pretty please.

    I'll even get on a knee.

  17. Can we talk about bulk discounts? Please? Or discounts for several accounts in one family? Hubby and I both want it, and if we do it for all of the accounts, that's $60.00.

    I would but I'm checking on some bids at the Black Market right now. Should I pencil in the mass zapping for Monday?

    Quick question, is it locked right now? I'm in Lady Grey and the Rikti with the key ran through the door and won't come back. Figured I'd hit the forums whilest awaiting the GM. Then I saw this thread and now I'm worried they can't log in. Amusing yes but kinda annoying too.
