  1. Weeell, considering they marketed the loyalty-beta-majig in the EU as much as they did in the US, they'd better come through on it or they'll have another angry EU-player dogpile to deal with.

    I don't think they'd make that error again but the little cynical part of my brain can see them somehow managing to.
  2. Stumbling into minefields here, you are. Server merges are a hellaciously touchy topic around here, if only because names are server-unique and people are rather attached to them. Server list merges (sticking the US and EU lists together) are becoming a popular idea though.

    Story arcs kinda hapen by themselves if you keep doing missions from contacts. The later ones are a lot better than the early ones in most cases, since they were made when the writers/devs had more experience to draw on.

    Welcome to ze game also! Almost forgot mah social graces there.
  3. hmm... Denmark! Belgium!

    because I have been to both. I be well-travelled-May? O.o
  4. A thing! Whynot, sez May.

    Lessee...

    the Isle of Man! because I went there once.

    Aaaand...

    Switzerland! because I have a friend who is from there. Why she came to live in the UK from there is mysterious!
  5. So I gets back from doing Stuff™ and this is what I finds. Holy carp that's pretty, lass!

    [/scotsMay]

    Seriously though, awesome so very much. Impressiveness!
  6. Poking through the shiny new creator for I16 has made something abruptly obvious. Some of the lists are nicely organised, usually in alphabetical order, and some are very much not (lookin' at you, shoulders and gloves!) Can we get them all organised alphabetically maybe? Would make it easier for spazzes like me to find stuff.

    If stuff wants to be grouped you could use different names - tails could become Tail - Demon, Tail - Cat and so forth so they stick together.

    Aaaand while I'm at it, can we give the standard-cape brooches some names? Brooch 1 through Brooch 58 is uninformative and makes it tricky to find a particular one short of going through them all. o.o

    This is called common sense! With compex software like this, things could go dramatically wrong before, during, or at any point after patching yet before putting the servers up. Not announcing it in advance is better than announcing it, something falling over and having to pull the patch off again to doubtless nerdrage from the playerbase.
  8. Firstly, this isn't a democracy, it's a mostly-benign dictatorship. Whatever NCSoft says goes.

    As for the actual thing, I can sort of see how this could be done but without the tools to play with (maintainance!) I couldn't say exactly. If not, maybe something that got changed since the mission was made?

    Gifts from Pyro

    Neat! That last one could be a hippie campaign medal or something.

    Scooter Art

    Self-improvement FTW! I also practise drawing occasionally, I just don't get any better at it when I do.

    Anywho! Here be images of some sort if you feels like using them!

    Can't say I agree with ya on the boring thing.

    As for the rest, she is generally, yes, but she has a serious side too and that reflects it pretty durn' well. Aaaaactually, it looks almost identical to my mental image of an older, possible-future Jane that I've only really told one person about - and I'm fairly sure it wasn't you. Uncanny!
  12. Pers'nally I don't critique much because I'm so much not an artistic person I almost wrap around the other side - I can mostly tell when something is off but I can only very rarely put into words what it is, unless it's obvious. I knows what I likes though, and I'll praise that.

    Other than that, +n to the civility thing.
  13. I be simultaneously sneaky and surprisingly slow and stumbled over a familiar-looking thing!



    Why not in thread, Cashoo-lady? tis pretty! Would have missed it altogether had I not been randomly wandering deviantart today.

    Also thankies much for doing it! ^.^
  14. Just to contribute data, north of England, little to no noticable lag on EU servers for weeks now. Conclusion: this is the fault of the Internet as much as/more than the servers, specially since my connection is, well, not the best available, shall we say. (curse ye, TalkTalk, ya demons! *shakefist*)
  15. Actually you do, but it's easily-ignorable text in the level-up trainer text (that normally says nothing useful).

    Making it more obvious is an initiative that I can support!
  16. And ze last domino falls, if belatedly. Corruptor guides update ahoy!

    CORRUPTOR GUIDES


    This thread is for posting Guide or FAQ links for Corruptors. Please create your guides in the "Player Guides" forum (since posts in that section do not roll off) and link the thread here. Also, do not post your guide in this thread - only the link to your guide. For non-Corruptor guides, check the master list of all Guides in the Guide to Guides.

    If you wish to submit a Corruptor guide to the list, please place the link in this thread. We cannot sift through the hundreds of individual threads to find a posting, so be sure to 1) place your guide in the "Player Guides" forum, nowhere else and 2) post a link to it in this "Corruptor Guides" thread!

    Guide to Guides

    ZM fixed the link-list he made, which is what he could reasonably be expected to do. Links within guides are the responsibility of the person who wrote that guide, and the lists of guides are done by whoever volunteers their own time to fix them, as myself and others have done for everything except apparently Corruptors. I am slowly compiling the links for Corrs, but I'm busier than I was when I did the others so it's taking longer.

    EDITZ: Corruptors and thus all the AT guide-to-guides are done, pending one last OP-update.
  18. More cool-artz!

    The power of adorable compels ye! *cracks cute-whip*
  19. Oo... further prettiness! More and more impressive all the time, is this. *nod*

    Also! Updated/changed picturelinks wayback on page-1 thar. Itink either photobucket was not co-operating or I made that link wrong, cause when I tried it it didn't actually work, heh. I am totally competent at internet use, honest!

    Anywho, now there be several characters from which to pick, any of whom would be awesome if you feels like doing that!

    edit: hey, they's in my sig too, forgots to mention. What the heck is wrong with my brain today? *sleepwalks off*
  20. Antivirus type stuff isn't my forte... I uses avast ATM and it seems to work pretty well but I had no real reason for picking it. o.O

    As for filtering software, a parent I know uses this software-shaped thing and hasn't complained about it that I've heard.
  21. Totally not the thread for it, I know, but that link makes Firefox whine at me about 'untrusted connection' as indeed does the entire Virtueverse site.

    To actually contribute in some way, thar be a linkie to various references in ze signature, and more are beink added when I get 10 minutes to do them (it's rare, but it happens! Occasionally! >.>)
  22. Like I've said in several places now, woahpretty! Thankies rathermuch!

    In spirit of thread, I be stuck. Don't really have many marketable skills that could apply to this beyond semi-competent fiction writing, but who wants that when there are actually-good writers around?
  23. Is good from what I be readin' thus far, yus. (yes, I read fast. )

    Firefox here seems to want to save it as an unopenable '.pdf_' file though. Fixable easily enough but weird. o.O
