  1. Thank you and everyone who ever worked on this game, Melissa. You are all in a class by yourselves.
  2. For those people who're interested in a Magic-themed RPSG, I am the leader of The Guardians of Magic. I'm always looking for roleplayer intersted in helping us grow and creating new adventures with us. You can find more info about us here.

  3. In response to the Most Attractive Male NPC thread.

    Who're your picks for most attractive female NPC in game?
  4. Q22: When I'm placing decorations, how do I put things on top of other things?
    A22: Practice.


    This doesn't help me. How do you put bottles and jars on top of desks? There has to be a way.
  5. *Name: The Guardians of Magic (updated)

    *Currently Recruiting: I am currently recruiting new and veteran roleplayers for a newly-formed SG. Our numbers are growing and I've constructed our new base.

    RP Level: Mid-to-High level Roleplaying, casual

    PvP Level: Casual.

    *Theme/Concept: The Guardians of Magic is an organization of various magic users and beings who've come together to preserve magic and prevent its corruption by the forces of evil. It's membership consists of everyone from true magic-users, warriors wielding magic arms & armor, demigods, extradimensional entities and even sentient constructs such as golems and living suits of armor. Together, these beings do battle with groups such as the Circle of Thorns, Banished Pantheon, The Carnival of Darkness, and others of their kind.

    *Activity: Due to the relative newness of the team, there's no info available at this time.

    Requirements for Membership: A character with a Magic origin is preferred, but most other Origins are permitted with a feasible backstory. (Tech for instance, could be magic tech.)

    *Leadership: Current leader of the Guardians is Blindseer

    *In-Game Contact(s): @CeeGee

    *Out-of-Game Contact(s): Mr_Astounding.

    URL: www.theguardiansofmagic.guildportal.com

    Coalition(s): I'm currently seeking out other like-minded and/or themed SGs to be our allies.

    Other Details: This is a great opportunity for those looking for a new SG, or who are interested in working to help create a large and active SG from the group up. I'm seeking active and serious membership for this group. If you can put in the time, so will I.
  6. I'm having serious trouble logging in and viewing pages on VV lately. Every time I try to log in or goto a page, it takes forever and eventually times out. Any ideas what's wrong with it?

  8. Hey everyone. I'm working on a special project for a Virtueverse page compiling a list of various nicknames and slang terms for the villain groups of City of Heroes. If you ever used a particular name for a villain group or member of a group, please feel free to include it here so I can add it to my list. Here's some examples of nicknames and slang words I've used in-game:

    Here's the list. Please feel free to add your own to it: http://virtueverse.net/wiki/Virtueverse_Slang


    Brasshats: name for Nemesis Army soldiers. See also Nemesissies

    Steambritches: nickname for the Archvillian Nemesis. See also Ole' Steambritches

    Pressure Cooker: name for the various Nemesis Jaeger robots

    Shovelhead: derogatory name for the Rikti. Refers to the broad, flat headcrest common among the species.

    D&D geeks: Circle of Thorn Mages. See also Harry Potter rejects.

    G.I. Jerks: Malta Operatives
  9. About three years ago, I helped in the formation of a Supergroup based off the COH canon individuals known as the Nuclear 90. However, because of past problems with my co-founder leaving, plus my real life obligations getting in the way, I stepped down from it.

    Sometime has passed and I'm trying to revitalize that group and locate some of it's current members to see about getting back in charge. If you were a former member of Nuclear 90, please contact me in-game through my Global:

    @CeeGee

    Welcome to the place that did it first and continues to do it best.
  15. Yeah, I figured that was the issue. I'm sure VV will be back up soon enough.

All this means to me is Going Rogue won't be out till September or October. Another 6 months with no real new content to play. I'm over it. Email me when you quit beating this outdated dead horse and start making CoH2.

    Oh, boo-frickety-hoo! No one's forcing you to play the game. However, if you leave, make sure to free up any name's you've been holding for a long time so that rest of us can pick at your corpse like the vultures we are.

    Thanks

    * Guild Description: We're a Roleplay supergroup whos member all have the shared origin of being one of the Nuclear 90; 90 children from around the world all born in one year with an unusual mutation that gives them natural magnetic nuclear fusion reactors for hearts, and the ability to channel energy from their internal reactor for a variety of super powers. If you wish to join us, there are a few criteria to meet.

    1. Mutation origin only. No exceptions
    2. Character should be between 17-18 years old. (That's the character, not the person playing them.)

    We're still young and in the developmental stages. We have a base and a great architect. We're looking at the moment to have a group of 30 active players right now. If you're a good roleplayer and interested in joining us, please contact either of the above mentioned officers in game, or send them a PM.
