If you could get the video card from either Option A or C and put them on Option B, I would go with Option B myself.

So I'm in before the lock, right?

Can you let us know if there will be significant hardware requirement increases with the new expansion?

[/ QUOTE ]
That's a good question. I wonder if there will be any graphical updates to regular CoH/ CoV, like there were for CoH when CoV arrived.

[ QUOTE ]
when people who were in your sg/vg log back in and steal all the ios in your base....awesome.

[/ QUOTE ]
That's jacked. Keepin people on the SG roster in good faith, then have them jack your crap. Not very cool :/

My wife and I were affected by this too. When I tried to republish one of my arcs, I couldn't, but there were no errors, until I checked up mission one-at-a-time and noticed that I couldn't use this map any more. Hope it comes back soon.

Very simply, as others have suggested, ratings from those who complete an arc should have more weight than those that don't. Perhaps one "completion" rating could be worth two "non-completed" ratings. The smiley face idea, IMHO, is awful. It doesn't give me an idea of what arcs are better/ worse than others.

I want to feel your wrath LaserJesus. If you have any time, my arc is always up for consideration by any reviewer. Info is in my sig.

You know, this is almost certainly not the case, but here's a paranoid spin: What if NCSoft were selling partnerships that RMT companies could buy?

That's a tin foil hat award, sir!

That's extremely weird, have you petitioned a gm to look into THAT?

[/ QUOTE ]

Absolutely.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think that is worthy of more than a petition. I would seriously recommend PM'ing one of the devs directly.

[/ QUOTE ]
Indeed. If what you're saying is true, it could be Bug Hunter worthy.

[ QUOTE ]
We have too many servers for COH/V. Drop em to 5 so theres a real population in each one rather than 2 or 3.

[/ QUOTE ]
How about, instead, we figure out a way to spread the population of Freedom and Virtue across more servers? Just a random thought I haven't given much consideration to.

Ah, you both are making the common fallacy of "I know it when I see it."

[/ QUOTE ]
Can't I just report it and let a GM decide?

[/ QUOTE ]

Can't I just report lame stories and let the GM decide about that?

Can't I just report mission with baddies that I feel are overkill and abusive?

Why don't we ALL just report EVERY SINGLE mission that we don't like, just to see if the devs will be OK with taking it out?

[/ QUOTE ]
What a false analogy. We're talking about reporting possible violations of the EULA, not personal taste. I wouldn't call security just because I don't like the color of one's car. I mean, I could, but that would get me in trouble for abusing the system.

Speaking of which, one can get in trouble for abusing the report system, so I suppose one could report as much as one wanted, if one wants to get in trouble oneself.

Or they should just bring it back so it can be done.

That's an easy enough thing to say in such general words

I don't think you owe the author any follow-up Venture. Some may consider it a false analogy, but published critics in periodicals don't respond to a director, producer, or studio's questions or arguments when they review a film. Frankly, if the author isn't ready for criticism, constructive or no, he or she shouldn't put his or her arc up for review on this thread.

Ask for a review, but it is what it is. Don't become hostile because one critiques your arc and you aren't pleased with the outcome, demand answers, etc.

If you desire, add the label "TMARC" to your Mission Description to make your arcs easier to find by fellow Triumphants!

Red_Tape? RoboBug?

Welcome to a month ago

But seriously, I might be for an increase in the files size, but it already takes my 100kb arc file over 10 seconds to republish when I fix a spelling error :/ I would be more afraid of arc corruption with a large file.

Something about the forums today seems wrong.

This would have to happen when I was posting a great (but borrowed) idea on my server forum

I've Been petitioning for equality for monstrous legs for years no - Jay is sexy, and great to hang around with at Denny's at 2am, but I still have no kilts or loinclothes for my monstrous creations. Alack, it's merely because he'd have to do a lot of recoding and geometry stuff for one set of legs. I understand his PoV, but it's still on my wish list

<QR>

Didn't even realize these emotes were in the pack until I read this post. These are just sweet, addicting icing on the cake

This is probably one of the best packs ever. It doesn't have just a new cape... it has a whole new cape system practically.

Welcome, but if you've been here before, why don't I remember you? Are you using an existing account renamed, or have you indeed returned from points unknown?

<Confused>

Wait... Crickette?!?!

No....

Ah, well thanks for the clarification Z_M Honestly don't know why I can't remember The_EMPaler from seasons past. Apologies, but welcome back!
