    Cat ears!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Almost everybody makes a catgirl at one point...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If you really look at the fine print, it's required in the EULA that you make at least one catgirl.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Damn, they're totally going ban my [censored] over this one, as I have no female characters, let alone a catgirl (before you ask, no, I don't have a catboi either).

    [/ QUOTE ]
    No, they'll just alter your main into one.

    lolAdelaide.

    At least we have trees.

    Seriously, from the top of a hill the whole damn city looks like a forest with buildings poking out. Tall, snobby and living in trees, we're clearly Australian Elves.
  3. Besides, if they start banning transgendered concept characters, RL rights movements might sue.
  4. My Mercs are all named after the cast of Apocalypse Now. Most people don't even realise that.

    Generally, naming MM pets is pretty unlikely to get generic'd. Making a reference is fine, the rule is supposed to prevent attempts at depicting a copyrighted character in the game.

    EULA Question

    I think the golden rule is that if there's nobody listening who'll get offended, you're fine. But don't assume that someone won't get offended in a public channel.
  6. Australian cities tend to be insanely spread out. Adelaide has 1 million people, but is the size of Los Angeles.
  7. At this point, they could implement the best PvP system in the world and PvPers would still be whining and leaving. It won't bring new people in.
  8. I really don't see the efficiency in griefing with Selfdestruct. It takes a half hour to recharge even when changing your build, and people are more likely to laugh than be annoyed.

    Going rogue

    All the Going Rogue content will be downloaded (or installed, if you have it on disc) by all players, but only the accounts that buy the expansion will be flagged to be able to use the exclusive content, I think. That's generally how expansions work anyway.
  10. I think it says something that the game's signature speedster is an Elec/Elec Blaster.
  11. Maybe someone just has inf to burn.

    Hmm while I don't house any real objections to having the height/gender changes limited to a paid for pack...

    ...I'd rather see them given as free to all the players (lets face it, it would turn Issue 15 from a 'meh' issue in most peoples eyes into a 'actually pretty good' issue)...

    ...AND I recommend replacing it with a perma-version of This power with a 30 minute recharge timer...

    because come on...everyone loves the vial of bees!

    After all...as Vernon says "Here, take more bees with you. You may need them," and need them we shall!

    I can't argue against this.

    I think everybody's shouted 'Allah Akbar!' while selfdestructing at least once. It's one of those things you can't resist.
  13. And Australia is technically the Commonwealth of Australia, but I think most of the people who live here don't know that.
  14. If anything, it gets much easier to solo the more you level up.

    13) Do the cops all hand out radios to every hero they can find as a means of reducing their workload?

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Take one look at Paragon City's streets. Those cops need all the help they can get.

    Which story arc says that Mako wasn't just evil to start with?

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Not sure about story arcs, but there's info on the official website detailing his origins- he grew up in an orphanage and was treated terribly.

    Think half of X-men villains.
  17. I trained to 50 at Proximo. I mean c'mon, he's named after a freakin' Gladiator character.
  18. THANK YOU for not using colours anymore. It's so much easier to read now.

    And it doesn't matter who's making the kills, XP and Inf is equally divided among the team (drops are randomly assigned), as is Prestige. Drops are randomly assigned, I think.

    I'm terrible at maths, so for all I know it may well be less Prestige to fight on a team, but if you have several members of your VG in the team, even if they're not the entire team, you'll be earning more Prestige, and the important part: [u]large teams defeat far more enemies much faster than a soloing character[u]. Time is money, and getting more done in less time generally makes more money. Of course, if the team is wiping on every spawn or two or just going slowly enough, you might be better off solo. It depends.
  19. What's the most KB protection you can get?
  20. Lately I've seen a lot of people say "The rules don't apply to me!" and then they have the rules applied to them.

    Ms. Liberty?

    One is the mother of the other. I believe Miss is the mother and Statesman's daughter.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Yup.

    Maiden Justice = Monica Richter, Statesman's wife, Lord Recluse's sister, who is deceased as of the 1980's
    Miss Liberty = Alexis Cole, Statesman's daughter, still alive and presumably well.
    Ms. Liberty = Jessica Megan Duncan, Statesman's granddaughter (remember, he ages very slowly), our resident Atlas Park cutie and founder of Longbow (against her mother's disapproval).

    [/ QUOTE ]Worth pointing out. Statesman is Recluse's brother-in-law, and the Atlas Park trainer is his grand-niece

    [/ QUOTE ]And like every other dispute in life, the true origin is worthy of being on Jerry Springer.

    Superhuman Jerry Springer.

    And let's not even bring Dominatrix and Tyrant into this...
  22. Yeah, one of the reasons I end up petitioning people is because they usually deserve it.
  23. Self-destruct should have totally come with this pack.

    Yes, I hit it by accident last night.

    TF "Must Haves"?

    Although, last time I assembled a Task Force, it was Numina and we were all mindful of the Monster fight at the end.

    Luckily, a few players had Controller alts they could switch to, which proved to be very useful during the final battle.

    Yes, some ATs and powersets are particularly useful on a TF, but that doesn't mean you have to exclude people. If you think you're gonna need something, bring it yourself.
