  1. Just to make sure, you were running the Mac version under OSX, Snow Leopard?

    And I can't recall who it s that was the Mac Guru-type in the tech help section.

    A given edition's code can be applied only once.

    Yup. Feels like we're truly and completely in an online era now.
    Actually, as I recall, the worst thing about it was the magazines were doing fine.

    Wizards of the Ha$bro just decided they wanted them back for their online "Insider" service; Piazo seemed to be doing just fine with them :/
  4. I kinda glazed over Forbin's post, but just in case he missed it, once you upgrade you keep the remaining trial time but lose the trial restriction. And when you upgrade it will probably ask for anCC or timecard. On the CC it will not blll until the free time is over.

    Oh, some recommened paranoia - keep track of the gmae code & the last four numbers of the first card billed (or whole gamecard Number if a time card is used),

    AVs in RV

    Also, as far as I can tell, the pillboxes will follow their last order if able - so if you can pull near enough to a box, jump in, and tell it to attack your av of choice it can help.
  6. Then go do it

    It's a wiki after all

    And just to make sure, you're not on the wikia site, right?

    Yeah. Last night I was working on getting my oldest character to 50 and realized he was 80 months old.

    Which means in 1 month I get a free self rez, so I started to dance a jig.

    2 seconds later, I stopped and sat back down in my hoveround X.X
  8. They lasted longer, but had to be used proactively.
  9. Do those characters posses the first and second year anniversary badges, and thus the 5th Column Gladiator badge? That's tagged time travel.

    While it would seem reasonable to make a policy like that my son's experience tells me otherwise. Of course if they made it easy to reclaim the name or re-name on first attempt to login, then it would probably be ok. If they just deleted the characters that would certainly not be ok.
    Here's how the "Let's free up some names" script works.

    They set a level limit (originally it was up to 25-35-ish, not sure exactly; currently level 6 I believe).

    Goes through a list of accounts.

    Active? Skip.

    Active in the past 90 days? Skip

    Inactive for 90+ days? Examine

    Character at the level limit or higher? Skip

    Character below the level limit? Unresevere Name


    Unreserved names have the following effects :

    Character is dropped from Supergroups.

    Character Avatar (to show name is unreserved) no longer will show up on character select screen once the account is reactivated.

    If someone attempts to use the name while unreserved, they get it and the pre-existing character is Generic'd, IIRC.

    Once you reactivate, if a character's name has been unreserved you must log into that character to "re-register" the name if it's not been generic'd to prevent someone else from getting it.

    Prior to CoV, at least, Defender Shadow Fall had a movement (run, jump, fly) debuff.

    A couple interesting things:
    The different powers *seem* to be AT specific, since it's the same player pulling up the power, unless you could choose which AT you were looking at.

    The different powers are Auto, Single, Self powers, that means to me that they are always on the player, not pets or anything else, and cost no Endurance. ALthough, those might just be gap fillers.

    Lore Protection seems interesting, particularly if it's Auto. Is there a similar existing power right now?
    When viewing a power, it's always through your AT's mods. Even if it's a scrapper specific version of the power (has crits when other versions don't) and you are on a tank, for example.

  12. I believe the resolution and windowed/fullscreen settings are still fine, however.

    use the built in timers to the O-system?

  15. The options buttons at the bottom are the same/don't change with the tab.

    It covers pretty much everything not covered by the chat, window, and bind commands.
  16. On the Credit Card number, they only ask the type (Visa/MC/etc.) and last four (as that's what their records will show them.

    If the initial sub was via timecard then they want the whole thing.

    server?

    Note, it's not population but rather server load that determines the order. Slight difference but there is one.

    If you want to try it out, The Repeat Offenders Network is a cross server SG coalition found on Justice, Freedom, and Virtue. Mostly helpful people in there. And usually there is someone in there.

    Next time, please don't do this. Instead post what happened to resolve it (even if just "It resolved itself") in case later someone has the same/similar issue.

    Glad it worked out for you though.
  19. If your having issues with screen shots,'you can also go as close
    To the mission entrance as possible ( if you can fly, hover above) and type /loc into the chat - it will give you a trio of numbers for coordinates. Post those and how far from the marker you were when you /loc'd.
  20. HIT! Captain Nametest rakes 9999 damage from Nametest 2.0's Assassin Strike
  21. To be fair, Rise of the Phoenix is a legitimate attack power.
  22. The VEATs are Soldiers of Arachnos - there is no Arachnos, at least as it exists in Primal Earth - because Recluse was killed before getting to the well.

    As far as the HEATs go, there is no indication the Kheldians ever found earth.

    Therefore, starting an EAT in Preatoria doesn't makemany sense.

    The statement was misleading, however, as it implies other versions of the power cause damage without a proc.

  24. Only other way is to hope they give out some more free transfers.
  25. And I still have Spinerrette?
