I don't know, I can't cite the source at the moment, but at one point, the devs said that they would never give away anything that people paid for, in relation to people asking for stuff like some of the add-on pack perks as veteran rewards.
[/ QUOTE ]
They may have said it, but it's not true at all. The travel power effects, for instance, not to mention some of the temp powers like Sands of Mu and the Ghost Slaying axe were part of a very early booster pack or "special edition" or something.
That being said, I'm sure there'll be some mealy-mouthed rationalization/cop-out on the part of the dev team as to why those particular ones don't count, but there you have it.
[/ QUOTE ]
Travel power effects? You mean the Non-DVD Edition Presitage Sprints? You didn't pay extra for those, unless your store robbed you. You merely paid early.
You don't get the DVD Edition's Power Slide because you did pay extra for that.
Sands and the Axe have never been in any pack - they are merely regular temp items already in game (both hero side). -

Sometihng that bugs me is when you rescue certain heroes, and they end up being more powerful than you are.
[/ QUOTE ]
When you rescue a hero, you don't just break his jailors, but the Power Limiting Omnidirectional Transceiver device that has been tuned into the given hostages power *nod*
Why else do they keep sending us out to find those things when they are stolen? -

Starting with the old EQ days where every guild had to have its token crazy girl who flirted everyone and stalked people and left messages on their phone and...

Hrm...what server did you RP on in EQ, if I may? >.>

My Guild had one of those too!
And what server were YOU on, Darktyger?

I managed to avoid gaining one of those on Fironna Vie...
She was a furry too, possibly... (okay, I was playing one of the Vah Shir too, but I was also new to the game and didn't realize she was luring me to a loney corner with a bed at the time!) -
Paragonwiki.com is a very good resource. If anyone links you there, just make sure it's a paragonwiki.com or a wiki.cohtitan.com link - wikia.com links to a Gold Sellers version of the wiki that is no longer updated properly.

Each mezz type has it's own Magnitude and Duration. Those values stack when they are of the same type. Sleep and Immobilize are of two types so they don't stack.
Protection and Resistance correspond to Mag and Duration. Protection has to be overcome by Magnitude, and Resistance shortens the duration of each effect.
Say you have a Hold with a Magnitude of 3, a Duration of 10 seconds, and a recharge of 5 seconds. Against a foe with a Protection of 2, your hold would have full effect on the first application. If they had 50% resistance the Hold would last 5 seconds. If they had Protection of 4, they would not be Held after one Hold. You would have to apply a second when it recharges, then the Hold would work, as long as both effects were present (another 5 seconds).
[/ QUOTE ]
Actually, if he had 50% resistance it would last 7.5 seconds - Resistance caps at 100% and at that halves it. Due to the way the formula works, you take your mez resistance, halve it, and that's what it reduces the duration by. -

Go to Alienware.com
order their top of the line liquid cooled machine
spen 15K on the compuet & monitors.
be broke with the hottest system out there. ;p

Didnt Dell buy Alienware??? If so, I would be hesitant to give Alienware a thumbs up based on rep...
Also to the OP, as much as I hate to Flame, this is really a random thread that has no relationship to Coh whatsoever... if you throw enough $$$ at a computer yeah it will run Coh great (maybe?) and still be a tremendous waste of that $$$
imho all you wanted to do is toss out a random thread to see what would happen, as gamer forums usually have a bunch of tech people in it... well happy day

Dell bought Alienware, but sounds like they've mostly left it alone. -

Yeah, I really don't understand why we're not getting more proliferation. It seems like an easy thing to do.
[/ QUOTE ]
Powerset Proliferation is like Power Customization.
It's not that it's hard, it's that it does take time. They CANNOT simply copy/paste to other ATs (for cleanup on things like Fury/Dom building or crits or containment, if nothing else).
And the people who are the PP folks happen to be the ones stuck with a bunch of the MA work too. -

it happened with someone that took the inf and ran on a trade for a lotg +rech a few months ago while there was still the trade bug that kept saying inventory full even though it wasn't; there was a thread about it.
[/ QUOTE ]Exploiting a bug to steal inf is entirely different from stealing inf through social engineering. No GM is going to take action on you for accepting an inf trade.
[/ QUOTE ]
I said "if the GM is feeling charitable"; it is a similar situation (chat discussion logged for a trade/barter agreed to where one side pays and is not provided recompense) if they decide to look at it from that perspective. If they're not feeling charitable they'll treat it how the do inf transfers where the person just pockets it and runs off while you're switching, say "don't give inf to people you don't know/trust", and close the ticket.
Personally I'd bet on the latter, but it's just not worth the hassle on the off chance that the GM decides to be nice.

Wouldnt this be like calling the cops to report that someone came into your backyard and stole all the marijuana plants? The Devs should not even care bc it shouldnt be happening.

My question: When scrubs ask to pay me for sitting in my missions, should I take the heroic approach and say "Go away, scrub!" OR do I take the villainous approach and try to price gouge him?
[/ QUOTE ]
Or you could take the "I'm sick of incompetent freshly-minted L50's messing up my PuG's" approach.
Blue-Side Leech: PL Meh?
Quizmaster: Sure. Just answer two out of three of the following question's correctly...

Q: Who did Manticore marry?
Q: Where are the Lost in KR?
Q: Which Zone features Serafina, Manticore, Swan and the entrance to Crey's Folley?

What, you think I don't know Manti married the sister while hanging in Bricks keeping an eye out of those Lost comming from the North and South ends of Kings? -

The Southern redneck is a stereotype for good reason, and especially once you get out of the large cities, there's no telling what kind of attitudes you'll find.
[/ QUOTE ] This is true(I live in the middle of Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex). But did yall know that the New England states have some of the most lax laws when it comes to marrying cousins, while the deep south is the most restrictive(generalizing). Just throwing that out there.
[/ QUOTE ]
Laws come about where there are issues with what the law deals with, generally.
Which makes me wonder about that place with the "No carnal relations with a woman and her daughter at the same time" one... -

2) if the devs ever decide to enforce no power-leveling as they've enforced no farming, you won't be caught in the cross-fire.

? you mean like the meow farms? That wasn't them coming down on farming, that was them coming down on exploiting. -

/bindsave and /bindload
You can do, IIRC, /bindsave gen.txt for create a bind file called "gen" then used /bindload gen.txt to load it.
As for windows, options, and chat settings...

Zephyr is a Universal Travel - Sprint (and it's clones) don't take those. -

Things were said that just dont come out of females mouths, even in a RPing enviroment. That's just the bottom line. Things were said to myself, my girlfriend, and my other SG members what were totally unacceptable and really crossed the line. It really was some disgusting crap.

Did you just kick them, or did you ever petition them after asking them to cease what was apparently (sexually) harassing behavior. -

What do you think about women who play male characters?
[/ QUOTE ]
My favorite of this kind of turn about happened to a friend.
He made a male character. Apparently the name was too cute/gay (really, to me I thought it he would of been called gay with that name) for several people in the MMO to believe he was a he playing a he, not a she playing a he.
Turnabout is funny when it doesn't happen to you! -

Yeah, there's plenty of European countries who think the Americans are a bunch of Bible-thumping primitives who, for goodness sake, still have the death penalty!
And yet at the same time, there's plenty of Middle Eastern and African countries who see Americans as Godless liberals who have no moral values at all.

What planet do you guys live on where its a social norm (even online) for guys to pretend they are females?
I guess I'm just ignorant to the fact its acceptable. I can live with that.
[/ QUOTE ]
I look at this, and I wonder if the fact that he can't get a girl being RP'd by a guy (now, if they actually do ERP with those lesbians and are both guys, that would weird me out a little... but most people keep that private) is so hard for me to get because I live in the state with a guy who's given birth twice... -
[ QUOTE ]
Btw...I have a female toon. Thats not anything that bothers me. I dont care when guys have female toons, thats not the issue at all. Its being told you're female when infact you're male. Thats the issue I have.
[/ QUOTE ]
I've had that issue too. Something about using spelling (usually) and not maxing out the boob slider, I think... (My friend, on the other hand, has admitted he would not put up a fight if I wanted to kill him if I used an assassin with DD bra size)
