    It's just a really bad joke.

  3. At a guess, this is on the Champion server, correct?

    It seems that everyone there is experiencing this. We're hoping for a fix soon.
  4. Moving under the assumption that their system design team is worth their name (which is a fair assumption since this rarely happens) this seems like a multiple failure scenario. It may require them to replace a lot of equipment both on the server and within the network to get it running again. That said, when I logged off, there seemed to be some progress being made as I could see my global friends again.

    Admittedly, the one problem with Champion (if you can really consider it a "problem") is that most of the time people are teamed at level 50 or close, at least from my experiences. If you're having trouble finding any teams, this could be why.

    Only going to link it since it contains profanity and I don't feel like getting mod smacked immediately.

    I'm not picking nits, I'm picking what is clearly a swollen ego balloon that needs to climb down off the high horse for a while.
    I would have to argue that if it were working as intended it would give you a message along the lines of "Value out of range, please select a value below 100" when inputting a higher value instead of just saying "Channel timeout set to xxx days." and in reality setting no time out. As it stands, either its not working as intended because a) they intended to allow days > 99 and it doesn't or b) they did not intend to allow days > 99, but it does not display the correct error message when the value is outside of [1,99]. We have no way of knowing which was intended, but one of them is presumed to be the correct one.*

    *Unless the devs hate us, but I'm assuming that not to be the case.

    Right, that's what I've noticed as well. It behaves like it works but doesn't actually do anything.

    On a related note, I tried this on an old channel and it doesn't appear that 3 digit numbers work, only 2 digit. Tried 365 and 180, which I know some people in that channel have been gone since '09 and no change. Tried 90 and it dropped from 72 people to 16. This may be why there was some confusion as to whether it worked or not.

    It's been in the game for quite a while, and works fine. We cleaned up some channels with it.
    So this actually works now? I know at one point it responded like it worked but it didn't actually do anything.

    I would like to go on the record as saying, if you have any problems with the way I've moderated anything, feel free to talk to me about it. I would prefer that it be done via tells just to keep any resulting drama out of BMT, but if I am in the wrong and get called on it, I will do what I can to make amends.

    I'll do what I can to be there, Amy. I would like to bring my scrapper, but I'll change up depending on how the league make-up looks.

    I see some who will stay on champion no matter what.
    I see some excited to see old friends coming back to the game. (Me included.)

    How many of you look at this as a way to teach new players about what makes Champion great?

    There will be many new players who have never experienced fly, never ninja-kicked a bad guy through a wall, never met their double in a mission and gone 'OMG... wait, his costume is better than mine.' and I'll have the chance to show them all of this.

    What I'm saying it: We have choices, but one choice that hasn't been considered much is that of HELPING the new players become good players.

    Just my two cents.
    Given that most new people will have the same restrictions as trial accounts, and we rarely hear out of trial accounts, I don't foresee many people being helped by us. That's why the concern about the freeps is a little odd to me.
  21. Hopefully this is the correct forum for this, but I figure this to be a technical question (if not an issue) of sorts.

    My question is, when viewing the game's chat logs, does the time-stamp conform to the user's locale settings? Or is it standard across all logs?

    Example, currently I see this:
    Code:
    07-16-2011 06:17:45
    as my timestamp. Since I'm a US player, this conforms to mm-dd-yyyy hh:MM:ss like I would expect, but if someone was in a locale where the date was usually formatted dd-mm-yyyy, would the logs change accordingly? So it would be something like this:
    Code:
    16-07-2011 06:17:45
    Thanks in advance for anyone that can answer this for me.
  22. Honestly, just don't call them rangers and you should be fine. Power Rangers wasn't the first and last sentai show.
  23. As much as I hate to say it, I don't see anything that really excites me. Poison corruptors might be okay I guess, but I'm really sad that we're still not seeing any dark secondary for controllers ._. I want my ill/dark.

    I miss Silas. I haven't seen him since I've been back. Tell me he's just lurking.
    He's just lurking. I team with him regularly, but its typically only really early in the morning (EDT).
