It was widely speculated that they would not allow activated accounts without GR to switch alignments to avoid Monday afternoon complaints that they cannot switch back.
It would seem those speculations were accurate based upon your experience. -

I can see that only with the qualifier that people would make life decisions based on that.
So far, a good portion sounds like a water cooler discussion born from a few facts. I'm not seeing a problem with positing possibilities under that scenario.
As long as no one jumps on people with differing views.
Also, i think the forums can do with a lot less references to people with subpar "reasoning skills" don't you think? -
This was one of the several ways I got my early millions but now it's too small potatoes for me to bother with.

If I hadn't been without internet last night I would have been there so assume I was there in spirit.

After reading the sad news of the layoffs last night I had to head home to no internet so now I just want to post my best wishes for speedy re-employment to all those affected and a sad farewell to Mr. Bruce and the others.
So long and thanks for all the fun. -

This is a shame, as we all liked him. The community aspect of this game is so important to me that I'm feeling this on an emotional level rather than a "He made my game" one.
Good luck, Chris. You rocked while you were here.

Ha. My dad kept a dime in his pocket for anyone who complained about him pulling them over with the line:
"My taxes pay your salary, why don't you go catch real criminals?"
"Here's your refund, sir." -
Yes.
Halloween salvage was the only way to get to 5 for non VEATs before GR but it never had any special ties to a particular slot. -
There's no rules at all against having multiple accounts. I have 3. The rules against misbehaving apply regardless of how many accounts people have.
I used to have all 3 go to the same email address but for a while none of them would get updates so I changed them to the same email address. They have always pointed to the same name, physical address and credit card. -

So roll one, get some friends (you do have some, right?) band together and team for 1 hour a week. It doesnt' take long, and it gives you alternate characters if your server has issues.
If you don't *want* to take steps to be able to play, don't *****.
They just login to broadcast their dissatisfaction about not being able to play on "their" server. -

i.e. you posted a new thread when there were already threads on topic. At least that's how I interpreted it, and how it's been used in the past. I didn't call you a snowflake so not sure why the person who did said it. But I'll bet this is what he/she meant. -

Counting is hard, and I didn't check every Server subforum, but at a quick look I'm not that far off.

You're starting to get a little pudgy from all this consumption, Lemur.

I always enjoy trick or treating.
I am slightly sad that it is slated to end so soon because I do enjoy it but I understand most normal people get bored with it. -

/this. Why is Ghost Widow going to act as patron and train a hero currently fighting against Arachnos?
Rather see a heroic equivalent (with arcs/badges - I'm more interested in the arcs, really) introduced.
I would love to have hero patrons. -
Quote:It could be that but it is also highly likely a lot of people are in Praetoria where there aren't any TFs for them to run.Originally Posted by newchemicals
I'd say I am not a fan of forced teaming or forced soloing.
There should be a way for both teamers and soloers to access content. It should probably take longer to solo, so convience comes at a price.
Speaking of solo. Since i18 came out, I noticed a drop in TFs/SFs being run. I'm wondering if people soloing tips missions has something to do with this. 10 tips missions + 1 morality mission = 1 a-merit = 5 random rare rolls = 100 merits. -
That map is pretty funny.
And sad (when I think of the Facebook games). -

If they were transferable, I'd already have both of the pvp IOs I need for I-19 and I'd be selling the farkers on the market until I was inf capped on some arbitrary number of characters.
I like the word arbitrary. It makes me happy.

So you are telling me that you have never seen someone recruiting for a LRSF/STF, say asking for "Damage" and turning away stalkers?
Never? What server do you play on, I gotta take note for the next free transfer week. -
Quote:Arbitrary does not mean random though an arbitrary value can be arrived at through a random means. In this case arbitrary simply means there is no reason you need those people to accomplish the tasks set forth in those task forces so the numbers were arbitrarily selected. They were obviously deliberately chosen but that does not make them any less arbitrary.Originally Posted by Torrynt
While I agree that decisions made 5 years ago have little bearing on the state of the game today. That does not mean they are necessarily arbitrary. They could very easily have looked at the content, decided they wanted to have a required teaming aspect in their solo friendly game and kept it the same.
Unless you have been in their meetings you can not tell if this was arbitrary or not. They could very well have sided with people who like teaming and reasoned that there are ways around their caps, but they want to encourage teaming. In that case, it is not arbitrary, it's just a decision you did not agree with. -
Quote:If they were transferrable I'd sell them on the market in a heartbeat.Originally Posted by Yomo_Kimyata
(Buys A merits from SwellGuy, sells them to BillZBubba)
What?! I still make a little money.
