    not every mmo does actually.... one of my old mmo's i had stuff stored in emails for over a year (and there was no way of storiing stuff unless it was in your inv or email).
  2. would like to point out that when you accept a fortune now....your char tries to cast it on itself too....

    Also can't find magic bolero option in costume creator has disapeared....
  3. Just a note Mr W.....im not @TameDragon im @Nightshade XD
  4. SB is a nice power yes but i dont expect to be thanked every time i throw it out. I try and keep the main melee toon SB'd and throw it out when i get chance on the other members of the team but when you're throwing out cages and FS sometimes it gets a bit hectic. If someone asks for it i hit em with it at the first available opportunity. If i get thanked thats cool but i dont NEED thanks for doing what my toon is built for.

    Only one thing about sb i don't like too much is when you get people who keep saying "sbsbsbsbsbsbsbsbsbsbsbsb" in the chat window and then rant at how slow i am in hitting em with it. If im in the middle of locking down and FS'ing a mob would you rather wait the 10 secs so i could finish the manoeuvre and THEN sb you or switch targets and lose out on the nice large FS amount youd get? One guy even kicked me from his team because i didn't sb him within 5 secs of his asking (he was the other side of the room in scrapperlock at the time)

    guess what im trying to say is it's a power like any other, use it when you can or when your asked and don't expect a ty all the time. TY for a sb is a bonus but i prefer getting a good job to the entire team when the mish is done
  5. ive got a lvl 10 spines/regen that im in the middle of doing hollows stuff on, could join with that if youd take me
  6. im out all morning or id come help, remember also that maintenance is due at 12noon BST today so maybe wait til after that or for the weekend if you don't get enough people? I've always had better luck getting people for the SSTF's on a weekend. But either way Good Luck

    Hello?....

    remember also that the game is heavily instanced so you prolly wont see a lot of people just running about, do a /search and look for people on there too

    ROFL i have never seen these XD this is exactly the sorta thing i meant
  9. Remember when AE was fresh and new, when all the newbies went into AE and got from 1- 50 in a day or 2? Well there was 1 guy i saw in atlas (lvl 50 all AE badges no vets) broadcasting over and over "how do i get to kings row?" when he was told use the yellow line train station.... "wheres the train station?". I didn't know whether to laugh, cry or just put my head through the wall because soon after that i saw at least 4 other people asking the same and they were high lvl too...

    Too old for school, still looking for a job.....
  11. Got a vote from me, even though I'm not from Justice
  12. Just found out this is already in the works being lead by someone else on same day so im cancelling mine, sorry folks
  13. excellent reading as per usual, can't wait for more! keep up the good work
  14. one very good thing about RoF if you participate in mother ship raids is that you can whack it down in the middle of the fighting and it guarantees that when the mobs die you and your team also get the added bonus of more merits. Also good if your hunting down low level enemies for defeat badges cause you can hit em with a fireball, drop RoF and move to next mob and be certain all the previous mob has been wiped out

    Thats the thing, most new players dont realise there is 2 sides to CoX, EU and US. I certainly didn't when i first started cause i got bought the EU version by my best mate. All i wanted to say was a lot of you guys seem to forget we even exist over here in the EU hell even the devs do sometimes

    This doesn't mean you can't get a team going, especially if you go out of your way and start doing stuff like global channels or forums, but for quick and painless PuGing I enjoy Freedom and Virtue more (these two servers have the highest population numbers by far during EU hours, usually 2 to 3x as much people as on any other server).
    I'd like to mention one thing about this....why do you assume that people from the UK all play on US servers? we got a load of good people here on the EU servers, no we dont have the numbers of the US side but we still count! *end rant*

    New Player

    3 very good channels to join is Sals Badgehunters, Union Taskforce and Union Chat. Sals is mainly for badge related stuff though we do run a lot of TF/SFs, Union Taskforce is mainly TF/SFs and things like mothership raids and Union Chat is anything and everything people wana chat about.

    To join a channel right click in the chat window, scroll down to 'join channel', a box will appear allowing you to enter the channel name. Once entered, right click in the chat window again and scroll down to 'edit tab'. A new window opens with all the current traffic assigned to that chat box. Find the chat channel you just joined on the right hand side, highlight it, click add, click ok. You should now be able to see that channels traffic in your window too.

    Welcome to Union and also welcome to the madness that is CoX
  18. I'm still waiting on Star to send me a tell about my idea for a VG so things like TPs would be available for you all eventually.

    Also thinking about things i could possibly join up with a MM too, obviously depending on times/days. If i do it'd be either a demon/dark or necro/dark.
  19. lol when i said its prolly not all your work hon i meant the links id already found and it possibly not being all of it i realise the links got a massive amount of peoples work Sorry for the ye olde english confusion there but as i stated before....not much sleep for this Dragon recently Now i will stop derailing this thread and go back to waiting for the next instalment
  20. I have 3 passions, reading, making stuff on photoshop and obviously CoX. If i can combine those 3 i'm a very happy person so reading stuff about ppls toons is a good thing for me. Semi wish i'd started CoX on the US servers but until they merge the 2 sides i'll just have to be content with all these stories

    well i doubt its all Sooner's work but as much as i could find on this thread MI. And that link is now Fave'd on my browser.... Late night reading here i come

    If it's to be believed by anyone i actually read Eragon and the 2 sequels in 4 days :S I LOVE reading and yes i've been told i'm bloody fast but its how i've been since a kid ^^
  22. hehe i am, plus it helps im not sleeping very much atm (2 hours last night) so yeah, gave me something to do while listening to my partner snore his head off upstairs. Think it was 6 or 7 threads i had open at one point rofl
  23. Found this thread in my travels yesterday and took the time to sit and read what's been posted so far. I am finding this a very enjoyable read and can't wait for more. I've also read the other stories which have been linked in this thread and found them to be just as good. Keep up the good work Sooner and the rest of you too. Might attempt to write a story myself again if I can get rid of this writers block I keep getting hit with, but in the meantime I'll be sitting here in anticipation for the next chapter
  24. My widow's called Arbiter Draconis, my crab's called Arbiter Green Lotus and i know my partner's bane is called Arbiter Ghost. He's got the look of the arbiters near enough spot on and he hangs about in mercy giving the newbs help or just to look cool XD, he's had some pretty nice comments from people over his suit
  25. First ever toon a fire/fire tank, i used to duo with a friend at the time but whenever he wasn't online I'd solo.....the first ever team I got without my friend and I was asked to tank. That was the worst idea in history, I didn't have taunt, didn't have half the toggles slotted and i died in about 3 seconds, the BLAPPER lasted longer than me

    2nd story, I re rolled the fire tank about 3 months ago into a fire/fire blaster, moved the tank to defiant as i hardly used her cause I really didn't get on with how it played. Got the blaster to 50 and slotted and decided id join a MOitf. Now comes the best part... I forgot completely I had re rolled cause I used same cossies, name everything from my tank.... Obviously the MO attempt failed but the team had a good laugh at my reasoning behind running in and we restarted seeing as it was only the first mob.
