Are you creating a Hero, a Villain, or a Praetorian?

Those should be the options presented when you select Create a Character.

As a side note, when I log in to my PlayNC account, it only lists it as City of Heroes/City of Villains. And I've had GR applied to my account since it was first offered for Pre-Purchase.

EDIT: Posts came in. Sounds like you are choosing to start a Hero. To start in Praetoria you have to select to start a Praetorian.

Happy birthday bAss.

2 Anniversaries to celebrate.

1 for the launch of the game itself, 1 for Freedom.

It's like Birthdays and Fourth of July.

When we were first testing the vBulletin software during one of the Beta's, I made it a point to start digging into some of the "how-to's" of things I'd been doing for a long time on the uBB forums.

I found a link on the forums that really made me happy. It's still there in the Posting Rules box at the bottom of each page. Just click the BB code link in that box. Or maybe click the Smilies link. On either of those pages, you will find a link to the FAQ that has some interesting links and information in it. Remember that some of the things you'll find mentioned there are disabled for players on our forums, such as Reputation and Attachments.

Whatever you do, don't click the Forum Rules link in that box. Bad things happen there man. Bad things.

I haven't gotten it for my second account.

That account in a master account as well. With a separate email address.

I'll keep watching my email however, free time is free time.

I'm in an odd situation here. I tried to open the images today since I needed a laugh, and judging from the comments here I thought I might get a good one in, but I got a little pop-up message that MalwareBytes has blocked access to a potentially malicious website and gives the IP address of the site it blocked. I did a ping on jumbofiles.com and sure enough, that's the IP that is blocked.

I'll just have to rely on the descriptions you kind people are relaying since I'm not taking the risk.

I wonder if the folks at MalwareBytes know a thing or two about what's going on with the jumbofiles servers that we don't know about.

Uninstall or disable any of the Stardock programs such as Window Blinds or configure them not to work on City of Heroes.

My suggestion then would be to send a PM to The Television or Alpha Wolf with all of the included steps to reproduce the issue. Be as explicit as possible with every step of the process including, but not limited to, where are you zoning from, where are you zoning to, what team number you are on, are you the team leader, are you the league leader, were the pets summoned in the zone you are in when you enter Lambda or were they summoned in a different zone, etc. The more explicit the steps, the better the chance of finding exact methods of duplicating it and finding a cause for it.

If they can duplicate the issue reliably they can then start trying to find what causes it.

We had a problem a while back that seemed easy for players to experience but it took a certain set of steps to be able to duplicate it and once some players found the steps to reproduce it EVERY TIME, they were able to find the cause and correct it.

At the same time, we had several players insisting that it was easily duplicated using other methods, but even other players couldn't always reproduce it using their steps.

EDIT: Be sure to include information such as "have you been to WW/BM", "have you opened any store interface (origin stores, FP Stores, Ghost Falcon store, RWZ store, etc", "what contact dialogs have you opened", "have you opened the enhancement window, Incarnate powers interface, etc", "have you spoken to a Merit Vendor", "have you spoken to Null the Gull or a Difficulty contact", "have you spoken to a tailor", etc. This may seem like I'm just tossing out arbitrary unrelated items, but surprisingly, one or more of these was the key to resolving the previous bug that was difficult to identify.
