Really? That's not what you said earlier.

It's rather disingenuous to claim you aren't asking for a specific thing when your previous post explicitly asked for that specific thing. Twice.

Existing level pacts still function as they have in the past.

I never said anything about it being "purchase only". That's your misinterpretation.

It wouldn't even have to cost any Paragon Points. We already have an item in the Paragon Market that costs 0 PP.

Don't try twisting my words to say something they aren't saying.

What does a memory leak have to do with fixing typo/spelling mistakes?

They could keep my monthly allotment for a year as well as my free server transfers if they would fix all of those.

I'd consider it a small price to pay.

The point I was making in that tangent was that while I'd tried various types of nuts and learned to appreciate their differences while I was younger, as I got older one of them became one that I liked less than I did when I was young. Tastes change over time. Preferences in almost anything can change.

Part of the reason I no longer enjoy Brazil nuts as I did when I was younger could be because Brazil nuts contain Barium and Radium. I've had Barium for several medical tests so it could be that I'm picking up on the Barium in the Brazil nuts and my brain is associating the nuts with the discomfort of the medical tests. I've also been subjected to various radioactive substances being used in tests.

Who knows why people's tastes change. I've used several versions of Windows now, and I definitely have my favorite features of a few of them. In some cases, a feature that I liked very much has been improved on in newer versions of Windows and I now prefer that version of the feature over my previous favorite.

Similarly, I can appreciate the differences in some of the Mac OS versions I've used at times (I can recall using OS 8 and OS 9 before OS X came out, and they are very different in many respects). I can also appreciate the different distros of Linux that I've used in the past and even differences within the same distro as newer versions and kernels are compiled.

DarkGob is correct. I was quoting his post and misread forum merge as server merge.

Still, my wording was technically correct in that it did happen before the server merge.

Winner winner. Chicken dinner.

That was pretty much my attitude as well. Several of the guys I worked with were playing various MMO's and I never saw anything that would entice me to pay a monthly fee to play a game.

Then a co-worker ran across a magazine article or mention of City of Heroes and showed me the site. Seemed intriguing to us both, so we signed up on the forums. I mostly lurked, especially after the announcement that the game was being redesigned.

I don't remember if it was late 2001, or sometime in 2002, but I do recall it being in the early days of the forums.

I still didn't want to pay a monthly fee to play, but kept being intrigued by the concept of the game. I got into the beta and it hooked me so I decided I'd pay for a year and see how things went. My buddy got into Beta later and after launch we even got another co-worker to join us. Two others from work tried it but weren't as serious about it as we 3 were. They jumped ship quickly when another MMO launched in the fall of 2004.

I'm still here. My friend left after the multiple regen nerfs (Thanks Jack) and took the other with him to the 800 lb. gorilla of MMO's.

I've been trying to decide for close to a year if I was going to renew when my annual subscription came up due to changes in the direction the game was going. After participating in the I21 Beta, I've decided to renew for another year.

You're stuck with me.

EDIT: Adding to what Nuclear Toast said. I have no idea how much I've spent on the game or related activities. I've been to two NCSoft events in Austin, 4 CoH specific events in the Bay Area, annual subscriptions, purchasing each and every box set (except for the two elusive DVD Collectors Edition sets of CoH and CoV), a few boosters, a second account that is basically only activated on free weekends for SG invites with a few monthly subs by Time Card (currently subbed to purchase some items with points before going Premium), several purchases from the Wentworth's stores at the two HeroCon's and more that I'm probably forgetting. As far as I'm concerned, it's all been worth it. Especially when it involved time spent with friends I've made in the game.

Yep, that's the very add-on that I don't want to lose. I haven't messed with the portable version and don't really feel like messing with it. At home, I have no need to update to a newer version of FF. At work, I have one machine updated and one that isn't so I can read the forums during imaging, installs, lunch, etc.

The vastly superior ignore function is worth sticking with the older version of FF for me.

EDIT: For those that don't know, the FFvB Ignore feature not only blocks you from seeing the users posts, it blocks it when people quote their post so you don't see it then, and it doesn't give the little line saying they posted. It really really really ignores them.

From reports by other users that have much more experience than I do in changing things in add-ons, that doesn't work.

No sense me doing what they've already done.
