Not just anyone who is a proven threat to him, because as far as Cole is concerned all humanity cannot be trusted: either people follow him and are safe to remain alive, or they oppose him in which case they are too dangerous to live.
    So he is Joseph Stalin.

    It should not be the same price as an entire playable powerset for ONE costume slot. That's TWO MONTH'S worth of VIP points for ONE costume slot.

    I would not protest it being even 400 points, but let's get real here. 800 points is way too much.
    Then dont buy one. Thats your choice the important thing is I am gonna get wings LOL

    Sure, it has not come to pass yet but just watch it happen someday if you don't make it known that you won't be suckered into it.
    You keep to your opinion man thats cool. I disagree greatly but i am a capitalist. The main thing is this..:............... Come Tuesday freedom launches an i get wings lol

    Really? with all the toons you can have at once you think 10 bucks for a slot for all of them is expensive? I dont. Heck if I have 20 toons that $.50 a slot...............To me that seems a bargain.

    what are you worried about then? You will be a VIP and it will auto bill you for next month.
  8. It really fits to do this this month with it being called freedom. It is a month when freedom was was put to the test and came out strong.
  9. You guys dont think they have been giving us pieces of thia for weeks with the publishes?

It's only a guarantee that Congress (and later, through judicial action, that other US lawmaking bodies, ie states) wouldn't make laws restricting free speech.

    Court orders, business arrangements, employers, employees, social groups, contracts of all sorts, religious obligations, and professional organizations all have legal rights under some circumstances that limit speech. And the US 1st Constitutional Amendment doesn't alter these at all.

    Whether or not that is a good thing may very well be open to debate, but the US 1st Constitutional Amendment isn't near as far reaching as many people seem to think. It is a very powerful piece of legislation, but not boundless.
    We still have the freedom to say as we like. Just as Paragon has the freedom to remove said post. Its agreed upon when you sign up for the board. Yet it isn't Paragon or NCsoft telling people they cant complain.

    The boards are essentially private property. You have only as much freedom as NCSoft/Paragon Studios and the mods allow you. They can remove your post for overuse (or underuse) of the word "pink" if they so choose, and you have no recourse. They can mod or remove your posts for no reason whatsoever, if they want.

    NC *lets* you vent/complain here. If they said "That's no longer allowed," then it's no longer allowed.

    There is no "freedom of speech" here.
    maybe but I guess it is better someone complain here than call them and complain. Why does people expressing their frustration at a situation offend anyone?

    Seeing as they are not being able for a long amount of time to give the service we are paying for isn't worth complaining about? This wasnt just a couple hours. This was a very long time and it is happening far more fequently. We pay to play a game and when we cant cant for these extended periods it starts to weare thin. Now you dont have to get annoyed by it but I will.

    Doesn't matter . Still expect timely service. I am not saying that paragon is guilty of bad service I am saying paying customers have the right to complain.

    Does it irritate you that people might get upset that they lose the ability to use something they pay for? How about when your electricity goes out for a day do you not get upset?
  16. There is nothing wring about venting at the downtime .
