    Lack of advertising.

    Abundance of furries.

    Nice to see I'm not the only one.

    Since that question is already being addressed, I'll pose one of my own -

    "Can we expect the change of anniversary event badges being tied to our account vice our individual characters soon?".

    You think MY names suck. I looked at your signature, and most of the names I saw in there I thought were unoriginal, and well....sucked.
    Uh-huh... time for you to take up smoking again... quitter

    A demon/dark MM

    But seriously, a dual pistols/martial arts Scrapper, Blaster, Corruptor would be nice.

    Nothing personal, but they're not all that obvious because quite frankly... they suck

    One man's trash... and that's the problem.

    I'm not addressing the rest of this post specifically to you, but to the community in general.

    I feel sorry for the new players when they buy Going Rogue: Thesaurus Edition.

    If we can't implement Global Name Association soon, then at least provide a solid name wipe (ie every character that is less than level 50, and on an account that hasn't been paid for in at least 6 months gets a generic name, and a free rename token if they ever come back).

    Let's face it, if you didn't pay your rent/mortgage for 6 months, how long would you get to keep "your" address?

It's a last resort.

    How many Beta players started out with obscure, strange, or downright abstruse names for characters? how many started out with names just as "Obvious" and "Uninventive" as the ones people have been trying to get ever since? Just because someone equally uninventive got to the name before someone who joined 3 years on DOESN'T make the new player uncreative, short-sighted, or uninventive. It just makes him late.

    Lack of uniqueness. Perceived ownership of a commodity only made rare, unique, and special by a system put into place by the former design team who realized their mistake and rectified it in the next game they created.
    If I could fit all of this into my signature block (but giving you the credit, of course) I would. Well done!

    It is appropriate. There are statues of other villains in the Rogue Isles. Check out Grandville. Recluse and the "big 4" all have statues there.

    What do you guys think?

    As for a villain equivalent.. i dunno, a huge WANTED poster?
    I suggested a while ago the ability to purchase statues for your lvl 50 characters to place in your SG base. I do like your client-side only view idea. As for the "villain equivalent" of only posters? No. If you're going to offer statues to blue side, then offer them to red as well.

  11. I'd like to know if this will play Ultra Mode well? Yes I understand that we don't have the exact specs for UM yet, but...

    8GB Dual Channel DDR3 at 1333MHz 2 x 4096MB

    Soloing AV/GM's

    "Finish off a weak AV"?

    My main would disagree with you. I have no problem fighting AV's.

    And for the record, it's energy/dark for... the... win.

    I'm not a fan of animal cruelty, so... let's change that to "cat people" or "furries" instead.

    CoX Merchandise

    I would love the opportunity to buy some official CoX merchandise myself. A great idea.

    I never said there was a problem. so I see no rules violation. The name is key, seeing as how she's a Lead GM.
