I don't remember how long ago, but it was long enough that I forgot that I had applied. How long does it usually take? Has anyone else done this?

Let me explain. I live in Europe, but I've been a subscriber to City of Heroes since before there was an EU version, so I never switched over. As such, I still play the US version of the game, and would very much like to be routed to the US versions of sites pertaining to the game. Now, it's bad enough that the PlayNC store insists on routing me to the EU store every time, constantly trying to trick me into buying EU booster packs that won't work for my game. That I can deal with, since they're labelled as So and So (Europe) and a "US version also available) link in fine print still exists. It's annoying, it's insulting, but at least it's manageable.

But what the HELL happened to the main City of Heroes site? Why the FFF does it forcibly redirect me to the European version of the site? Yes, it has the little flags up top, but they DO NOTHING! I knew it there was something odd about it today, but I didn't think much of it. Well, today, I can't connect to City of Heroes (likely a connection problem) and I go to check server status. I go to News -> Server status and... What the hell?!? Defiant? Zukunft? Vigilance? What the... I don't care about these servers! I CAN'T PLAY on these servers, why the HELL would I care if they're up or down? I want to know whether Victory and Pinnacle are up or down, but I can't! Only then does it dawn on me what site I'm actually looking at: eu.cityofheroes.com. What? No! That's not what I want! So I do the obvious and go to www.cityofheroes.com, but in the back of my head, I know what's going to happen. And it does. As soon as I hit enter, the URL shifts to eu.cityofheroes.com and it loads the EU site again. Luckily, we only have one set of forms now, or it would have probably shunted me over the the EU boards to.

Well go to hell! I HATE HATE HATE localisation of sites! HATE it like you wouldn't believe! I don't CARE about local variants of the services I'm ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR! And I really, REALLY do not enjoy being locked away from sites just because a crappy localised version of it exists, especially when it GOD DAMN DOESN'T HAVE WHAT I WANT!

Argh!!!

Look, at this point, I'm willing to cheat. I'm about ready to flip PlayNC a birdie and just somehow cheat my way into the site for the game I FRIKKIN' OWN! Is there something I can change about my settings, like my location in Regional and Language settings or some such that would make me appear to be in the US? Is there some way I can make an exception for a particular site? I pay real money for this game each month, and I DO NOT APPRECIATE being routed to sites that ARE NOT FOR MY GAME! Is there anything, ANYTHING I can do to fix this?

Break frees don't improve with this veteran reward. But awakens do: specifically the part that heals you as you rez should increase by 5%.

Really? You think?

With a dwindling population all spread out, why make new raid-oriented events? New events should be geared towards small groups and solo players (like me), IMO. Or perhaps I'm just being selfish. It may be a much more popular event than I think.

(Sorry I didn't join in with the villain I was playing, but I don't do raids. Besides, there should be players trying to do other things while raids are going on just to make sure nothing else is busted.)

Even the trick-or-treat monsters are tougher these days, with paired lieutenants and bosses showing up very frequently for solo characters. Deadhead used to be the first hunting badge I'd get during the Halloween event, because zombies were so plentiful. Now it's the last, with all the vampires and werewolves and spirits showing up. (At least no one can complain about having problems picking up the Buster badge this year...)

I'm not sure I'll do much on the live servers for this event. I have one lower level character who needs the extra costume slot, but a number of my characters will just be a bit too squishy for all the Vampire Lords and Crones.
