Ok so I recently moved to Virtue and I am not really into roleplaying. I mean I write my character biographies, have a concept, etc. but some of the stuff people do baffles me.

I am not trying to slam someone else's gaming experience, I am merely trying to understand. So thats what I came here asking.

Anyways, I am in Pocket D and I am running Gladiator matches for badges. I keep appearing next to this "couple" and I am catching their conversation. First let me describe their outfits:

Player A is wearing a school girl outfit, high heels, max boob slider, etc. Player B is also a female character with purple stockings, long legs, etc. Well when I started noticing the conversation they are flirting back and fourth and then eventually roleplaying making out. Granted I am popping in and out of arena so only catching bits and pieces of the conversation.

Eventually they are roleplaying, or maybe were the entire time, the naughty school girl getting seduced by the teacher. The teacher is female and so is the student. The teacher is telling the student if you get an A you get a special reward nudge nudge.

Then they start talking about being in a relationship and asking to be the other's girlfriend. So mind you we have two people roleplaying here two female characters making out, that are teacher and student, getting a bit graphic, and then being in a relationship.

From an outside perspective, this seems bizarre to me. I could understand roleplaying this with your wife or girlfriend in a real life bedroom situation, but in the game? Does this go on a lot in roleplaying?

The other thing that baffles me is its two female characters, I am sure one or both players are male. Does this have an effect at all? Or does the player fantasize the other is female?

I am literally trying to understand the behavior and maybe a poster out there likes to do this. What does it do for you? Is it simply fun? I can accept that.

Ok I got the Arena badges... what about the PVP rep one? Any suggestion?

Ok I got it thanks... Any idea about the Swiss tournament badge? Whats the min number of people?

Ok and when I go to invite people it says event not found or event is full yet I am the only person? Anyone know?

I cannot find a place when I go to create a event to select this setting?

Any help? I haven't done arena really.

They already tried lowering Brute caps and the amount of negative feedback changed it back. They will lower the caps the day they nerf Drain Psyche and Rage which isn't going to happen consider us grandfathered in.

If anything they should unnerf our damage back to 850%.

So I saw one of the little DE rock guys in Brickstown. It was a blue con underling Rubble and I am 50+1. Clearly it came from a Giant Monster and also given its <Abomination> tag...

Where did it come from? What GM? I have never seen one in Brickstown to my knowledge?

As a magician/person that can do card tricks I have a few suggestions for character 3 based on techniques we use:

Double Lift
False Shuffle
Charlie Shuffle
Backslip
Force
Key Card
Force Fan
Riffle Shuffle
Spring
The Palm
Sleight of Hand
The Overhand Shuffle
Cuts
Double Cut
The Turnover
The Pass
The Reverses
The Glide (One of my favorite card techniques)
The Glimpse
Overhand Shuffle
Hindu Shuffle

Maybe you would like one of those?

Thanks for the link which I am aware of. I am looking for tips and tricks similar to how one poster suggested the method for getting the Empath badge in 8 hours.

I also notice that on the Arena tab that some of these classes aren't listed?

I saw on the City of Data the Pistol Pete or whatever attack does Burn patches. Is it an AOE like the Assault Bot? How good are the patches? Anyone tested?

Also with Arena badges can they award to all? Or do I have to get like 16 people together?

So I am going to be getting these pretty soon and wondering if there are any suggestions regarding them. I heard the Arena badges are a little messed up and don't always award? Also what about the PVP rep badges? Is there an easy way to do it? Or is that just one long grind?

I was reading in another thread that having two of them slotted in different powers is a waste. The statement was that they do not stack (which I know) but the other statement is it does not increase the duration.

The way I interpret that is that if it goes off it doesn't refresh the duration of the current debuff?

Is the Ach Heel or the FOTG -Res procs going to be changed at all? I know they are considered pretty OP by most standards. Would their proc rates be decreasing ?

I am sure a lot of people try to ignore it but do how do you explain it? Outside of Ouroboros there are many cases for exemplaring such as trials, joining low level teams, or joining a task force. Ouroboros explains it as time travel but how do you explain it in these other cases?

For my main character, he is a person that has learned to control his Ki energy. (think Dragonball Z) -- He is a SS/Fire Aura.

Part of the thing I do with him is that he has transformations similar to what Super Saiyans go through. 30-44 he gains the SS blonde hair and such... 45-50 he has blue hair and blue auras, and in Incarnate trial fully level shifted he is a purple/red.

Basically in times he holds back his power because he loves a challenge in order not to decimate his opponent in one to two blows. I also illustrate this by the changing colors.

How does your character do it?

I figured its worth a shot here since I cannot seem to find a way to do it. Basically, is it possible to get a face metal piece with hair? An example would be the Roman Cheek Guard 2:

I cannot find the record of it. Poison trap used to behave a lot differently proc wise and I know some corrections were made to it.

Can someone describe what the problem was and what was occurring? I *think* I may have found something that is replicating it but on a different power in another powerset.

Where do I access my direct messages?

Ok I am not familiar with Twitter...

1) Do I have to keep refreshing the page to see the chance for a code?

2) I just have to click the "retweet" button the said post by the allotted time?

I know Castle was replaced by Synapse, who replaced BABs as the new animator? And is that person in charge of costume change emotes? (I assume so)
