Personally I think people do art as prizes, because it's an alternative for money. The way to pay people (especially outside of the country) online is not always without danger and not to mention there are limited ways. ... That and people like to gloat with their characters >.>

...And what Moggie said, lol

This is the kind of stuff most people are griping about because the ADMIN channel spams every open chat window. No legible conversations in Team, Supergroup, Etcetera...

[/ QUOTE ]

QFT - Please please please make an alerts channel.

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't know what your problem is, but for me they only appear in the upper chat box, if it annoys ppl so much it isn't hard to change your chat windows channels.

[/ QUOTE ]

Admin messages are shown in ALL chattabs. Every frigging single one of them. No matter how you edited them. If you got the admin messages on only the top tab, then your game is bugged. That or you have mistaken the newly system messages with the admin messages.

Personally I'd still say put them in the friends-channel (and change the title of course and disable us being able to post messages in it). For whoever is complaining the green messages is too easily to be overlooked at. Not because it's easily overlooked at, but more for the fact system bombs you with many different messages. Especially if you're fighting many mobs a lot.
The only ones that I ever did see using the friends-channel were complete n00bs. Nobody else is using that channel.

the fire looks quite well o.O ... She looks quite flat though (no shades) ^^""

oooh, inspiring >3

heres something id like to see added to police band missions...

# how about s police band mission that takes u into the donut shop in faultline... say all the police in there are held hostage and its beinbg attacked by (insert villan here)

# how about some grocery stores getting held up? ( banks and pawn shops are not the only ones that get raided)

# how about (if u have an sg) your base is getting assulted randomly by some bad guys ( this would give more of a valid reason to use the base and to have a SG )

# how about the Tram is filled with bad guys and u have to stop it ( a timed) before it hits the station (ala speed theme with bombs on board!)

there is a LOT of more types of missions that can pop up... heck hire me and ill give you THOUSANDS of ideas that will keep content flowing!!!! besides i got to put my evil powers to some good use (did i say that out loud???)

[/ QUOTE ]

They're not a bad idea, but personally I don't like my base being raided by anyone. I run a 1-person SG, so it took a LOT of work to build it up and I don't want that work to be lost, especially if NPCs do the work. And considering I edit my base a LOT (and I bet others edit it a lot too), it will probably take a lot of coding to be able to generate the map suitable for NPC-raiding

man so fast and still such great quality! inspiring!

Definitely @.@ However I'll most likely won't make it as good as Gill does ^^""

Roflol, lets go on strike!


Great looking piccie though, but since she's showing everything, I don't see why the nsfw-thing ^^""

The art is as awesome as ever *feels envy growing* @.@

and gratz!

lol, like ravages people post their characters whenever someone's doing character drawing requests XD

hmmm... that would explain their long hair and their kinda big ... you-know-what

I hope you don't define this piccie as too old (it is still new for me >.> ):

Great perspective @.@

Whoah! the colored version makes it look so much better o.O

Not bad not bad ^^

There are some places that aren't colored that should be colored (near some of the lines), but in overall, it's looking pretty good.

*backs off* Don't drag me there too @.@ (great piccie ^^)

Those are just...WOW!

[/ QUOTE ]

You took the words out of my mouth @.@

I have a suggestion/question. I'm not sure if this has been suggested, but this topic is getting too long to read through all of the comments >.> If someone did already post something similar, then my apologies.

Is there a way for you people to make some code that allows a tell with 'inf for money' to be blocked before we even get it and the people being banned from any chat for a certain time? Of course with this the GMs will automatically get their global name/account name and the message. Then you can close their account and disallow any new accounts to be made (by putting their mail-address, normal address, IP, etc on a black list).

This will include any tell with '(.)com', 'www', '(.)org', 'money', 'dollar(s)', '$', or whatever from anyone that is not on your global friends/server friends list. Maybe amplify this with character under level 10.
Since,when their messages don't come through, they are known for trying to become creative and type the stuff just a little differently (for example with spaces between the letters), you could build a database of posted websites and auto-block whatever is www.<standing here>.com for there.
Whether you will automatically update the blocklist or do it like once a month that is up to you.

This will force them to spam in AP/Mercy/GV/where ever else, but it's at least a start.
I would not recommend to automatically block over the broadcast/help channel/request/local, since people do post websites that do help you (like Badge-hunter/Vidiotmaps and CGT, etc) with a problem that you encountered that does not require assitance of a GM. However with the "auto-block whatever is www.<standing here>.com" black list, you could use those to block rather than the com/org whatever too.

A more mild version is you could make the words be changed into something else (kitties!) automatically without the blocking/banning. Somewhat like the profanity-filter, only we cannot turn it off.

Sounds a bit complicated, but it would have a better future for Co*, then for example disable the ingame Wentworths/BM. After all if they cannot advertise they got not enough customers and lose interest.

I'm kinda siding with some of the flak with regard to letting 'legacy missions' go unretouched. The devs beefed up Faultline and the RCS and got rave reviews. Positron admits the Positron TF is flawed and need revamping 'someday.' Do you guys really want a bunch of legacy missions and TFs cluttering up the ladder of advancement for new toons with klunky and kludgy design? I'd be happy if a whole new zone gets bumped back an issue if you spend one whole update revamping and cleaning up the problems in the legacy missions and TFs.

Well said. Personally I agree.
