I am 56 also.

I have met many others close to my age ingame.

I occasionally make social references to older trivia items that sail over most of the other players heads, but will result in tells from other people who lived through the older years who recognize the references.

You have to be careful though, or those in jokes will backfire on you.

For example, years ago, I used to think it was funny to mention overhearing some kids talking,
and one said "Hey! Did you know know Paul McCartney was in a band before Wings?"

That became much less funny a few years later when I told that, and one of the people there asked "Who is Wings?".

.

They got the words wrong.

.

Looks like it bears repeating:

If you like something, buy it.
If you don't like something, don't buy it.

You don't need to post here every time you are making a buying decision!
Have fun!

B'bye! if ya go.
Can I has your stuff?
etc.

Hey
Congratulations on the cool post and all, but . . .
You are no UniqueDragon

The best answer is the CutNPaste one.
I'll leave that to someone else.


Bottom Line? . . .
If you like something, buy it.
If you don't like something, don't buy it.

You don't need to post here every time you are making a buying decision!
Have fun!

This!

I am right with you for re-worked zones.
Faultline is one of my favorites now.
Re-working zones does not lower the number-in-zone-number per zone ratio.



But there are many people who are hoping, no, demanding-as-their-right, as many or more zones as CoV added.
("But splutter, but . . . Its kind of a whole new game! Shouldn't we add as many or more zones than CoV did?!? ")
This, of course, gives you almost twice as many zones redside, as we have now.

THAT, of course, gives you the result of about HALF as many players per zone, redside, as we have now.



These same people would ask that we get more zones each issue.
Carried out to absurdity, we would eventually reach 1000s of zones, and reach a time when each of us could be in a zone alone.

While that would not really happen,
demanding doubled zones does cause half as many people per zone.
I will continue to consider that a silly thing to seek.

.

Go ahead . . .

We'll wait.

Back in the old days, when debt used to hang around a little while,
I often had my BattleCry set to:

"If I ain't in debt . . . I ain't playin hard enough!"

.

Oh, YES. I hope so!

• DOOOOOOOOM whiners start rioting at the first release of new info about changes.
• They continue the riots, until it has gone live and they see it wasn't so bad.
• The further ahead the announcements come the longer we have to deal with the riots.

So, please YES! The later the better!

.

Epic fail there.
You must not know Bill.
Not a condescending bone in his body.
One of the top few most helpful people on the forums.

And the cut-n-pastes?
They are clear, concise, comprehensive answers to people who either

• didn't search to find out the topic has already been more than thoroughly discussed before, or
• know that it has been discussed to death already, but think that they themselves, are important enough to start yet another thread on the subject.

Either way, . . . they obviously need to be reminded of the history of the discussion.

CutNpastes do this efficiently, and well.


(And while the OP seems like a nice enough guy, He did admit at the start, that he knows we have already dealt with this particular dead horse "every few months".)
.

And that is the answer to Ultimus, who suggested full detail release.

No matter how good the news is that is released,
The more details, the more DoooomSayer riots,
from people who fear it till they actually see it.

.

It actually did.

• Unless you need to know that the clipboard is a storage spot that is part of the Windows system that is running.
• It contains the last thing you put into it, through one of several methods.
• When you mark something and do CTRL-C that thing goes into the clipboard.
• When you do the above Export command, the build is put into clipboard.
• When you place your cursor and do CTRL-V (as mentioned above) it pastes whatever is in the clipboard into the spot where your cursor is. (in this case, the character build)

Now ya know.
.

Cute....

But . . . Pics or it didn't happen.
Screenshot them together sometime.
No photoshop, etc.
.

Number one reason: Because the devs still never intend to let us do this.

There is slanted wording in your question PP, . . . like
Dang it! Why can't we just hit a button that levels us from 1 to 50 yet?
Or . . . Have you quit abusing your husband yet? (just yes or no answer)

• Your alts don't even know each other! They have never met. None of them have even been on at the same moment. Why would they send strangers money?
• Get a 2nd account, and activate it every few months when you build up a need to move the money around.
• Get a trusted friend, or SGmate to help you.
• Get married, and have your spouse play, and use that account to help you. (Oh wait . . . )
• Or just live with the things you cannot change.

.

I'll bet they fixed that mistake REALLY fast after they discovered it.

paid system people really hate giving rewards while not being paid.
.

I have to agree that the best reason for any server mingling would be this EU/NA mix.

On the other hand, I think it would be the least likely or last to actually be done, if it ever was.

.

THIS!

Yeah. None of the rest of us have any links or proof or evidence either.

.

I see no reason for all the work it would be. . .
I play with friends on ALL the servers regularly ALREADY.

Even easier to play with a friend on another alt on another server,
after the Super-SK goes into effect.
and less reason to actually take an alt to a different server. . . . just make a duplicate, and auto-sk to team with any friend you like!

.

Apology accepted.
And it looks like we are in agreement.

If it looks like it is worth the money to you, buy it.
If it looks like it is not worth it to you, do NOT buy it. (and then you can complain)

But don't try to have it both ways.
Don't buy it when it is not worth it, and then complain.
That would be irrational, and insincere.

Well, New users would buy it rather than older versions, because they would get ALL the game content of both sides for each of their alts.



The other point is my amusement when people say "I want TEN new zones!".

Yup. Exactly what we need....
Less players per zone because we are spread out even more places.
Yeah. Let's aim for that!

The Philosopher-humorist Will Rogers made the observation that
when many natives of Oklahoma moved to California in the Dustbowl of the 1930's, . . .
the IQ of both states went up.

Dang!
I never ran into them!

I actually have a few alts with my RL name, Steve Rogers.
