OOoh MAN
The thread has been dead since LAST YEAR
You're the one bringing up a dead topic!
Oh man.
Good laugh though.
Goooood laugh.
LMAO!
You bring up the dead horse then complain that people are beating on it?
*sees dead horse on side of the road*

How dare you whine about smoke grenade when dark armor and stone armor still don't stack!!!
All you whiners about not getting the VIP Badge better shut the hell up. . . .
*checks date on thread*
. . . .
Um, yeah. So take that.
*runs offstage*
Be nice if they offered the in game stuff for the dvd edition in the ncsoft store like they do with the GvsE edition. I think the purple glowie sprint would be awsome for warshades and dark defenders. Anyone mention that idea to ex lib & light yet?
Would also be nice if the power slide sprint was included in the other prestige sprints if there is no chance of it being sold like the GvsE edition.
*Didn't notice the age of the thread either, but I still think would be nice to have this offered for a few dollars in the ncsoft store or alternately at least the sprint with the other prestige sprints*
*runs screaming from another undead thread*
The VIP badge, comes with a power. Prestige slide I believe it was. Basically, a purple glow at your feet, and makes you look like your on ice, its kinda cool. But it may be a different one.

VIP Badge does nothing.
It isn't an Accomplishment, so I couldn't put it there.
It isn't an Achievement, so I couldn't put it there.
It has nothing to do with Exploration, so I couldn't put it there.
It has nothing to do with History, so I couldn't put it there.
That left Accolade. I couldn't give it an effect, or the playerbase would be upset that we are "charging money to give some Heroes an advantage over others", and rightly so.

Looking back that quote is a bit funny now though. A jump pack and pocket D teleport have some nice effects that I certainly consider "an advantage" well worth the extra $. 
I couldnt care less for either of those powers, but MAN! I wanna see whats in there! I want to be in the ool place! Lemme in T.T *scratches at the outside of door* I almost got in once. I got stuck in a truck in pocket d, then I typed /stuck, and it stuck me IN the door. Luckily a gm helped me out. But I still didnt get to see inside the thing.

Ultimus wouldn't have it if it meant "soloing" them without Shivans or nukes...
(A friend of mine also has the Passport badge, but it's just a bug that anyone on the US servers has it, of course.)

Did you miss his latest rash of threads where he solos AVs without shivans and nukes (using an EM/Elec brute)?

I say.. [censored]! If you want powerslide, shell out the $35. It's only $35. How the hell do you afford the $15/month if you cannot afford to shell out $35. Talk about shoe string budget for life.

Not to interrupt a good rant, but the DVD version was originally $50 (like back when I bought it... wonder if I can get a price match?). They just lowered the price down to $35 recently.
