Was on test and a wolfspider in cap AE building said something like;

'I heard theres a secret entrance that allows you to get into other people's missions without being invited'

PvP MArcs?

Probably a reference to a bug that causes these things to happen.

unlikely as thats so incredibly rare most people have no idea that it occurs, devs are not known for broadcasting bugs and its not much of a "secret enterence" either.

I would guess a left over from an unimplimented idea, like the +damage from cloaking device that was in the tooltip for sometime but never got into any player accessable environment.

Probably confusion over the TF bug where, if you have a MArc active and join a TF, some players will enter the MArc and others will enter the actual TF mission from the TF mission door.

I was hit by this bug once. Me and a friend were gonna duel in the Arena, and when we zoned in we weren't on an Arena map, we were in someone's mission. Somehow we went from Pocket D's Arena (I was on my Nin/Nin Stalker, and he was on his Katana/SR Scrapper) into someone's "Kill the Snakes" mish redside. Kinda funny, we were both 30-something in someone's lvl 3 mission. The villain, a Robot MM even conned as an enemy to my friend. Her bots couldn't hit him at all XD

It was funny in local.

Me: You know, this doesn't look like the Arena map.

Her: Umm. . .hello?

Friend: Wow, this REALLY isn't the Arena. How'd we get here?

Her: o_o What are you doing in my mission?

They have referenced bugs before. One is even commemorated on a plaque.

For those wondering which plaque, go to King's Row and take a left when you exit the Tram. Cross the road and you will find a plaque that is part of the Intellectual badge.

The wording on the plaque is as follows:

"For months, unbeknownst to the city's finest Super Groups, a Lost Pariah called Ishmael attempted to psychically control the entire city. It was here that his efforts had the greatest effect, causing many citizens to run about in a stupor for hours on end."

Man, those were some fun times watching the citizens running crazy on that spot.

If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.
