well done Lui
I've spent over 2 billion since I9 went live but never held more than 100 Million at one time. I mean what's the point? I want my inf to work for me not just sit there.

They were appropriately appalled

They're now putting it all together.

Eight legs, one body, silk,

Yes... unless you're a north american, that's not a billion (tera or 10 to the power of 12). That's a thousand millions (giga or 10 to the power of 9). Congratulations anyway. I guess farming DOES pay off.

It's called Milliard(10^9) and came from the french. Billion is used by american-english, Milliard is more common in non-english languages. Billion has pretty much taken over from the "thousand million" that was standard some 10+ years ago. Saying Billion now is not wrong.
Sapp, i feel like your a personal dictionary
You ftw! I do however like Milliard more, sounds strange but better hehe.
As Blue Rabbit says... Americans believe 1,000 millions is a billion, and as they say it's right...everyone else falls into line. However a true Billion is ....1,000,000 millions, which BR put very succintly.
Going back to the OP. It's a great achievement getting to that point, but why bother.... Most people spend their influence on improving their build....so the OP's must be S**T on that assumption. Like Cynic said, I spend what I gain... and the maximum I've ever had was 60m.

Yes... to industries where that kind of subjectivity can mean huge money losses or the loss of lives, I'm sure they go with billion for 10^9. Just because the north americans (it's all gone to teh americans!) use it with that meaning doesn't mean the rest of the world have to follow them like sheep.
I know about the milliard word (I have access to Wikipedia just like you and the rest of the people who use the internet) but if an ISO rule already exists stating what is which and how it should be referred to, I'll stick to that, thanks. Especially when you take into consideration short and long scales which just add more noise to the mix.

And here's me wondering what happened to all the influence that people had saved up.
Guess it all flowed into your accounts!
We must take it back Bob !
I vote brute force with the exclusive use of Killer Rabbits, white spoons and a small gerbil named Kong!
Dispite your aditude, idiotism and behaviour.. for the first time i must say i am impressed
Doesnt really mather how you got it (duh), just cool to see all those 0's. I was already happy with the 100.000.000
note, wasnt billion chosen because milliard was for english hard to read/pronounce and easy to follow up (million, billion, zillion, quadrupperillion)? Dutch has miljard, from french

Congrats I guess.
I'd have to fall firmly into the camp of "what's the point hoarding it" though. I tend to keep about 100 million on a "banker" toon at any one time and only 1 million on each of the rest of them (for changing rep and insps).
Yesterday afternoon I had about 200 million on the aforementioned banker toon (Nightdagger), which was all spent on my new Fire/Ice Blaster who had just dinged level 47. There's about another 150-200 million left to go before that Blaster is IO'ed up (mainly Membrane HOs for Aim/Build Up, ST ranged attack sets and LOTGs), which I expect to have done by next week, along with getting my "Bank" toon back up to 100 million.
I really don't see the point in amassing inf "just to have inf amassed" given that it's so easy to come by the stuff when you actually need it for something. Also, I tend to get rather bored just farming mobs...
Actually USING the inf to fund stuff like good IO builds is another story though. Since i9 hit I've fully IO'ed a Spines/DA Scrapper, a Sonic/Elec Defender, a INV/SS Tanker and a Human/Dwarfie PB... along with partially IO'ing out two MMs (Bot/Dark and Bot/Traps) and a Stalker (EM/Regen).

[/ QUOTE ]Thx Mighty, I'll take that as a compliment.
It was a mega assumption that he was just hoarding Influence, rather than both building a fully IO complete toon and hoarding his farmed influence.

I don't waste my money on sets, i much prefer creating my own Mix N' Match sets, that give good percentages, its more fun than just whacking in numbers to the AH/BM and crafting it, can be fun working with the numbers.
Such as what i did to blaze...
Acc - 95.22%
DMG - 95.50%
End - 79.23%
Rech - 95.22%
Could use a SuperRare for an Xtra 1%...But costing around 25Mill its not worth it ;-)
Cheers for the Kudos though, appreciate it
Along with 17 Badges @ 50 [4 being vet badges] and 1-50 in 11 hours, i'm on the way to being the face of Peregrine Island =P
Woopie... From being a poor tramp from when i first started out to now having a billion influence!!
1,000,000,000 - Nice number aye?
Just a lil personal achievement for me =]
Who else on Defiant has the big bill?
^^
