I would have liked to hear something a bit.... I dunno... different...from a red-name other than this promotion party.

So tell me, now that you seem a bit more... chatty...

Are they going to beef up this pack or is it- as is?

As is?

Judging by the calm, cool and collected objective responses.... don't you think that this party pack's a bit shallow?

Even a little?

I mean, I'm not gonna knock anyone that gets this pack... Its just...I feel that its.... so tiny...

No, you need EDT, or Eastern Daylight Time, since most of the country is on Daylight Savings Time right now.

Or just say "eastern" or "pacific" - then you don't have to worry about it.

so... What DO you think about it?

I mean, you can't just go from "down with the new forum rules" as much effort as you digitally put into that...

to....

gonna buy this ...lets call it a "booster"... twice...

Jumping from a thought provoking activist - to a corporate buy-it-now-even-if-its-so-painfully-obviously-lame--- lap-dog

uh...

Switching polarities like that with no legitimate explanation has raised a few eyebrows, and ruined all of your credibility.

Just saying...

so... how do you feel about that?

What's thinking that a rule stopping people talking about video games on a video game forum is pants-on-head dumb got to do with liking more emotes?

It's going to be.

Anytime they interact with us in pocket D Is always a blast.

I only wish they could spend more time with us.

At the right angle they are one in the same.

Thanks. The whole "Party Pack Promoter" title brings to mind something I just posted about yesterday: Marketing telling us what we should want instead of asking us what we do want. Just seems like an extension of what was a grand time at a party turning into a cattle prodding towards the cash register

That party is wild!

Well of all the times to run into trouble with the launcher it hits me today. If I can't get on in time to catch the Guardian party, good luck to everyone that does go and have fun for me!

but i lack the flexibility to get my head that far up.

Seriously, the pack is overpriced and im not getting it. but just because she feels that it is worth the cost has absolutely nothing to do with her take on the new forum rules(which are dumb), you will be for some things and against others. people who feel they are obligated to always play the rebel or the defender are tiresome because they are playing roles, not actually speaking their mind. the angle you speak of is so binary and divorced of rational thought or subjective valuation that its a meaningless angle for anything but a zealot.

Good points.

I see all of them now.

thank you.

Today was great, thank you guys so much!

I didn't even notice there was an event today. I was standing merrily in Atlas Park when i saw a blob of red text appear. Thinking it was a shutdown message my first reaction was... great .
Then i realised it was mod08 telling us all to come down to Pocket D for a party, so my friend and i stopped planning my build on my Warshade and headed straight there.
Loads of people came too which was great, aside the whining for power dampening fields (which suddenly turned around when zombies were spawned lol!) it was a blast.
I was one of the lucky ones who won a party pack too, what a great day haha. Although i had to leave early in an emergency to help my Grandma so i didn't get to see it through to the end!

Peace out! x

Oh no! Dollymistress got flattened by Adamastor and a pack of Nightmares! I think they were attracted to her crazy outfit. But she got better.

Fortunately my character was a tanker. It's not often that one of my tankers has an opportunity to, you know, do tanker stuff.

Union wise it got very full very fast, im happy that my funkatronic ex-clockwork "Discobot" scooped me a prize of the party pack.

Much thanks to Mod 08 and the rest for setting up these mini events, couple that with the interaction on the forums and say what you like about the issues regarding the pack itself etc - but we have it much better than other MMO's out there which ive experienced where interaction with devs makes you feel like youve been scraped off someones shoe.

Its not perfect but at least here theres a voice that gets heard.

Keep the events going I say, and kudos to another year in Paragon.

In my defence I was in my random and unslotted second build because it has Whirlwind, for lulz. I had nothing to fight back with. Also, I was PMing Avatea at the time asking for which NPC costume I wanted

Now I have to buy the party pack, heh. Or do I get one for free as a prize? Guess I will find out

"You could walk away with the soon-to-be-released Party Pack and one of each of the in-game costume codes"

Oh, so I do win the pack too?

Also it sounds like each winner gets the full set of NPC costume codes form this summary. But pretty sure it's just 1 per winner, and they choose which one they want.

Yea, I thought we got them all... but sounds like only one. Thats ok, because I dont have any of them. lol

Congrats to you Dolly, and the other winner whom I dont recall.
