  1. Is there a way to swap out a published arc with a local copy? I've got an arc that uses "Paragon" a lot and I don't feel like changing every single instance only to change it back later. Since it's HoF, I don't feel like deleting it either.
  2. Seems like a lot of Praetorian missions are bugged. Is there a list as to which ones and possible workarounds beyond petitioning?
  3. Lately there's been a lot of LFT requests in Help channel. Usually I respond to them with an invite to a LFT channel, but sometimes they just keep at it anyway, even in the face of repeated tells. What's the best way to help them and slash or shut them up?

1. No.
2. What bug? The overlapping doors? A patch is on the test server to fix them.
3. Point out to them that the Help channel is across all servers but they can only team with people on the same server as them. If they don't get that, they are stupid and there is nothing you can do except ignore / put up with them.

help is not a "global" chat channel. It is existent only on the one sever, but does cross between hero, villain, and Praetorians.

Trial players basically have to use help to LFTs because they can't join other global channels or even, I've heard, broadcast. Not that it's a great thing for the channel but even on one of the most populous servers (Virtue) it's never really been a problem relative to powerset trolling or general chat or the other million things flooding help.
