So ... I generally don't frequent these forums, but I spotted this upon perusal today and gotta throw my 2 inf in...
Are you bleeping kidding me?!?! So not only do we pay $15 a month as VIPs, and get gauged for the latest and greats on the market, nickel and dimed. But NOW we're being told that we, as players and poster, can't post to an old thread that one of us created ..... just cuz?
Please tell me there's a logical reason for this .....

We're getting way more content, powers, costumes, and really everything else now than we ever got before. The money gained from the market gets funneled right back into things like Staff Fighting, Dark Control, or Water Blast, which would have taken years to design in the past. And the Rocket Board, Beast Mastery, extra costume slots, and a lot of other things people love would have never made it off the drawing board. Plus a subscription gets you 400 free points every month to get stuff on the market. 550 points if you're a tier 9 VIP. And VIPs still get free powers and costumes, as well. Personally, I love the free server transfers we get, since if you stack two you can use 'em as a free rename.|

There's always the option of playing the game for absolutely free, if you can't/don't want to pay the sub or just sick of the game, though.

If the Pet Peeves thread was that important, it should've been stickied. That would protect it. But it's just a thread about complaining, and really shouldn't be the first thing anyone visiting our server's forums should see, tbh.
or... just open a new thread for it?

Keep posting in it, and you don't lose your thread. Simple. Effective. Rule abiding.
/If they get old, there's a pretty good reason it's not being posted in. Unless it's a sticky, it's time to die, thread. *whips out chainsaw*
August 31, 2012. A Day that will Live in Infamy. Or Information. Possibly Influence. Well, Inf, anyway. Thank you, Paragon Studios, for what you did, and the enjoyment and camaraderie you brought.
This is houtex, aka Mike, signing off the forums. G'night all. - 10/26/2012
Well... perhaps I was premature about that whole 'signing off' thing... - 11-9-2012
Can you point to me the thread that came before the Pet Peeves thread? The thread has been "necro'd" several times but it IS an ongoing thread. Any particular reason you decided to lock it?
