    3. PLEASE NOTE...ID and Personal Info only show your SECURITY (heroes)/THREAT (villains) level...only another character can tell you your COMBAT level if you have leveled up or are sidekicked or exemplared or whatever. Your SECURITY/THREAT level only changes when you go speak to a trainer and get new slots/powers. Your COMBAT level changes when you ding, and when you sidekick/exemplar.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If you have leveled but have not trained yet, then in the top right corner, in the circle above your Health, Endurance, and surrounded by your Experience bubbles, you'll see a green Up Arrow.

    Another vague way to tell what your current combat level is without asking, is to target an enemy that shows it's name in a color that isn't Grey or Purple. You can use it's level, and it's color (and arrows under the name) combined with what class it is (Minion, Lieutenant, Boss) to find your current Combat Level.

    For example, if you target a level 7 minion, and its name shows up red to you (which means it has three arrows pointing up under it's name), then you're currently Combat Level 4. If it's a lieutenant, then add 1 to your level, because LT's always color one level higher then they really are (LTs the same level as you would appear Yellow to you, for example), while Bosses always appear 2 levels higher then they really are (a boss your level would appear Orange to you). This is to simulate their actual difficulty.

    So there you go. A long and vaguely mathematically difficult brush with the conning system.

    If I've levelled a couple of times, and have lost track, I'll right-click on an inspiration, and go to the info. It says something along the lines of "As used by a level X AT"

    Once. My first day playing. In the Tutorial, someone who was nice enough to show me the ropes showed me how to use the in-game email system. She told me to respond to the email, and I did. That was it.
  7. Myself? Whenever I have held one, it has been someone who seems to have put some thought into their costume. Someone who made good use of the tools before them. If it looks like you've had fun making it, then you've advanced in my mind.

    I've never awarded someone who has just used a preset, someone who's used a poor colour choice (all costume pieces and details completely jet-black tends to make it difficult to appreciate any choices you've made), or that which doesn't make much sense to me. (You're an elec/elec blaster with flame auras?). Demonic-, Gothic- or Robotic- entries are often overlooked. You'd have to have a REALLY good robotic/cyborg look for me to consider it. Slapping enforcer gloves on a costume otherwise completely made up of Cyborg Pack items doesn't make it any more inventive.


    I, unfortunately, have not held one since AE came aboard. There are too many players using crappy costume choices.

    Help!

    Help!

    Hi guys,

    I don't know what I did, but somehow I accidentally closed/deleted my "chat" window. I cannot find an option to restore it (likely because I am an idiot). Further, when I tried to post something in the "Help" channel in-game, I get a strange, pink message.

    Image here

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
  12. The Arrogant Worms are great.
  13. Happy Canada Day to my fellow Canucks.
  14. Cannot replicate this on Virtue. Could be server-specific.

    What server are you on and what other missions are in your list when the Ouroboros mission aren't up. Also, you should test to see if this happens if you use the a base Pillar of Ice and flame and use the Teleport to Contact.

    I have tried this numerous times and it hasn't brought me anywhere except the intended destination.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    On Champion, it was doing this, as of about 2 hours ago (When I last logged in). Villains and heroes can go in, and are treated as opposing (and attackable) factions.

    Someone /bugged it this afternoon, and evidently a GM showed up in-"zone".


    EDIT: still works.

    Thoughts on I-15

    I guess I'm kind of indifferent to the Khan TF.

    We ran it yesterday afternoon. The last mission was great, leading up to the final battle. I loved the look of that last room... But then the battle began. I thought the concept was great, where these powerful AVs have been captured to aid Reichsman, but the battle was pretty tedious.

    I'm also partial to my katana/sr scrapper, BingoHall HeartThrob, the geriatric lady.

    orly?

    From the rules and guidelines:
    [ QUOTE ]
    If you are suspended from the message boards, your game account will be reviewed and you may be subject to a ban from the game, as well.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    And remember when you actually said that if you get banned, you don't care, because you have another account?

    [ QUOTE ]
    11. No proxy posting; no account hopping to evade suspension

    (...)Working around a ban through other people’s accounts, trial or secondary accounts to continue posting is also prohibited and may incur an extension of a current ban. You are personally responsible for your conduct on the forums. If you create a new account to continue posting because another account was suspended, any forum and/or game accounts involved will be permanently suspended. Forum and/or game bans apply to a person, not specifically an account.

    Probablly just as bad as trying to list a selling price but acutally typing it in the bidding price box. I still make that mistake sometimes as well as typing extra digits

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I did the opposite the other day. I was bidding 3 million for something, but accidentally typed the figure into something I was going to list. The item I was going to list just happened to be a LotG 7.5... which then sold for 40 million. Well below what I had intended to list it for.

    I do sincerely hope that any and all of the OP's accounts are banned. Regardless of whether or not he was serious with his original intolerance (I firmly believe he was, and later backtracked with a "LOL FOOLED U").

    It can't be Rhode Island because of the geography. In Paragon City you have Ocean to the north. I'm not seeing anyplace in the state that would fit the same geography.

    Another trick question.

    If you start in Detroit and go due south, what is the first other country you will hit?

    Canada.
  23. Banana McJammyPants is my favourite. I wouldn't necessarily call it "the coolest", but I like it.

    Just to let you know, I linked that earlier and it got deleted.

    Well, at the moment, I clicked on it and got a gigantic NSFW image above the description... so I would advise you tag the original linked post as such, given the possibility of the link being edited.
