IT'S CRIMEFIGHTING TIME! And no, to my knowledge, that's not a typo.

I hate having a bunch of slots blocked off with stored inf., but not as much as I hate the thought that I'm going to accidentally cancel a bid and lose a bunch of inf. Wish I could think of a better and easier solution.

Quote:OMG, that's Baldwin P. "Bulletproof" Vess, isn't it?Has anyone here heard of Genetic Alteration Enhancements or Gadget Enhancements? My current contact, Merisel Valenzuela, made reference to these being the types of enhancements being carried by the contacts she was introducing me to.

Thanks for the size advice. I was worried about overkill, but maybe I'll price shop the 1.5s, too.
-
Good thoughts, so far, thank you both. I'd already been looking at a Seagate or Western Digital, so good to know I'm on the right track. Thanks!
Also, still listening! -
Hey techies--I know this isn't CoX-related, officially, but my hard drive is practically overflowing. I know that CoX performance will improve, slightly, if there is at least wiggle room--I haven't been able to defrag in months.
So here I am, requesting recommendations for an external hard drive. It doesn't necessarily have to be external--I'm just thinking that that will be the easiest method. I know relatively little about building computers, but I've reliably upgraded the old workhorse over the past several years, so I'm capable of answering more technically-minded questions.
Unless someone feels keen on recommending otherwise, I'm looking for something in the 1TB region. Most of my hard drive consists of my music collection and family photos, which I plan on safely moving. The rest will be able to reliable hold about two dozen DVDs of files I've had to burn and shelve.
I've been poking around NewEgg for the past few months, but if you were me--what would you do?
Thanks in advance--

Quote:It's never been fixed and always operated in the buggy way you described.
Window Transparency Setting
It doesn't stick. Every time the options window is opened the slider moves toward zero.
Workaround: The transparency of the windows can be set with the /window_color command. It takes an argument of four integers from 0 - 255 each separated by a space. The four integers set the Red, Green, Blue, and Alpha (transparency) values. And so, e.g.,
- /window_color 0 255 0 100 -- would yield very green window borders that are nearly half transparent with the window space on the inside nearly invisible.
- /window_color 200 0 200 230 -- would yield very purple borders about 60% opaque and an inside window about 90% opaque.
Such commands can be set to a bind or macro or popmenu for quick resetting. Or it can be bound to an often used command so that it's constantly being reset without having to think about it.
This^^^. It has never been fixed. I've worked with several community managers on it, and was last told (by Ex Libris, I believe) that they have yet to discover a reliable way to reproduce the bug. It just happens ALL THE TIME, so they can't isolate the cause. -
Morv is always my go-to person for language questions. You could try PMing her, she has a few specialties. Or you could just make it up, like I always do.

Open a support ticket. The good thing is, you won't even have to be online when a GM fixes this one.

Quote:1)A "bank" system of some sort..each player on a server has 1 bank account at a bank and all their toons can deposit and withdraw from it.maybe 2 locations like atlas and talos or something (or even more).But somewhere easily accessable to both yellow and green lines.It sure beats having to use someone else to transfer money.Maybe a SMALL charge for using it. Note the word SMALL lol.(Of course free would be better).We already have to pay for server transfers,extra toon slots,and expansion packs that probably arent worth paying for *cough* wedding pack *cough*...We're gonna transfer money anyway so why not make it official?
2)Kill a server.Now that the AE controversy hype (and overhype) has died down some servers are dead again and some stayed dead even during the AE "gold rush".Isn't it about time everyone on dead server(s) was/were moved from one to another.Im not saying kill alot of em but 1 MAYBE 2 would help.You neutered AE to urge people to get back to teaming (and force people to work for a living lol) but while it worked for some servers, others it didnt.
Just my opinion..but I think the first one shouldve been done a long time ago...opinions?
People, let's not be so hasty. You are suggesting that they kill Freedom, right? -
@Thaneval, here. I'm not often on, but my offer extends to anyone who needs it on Virtue. Folks can vouch that I'm trustworthy as a swag courier, too. Leave a message if need be.
-
Apparently, I'm casually hardcore--accomplishing all the "hardcore" things, but still playing waaaay less than 10 hours a week.
-
The new badges and salvage are already pretty sweet. I'm pumped for this year's Halloween.

-
Nah, too much riffraff. Let's make it...like 5billion inf.
-
Holy crap, I have way more influence on Virtue than I can use. I'd be happy to convert some to infamy, OP, and anyone else interested.

The only time the wikia is up to date is when the goons over there cut and paste the articles from the real wiki, using a ToS backdoor.

I look forward to it! Sorry, Laev, I was in Tokyo for a week and a half.

Quote:I still miss that character. Wish I'd participated more in that SG than I did.As far as this game goes:
It's one thing to kill a character--a lot of people have done that--but it's another thing entirely to have them stay dead. That's more of a rarity.
I did it with a character a couple of years ago. I knew, at creation, that she was going to die. Despite that knowledge, when the time finally came, it still ended up being a heart-wrenching and bittersweet experience. And not just for me.
I think part of the impact stemmed from the way it happened. She wasn't killed, there was no heroic sacrifice. Instead, one day she just... stopped; fell over in the middle of a SG meeting. And that was that. She was gone.
It's still one of the most powerful roleplay experiences I've had on this game. -
I've only missed out on one name I wanted, and I just added an adjective to it. Problem solved.

I got ten, but there are already two elevens in here so I concede the point.
