If you think we actually are going to take an interest in this, short of "Hey look at that guy, good luck," you don't know us very well.

It's your post history. I have no ill feelings towards you at all. Seriously. There are just old threads that are largely resolved suddenly in all the places that I normally read, and all of them have been necro'd by you.

What I don't see is a single thread, headed by "Connection Issues" where you post the results of a PingPlotter Trace, the most recent e-mail you got from Customer Support, and the most recent PM you've gotten from Avatea/Ocho/or any other mod.

In short: you make a lot of posts, but I don't see you putting any work into resolving this problem.

And I say this not as some manner of an apparently perceived forum cartel, but as someone who has also had painful connection issues that prevented me from playing the game. But I worked it out, instead of just griping about it. Seriously, some of the problems I have had playing this game just curl my toes--but I got through it by working with the Paragon Studios/NCSoft staff and other players.

So, what's it going to be?

I don't know. Do you think making a mess of a private message board is an acceptable alternative to working with Customer Support and fellow players to solve your problem?

Oh, e-peens? Good for you, x10.

I'm amused by the part where the connection issues on his end equate to a mass conspiracy to prevent people from playing the game...but me playing the game for six years equates to loser fanboy status.

Instead of working to resolve this issue with other players and Customer Support, make a mess on the forums and ragequit. Good show.

Haha, wow. Thanks, CC!

Still, #4 of all time isn't too shabby. It's good to have a goal.

So do we know if 999 is the game cap?

It needs updated, but just going by this (and unless there are multiple 500 spots on Freedom), we are the #2 SG in the history of City of Heroes.*

Rock.



*As based on the useless benchmark of prestige-earning.

For god's sake, we get the point. I hope you get a tattoo with the mod-stick.

Oh, you're right. It's not you, it's the game. *goes back to playing the game*

You didn't catch the part where the regular rules don't apply to x10?

Ditto.

Humping his desk in a display of dominance/submission. I burnt some big money last night, but it's a drop in the bucket compared to some of you folks. Good gravy.

In protest of your connection issues?

Holy carp, am I glad you joined us! And to think, I almost missed inviting you because I was so busy molesting the SG registrar.

They are, they're completely different. The current in-game Alpha graphic shows four terminal points, two rare, and two ultra rare. The website indicates that there are only two ultra rare terminal points and that various and sundry predecessors are consumed in their creation.

Since that, alone, would indicate that the recipe descriptions as inferred from the website are wrong (to an unknown extent)--it would still be best to hoard shards and components and not craft anything beyond what you are currently able to.

Of course, everyone plays the game their own way. I know several people who have crafted many, many, many different uncommon boosts for their characters. They play the game a lot, and that's how they have fun. I'll be waiting with my meager stack for I20.

What makes you think that? There is some pretty obvious evidence to the contrary floating around.

That said, until it is Live and in-game--I wouldn't worry about recipes for anything outside of what is currently available.

Nonsense! Just dig through this can of trash by the homeless bum and you'll find all the most powerful items on the planet you'll ever need.

Uh...yeah. The intern did it.

I'm DumpleBerry, and I approve this message.

After the fact, I looked at the picture and said, "Aw crap, there really are five penguins." Guess I just broke sooner.

D'Argo: The bad news is that you are married and you must endure as a statue for eighty cycles in a strange world.
Crichton: What's the good news?
D'Argo: Chiana and I are having fantastic sex.

Crichton: (extremely high-pitched) YOU FART HELIUM?
