    And for anyone that never purchased the Going Rogue expansion or let their subscription lapse, we're apparently lower than dirt to charge a $10 "service" fee to change a character's alignment that a non-paying customer spent time on....

    C'mon folks. *This is not profiteering on the backs of VIPs.

    ALL VIP subscribers and any customer that purchased the Going Rogue expansion have a FREE option to EASILY and FREELY change their character's alignment.

    Come at me with the pitchforks, but really? *Are you not seeing the reasons for introducing this service?

    Non VIP customers can now change their character's alignment to try the content on the other side without deleting thir character and grinding up to a power level where they were before (if they got up to level 20). * VIP customers get 400 points every month that they can apply to this 800 point service...., or as I pointed out earlier, VIP customers can change their alignment for FREE using the in-game system.

    If you want to provide more constructive feedback like "this is a great feature that i would rather get free per month as part of my VIP membership than server transfers or 400 points per month" then we're all ears.
    heh , some must have hit a nerve?

    I love how the constructive feed back example starts with' this is a great feature. I guess the biz side of paragon needs a we love them thread.

    Now please extend the same courtesy - to acquire these costume pieces though the means I prefer - to me.
    This is perfect

    If this was the only way to get ATOs and Catalysts, I probably would not complain about it; as much.

    I will be doing the same but will wait until they are live.

    Yep

    If we complain when it comes out and the alternate was of getting it is *still* not here, it's "well it's not exactly new information, it's too late to complain now".
    so true

    My first time through I gleaned all I needed to know from the clues. the step your meant to improvise is clearly mentioned. The option for that step is blatantly obvious if you accept lore as valid, and dont be making ASSumptions that your little character concept tidbits are supposed to be recognized by the game. Despite what YOU want to call yourself, in the end the game only recognizes us as all humans, with the exception of the kheldians and thier contacts.

    So the step to improvise and the logical conclusion to use your blood should be blatantly obvious to ALL! Why? because its well documented in game lore that all magic in the current generation comes from the blood, specifically Mu Bloodlines of the survivors spared by the ancient Circle of Thorns who showed mercy at the end of the war to those who had attacked them for not worshipping thier goddess Tielekku.

    Sorry if that offends anyone that the story writers created a perfectly reasonable origin concept no worse then Stan Lee's mutants.

    Even if your character isnt magical, its perfectly logical to assume its blood( an extremely commonly depicted ingrediant in occult ritual in fiction and real life occult practices) and NO MATTER WHAT YOU WANT TO CALL YOURSELF in the end in the eyes of the game your just another human, you know this, its not news, they are not any time soon going to add a special extra layer of origin to let you pick race, because it shouldnt matter to even the hard core RPer if the occasional bit of content in an MMO is designed to be rather generic and geared towards the general mainstream standard they clearly set with the icon characters.
    yeah , does not work for me.

    this is a perfect answer. especially "poor taste in clothing" part.

    from a correction ad:

    We admit that there is no credible scientific evidence that supports our claims and therefore we engaged in misleading conduct in breach of s52 of the Trade Practices Act 1974.
  20. Dog is impressive, price not so much. especially for just one skin. It surprises me the only “products” I have purchased since the launch of freedom are the global unlocks of capes and auras.

    I have to agree. It seems to me that critical thinking is a lost art.

    a good rule of thumb is Occam's Razor.

    This

    also north of the cathedral is an airport.

    Time lapse planes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESQ62l86Ngs

    although we don't have the proper speed or angles of the video we can see a comparison.

    To me it looks like planes either landing or taking off.

    Edit: another unknown , is it time-lapse forward or backward. ?
  24. I'm just going to post what I wrote last weak (intended)
