This. I earned a debt badge simply by zoning one time cause it added a small amount of patrolXP, which was immediately eaten by the debt I had.

It appears to me that for some reason, it forgets you were online and uses the time you logged in as a reference and gives you the cooresponding XP from that time period (and powers are reset as well as if you were just logging in for the first time that day).

Also, I used to keep track of my dayjobs, and it seems my Ouro and Hospital dayjobs have earned a couple extra hours, possibly from the same type of bug happeneing when porting from the end of a mission to Ouro, or to the Hospital when dying. (or I simply miscalculated how many hours I really had. haha)

And it would be wise to note that you are defaulted back to a limit of 2.0 (200%) every time you zone. I have it bound to a key so I can easily reset it back to 4 when I am outside

The affected character in my example was created AFTER the wipe. Otherwise, he would be like all the rest of my characters and have XXV already because of all the old global badges.

That said, the 4 global badges that he automatically earned after being created should have been the "new version" of them and count anyway.

yes, but that becomes your full default file, and you can't pick your own filename. I'm assuming they want to load specialty binds of some sort, which would require the other methods above.

"It was snowing and raining so there was no so, which I was very happy about. A lot of preps stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them."

lol

Also.. if there are so many people complaining about not finding teams.. why don't they just group together? lol

Actually, I think I've noticed something like that before too. Usually when it happens, the little compass in the corner of the map ends up being super-enlarged as well. I didn't even notice it was there until it was suddenly covering half my map. haha

Can I have his 22¢ if he doesn't want it? rofl

Thank you BAB. It's nice to see something like this getting prompt attention... and that I wasn't going crazy and seeing things. rofl

It's been like that for almost 2 days now. Just log in.

I'm on Champion right now. Server Status lies.

City zones (like Atlas, Galaxy, Steel, etc) are "transparent" until you uncover them. That's the way I always remember it, and I've never used any kind of map pack. The only ones that are "black" are hazard zones.

That's a nifty trick. I probably wouldn't have thought of that.

On a side note, when I use /bindsavefile or /bindloadfile, it defaulted to the "..\City of Heroes\piggs\" directory, until I created a "..\City of Heroes\data\" directory, then it defaulted there.

In short, if you did something like this:
/bindsavefile binds\testing.txt
the file would be saved as:
"..\City of Heroes\data\binds\testing.txt"
(providing you created the directory first)

Likewise, you can load the file with:
/bindloadfile binds\testing.txt

No spaces or tricks needed.

That's not the way I saw it either. The op said: If that was word-for-word, it surely does look a bit hostile on the cover, but even that could have been taken out of context. The whole post appeared to me as a summary of what happened, which could have been originally expressed any number of ways.

All I was saying is that we can't judge anybody's actions in this scenario unless we were there and saw it for ourselves, and I certainly wouldn't ban anybody based on any of the information given. Like I said.. if he felt offended, he certainly had the option to /petition and let the people who have access to the chat logs sort it out.

On a side note, I'm not going to go to a nudist colony if I'm not comfortable being around naked people... and if I happened to go to one, I'm not going to call the cops if somebody noticed my uneasiness and told me it might be best if I left. If the OP or his friend were not already uneasy about the situation, why would there be a problem? Just keep playing like you normally would, and if somebody harasses you, /petition them. If you don't like your surroundings, you go someplace else. That's just common sense.

The date shows when the page was last edited/updated, but I'm certain it was originally posted a long time ago within the forums. I'm guessing somebody decided to finally put it on the support site to discourage people from damage farming. I have yet to run into any circumstance that actually prevents credit though. I damage farmed last night as a test, and it worked normally for me.

Whatever post you pulled it from may have been from yesterday, but I'm saying the original quote was from a long time ago. I've personally damage farmed since then, and it was working the same way it always had. I even damage farmed last night as a test, and still gained credit as usual.

Edit:
I see from the other thread, you might have seen it on the support pages. The date shows when the page was last edited/updated, but I'm certain it was originally posted a long time ago within the forums.

I checked a toon I created fairly recently on another server that I KNOW has never done any AE content. She has 15 AE badges, including XXV. lol. I must have created her before the wipe.

To make things even more confusing, I checked another character that I know I created after the wipe. He has not done any AE content either, and he has 4 "global" AE badges and no progress bar at all for AE X. Matter of fact, I can't find a progress bar on any of my characters. They pretty much all have XXV already from before the wipe when there were apparently more than 25 "global" AE badges.

Edit:
I just did some testing on the character above. He started with:
-Ticket Taker
-Author
-Recognized
-Early Bird
I did a quick test AE mission and earned 2 more badges:
-Bug Fixer
-Virtual Extractor

He finally showed a progress bar of (2/10), even though he had 6 badges.
I earned the Exploration badge AFTER I had a progress bar, and it did not add to it.
-Thrill Seeker (Exploration)
I published a temp mission and earned:
-Customizer
But progress still showed (2/10).
I ran the temp mission and earned:
-Gamer
-Mission Engineer (Accolade)
-Workaholic
-Extractor
And now the progress is showing (6/10).

So apparently the Accolade might count toward the X, XXV badges, but the system seems confused in awarding credit for some of these.

Edit2:
I just ran yet another mission and killed a foe to earn:
-Assassin
I "earned my first ticket" also, but I already had that badge somehow anyway.
(Is that global? It doesn't say it is.)
Anyway, credit increased to (7/10).

I then ran a test mission again and killed a foe and then let them kill me to earn:
-Virtual Victor
-Virtual Victim
Credit increased to (9/10).
For those not keeping track, I actually have 13 AE badges at this point, PLUS the Exploration and Accolade.

I grabbed the glowie in the mission and earned:
-Virtually Impulsive
That finally gave me:
-Architect X

I then had a progress bar showing (11/25).
For good measure, I ran a "villain" mission and earned:
-Villainous
Progress increased to (12/25).

Where am I going to find 13 more badges to finish off XXV? I actually only have 8 more to get (not including XXV). lol

I /bugged it.

It will usually end up in:
"..\City of Heroes\data\"

If you don't have a \data\ directory, it might default to:
"..\City of Heroes\piggs\"

You can also do a search on your computer for the file if you still can't find it.

To prevent confusion, some people just use the full path when creating the file, so they'll know where to find it. You can name the file whatever you want and put it wherever you want. I was just using that name as an example.
For example, some people might create their own folder and use something short like:
/bindsavefile "c:\cohbinds\ccetemp.txt"

I don't think that's what he meant. He was saying that the responses he quoted were prejudice in their own right and implying blame on the homosexuals involved by completely ignoring the lack of facts and the possibility that the OP's friend may have initiated such responses from them.

We aren't saying there aren't people out there just trying to cause trouble with new faces, and saying we should report and ban the people involved is a bit extreme. If you feel like you were attacked or offended by something somebody said, go ahead and petition them... but since we can't see the chat logs, we can't make judgment on who made any inappropriate remarks or who should be getting petitioned.

Honestly, I didn't see anything in the OP that warrants reporting anybody. Everybody has been making their own assumptions as to what happened so far. It appears to me that the OP's friend was told about a gay server, so the person probably broadcasted to ask about it, which sparked a "discussion". Maybe the "homosexuals involved" weren't even homosexual, but just people who play on that server and accept the fact that there are homosexuals around them. For all we know, they thought they were performing some kind of "public service" by telling him to move if he didn't like playing in an open-gay environment. It could prevent uneasy feelings and conflict in the future. It doesn't sound like anybody was trying to forcibly run him out of town or anything.

Like I said, we don't have the chat logs to know how it all went down. The OP or his friend could have simply taken something out of context and took it the wrong way. We don't really know.

Check the date on that info. It was posted quite a while ago, and people have still been damage farming since then, myself included. I don't know what they tried to do, or what "conditions" they are referring to, but their safeguards aren't working (for me). lol

Are you including the dayjob and/or the exploration badge when you do that? If you somehow avoid those 2 badges, would you still earn #25? To make things easy, what if you start a new character and see if #10 dings on 10, or if it dings on 9+explore (for example).

Did you mean to use "cce 0" in the second one? Otherwise, they are both referencing the same costume. That could cause some confusion.

Try doing a "/bindsavefile ccetest.txt" on a character that has everything already working, and check the file to see what your numpad binds are.

Depending on if you have other personalized binds per character, you can either "/bindloadfile ccetest.txt" on the new character to load the ALL the same binds on to it, or edit out the rest of the file first so it only loads the numpad binds.
