  1. I want my 7' gargoyle to carry around a great sword as long as he is tall. That's been my character concept since 2000 (the pen and paper days). That's what Titan Weapons should be about.

    Historically, zweihanders and flamberges are a great allegory for the concept.

    I'm looking forward to seeing this weapon set in action - I obviously have a concept waiting in the wings

    This means no one confirmed whether or not that's the case, so you can't use the wiki as your source material. (The wiki isn't always right, sad to say.)
    I think what I'm trying to convey is that I'm confirming it. I would change the wiki to be accurate, but I am unsure on if things changed again with the I21 publish and the F2P players. Thinking about it, if Premium accounts with market access become inactive, will their AH inventory be saved indefinitely? Seems like a huge burden on the database.
  3. I'm pretty sure someone who worked for that game company would realize that the Player Questions section was for actual questions. I'm not sure what the OP is, but a question is something it isn't.
  4. Meant to say 18000px^2. Need more sleep I suppose

    And Thnx for pointing that out Tex. Looks like I've been personally mistaken for years

    I offer my sincerest congratulations on your anniversary

    Lamentably, between part-time work, part-time school, and full-time newborn duty, I must RSVP in the negative. However, I wish Tanker Tuesdays many great years to come

    I am fine with AT consolidation as it has been proposed. As a Tanker, I see comparison between Tanks and Brutes a lot on these forums, and IMPO merging the two subjects jsut seems a natural way to streamline the discussion.

    One thing I saw:

    Signature Images are limited to 600x120 pixels AND must be less than 150kb
    I thought current forum avatar allowable size was 600 x 150 px. Can this be verified? Else, many posters may have to shave 18000 px^2 off of their signature pictures.

    Then you should have contacted a GM. Due to complaints from returning inactive players, items on the AH never expire as of several issues ago (before I even took my hiatus).

    When I came back after ~6 month hiatus with a lapsed account, all of my items on my characters who had items stored in the AH were still there.

  8. Duh. Everyone knows that only a single metric is used to determine a Dev's Choice

    This, I know. But thanks for pointing out the obvious, despite my unbridled and apparently unchecked optimism

    Been one fore years, and still no fixes to bases

    Taxpayers only get so much control over how their dollars are spent towards the greater good. Posi keep saying they have plans for bases in the near future, but I'll believe him when I see it

    That being said, my base has also been biohazard'ed Glad to know that there's no current fix so I don't waste my time on it at the moment.
  11. Still looking forward to Titan Weapons, hopefully shortly after Street Justice arrives

    That would be pretty evil in the grand scheme of things. So I wouldn't put it past anyone

  14. They'd rather use the dev cycles to make stuff to sell you on the Market, rather than making stuff they'd have to give out without charging you for it

    My thread on this subject.
  15. AFAIK, Working As Intended. Having access to Ouro at lvl 14 is meant to deliver an alternate method of travel and a social zone, but using the Flashback system is still restricted to lvl 25+

    Of course he would, then he could complain even more about server maintenance and ask for even more PP "owed" to him. Genius!

    Edit: LOL, Blue_Mourning beat me to it

    Aside: paragnwiki should have a template for badges. Account wide or per character, related faction (hero / villain/ Praetorian), badge type (Veteran, Exploration, History, etc.), and so forth. Wonder if I can figure out how to make a cool template for that when I'm not buried in other matters.
  18. I like the signature, but I was always a believer of this pie chart.

    This is LIVE - no longer the Beta test. We are paying them to BETA TEST the game. They call it a "Head start" do you feel like you are getting a Head Start or do you feel like you are Beta testing?

    This is terrible customer service on the par with AT&T.
    Because everyone knows that a subscription for an entertainment service is equally important as critical phone line service

    Somebody call the BBB! (If you have AT&T, GL not having the call dropped.)

    But seriously, not only did they recently launch a major patch, but they also did major hardware upgrades to the servers. If you can't deal with that, it might be time to find another hobby for a bit
  20. RRRRAAAAGGGGGGEEEEEE!!!!!!

    Wait, what was the question again?

    (And really, what do I care if a player drops $1500 into the game over seven years or seven days? It still pays NCSoft the same either way)

    According to the EULA, irrelevant.

The story might not be the best but it's simple, which leaves less room for them to mess up. I wouldn't rate it as one of the best arc's out there, but it wasn't bad either.
    /facepalm

    You are right. I think the problem is that my wife's character had the mission for SO LONG that it still has the old version of the arcs Glad I helped her clear it out then LOL
