    Remember, the engine is almost 8 years old, and it never expected to have to spit out really specific errors.
    Which is why I stand by the practice of "Quotation marks. Always"

    Specifically, peruse means to go over something with great effort. You peruse a book you want to know by heart.

    Language is funny like that. Especially english.
    Go Go auto-antonym.

    Also consider some of the definitions are "To read carefully at one's leisure"
  3. This thread lead me to finding out they are making another Die Hard movie... (the mental jumps my mind make... well, lets just say I GET THE SHARD's JUMP JETS!)

    I'm reminded of a section from the book Mutineer's Moon (free read, check it out) where the main character complains it's not fair he has to exercise his artificial muscles just as much as his real ones after he gets his strength enhanced to something like 10x his normal strength.

    'Spring' attack

    Because it made a pony cry?

    Turrets as mobs?

    One of the Doc Quantum tip missions is like that.

    Great accidental PVP map. Has turrets and bombs. And bombs next to bombs, all around the room... boom-chain is GO!... er, sorry mate didn't see you jumping into all those bombs I was sniping.

    Yep

    If you are trying to save money I'd say skip it. It's a vanity pet - it looks cool bu it will not help you in combat.

    Reward lvl 3?

    Tier 2 is minimum that is called premium and that gets you tells and SG.
  10. And this goes for all transfers, not just the monthly freebie for VIPs
  11. www.ncsoft.com

    Support link is up at the top. If you have not used it before, you will need to create a separate support account here - you do not use your NCSoft master account.
  12. If you mean paragon points, used in the market, it's 80 pts = $1
  13. Also note that damage types are not related to attack types - Fireball is an AOE/Fire attack for attack types - ignoring the fact that it deals some smashing damage.

    'Spring' attack

    Siphon Life is a melee (Dark melee) attack - and Life Drain is in Dark Blast.

    However, you do get both Soul Drain and Dark Consumption in Darkness Manipulation.
  15. No, unless you have a second account - a base both your alts have access to might also work.

    Cross server? Not without buying them on the market.
  16. To myself and others apparently, the announcement implied the pack came as a bundle deal, not as a 0pp cost extra item you needed to buy. To be honest, I can't recall if I noticed that is how it was done before or after I saw ZombieMan's post.

    Which reminds me, forgot to buy it on my second account, blah.

    Free transfer is for VIP not premium
  18. If you subscribe you get a base of 12 slots per server (plus extras you've bought or earned)

    As a free-play player, you get 2 slots + earned/bought, to be spread among the serves as you assign - that's 2 once, not 2 per server.

    To be fair - he's in RO - the SG part is pretty much a moot point.

    Now, if it was a point about the naughty Zoot, well, then it would be Zoot point and he'd be up for some peril, then I bet.

    But you are, again, absolutely correct, that action can be taken by those being griefed.
    If you ask them to stop, and they don't (or even better, taunt back) oh yes they can and will be actioned.

    RPing in Pocket D and...
    • A Mastermind comes in with their pets doing all sorts of zany emotes. So... remove Masterminds from the game!
    • Someone plops themselves down rocking a loud and bright aura. So... remove Empathy and Thorns and Fire sets from the game!
    • Someone hits you with a power and it breaks your emote. So... remove all buffs from the game!
    • Someone responds to all your /local chat. So... remove chat from the game!
    If someone doesn't stop hitting you with Snowball, then /petition them and stop nerfherding powers on the forums.
    0.o I think someone broke the ZombieMan...

    Of course, I mean, that's what you get for considering yourselves "Northern California"
