  1. I just saw a zombie with a pilgrim's hat so I just figured they had turned it into a Thanksgiving Event.

    No "More"

    I'm not sure if this has been mentioned yet:

    I've always thought it was cool to enter these buildings that have windows and actually be able to LOOK out the window!

    Perhaps we see other heroes/villains flying by...or perhaps we see some signature heroes moving by... or just random heroes moving by... heck, even seeing the clouds move/trees sway would be pretty cool!

    Which is sometimes disappointing.

    For example, you couldn't have the name "Mr. Doo-Fuddles".

    I wish they'd allow at least two punctuation marks... with the rule they couldn't be next to each other.

    For example, often I've wanted names like:

    "Heal-A-Matic" or such... but alas, ain't gonna happen.

    • I opened an Ouroboros portal and zoned there.
    • Once in the zone my name displayed correctly, but the other team member's name was not displayed. The zone for that player was still dislayed, however (Atlas Park).
    • The other member went to Steel Canyon. After he zoned his name and zone displayed properly for me.
    • However, when he arrived in Steel, my name was no longer displayed in the team window for him (but my zone, Ouroboros, was).
    I'm also still having a few problems with the team members not displaying correctly all the time...

    Thanks, Diggis!

    So if I make "Folder Example" folder private... and put "Image A" in it... I can link to it and nobody else would be able to see any other images in "Folder Example" as well as in my other folders ("Folder B", "Folder Vacation", etc.)?

    I have some pictures for which I place in my blog, etc. and I'd hate for my blog to start having broken links because I made those folders private.

    LOL, you know I hadn't even thought of that!

    To have been denied by BaBs! That would have been a dream come true.

    Of course, I wonder if a coalition would be out of the idea? o.O

    Very much so.

    My hands just stopped typing and I just stared at the monitor like a deer in headlights. It was as if I had just walked into a Starbucks but bumped into the U.S. President.

    Only cooler.

    Ding! At Last!

    Awesome....congratulations, Westley!
  12. Thanks, je saist and Master Blade, for answering!

    Master Blade, I'm not sure I understand. If the UI doesn't show up, how can you paste it in later?
  13. I apologize for the size of the screenshots. Not customary to taking/posting them.

    I guess the Twitter thing is exactly that... since I'm not a member of imageshack, then they must add that. I looked at the code and couldn't see where the link was to remove it.

    My apologies.

    I do have Photobucket, but since I also have personal pictures on that account, I didn't want pictures linked to there...

    So if anybody knows of other free image holders, I'd be willing to listen.

    Edit to add: I do have the screenshots larger on my computer, but didn't want to post them at full size, for obvious reasons.
  14. Hello all,

    I did a search for "ui" and of course nothing came up.

    I'd like to know how to turn on the UI for screenshots, etc?

    I want to say it's /uion or some combination, but since I don't usually take screenshots, I never figured it out.

    Also, if I turn it on for ONE character in my account, will all characters have it? Or must I do it for each character?

    Thanks very much for any help.
  15. So been playing this game for about 4-5 years and this is the FIRST time this has happened to me. I know it's not a big deal for many on here, but I was pretty psyched.

    A ToT team picked up my blaster and we were going at it...but eventually many left and the only three remaining were two defenders and me. Yes the empath was working extra hard on keeping my blaster in the green.

    Well, we get a "TRICK"...no big deal...but then...out of nowhere... we get a special treat!



    That's right...it's the big guy himself.... Back Alley Brawler!

    He rushes in and helps (okay, demolishes our opponents) out and says "TRICK OR TREAT!" It was awesome!



    I need to learn how to enable the UI...because disappointingly his name isn't showing up. :P

    So anyway... as I said... for many this is no big deal... but I want to thank BaBs for making this hero's night... and it just shows me that the Developers love their players enough to take time to hang with us from time to time.

    He's now my 2nd most favorite signature hero... after Manticore of course.

    Thanks again, BaBs! It's much appreciated!

  17. I'm thankful for whatever the Developers choose to give us as a bonus.

    Sure, I have to wait five more months for my much-desired level-6-travel-power badge, but waiting is part of life. I'm certainly not going to begrudge any people who have played the game longer than I have.

    Interestingly, I don't see any people who have been consistently playing since launch call vet rewards "lame".

    I wonder if there's a ratio... the longer one has played, the more appreciative he/she is of the veteran rewards... the shorter one has played, the more critical he/she is of the veteran rewards.

    And specifically, yes, there are veteran rewards where I felt, "meh" about them. I didn't grumble. I shrugged and logged on and played the game.

    I don't believe WoW offers veteran rewards and I can't say for certain Champions Online has such a program.

    It reminds me of the "If You Give A Mouse A Cookie" syndrome.

    Annoying Lag

    Forbin beat me to the punch! Just as I was copying the URL to paste here, he was placing his period on the sentence!

    Foiled by Forbin!

    Good luck with your quest, Spinout.
  21. Once again I'm helped by blade-wiki! Thanks!
  22. Your response was extremely helpful and informative, Master Blade....thank you very much for taking the time to give it!

    Yes, I believe he has the Tina arc still going on. And it's odd... it's stuck at lvl 45. Even though I do the missions within the arc, each mission is lvl 45. I shouldn't complain, I reckon... it will be just that much easier to complete them and get to Maria's!

    Thanks again!
  23. Hello all,

    I just recently got Maria Jenkins as my contact on my lvl 50.

    The first mission she has seemed to give me is the regular AV missions, and not the Statesman/Tyrant mission story arc.

    Will she be giving this to me later? Or did I not do something earlier in my character's career to have this unlocked for me?

    I checked out Paragonwiki.com on information about it and, while it gives me good descriptions of the story arc, I can't seem to find HOW I start doing it.

    Thanks for any help.
  24. I believe this is Kimba Singer... a South African poet who dabbles in French cuisine and abbreviated forum text.

    How you all got "Kim Basinger" from her text is beyond me.

    First ever!!!!

    Congrats, Lucky! Wonderful job!! You should be proud.

    I really should try creating an ill/rad for this purpose...just to see if I can do it.

    I wonder...how hard is it to get perma-PA? What types of IOs are needed? Or is there a guide somewhere?

    Again... my hat's off to you!
