    I just read an e-mail from my supervisor that used "there" instead of "their" no less than a dozen times. I almost just stopped reading it, and sent it back with nothing but a big F as a response. Ahhhh!

    Don't know... but it annoys me as well. In a similar vein, I removed broadcast from my one and only character there due to it being obnoxious for me to see the ridiculousness scrolling.

    I don't understand what is annoying about that... I think that was the intent of my original question.

    These days? I'm finding that I'm champing at the bit for slots. Slots slots slots. So many power choices and I have so few slots to work with before level 35 or so.

    Interesting how things change.
    I thought the game started at 1.

    It's about the destination, not the journey.
    I simply couldn't imagine playing this game thinking about it that way. No knock to you, but ewww, I would quit if I began to see the game that way.

    This is the number range I am in on my main badging character... and is also where I have sorta stalled out. After getting ALL of the Ouro badges recently (a sub-goal of mine), I have sorta petered out. Next goal is to get the last RV Badge I need, and to acquire the one for the 100 Ghosts in PO...

    Except in October... in which case, anyone whose billing date is between the 1st and the 10th will recieve theirs on the 11th. It is yet to be seen what months after that will look like.

    Zwill is drafting an explanation post.

    This.

    However, during the weekends, they begin forming earlier, and tend to go a bit later.

    I can see your point though... and I would NOT disagree with them removing the "yellow swirly" from the Well graphic that is associated with the powers, entirely... I just don't support it being changeable according to player whim since there IS a visual tie-in.

    Another monkey-wrench in all of this is that anyone whose billing date is between October 1 and October 10, will have to wait until the 11th (per a support response in another thread), to recieve their poitns... so to simply say it all has to do with billing date is patently untrue at this point.

    I have to disagree.

    I think that customization should be offered wherever it makes sense to do that. Players' powers are practically all customizable, that is good, they come from the players, and are THEIR powers. But in the case of Villain Patron Pools and Incarnate powers, those powers essentially BELONG to someone else, so it makes no sense to allow them to be customized. The same goes for Khelds and VEATs... their powers come from a distinct source of Lore outside of the player.

    WOW! I think I really like the direction this idea is going in, I am sure some folks will have quibbles about the type/arrangement of powers on offer, but the general concept is great.

    It would also afford the opportunity to create a GREAT set of unique missions to allow Heroes to have exclusive unlockable Powers like Villains. And the fact that Co-Op ones would be availble is just an awesome facet.

    Cool beans! Yeah, I believe there is a great deal of confusion... there are at least 3 different threads of folks being everything from confused to mad about when their points and/or tokens will show up.

    I know I for one, had no idea. My renewal date is the 18th of each month, so I was unsure if I should have gotten something in September, or if I would have to wait until my next date in October. As it stands, having all three of those items award on different dates will continue to confound and beguile well after it is explained. Because, of course, folks will forget which is which, and not everyone will see the post. Maybe a GMOTD in-game is in order?

    Also, while we are talking about Rewards... is it at ALL possible to have the various things like Tells, the AH, use of Trollers/MMs be displayed at the relevant tiers IN the Paragon Rewards Menu? Perhaps on that thermometer on the side instead of re-showing all the rewards that are quite obvious just to the left?

    Also, also, FPAZ.

    Those are hilarious... especially when posted in areas the Devs never look.

    Doing a glowy Vanguard mace is "easy." First, start with the basic design of the Vangaurd Wands... take off the giant top part. Now, create a curved surface that goes around 360 degrees but is maybe 3-4 inches away from the middle portion. On the inside create an object that coninually revolves around the "handle" with a top and bottom part that lines up with the edges of this curved surface like the Vanguard Shield. If you wish, the "energy" can be less opaque near the trailing edge of the rotating emitter.

    I think that would look pretty cool.
