    Anyway, won't be there cuz I'll be at work. If you do something during evening primetime hours, or weekends, I'll be around. Cheers!
    Sure we appreciate you! Mr. Sarcastic Grouchy Turgenev. All is right except for the smokes and hippie. XD, labels sucks!. Anyways, we know that you work very hard to survive and you join us when you can or when you wish to.

    Thanks for recommending me that good book we have talk about back when Going Rogue was released. It wasn't available in hardcover, but still it's great.
  5. Thank you! I will start working with the new NCSoft Launcher now. It has been a problem for me, i will re-installed all and download right now. I don't want this to be a problem for me.

    See you tomorrow Attitude .
  6. That's very nice. Real Gratitude will always be an Virtue and a beautiful thing.
  7. Greetings Capt. Power:
    I can be part of this one, since i can play Sundays without any problem.

    I will join with my level 50 Shield Defense/Warmace Tanker Lady
    Here is my Global chat handle: @Aya Brea
  8. Hello Again!!
    I'M glad to hear that you have more spare time to play. My Spring vacations are coming soon, so i will have a lot of time ahead. Right now when it comes to Alpha slots, my top Priority is for Lady. When i finished with her Alpha slots, My next one is my Fortunata. I must be honest, most of my CoH career, i have been playing the melee type. Brutes, Tankers and Scrappers, now i don't want to create more of them. Since i started to play with my Fortunata, I'm in love with the range debuffs and support. I meet very nice people like you with her, and since the last two weeks, i have relived a lot of CoH good memories.

    Right now count with me, i will be using Lady until she have all the current alpha slots. I will look for the post and join the team. See you in Thursday Lady Attitude, I'm more than glad that players like you still exist.

    I like Heartless Attitude. She really looks like a true Villain and now thanks to the incarnate powers, we can finally make real Super Villains in this game. In the past, i always felt like our Villain characters, just look like Rogues.

    See you around soon!!

    (This is figuratively true. Honest to Betsy, we're too busy playing to do forum stuff.)

    Normally, I'll say "welcome, be sure to check out the various global channels, and start teaming with public crews to find out who you like before you join a SG", but you've already done all that. So what I WILL say is, "about time, get in the game, don't screw up, see you on the field".

    Cheers, an' have fun.
    You're very sarcastic my friend.

    Welcome to Freedom Yohansen. You will find all types of players, but believe me, you gonna enjoy it. You will always find a good team.

    Enjoy your stay.
  10. Now in my break, i want to thank you both Turg and L. Attitude for helping me in my quest to the Incarnate. Now i feel like the need to be more involved in teams, something i always avoid, big teams! but now there is no choice and i must get use to. Thank You both for your patience in explaining me all about the Alpha Slots. I almost have my second, so tonight I will be looking for more Task Forces.

    See you in game tonight. (if you are on! of course)
  11. That's great Add me to my global. I will be in Atlas Park with Lady.

    Thanks a lot.

    For example... having a female character named phoenix who has fire blasts and energy manipulation and uses the valkyrie costume pieces in various shades of red and yellow is fine

    but having a female psi/psi dominator named phoenix who's a red head and has a red or green costume with a yellow bird on her chest a yellow belt and yellow gloves/boots is probably an infringement.

    making characters that are "inspired" by existing properties is relatively safe so long as you have differences. For example I have an invuln/ss tanker named Lady Liberation who was inspired by Wonder Woman. She has black hair and her original costume has a red top, blue bottom, red boots, gold gloves, gold belt. Where she differs is she has a white star on her chest, a red mask, gloves instead of wrist bands, no tiara. Her second costume has no inspiration at all from wonder woman though.
    Now We're talking . This is an open minded message and i totally agree with your description. Reminds me of a good example, a character named Joker which can be both male/female jester or any type of generic clown, but one male, with green hair, purple suit, orange Dickie, green tie, white face and red clown makeup, now that is a copyright/trademark. The same goes with Abyss, since the Abyss of this game is an female mercenary soldier.

    Sleestack: You have a very good point of view and that could be very close to that past situation. We still don't know, but that is a very good speculation.

    Thank You Tex. I will read it.
  15. Well i re-installed it and the same problem. It shows me that City of Heroes does cannot patch with the NCSofr Launcher. That's the reason i can't log in with it, and i have to log in with the old CoH updater.

    I'm using Windows Vista in the computer i use to play the City Games.
  16. Fragment of Nothing:
    Don't worry about this, believe me the names are more rare and you will not have any trouble with them. I know what it is when you get attached to a character and the name is one main part of it.

    I'm glad i have found names which are generic and not involved with any third party character, in the server play. Mythological/Third dimension being names, that i found back in the day of the 2007 purge.

    We continue to enjoy this great game

    Yeah, Whatever you say. Sorry, but your answer has no sense for me. What i mean here is about that they can't make the costume look alike. Just like Haterade has mentioned on this post, i see there's a lot of people who don't use common sense when there is a discussion about this subject. It will not be the first time this happen and it gets annoying how imprudent people always try to attack.
  18. It was very obvious that back in 2004 Marvel did the lawsuit, because of interests of money. Even they did not accept it, City of Heroes was making a lot $$$ and since they are a Super Hero themed MMO, that was the perfect excuse for the attack. It was typical that a lot of fans will be creating the memorable characters that they always have loved. The funny thing was, that Marvel was the one creating most of their characters, so that already tells us a lot of things.

    I imagine this document have been added in the past, but still i will leave this link:

    http://www.secretlair.com/index.php?...n_second_life/

    Second Life is a perfect example of this. In others MMO'S that i have played, character naming is not a problem, so City of Heroes was the perfect target, for the theme and advance customizing character creator, and for the obvious interested Marvel had to get more money. It's not good to wish wrong to others, but I'M happy that the greedy Marvel does not have an MMO today in 2011. Since they always think that everybody is copyrighting them, maybe that is one of the reasons they don't risk to create an MMO. Thanks to those greedy actions in their patt, a lot of players don't feel safe about creating a tribute of those characters they love.

    I like your VEAT Stories and character concepts. From great characters we have met to extraordinary ideas that are very creative. I'm glad this post is alive, because i always had a very good experience in the Soldier of Arachnos forums.

  21. After working with my CoH directory, I can't connect to the game with it. (Access denied) I have a similar situation like KayJMM. Now i have the same question: ¿do i have to uninstalled the NCSoft Launcher? ¿then re install it?

    If you're having an issue with the new launcher, back up your CoH directory and then let the NCSoft Launcher check it for errors.
    Thank You. i will work with my CoH directory right now.
  23. Since I'm a newbie with the NCSoft Launcher, i will ask a simple question. ¿Do i have to delete the old City of Heroes Launcher? so the new launcher can connect me to the game? Every Time i click start, it loads but then shows me the failed to connect message. I will be very thankful for any help i can get here.
  24. I got my Master Account back!! Now we need the rest of you to get it back, so we are still standing here. I wish you can get your master accounts as soon as possible. I know you will
  25. Well 2 days and nothing. The only thing I'M missing is the old serial numbers, which i sent them the original emails as proof. In that time NCSoft (PlayNC) did not sent the codes to our emails. I will be still waiting to get my master account back.

    I'M happy for all of those who have recovered their master account
