Welcome to capitalism.

No, they're selling a weapon set for 800 pts with several skins already included (About as many as come standard with any weapon power set)...then there's a pack of even more skins. lrn2read?

That would require having the authority to wield said whip. I'm pretty sure Zwill doesn't.

Honestly, I'd rather them put a troll on ignore than waste their time trying to explain themselves to said troll.

Supermegatopia, I think?

This more than anything, IMO. If it's automatic habit, it's not a "friendly gesture".

Because IP addresses are laughably trivial to mask/spoof.

Wasn't really referring to the size of the weapon models. Just the way it worked. Dunno, that's the best description that comes to mind.

Every now and then, prices on very common salvage will spike briefly without any apparent rhyme or reason. It generally doesn't stay like that for even a full day, though.

My test run with the set didn't really impress me at all. The size of the weapons was far less on the "silly" side than I'd expected and it just felt...well, cumbersome.

I'd say this is mostly a text bug. Considering you enter the tutorial as neither a hero nor a villain, it may be intentional that you can't invite someone to an SG until they're out as that is side-specific. Yes, they choose a side early on, but it may not be "official" until they exit the tutorial.

Only if the farm is openly abusing one exploit or another. For example, the old bubble farms that were tons of xp at absolutely no risk at all due to the mitos not fighting back.

So...all them. Or right near close enough.

People still play Magic? Miss oldschool M:tG. From what I've seen, it just doesn't feel the same anymore. Can't find a good game 'round these parts anyway...or afford to get a new deck together that's any good, really.

Therein is the problem with an MMO, though - You can't make everyone the "main character" of massive word events like that, so nobody can be. Everyone would want to be the "main character", and those who aren't would get pissed over those who are.

I'd still be wary. Feedback's easy to pad, and boxes are easy to re-seal.

Off eBay's always chancy. Have you tried applying the code and been successful yet? If so, I'd say you got lucky... "New" on eBay doesn't always mean new....

I honestly don't see how the level 1-49 content is any less enjoyable than the 50 content. It's essentially the same.

Might not be that obvious to everyone. Glad you can't, because it was completely obnoxious when people would do that back when you could. No matter how obvious you think it was now that you have the answer, you did have to ask, which means others might need the answer too.

When their "preference" takes them to the point of violating TOS and the law to pay someone else to play the game for them to bypass the first 49 levels of it, then, frankly, yeah, this IS the fact of the matter. I've been around enough MMO communities to have seen plenty of people who don't even bother trying the pre-endgame game of an MMO. They find the first opportunity they can to get powered through it. They remain obsessed with getting to the level cap and don't bother giving it a chance. This stems mainly from an over-competitive nature. "I want the biggest numbers and best raid gear, and I can't get that 'til the endgame!" While there's nothing wrong with wanting a powerful character, when you're so obsessed with it that you're "fast forwarding" past the rest of the game, then you're missing the point. It's like using the level skip cheats in DooM ( yeah, calling up a classic there. ) to get to the endboss without ever playing the rest.

In short, this "the game doesn't start until the level cap" isn't simply "a person's preference". In nearly all cases, it's a person's ignorance.

Because some people are captivated with the fallacy that the game begins at the level cap. Frankly, I don't believe this is true in most MMOs. Even the great behemoth that shall not be named. But, there are a lot of people who think the "raids" in an MMO are the whole game and the rest is just put there as an annoying obstacle to trod through before you can start them.

Still a far sight better than having to navigate DA for them

Well, yeah, that's kinda my point. Petitioning on top of "ignore spammer"ing them effectively only adds clutter to the GM queue. Just stick with the ignore spammer and get on with your day.
