Can we PLEASE get this topic locked now?

[/ QUOTE ]

we seemed to have the thread steered toward a more useful topic. That being tacos, babs even jumped in on the taco talk. Then someone had to come in and get back on the stupid topic.

Maybe we should have steered it toward talk about burritoes. Or nachos, everyone loves nachos.

this game should lower its monthly fee to $9.99 instead of 14.99 imo. its getting old. its 5yrs old now. any game this old should not be going for 14.99/month still. if the rate wasn't so high i would keep my subscription going for a longer time. since its so high i will only subscribe for one more month before quiting.

Go ask the WoW community how much they pay for their 5+ year old game. While your at it, ask them how many FREE expansions they've gotten since launch.




Seriously.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm pretty sure someone addressed this earlier, but WoW does get free expansions; they're just not quite hyped like our "issues," where Blizzard prefers to just name them "Patch #.##" or somesuch.

[/ QUOTE ]
WoW's patchs do not compare to CoH's issues. I was playing before WotLK came out and the patch that they released contained a few tweaks to the low level game (mostly mounts 10 levels earlier) and a new raid for those at the level cap. They don't add new zones or revamp old zones or add EATs like the death knight without making you pay 49.95 to see/use them.

Are there no Del Taco's in your area?

[/ QUOTE ]

Nope, all we have aree Taco Bell or Taco Gringo. We did have a tiny little taco place open up on main street not to long ago. My wife wants to try it but I'm a bit scared by it.

[/ QUOTE ]

One place I wish would move east... Baja Fresh. They were good, and filling. One of the few things I miss from living on the west coast.

[/ QUOTE ]
You've been to Baja Fresh? You can answer a question that has bugged me for years.

A little back story, I worked at a comapny that made the wraps that your food is wrapped in at fast places. Over the 11 years I worked there I saw sheets for places I have never heard of, most were cool, some were stupid looking. One that always bugged me was the Baja Fresh sheet. The smallest we ever ran before Baja fresh was the 10 inch by 12 inch wraps for Wendy's. Baja though, was only 6x6. We could never figure out what the hell they used a 6x6 wrap for.

So, if you know, what do they wrap in a 6x6 piece of wax paper?

[/ QUOTE ]

It's been ... roughly 3 1/2 years since I've eaten at one, unfortunately. I'm *reasonably* sure that sounds like a container for their chips or liner for them or some such.

Edit : Might be the side in this image, too.

[/ QUOTE ]

Ahhh yes. I never really thought to look it up online. All I knew was that it was a pain in the a** because our machines were not set up to run sheets that small, so we had to modify them for that order and then put everything back for the next one. On the other hand production was counted by thousands of sheets ran, so those little sheets gave the operator HUGE production numbers for the day. Most printing companies count by the foot.

Jay and I were actually paid by Taco Bell to eat one day. They were doing some marketing research on a new product and gave us some "taco bell bucks" for sampling it and filling out a little form.

[/ QUOTE ]

Did it taste like everything else there? The only real choice at Taco Bell is Soft or Crunchy.

[/ QUOTE ]
And when they do come out with something that tastes different they jack the price up/ The volcano taco is 1.19 here, regular taco is 89 cents. volcano double beef burrito is 2.99, regular double beef burrito is 99 cents. 2 bucks for volcano sauce and those red crispy strips is retarded.

You are clueless and should just stop now. NCSoft was ALREADY SUED over this, so I guess the US legal system disagrees with your expert opinion. And, since I guess you weren't aware, Weird Al contacts the artists he parodies and GETS THEIR PERMISSION IN ADVANCE.

Heck, Micheal Jackson use to contact Wierd Al and ask him to do a parody of his newest songs.

You don't like what I have to say? Put me on ignore. Just like I do with every crybaby whiner who screams on here about how if the devs don't do what they want they are quitting.

You know, here in the States, we get a few holiday weekends to really kick back and relax. I had my coffee poured and was really looking forward to playing before having to run around and do the stereotypical BBQ thing today with family. And CoH/CoJ decide that an optimal time to do server maintenance is on the holiday??? Times like this make me glad that within the next 6 months there will be some healthy competition in this marketplace for MMORPG superhero fans. Then CoH/CoJ can do server maintenance all day for as much as I'll care...Happy Memorial Day NCSoft!

This entire thread is full of LULZ.

I love the whole "THE DEVS HATZ ME!!! THEY WON'T LET ME PLAY EVEN THOUGH THEY ALWAYS DO MAINTANACE AT THIS TIME EVERY WEEK!!!!!"

And yet next time someone asks if they can delete thier 50 someone will come on here and claim.......

"There is no reason at all to save your 50. Once you are flagged to make EATs it never goes away. I know because I delete every 50 I get soon as they hit 50 and I can still make EATS."

[ QUOTE ]
Well, I haven’t seen it at least. Granted with the way level cap threads tend to go, who’s going to go looking very far?

Anyway, the arguments against level cap increase are many. Workload time, the PiTA of having to add more powers to all the pools, the ‘and then what?’ issues, all and more are brought up whenever the level cap is mentioned. And I won’t argue against them.

But, it occurred to me the other day when I was really, Really bored… what if they did raise the level cap, but approached what raising the cap would mean? Most just presume that raising the cap would just mean “and you get another 10 levels of the same, and look how much work that’d be”. But it could be interesting if the cap were raised, not giving you more powers, simply giving you more slots for your powers… allowing you to slot past 6. A friend of mine had a character with a nasty glitch; no matter how much XP he earned, he couldn’t level past the mid-40’s. Every time he’s get enough XP to level, the XP counter would just reset.

But it had a strange side-effect. It let him add more than 6 slots to his powers. He had a killer 12-slotted Knockout Blow.

And, being an old ‘comic geek’, the epic superheroes HAVE these incredibly powerful powers. Superman can’t be capped at 6 slots on his Super-Strength, for example.

I know that just the idea of raising the level cap generates ire and all, but I thought this was an interesting take on the idea that doesn’t involve drastic powers additions or new zones or any such thing. It lets High Level characters continue to progress and grow in power with a minimum of Dev work.

Opinions?

[/ QUOTE ]

If your name was more intelligent I would believe your story. Sadly I have never heard of any person getting stuck at a level, though I guess it could happen. But, 12 slots in one power? Thats got to be a load of poo.

I say this because, if he wasn't leveling how was he getting more slots?

Am I thine only one who doesnss't notice a difference in xp in ma compared to regular content?

Minions give minion xp, lieutenants give lieutenant xp, boss give boss xp, etc etc etc......

Only thing they changed are the minions that gave lieutenant/boss xp.

[/ QUOTE ]

The big difference is that when you complete a mission in the MA, you don't get the big chunk of XP.

You also don't take full advantage of patrol xp (it does continue to reduce debt, but that's it).

However you (general You) can choose, within the confines of a contract, to give up freedom of speech on specific topics. In most cases breaking the contract results in serious litigation.

For example. Breaking a Non Disclosure Agreement can cost you (General You) thousands of dollars if the breech of contract damages a company's image, or their product's image.

Every person who utilizes the forums has agreed to the terms of such a contract. Wherein they limit their freedom of speech on specific subjects. Threads that discuss 'Bannings' or 'Character Deletion' are breaking that rule. The Devs have every right to 'Silence the truth!' when the truth should be discussed only in the appropriate channels which every End User has agreed to.

Spreading news or 'truth' of people being rolled back or having characters locked damages the image of the company and the product. This can result in a loss of profits.

So rather than overwork the Moderators in their attempt to enforce the rules TAKE UP YOUR (General You) ISSUES WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE.

This is -NOT- a Civil Rights Issue. This is NOT The Abolition. This is either an -error- in the game's coding which needs to be repaired or it's a duly notified punishment being meted out.

Subverting other threads to your (general you) purpose will not help the matter and will only exacerbate it as multiple threads unrelated to the 'Taboo' topic get locked or deleted based on your (again, general you) actions.

Please. Follow the rules and take it up with Customer Service rather than doing your (general You) best to defame a -good- game.

There is what they can do and what is right. You are an adult ? You should know the difference.

[/ QUOTE ]

Just because you don't think it is right doesn't mean its not. They can do whatever they want within the rules.

From what i hear people who went to CS and was able to explain that the deleted toon was level with a level pact are getting them back. Is that right? Most people think so. I don't think level pact was meant to be used that way and they should not get them back. Everybody has thier own idea of what is right.

Freedom of speech is the freedom to speak freely without censorship or limitation. The synonymous term freedom of expression is sometimes used to denote not only freedom of verbal speech but any act of seeking, receiving and imparting information or ideas, regardless of the medium used. Freedom of speech and freedom of expression are closely related to, yet distinct from, the concept of freedom of thought. In practice, the right to freedom of speech is not absolute in any country and the right is commonly subject to limitations, such as on "hate speech".

The right to freedom of speech is recognized as a human right under Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and recognized in international human rights law in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). The ICCPR recognizes the right to freedom of speech as "the right to hold opinions without interference. Everyone shall have the right to freedom of expression".[1][2] Furthermore freedom of speech is recognized in European, inter-American and African regional human rights law.

International, national and regional standards recognise that freedom of speech, as one form of freedom of expression, applies to any medium, including the Internet.[3]

Then start your own forum and you can say whatever you want. This forum has rules set down by the owners. This si thier property and they set the rules, much like a restuarant saying "NO shirt, no shoes no service".

At a girl!!!! i hate a Fn Fanboi. Him and may other Fanbois( you kow who you are) make me sick. Players have legitimate reasons but they are to shoved so far up the devs [censored] that they dont know how to get out. Ppl are so pissed cause of how the devs handle the mess. many ppl got smacksed that shouldnt have and then they try to lock threads, deleted post and whole threads to cover it up. Ppl are just talking about in in game in in chat channels. So they can try to silence ppl here but not completly and it just further hurts them in the long run. But if they want to shoot there own foot thats there biz i guess.

But again. good for you Philly_Girl. this is America and more ppl should speak out.


[/ QUOTE ]

"Fanboi"? You can't be serious... your signature, it is ironic, no?

There is no "cover up". Breaking the forum rules gets your thread lock and/or deleted. It's that simple. As I've said TIME AND AGAIN, this is NOT the place for your issues! Contact CS and whine to them about it! Holy cow, people, is common sense REALLY this rare anymore?

This is America, and I hope you learn your rights as an American before trying to use them to defend your ignorance. Look up "Freedom of Speech" next time before you post. Thank you.

[/ QUOTE ]
This is America????

I thought this was the CoH/CoV forum. Which is fully owned and operated by NCSoft. You have no freedom of speach on here. You can say whatever you want to say WITHIN THE RULES. Get over yourself and move on. (this is not directed at the person I quoted, but at the person first quoted.)

If a hundred people leave then so what? What is 200 leave? It doesn't matter. Leaving an MMO is like voting. It only makes any difference is the majority do it. Even if 1000 people leave over this it is still only about 1% of the population. I doubt they care.

Yes no sense ever hearing anything that might be disturbing.

If you honestly don't know the difference between. "I really think they could have handled this better." and "THE DEVS SUXXORS!!!!!THEY DELETED MY TOON I WILL NEVER PLAY THIS GAME AGAIN!!!!!" then there is no way that we can explain it to you.

[ QUOTE ]
and you complaining about the complaint posts makes you a troll. the whole point is that the dev's are trying to sweep all of this under the rug without admitting to anything or giving appologies for anything they have done that is wrong. and the attitude that posi took on the whole thing could have been avoided if they would have listened during closed and open beta instead of just being money hungry.

First of all this is the first time I have posted about it. unlike the other who take EVERY oppertunity to hijack a thread and gripe.

As for philly, all I see is this now,
******You are ignoring this user******
so I have no response.

no worries i posted in it so it will most likely get deleted rather than locked

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, I could honestly not care less about how you feel. Nothing personal, I just don't give a d***.

Thats why I get tired of all these whiny posts. Get over yourself already, play the game or leave, its really a very simple decision.

Play

or

leave.

Whining does nothing but cause discord on the forums. Which by that very definition, makes you nothing but a troll.
