Stoop

actually it's an assimilation tool used by the Borg, they make you think you're doing something you enjoy (in TB's case programming for a game he loves) while your biological and technological distinctiveness is added to our own... er their own. Just remember resistance is futile.

without actually dinging? Saw this and had to get a screenie, thought it was kinda funny.

What if it were possible to "spend" faction points in order to map opposing faction related items (ie: a JS wants to map a Progen reactor he'd have to lose a certain amount of faction from all three Progen classes). We have ways to gain faction through space suits, gene-maps, and whatever, but what good does having +9999 faction do really? We'd still be unable to access starter areas (for a reason) and once you're "green" with another faction you're pretty much safe from ever being shot at by them unless you go on a murderous rampage. I'm sure someone has thought of something similar to this before, but I haven't been able to find it on the forums

i think they'd have to fix a couple things before this would work, like JS character planner not having Reactor Optimization, from what I've heard there's at least one more class planner that doesn't show all their skills (probably TS Afterburn and/or Null Factor as those were the latest to be implemented)

When "touring" a fresh character I just made, my JE will usually start with a VT wh and gets VG done before the new character gets to lvl 10 and potentially starts gaining xp debt, same could be said for other "danger zones" if you want to take them to Coop or Antares before they get to OL 10. Aside from that, I usually go gate to gate, stopping at stations along the way so they can register in case they get incapacitated the rest is up to them to discover on their own.

I know the DEVs have added new factions that were not in Live (Terran Alliance and Progen Combine for example) and the faction page of character info only shows so many, is there a way to put in a / command so players can check their standing with the factions not shown, ie: Mordana or Glenn Commission? Maybe put the info in the computer message window. Granted, Glenn Commission isn't a big player but [i]if[/i] faction has anything to do with chances to analyze or plays a part in achieving better build percentages it'd be good info to have. In the case of Mordana, my JE's yellow with them but if I took my brand new TS to the Mordana Tabernacle would the TS be instakilled? I don't know, that faction's not shown. This is not a complaint, merely a question and/or suggestion if the / command is possible.

[quote name='Castagere' timestamp='1317072167' post='46682'] Everyone can afford a dollar. [/quote] While I generally agree with your post I have to point out that I disagree with the quoted part of your post, currently I am unemployed with a broken neck, Social Security says I'm not disabled (can do light work but not previous employment that included gas station attendant and Subway sandwich shop), no-one wants to hire me (one HR person actually told me he was concerned about "Workers Compensation issues"), my ONLY source of income is donating plasma which nets me a whopping $60 a week with which I have bills to pay. Yes I wear the Donators tag but that's because I managed to get in a $5 donation a few months ago, but so far that has proven to be a very rare event.

[quote name='Mimir' timestamp='1314934194' post='45560'] What I hear is "All I do is mine pop rocks" "that is all I pull from a field" "this is the only way I can get x or y ore in huge qty" [/quote] that's all well and good for now, but aren't pop rocks eventually going to be like Live's ones, where they looked exactly like the rest of the surrounding roids. Those that ONLY mine pop rocks will be kinda lost if/when that happens, right?

last I heard, the answer is no

[quote name='Josef_M' timestamp='1311410778' post='43540'] That "taskmanager switch to" hint works, made 1 time after start and since then normal Alt+Tab works _THX_ [/quote] heh, that's what I meant, I use alt tab usually too, the switch to button was just for when the mouse hangs in the upper left corner

I admit I don't know much when it comes to real life armaments, but I vaguely remember in The Hunt for Red October the torpedoes had a minimum firing range before they armed themselves (which could be removed at great risk to the ship firing them) if the torp hit before it armed itself it would just bounce off the hull with no real damage. Granted, that example's based on fiction (by one of the best writers I've ever read), AND we're talking missiles instead of torpedoes, but perhaps we could have some input from someone who's worked with missiles in real life? Nothing classified should be revealed of course, but some input on if missiles would have a min/max range. If we're going to implement the forward kiting ability would this logic apply to player missile users too (though most player missile users would prefer to remain at max range anyway, some mobs are equipped with beams and get up close and personal)? I'm in no way saying it's a bad idea, being a mainly Jenquai player I like it, but if MLs suddenly got a min/max range some players might not be too happy with the game

[quote name='Josef_M' timestamp='1311320914' post='43504'] I've following Problem: Starting and running one copy of EnB works fine. But when I start another copy the 2nd one runs correct but when switching with Alt+Tab to the 1st one the Mouse hangs in the upper left corner and nothing happens. I can switch back to the 2nd one wich still works fine but I cant use the 1st copy. Bur I can hear the sound of both copys and the Taskmanager shows both running without Probs. (WinXP Pro with all patches, Nvidia Geforce 250GTS) [/quote] something one of my guildmates told me and it's worked for me so far, in the task manager use the Switch To button, works every time for me.

This will probably continue for a while, it's not that I'm disheartened with the game or anyone in the guild, I'm just BORED! I've logged in a few times and just sat there wondering what I want to do, then when I come up with an idea it usually involves logging to another character, I switch, do whatever, and get bored again.

I want you to know that if/when I am able to help in anyway I will do so, but (at least for the time being) I don't think coming back to the guild is an option

I have a seeker, but when I got the build skill it was just as they put it in and before they actually made it a mission, I went back several months later looking for any missions I may have missed and did the Craxel Liver mission, could be wrong but I believe I found the Craxels near the moon behind the station (forgive me if I'm wrong, but the memory's not what it used to be, lol) Took a few kills to get it so be patient

finances have been tight past couple months, I'm still unemployed but donating plasma (unfortunately $60 a week doesn't even cover the gas I'm using driving my roommate back and forth to work) but roomie's getting a car and his license reinstated so I'll be able to donate more often very shortly

okay, so not a LOLcat, but I did get a lol out of it...[attachment=951:4 Basic Labs.jpg]

I don't know if it's possible, but how about if the price goes up/down for that particular player after doing so the same trade run x amount of times instead of server wide so it doesn't screw over other people doing that trade run? Otherwise I'd say if something ain't broke don't fix it, the potential to screw over other players could get out of hand (people could form trade run groups, all grab the same item, get to their destination and *boom* price decline for anyone not in their group) which could lead to people getting dissatisfied with the game and leaving
