Have him try this: Sun VirtualBox http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads There are downloads for Win/Mac OSx/Linux Looks like it may just do it... best of all it's free.

If you have one already, I'd say go for it and give it a try. I am pretty sure it would work, and seem to remember some posts that others have done it already. Look around and see if you can find the posts. Good Luck, and let us know

NO WAY

Was about to report a gate crash in the bug section, but seems the whole server went belly up. oops did I do that?

/agree But one request... When it is time, PLEASE just do it, no warning, no "Server wipe in x days" Just a surprise "Hey Happy mumble mumble day...You are all back to level 0" For me knowing the exact time of my character's demise alters my game play style. I seem to start wife agro projects, mow the lawn before the knee high rule, agree to *shudder* SHOP!, anything but play. Maybe one of those survey posts that only 10% answer asking how would you like to find out posts?

And here is what I was suggesting... mostly a joke.. 20,000,000 per spin with a maximum of 3 spins per player, unless the 2 more spins hit then 5 total for a total credit debit of 100,000,000

This is what confuses me. There are multiple choices that can affect the outcome of your characters build/future weapons or bonus. If one chooses incorrectly (not catastrophic) but only gets the hull upgrade. I think there should be some sort of warning that this will or may occur. (In game...it is not enough for it to be only here) Having choices is good but knowing how those choices will progress the character is important. It is down to not only reading the message text and interpreting the message correctly, but a game of chance, if one selects the correct path. If the missions need to be cryptic to be interesting (I don’t agree) then at the very least give enough information that the user will be able to make the correct decision based on his or her character design. If the missions are going to be based on chance I suggest you not go to all the trouble of writing detailed missions and just open up the casino, and allow the user to spin a wheel for the prize. At least then they could see what is possible to win.

I shot the server But I didn't shoot no deputy, oh no! Oh! I shot the server But I didn't shoot no deputy, ooh, ooh, oo-ooh.)

LOL and now what will I do with my new avatar?

We had an idea yesterday, don’t know if it has been suggested yet or not but here goes. Problem: The Combat jobs seem to be generating a bit of anguish for lower players. Un-hunted mobs are going rouge and killing new players. Cause: Player with job gets ctd, or can’t get to the location of the mission mob. Possible solution: When each combat mission is distributed the following is placed into an accessible location: Mob, Location, Owner, Bounty (over and above original reward) If the player who started the mission for whatever reason looses track of this mob the owner’s name of that mob gets deleted and it becomes a bounty kill. The original owner is no longer able to collect the enhanced bounty reward, but to be fair should be able to reclaim the original reward if any. The easiest I think would be to use the F1 to direct to a web page set to read the db on issued CL missions. The bounty hunter would select the mob they are interested in hunting from this list, select submit and it would be marked accordingly and his/her information transferred to the server. I am sure that there may be other ways of taking care of this but it sounded good to us. If not flamed to death I will add all the “others” that were discussing this in game.

I like this idea except guild A (100+ members) gets control, outfits all the members with xyz equipment and does: a.) move on (now what syndrome) b.) give/sell said equipment to select few not in guild (have and have not) c.) use said equipment to monopolize on non PvP (or whatever) zones (could be very bad for non PvP players) I like the capture the flag idea but needs something more...no clue what.

In Market chat today two individuals attacked a third, this was for the eventual reason that the third was holding a conversation out of content in the market channel. (This may or may not be the real reason). It started with the Market channel being spammed by “Who are you” over and over and over. I thought it may have been a joke but it turned ugly pretty fast. A GM stepped in and finally told the third individual (the one under attack) to take it out of the market channel but no public warning to Chip n Dale. ??? I am pretty sure the third individual has a good case against these two for harassment, the two instigators did not swear but they were harassing the third, and then anyone who stepped in to defend the third. I have the logs and character names and would be willing to forward these to any interested party in a management position.

/agree Gives me a headache and logging to char selection after every mob is getting old. I almost look forward to doing trade runs and the repeat explore mission.

What is a toe-rag?

The now has changed part has my knickers in a bunch, it did not start out that way and now is that way. If you read the original post in this thread you will see that it is really no big thing for this ST as there is nothing that those of us (I assume there is more than just me) that steped out of the mission tree. Or in binary 11001 and I guess soon to be 0 for the 135 mission. For there is no reason to complete this mission other than testing it, but then again if parts can't be completed due to prior parts not completed..well a circular argument there. For future stress tests if this is going to be the way of all missions cool, fine and dandy. Just keep it that way or if you change it don't change it mid stream, but make it a particular way at the beginning of the ST.

I do tend to exaggerate a little, ok a lot. And my toon is not lost. But if it had been clear that if one steps out of the mission tree at any point you cannot step back in. At any point in the tree. I for one will be very vocal now on the chat channels and correct those that tell new Progen players to just skip this or that particular mission as the reward is not worth the effort or expense. ohhhhhh something about that word in a discussion just makes me crazy!!

As clear as mine? I dont think so... hows this: DO NOT SKIP ANY MISSIONS!!! YOU MUST DO THEM ALL! IF YOU MISS ANY (EVEN THE HIDDEN ONES) YOUR TOON IS LOST! START OVER! Thats clear, even to me.

I was just made aware today that to get any of the bonus missions you have to do each and every mission leading up to the successive bonus missions. So as a PW you have to do not only the 30 HU mission as mandated by the game. But you have to do the 50 HU mission tree, the 75 mission tree AND the 100 mission tree, not complaining as I don’t think I will max out this toon before the next wipe. But it would have been nice to have that made a bit clearer from the get go. Yeah I know “Stress test” Yeah I know work in progress, Yeah I know the Devs are great, but this is the little detail that makes or breaks it for me. I will do them ALL next ST regardless of how time consuming, not fun, and costly. So this is it: Do the 10 HU mission(s) ALL of them I assume any and all bonus missions Do the 30 HU mission(s) ALL of them I assume any and all bonus missions Do the 50 HU mission(s) ALL of them I assume any and all bonus missions Do the 75 HU mission(s) ALL of them I assume any and all bonus missions Do the100 HU mission(s) ALL of them I assume any and all bonus missions Do the 135 HU mission(s) ALL of them I assume any and all bonus missions Don’t skip any or you will not be able to do the bonus mission for the next HU bonus missions. I think the mission tree should be modified to check if any missions have been skipped and only allow you to buy your HU if you have no chance to do any of the additional bonus missions. Slacker Mission tree Do the 10 HU mission(s) ALL of them I assume any and all bonus missions Do the 30 HU mission - Skip the rest. At this point if you skip any your done anyway Pay for your 50 HU Pay for your 75 HU Pay for your 100 HU Pay for your 135 HU

Thanks much for that, now we know.

Before making really silly (sorry edited) posts...... READ READ READ 1st it was in violation of the rules they made up, 2nd, the "contest" rules changed mid "contest" 3rd a GM threatened players.

There are other posts in here (if not deleted) saying that David is the only one who can restart the server. If that has been changed it has not been posted.

Agree, what if this person gets hit by a bus? Is the project gone with this person? I'm thinking that it could very well be. Food for thought.

From what I know (admittedly very little) there is only one person that has access to restart the server.
