    I'm interested in seeing what the pros/cons are to wiping the server again before the next stress test. I know the reasons the wipes occurred prior, but honestly at this point I think it would do more harm than good. The main reason, there are alot of us that don't feel like leveling up our characters and going through all that stuff again. I know there are alot that will come back, but I've seen a dramatic decline in how many people still play vs in the past.

    So, I ask you to please consider all angles and at least tell us why, if anything you are going to wipe the server again. As for me, if there is another server wipe, I won't be back until the game is live and no other wipes will happen again.

    Pros - Clean server, no bugged items, incorrect items, deleted inactive accounts

    Cons - starting over, losing players, losing funding

    Those are just the ones I can come up with, I'm sure there are many more that will have some input on this subject.

    It would be nice to have the ability to flag and item in your inventory as "no sale" to prevent accidentally selling them to a vendor. I've sold devices, (that can be remade thankfully) mistaking them for another. If I accidentally sold a drop only item or something valuable, it would suck!

    Just looking at Brimstone ammo, the cost and other factors arn't really on par with other ammo of the same level and type. Don't get me wrong, the Projectile Launcher is very nice and has some amazing buffs, but I just don't think it's on par.

    1. 143 Million for a stack of cement bags (stack of 150 not even 240)

    2. The ammo itself only stacks in stacks of 1200, whereas Bile & Spit are in stacks of 2000.

    I'm not so concerned with it being in stacks of 1200 as I am the price of the ammo comps. Not to mention, two of the ammo comps are PM only, so...I'd suggest lowering the price of cement bags, and possibly making the stacks of ammo 2000 like the rest of the level 9 ammo in the same class.

    With alot of our members reaching 150 and getting outfitted, we have began a hard push to start pounding away at what end game content there is. We are doing nightly fish bowl raids, uber boss kills and anything we can get our guns on. Last night, a group of static I was a part of cleared all the controller mobs and nobody died! Not a huge accomplishment in itself, but something to keep us entertained.

    We have builders for just about any item in the game, and work closely with other guilds to keep building costs down for everyone. I look forward to the future of the game and the future of static.

    Also pleased to announce the updating of our guild forums, additions have been added to prevent recent hacking and spamming from dummy accounts. Check us out and give me a tell in the game if you are interested in joining our ranks!

    For the sake of argument, I changed the topic. Looking back, Golf was doing his job, enforcing a rule in good faith. I think the fact that the rule as written is correct, however the placement of that rule is what caused the misunderstanding.

    Another thing is - when something like this gets started and people chime in and immediately get off topic and post something that does nothing to resolve the problem, these posts become counter productive and turn into a pissing contest. I don't, nor have I ever posted anything here out of spite or to cause an argument. My intentions were making the community aware of a rule, discussing the rule and making something official for everyone to see. I probably could have handled it a bit different, but you live and learn. Glad it is working itself out though.

    For Golf:

    Thanks for forwarding that Golf. I had never seen that before. Based on what David said about it not being in violation of the current TOS, perhaps that was never made official. Glad it's getting added to the TOS, i'd hate to see anyone get in trouble for doing something they thought was ok.

    For Jarod:

    Thanks Jarod, the information you added to this post was crucial in resolving it. Keep up the good information!

    To give a quick background on the complete issue I had with GM Golf today, I need to give a quick synopsis about the entire situation.

    I play multiple accounts on 3 different computers, all being mine and registered to me. Perfectly following the Net-7 TOS. The other day, I was switching between accounts/computers and accidentally logged on the same account on two different computers. Two different characters, but the same account. Well, I was pretty shocked that it could even be done and wasn't sure if it were a bug or what. Coincidently Teinbau was in the game talking in General so I told him what had happened. He claimed that he didn't even know it was possible. I asked him if it were a bug or exploit and if it were against the rules and he replied, and I quote, "I'm not worried about it, it doesn't hurt anything." So I took it a step further and asked him if it were a problem that I use the same account, two different toons from the same account, one being my lvl 150 JE to Wormhole my noobie PW around. He said, "not at all, it's fine by me."

    So - I am doing exactly that today and went afk for a few min and see that both accounts are offline. I scroll up on my second account and see GM Golf (on his player toon not on his GM toon) telling me to answer his tells.

    I respond to his tells and basically tell him exactly about my conversation with Teinbau and he said, "If Teinbau said he didn't know about it, he lied." He also said it was against the Net-7 TOS, which I read after and didn't read anywhere about using the same account, two different toons. It's not an exploit, as I wasn't doing anything out of the game mechanics, simply wormholing my PW around. So, I continued to talk to golf about it and he said, "I really don't feel like discussing it further, if you do it again you won't get any GM support."

    So, these are the guys that are Net-7 customer service representatives? The problems I have with the entire situation are this.

    1. I thought I could take what Teinbau said for face value and did what he said I could do.

    2. When confronted about it, I didn't deny it and when I tried to explain myself, GM Golf, (On his player toon mind you) said what he said, and treated me like a kid.

    3. What harm does it cause to do what I was doing? Is it an exploit? It actually is very convenient for alot of players that only have one account/computer to be able to trade stuff around.

    So - Again we have to ask ourselves, how is the communication at Net-7 HQ? Who's being honest, who's not?

    I've tried to be very optimistic about the game and server, however situations like this make me consider the time and money I invest into this game/community.

    Level 8 - Claw of the Dragon, Silver Hammer, Zet Projectile Launchers, (there are other rares but I can't recall name)

    Level 9 - Tengu Bile Launchers, Spitter, Fury of Tengu, Tengu Reaver, (some other rares but I can't recall name)

    www.enbdatabase.com has lot's of good info.

    I have max enrage and hacking, 99% of the time they are resisted. Waste of points on both. Not sure if biopresson is any different, I'm guessing no. I think the resist checks on all of those skils, especially at max level should be lowered.

    This is my first choice, but I just read that Nvidia is releasing a new series of video cards on March 26th, which will probably drive the price of these cards down abit.

    Also, from a Dev/Techie stand point, has any issues been reported from anyone using the high end video cards as I know the EnB engine and technology is old. Just wanted to make sure I am not buying something that will prevent me from playing the game.

    Currently using a Geforce GX2 8700 so it's time to upgrade!

    Would be nice to see deminishing returns on the skills mobs use on us. If you're in a pack of mobs that spam skills, you pretty much have to fight your way out. For example ten-gu and grav link. Also. How about some negative buff icons like in live? I remeber there being red icons at bottom of the UI buff box

    Every mmo I've played has deminishng returns or immunity after so many uses on skills. Would me nice!

    well i got what i was looking for , notice i didnt say anthing about being ks'd or mad or Crying .. lol.. in fact i found the whole thing to be funny.... the reason i posted this was to get certain peeps feedback , and i got what i was looking for , also i never named the person in question . :)

    with a full group of lvl 150 players with lvl 9 weps vs 1 player at 150 with lvl 9 weps it is impossible to lose too... but it did happen... nuff said..

    ;)

    I've read a couple posts and it seems you enjoy doing things to "get reactions" out of people. Lable us how you feel, but It's not right for someone that has created so many versions of drama, problems, issues, exploits and just down right rotten play to even be allowed to remain in the game, let alone continue to do things in public forum. It's sad really, I've had really high hopes and have "donated" my hard earned money to this project, hoping of it's success. Though - if players and community members like yourself, that openly admit to "wanting to get a reaction" out of people are allowed to continue play the game, then the path is already chosen for us, it's just a matter of time before we get there.
