lemming

Going thru the page at https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Category:Enemies Not enough coffee in me yet to go into a philosophical debate over the nature of evil though. (I'll be ranking Council/5th Column probably near the top for a few reasons)

It's a global badge awarded to all characters on an account. I think the only way to avoid it is to never rate an AE arc with any character on an account.

Could do the way Fortunes are done, "Always Ask, Always Grant, Always Deny" for options. (Maybe categories for SG, League, & Teams)

Somewhere in storage, I think... Found these in a quick look

I think part of the issue is that people assume some people are replying in a toxic manner just based on past history and then it goes into a nasty feedback loop. I do not envy the moderation team.

Looking at my costume files (226 of them), -36 to 36; Average of 0.1212; Median of 2.8

For my characters, I do have a couple that I'm slow leveling (one is at 9, another at 29) and outside a few low level procs they use ATO or SOs. That is definitely the minority, but it's nice having some lower level ones that can then be swapped out later.

Maybe something helpful in End Management since that's often more a struggle at lower levels.

Well, you can get the badges for not using Travel Powers with Ouro. And that function is available for Task Forces.

Mostly Everlasting, some more on Indom, others occasionly at their outposts, but I tend to spend a few hours each week on Open Beta and others...

Not entirely sure on the hologram, but maybe? I like the idea of business cards. And could be semi-attached to notes, though those are client side.

Check BadgeSetList that GooglyMoogly posted. It has that utility

In the launcher, you can enable the Diag client. Go to settings, you should see Homecoming (Diag), and then once you select it. Uncheck hide. It may not help, but it does put out more diagnostics, and does give the dev team more info if you send in the report. It's more prone to catching problems, so may catch something that will result in a BSOD earlier.

Checking on Beta since it is not Winter there, you can not buy badges. Here are screen shots: offseason is on beta, inseason on live

See if you can run a memory and hard drive check. (And backup everything) If there's a bad memory sector, that can cause odd crashes like this. (I've also seen a wonky network connection cause issues, but not so much crashes in those cases) Running the Diag client may help, especially if you then check the logs

More than just the people involved. Who else may be a sock puppet? Why didn't the moderators catch it earlier, etc...

Don't judge by the loudest.

I didn't think of that, but yes, very tedious.

I was on a different board that wound up having two people who were complete fiction. Pick an emotion, people had it about that. It's a great way to break trust. I don't feel the GMs and Devs are being dismissive. I'm in an industry where I have to clamp down on my emotional responses and still make some rather delicate decisions. It's not that I'm not being emotional about it, but in order to be fair, i have to keep it in check even when I have people yelling at me. It's obvious there's different opinions in the HC area as well, and they're talking and presumably taking some input from the forums (and discord I guess).

I really like this idea as well if it can be done. Some directory would be helpful for memorial bases. (And some sort of plaque system inside bases where some text could be done, but I think I'm thinking beyond the current scope)

Haven't really responded to any of this, but I think people need to read with a bit more compassion rather than assuming personal attacks. And should be pointed out, the GMs & Devs are not a hive mind, but a dispersed group of individuals around the world.

They tend to be mixed in with all the other crey. Dr Aeon and any of the tip missions with crey have a decent number.

Better than Necco

Looking at the code, looks like it's defeating the spawns between 400 & 500. (This may have been changed by HC) Ack! Necro thread!

I have never heard anyone say this. People have figured out some ways to make it less painful, but I don't know anyone who wouldn't mind a better way. On the other stuff: I'm fine with the way the presents work, but would like the requirement dropped to 25 or 50. A SBB/House of Kane style four person trial would be great. Most trials/TF, etc..., most people want it run at the highest level possible. And there is a lot of churn with the WL trial for people to run thru all the chars they want the badge on. I don't see that changing, but maybe some of these trials could just run like an instanced MSR where it's just set to 50 for everyone.
