i prefer Gummy Hellions!

been a long time since i knocked on doors and got mauled by Warwolves...i missed that...ok maybe not the mauling part so much, but the event!

ran outta popcorn? now that's a paddlin!

true, and i feel thats a bit of a stretch for anyone right now, i mean i have questions about it myself but im not exactly freaking out over it either

i agree, calling totalitarian is a bit too far, though i do see the broader point he was trying to make, if you dont wanrt discussion then simply make the forum post unable to allow it, its not as if the GMs dont have complete control over that

fair point Shard i just hope at least 2 of my possibly 4 characters can be spared the wrath, the one of them is exactly as he was on live and never had an issue, but of course outside a slight name thats not even fully usable in that kind of sense, the costume didnt match either, it was just meant to look similar cus CoH didnt have the parts to properly replicate the costume, other than the helmet really, only diff is he's a Dark/Dark dom now because we didnt have that set when i made hime years ago on live lol

if you think that would stop people, thats adorable lol i mean i may not do stuff like that, but im also just me, not tons of other people 😛

i would argue that actually makes it harder because the n you have 2 million people all trying to ask questions all at once abotu "why this?" and "why that?" if they gave us a kind of general list of rules like say, "X% of a costume cannot match to be considered safe" ok thats kind of clear and not something easy to argue over, its when rules are in the dark like that that arguments and debate DO happen more either way, guess we will find out eventually

i really wish in cases like this they would have a clear set of guidelines, i worry when it comes to the interpretation of individuals things can go far and fast, and usually thats not good, not saying i have any sort of distrust of the GMs of course, but thats always risky territory regardless i understand the need for this rule change, especially if the server does become legally recognized, and of course ill comply

i guess what i want to know is what does this all really imply, like ok, if one had a Psi Melee Stalker patterned after Psylocke, obviously besides any name reference, what would need to change about say costumes? like would swapping out a couple parts to make it not QUITE the same be considered "safe"? and what about costumes patterned after characters but those characters dont precisely exist, like say a female version of Aqua Man named Aqua Woman? since thats not an existing DC Character even if the costume migth be patterned after oldschool aquaman? i have no problem adhering to rules and i do love this server, but i guess i would like to know where are the limitations, at what point would something outside names stop being considered a problem for that? admittedly only maybe 3 or 4 of my 65 characters might even fall under this ruling, but i would like specifics as to where things lie on the spectrum, i think it would help everyone get a better idea of what is or is not safe/allowed

well i have yet to see it happen on win 10 on my laptop and ive been using the 64-bit client since they released it on BOTH of my computers, even during heavy traffic laptop still loads the roster near instantly

i also have this issue, and like the one poster my Win 10 Laptop loads the roster fast, but win 7 desktop does not, and i do recall this becoming an issue only after one of the updates at least a few months ago
