And sometimes they're stuck in an orange suit, and you realize you've just met Gordon Freemint.

Not necessarily. (I don't, for instance.)

If you don't know who has your name, /getglobalname charactername will give you the global and you can PM or email them.

As far as I’m aware the magnitude/value of the core function is weaker in basically every case too. I’m not sure what is special about pets that the power needs to break that principle just for them.
While I'm neither for nor against the suggestion, at least for MMs, they are the primary offense (and it can pretty fairly be said a big chunk of the defense) for the MM. No other AT can have their offense completely removed by an AOE and have to take time to re-create it (as opposed to, say, a hold where you wait or take an insp and are immediately back at full strength.)

"The" regen nerf.

Nah. You *really* want to scare them, you make it a cute little girl in a frilly dress. Then make her look up, eyes shadowed, and just slowly *smile.* Perhaps throw in a comment about "Ooh, someone new to play with."

I don't know, I was thinking normal human height.
Is that normal for a phantasm? After all, you're summoning one of them, not a human.
(And yes, I'm mostly just BSing here because I found the wording amusing.)

1. I play on everlasting. There are low level teams constantly.
2. Do you understand that high level players get exemplared down and can *also* play on low level teams if the offer is made?
I see plenty of people looking to do Frostfire, for instance, the Posi duo and the like. If you're seeing "no one to team with," you're not looking. Yes, even on low levels.
This is not WOW. There's no real "gear grind" that forces you to stay on one high level character. There is great incentive to alt. And exemping down is easy. So, no, these people are not "disappearing."
How to solve the OP's dilemma: Open the LFG channel. Say "Hey, I'm running Shauna Stockwell's arc" or "Hey, running Frostfire, room for 7 more." Get replies. Invite people who replied. Play arc.
Alternate solution: "Starting a content playthrough group!" (or even supergroup.) "Let me know if interested, planning to be around these times, playing through all the arcs we can, 1-50."
This could even be done... *gasp* redside if desired.

No.
Edit: Actually, since I'm the one that first said it on the old forums and can see this is *exactly* the sort of situation it was intended for...

Doms are great. I like mind. Or anything with a confuse.

I'm a big fan of teaming and playing lower levels. So I worry about what other people do with their characters.
So team and play at lower levels. Don't sweat people who don't. They don't affect you.
Some people enjoy RP. Others don't. They can coexist.
Some people enjoy creating "builds" for characters. Others don't. They don't affect each others play.
Some people enjoy base building. Others find it too tedious to do much more than a basic "here's storage, here's teleporters," if they do anything. That's perfectly fine, too.
There's room for everyone. Invite people along, don't worry about people who like something different. They're not wrong. Neither are you. Only saying they are or that they won't enjoy the way they play is wrong. They know what they like far better than you do.

How tall should a realistic phantasm be?

I do not know if the pet window can be opened for non-MM's.
If it can, I would certainly expect all pet commands to be greyed out.
But I can understand a desire just to have the window as a means to monitor pet health at a glance.
It can be opened. The commands are not greyed out, but do nothing for non-MMs.

Personally, I'm a big fan of "Don't worry about what other people do with their characters."

It was an interesting and fun event. Thank you.
I think if/when this is done again, though, we may want to consider spreading out more. I heard a *lot* of complaints about not being able to keep up with chat scroll.

Except it isn't. You're talking disabling powers. They're talking suppressing vfx. And as mentioned, the tech is already in game, they aren't asking for something created from scratch. So it's less asking the engineer to adjust your seat, and more saying "you know what would be handy? Having a cup holder for the passenger too."

The character bio site is called Virtueverse. It was active during the Live years. Many roleplayers include links to their character's VV page in their bios.
Unless you guys were talking about a different effort, the site in question is very much in play right now.
They're talking about the in-game bio editor.
Also, as far as Virtueverse:
(A) isn't there some sort of issue with it at the moment? Thought I heard something in passing, and
(B) I'd ... kind of like to keep this one separate, personally. I know some people are continuing, others aren't - having a different site and keeping Virtueverse as it was "live" kind of appeals to me. I know it doesn't for everyone.
-
I'd be... cautious with adding abilities (like the broadsword example.) For instance, someone who's trying to keep a Natural character would probably be *irked* to suddenly be teleporting around (or teleporting people.)
As far as debuffs - and I just took a peek at my dark/dark's Confront - it does already do a -75% range for 12 seconds, which should help draw even ranged enemies to you. I don't know that scrappers need a damage *buff,* but a small set-thematic debuff wouldn't hurt. I wouldn't really even argue about a bit of damage (it would help the taunt function,) though the issue there is "do brutes and tanks get that as well?" (Especially tanks?) (Extra mention here for Dwarf form taunts, as well.)
There's already an IO that does a little damage (chance of, at least,) and I don't think anyone calls that gamebreaking, either, so I think that would be safe, in any case.

You'd rather have a handful of volunteers who are already taking care of a buttload of details to tinker with god knows how many lines of code just so you don't have to click 4 or 5 toggle buttons?
So what?
They also asked us to design a powerset. Which is likely even more work. Others (including me) have asked for new zones, new story arcs, new archetypes. At least this suggestion is taking an existing tech (combat auras) and applying it to the *visuals for* other powers.
As far as requests go? This one's probably in the lower half of "how much work it would take."

I have a suspicion that this could be *really* obnoxious at times, but other than that, not against more options.

PinnBadges was recreated as a channel. Most of us are on excel but there's a few in that channel on the other shards as well.
I'm on Quattro Pro, personally.

Yeah, given the timeframe, an SO sounds about right. It's still the reward, or a reward choice, in some content (SSA 1, for instance, gives you a choice of 4x merits, some incarnate bits, or... an accuracy SO. Siren's Call has an SO for 1000 bounty. That sort of thing.)
-
I don't know that I'd personally need more enhancement tabs. Lately, though, I'd been rather wishing I had a button to just "compact enhancements," though, as I sell off SOs that drop and fill spaces between IOs I craft. It takes a while sometimes to move them around between tabs so I can see just how many I have (and, honestly, *what* i have) on some characters.

Returning Noob Question

You emailed the person a few hours ago. They may only get to play a day or two a week. They may have a job, such as many nursing jobs, where they're working shifts going 7 (or more) days on, then several days off, and may not see it for a while.
Patience.
