*nods* Made a lot of friends on Usenet (esp the s.s.* hierarchy) back in the day. Still friends with many on FB, Twix, etc... -

Indeed. r/bookbinding and r/icecreamery are both pretty laid back and helpful. It's fun to hang out in r/whatanime and help ID anime people are looking for. It's *amazing* to hang out in r/whereisthis and watch people help find locations from the tiniest damm clues. (I once found a location for someone because I'm a railfan and recognized the unusual model of locomotive pulling an excursion train.) Etc... etc... Yeah, there's subs that are cesspits - but they're not the whole of Reddit. Not by a long shot. -

I both agree and disagree... There's certainly some very awful communities on Reddit, but there's also a large number of useful and interesting ones. -

Unlike other servers, HC has no official presence on r/cityofheroes. The haters and the mods rather inconsistent enforcement of the "no server drama" rule as well as general reddiquette are why. -
There are no fewer than five alignments in the game (more depending on how granular you want to be Goldside). One of the things everyone has to do when they join a new community is learn to sling the lingo. And saving them from learning this one teeny bit isn't actually all that useful.

Sure, the ability to go underwater was introduced in whatever Issue Cimerora was introduced. The problem is likely that every single body of water in the game would have to be entirely redone (as the underwater landscape almost certainly doesn't exist) in order to enable this functionality globally.

[OPEN BETA] Patch Notes for February 24th, 2024
Doc_Scorpion replied to The Curator's topic in [Open Beta] Patch Notes
The increased speed is noticeable and appreciated. The appearance of "No History Found" is greatly reduced, but not eliminated. I did not encounter the lag spike noted by @strix_. -
Which is exactly the point of the bio window, a quick introduction and summary of your character. It's not intended for short stories, let alone novels.

There were two Kronos just outside the tram station on Talos/Excelsior last night... -
