There are many words that have fallen out of use and been taken up as words in modern media. They can't be copyrighted but they can be trademarked. So words like Sith, Droid, Jedi etc can be used but only if they are used outside the context of the media where they are trademarked. Original creations can be copyrighted, but copyright expires and trademarks don't. You just have to use the trademark to keep it active. Sith is old English, Droid has been used occasionally in the past by other writers, and Jedi is a recognised religion in the US. It's a tangled mess. If you see something you think breaks the CoC you are more than welcome to pop a ticket in and I'll take a look. It doesn't have to be the full package, it can be the name, costume or bio. Or a combination. I'll make a decision and then act. If in doubt I'll seek advice. I'll also listen to an argument as to why I was wrong and if I am, I will apologise. I have done in the past. Otherwise I'll pass it to the leads to adjudicate. Their decision is final, and contrary to popular opinion will overrule a GM at times. It's rare, but it has happened.

PUG Keyes. Great way to waste your life...
GM Crumpet replied to Snarky's topic in General Discussion
I've been in CoPs like that 🙂 -
Much as I enjoyed the show, they needed to breath a bit more. They could have stretched the goblin queen out a lot more and had it be the entire season antagonist. They flew through so many story arcs that it was almost like a TL:DR version of the X-Men

PUG Keyes. Great way to waste your life...
GM Crumpet replied to Snarky's topic in General Discussion
And most of the iTrials I join are pugs. And TF's. The only time it's not been a pug is when I join Laucianna's 2* ITF -

There is a badge for taking Anti Matter to 10% health, but it should fail if he dies. -
It means what it says. The build will load but it may have been changed since you made it. Or not. It's just warning you of the possibility
-
Log in name/account name only matters to you and GM's (when we are trying to find your account). It can be anything you like and can't be changed once created

I've seen a lot of new players, but not seen much increase in bad behaviour. We still have the most welcoming and best community I've ever come across. Some shards are quiet, others are rammed. It's certainly an exciting time 🙂

Excited to Join the Homecoming Community

Welcome. Check out the START vendor in Atlas and Mercy for some free goodies to help you out -
I'm the same. As little stuff on screen as I can get away with.
-
That's a heck of a screen. Do you need to take an uber to get from one side to the other?
-
I don't do TF's/SF's
-
I generally get to tier 4 on everything around vet 27, but I do like the incarnate content and am often quite lucky with the salvage drops.
-
I personally rarely do the WST so get maybe 4 notice of the well a year. I will use the shards to make a tier or 2 when Im doing the second run of the alpha slot to tier 4, but most times I convert them to threads.
-
I've tried having the bar with my health lower down but my screen is so big I still don't see it. For some reason my eyes tend to go right so having things I need to see on the right seems natural. As with all things, do what you feel comfortable with and what works for you. nobody else is going to jump on and complain 🙂
-
If I need another tray for stuff I can always pop it underneath the existing trays. It keeps the screen all neat and I can see everything

I put the extra trays under the main ones rather than above so the temp bar doesn't get in the way

raid Once again asking for an instanced Hamidon Raid
GM Crumpet replied to Laucianna's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
this thread seems to have run it's course. Locking it for now. -
I'd normally agree with you and lock this as a necro thread but the information is still relevant and people still ask the same question, so it does serve a purpose
-
You buy an ultimate inspiration from Luna which gives you a +1 level shift up to 50 +4

raid Once again asking for an instanced Hamidon Raid
GM Crumpet replied to Laucianna's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
Without getting into the pro's and cons that people have mentioned, and speaking as a player rather than a GM, I like the idea of the option of an instanced version. These things go in cycles. The MSR instance languished unused for a long time, but has started to pick up in popularity on Excelsior. Now it's at least 50/50 which version the league leader runs. Each shard has their own way of running these two events, and it's up to the league leaders how they decide to run them. An instanced version would be one more tool for the league leaders to use if they wish. Saying that, I don't know how hard or easy it would be for the devs to make an instanced version. They also have a lot to do so it's a matter of someone having the time to actually create an instanced version. It also might be an absolute nightmare to create. Hami is the only one where multi boxing is forbidden. We relaxed the rule on MSR a long time ago, but Hami is a special case.
