  1. I just finished doing the entire Pillar wayback missions, start to finish, in order. I had a BLAST. I got more inf, badges and merits than I ever expected and I understand the game lore so much better now. Also, starting out at the lower levels made me appreciate travel powers like flying so much more LOL. I got to do things that I was never able to do on live. In all the years of playing, I have never once been bored because after all this time, I am still seeing things I have never seen before. Mostly, I am grateful for the second chance to play this game that I love.
  2. This topic reminds me of something that actually happened to me not long ago..... I was walking back to my RV after dumping some cardboard into the recycle bins when I saw a man and woman approaching. They were having a fairly loud argument, but there was no anger. (I didn't know them, but knew they were park residents.) All of a sudden I heard the woman say,"Let's ask that lady, and hear her opinion." She called to me, and I stopped to hear her out. She explained that she and her husband were having a discussion about the play, Peter Pan which was running at the Paramount Theater in Seattle. Her husband said it made no sense that Wendy was played by a black girl, when according to the original story, the Darling family were white Brits. The wife thought it was no big deal, and asked my opinion. My reply was' "Well, actors 'act', correct? That actress didn't have to act a color, she had to act as Wendy. Perhaps she was picked for the part because she was the best choice after auditioning. The husband chimed in that he was not a bigot, and was pleased that a real Native American portrayed Tiger Lilly. (He said nothing about John, also black, Mrs. Darling, an Indian woman or Peter Pan, a Hispanic teen.) He just said that the play should stick with the 'truth' of the original story, and Roots would never cast a white person as Kunta Kinte. I stared at him, then said," First of all, Kunta was based on an actual ancestor of Alex Haley in his family history. You want Peter Pan more truthful and accurate? We are talking about A boy who FLIES, NEVER AGES, lives in a land BEYOND A STAR, and has A FAIRY FOR A SIDEKICK...." He stared back, turned and walked away, because at that moment his wife was in convulsive laughter. She thanked me several times, then walked home, still laughing.
  3. This can happen during extreme activities like the mapserver event for a lot of people that don't normally experience any problem. I see 2 huge red spikes in your green field, so it shows some stress. There are a couple of things you can do that might help. Try using the GFX command. (It dynamically reloads your graphics. Your screen goes wonky for a second, but is refreshed. I use this macro: /macro GFX reloadgfx It can also help to turn off the particle effect for high activity for less stress: (hit once to turn off, hit again to turn them back on) /macro "-noPAR-" ++noparticles Also, you could try this command if needed: /neterrorcorrection 1 (For better connection to server) I really hope this helps!
  4. This has happened to me so many times over the years. It is usually that they are behind something (Boxes, doors, etc.) and I run right past without seeing them. There have been times when they were up above on the girder supports in warehouses (stuck or not). At times, after I thought I had 'arrested' all of them, one or more will spawn elsewhere on the map. Everything Oubilette_Red said was spot on.
  5. For me, here in this game, if a character has radiation powers, the lethal quality/residual effects is controlled by their mind and biology. (Sort of the way you use your voice to whisper or scream.....also spit.)
  6. OMG, I love that one so much! LOLOL
  7. so glad it worked for you!
  8. You mean like THIS?
  9. This was my first mapserver event and it was a hoot! Such clever creations! I was laughing so hard I almost couldn't hit anything.

  15. That is AWESOME! I also knit, crochet, and mess with other art mediums. Well done!
  16. Kieraoona, that is really cool looking! I have a whole case of nail stuff, but don't use colors often. I love to buff them so they have a high shine, and like you, keep them fairly short.
