Your initial post claimed 1 man sg only: However you later responded with this: So from that statement, yes you did have friends etc who joined. My initial response was/is applicable. The only way to 100% guarantee you dont have such things happen if you truly dont want something lost is to have things in on an alt's SG with no access except you. Sorry you got pilfered but hopefully you'll be a wiser for the wear.

Massively Overthinking: Toxic positivity in the land of MMORPGs | Massively Overpowered Article essentially discusses issues of games and toxic positivity seen by different writers on staff of the site regarding different games. A quote from one of the staff from the site: I know members of MassivelyOP have covered HC many times in the past and play so this is an interesting take, and I agree as a whole that toxic positivity across many different games, while its existed in the past, is increasingly becoming more and more common across the board as well. What are others thoughts?

It is. Its due in part to the system the app is build on and also in part to how it is curated. This isn't a case of attempting to shift blame to the game.

If you share an SG with others, be willing to lose anything you put in its storage, this is like MMO 101 stuff. Even people long term you've known and trusted will strip it clean. Cant tell you the number of times this used to happen on Retail CoH, WoW, etc. If you have valuables you dont want taken, always keep them on an alt's SG that you never, ever, invite anyone to.

Mids for a long long while now has been a mess. Dont trust numbers what so ever from it. I've had numerical results change literally constantly from toggling powers in new builds made on the app to the point that I have to just assume the lowest unfortunately. So what ever build you make, --Always-- go test and confirm numbers and abilities with it on on the PTR if you're seeking more accuracy than that app provides. Essentially, its a clunker that just gets enough to keep it on the road but isnt necessarily reliable for when it needs oil, gas, or the time it'll take to get you to your destination. I wish the app was redone and with better curation but for the foreseeable future, that's not going to be the case.

1. Knew you wouldnt stay away. 2. Next time you get a warning from another big ego, use your ego enhancements to put them in their place with a smile instead of feeling slighted.

Living languages change language all the time/every day. And while there are past or present prescriptive rules used in various discourse communities, descriptive rules of discourse actually dictate most of those changes as well as their discourse community norms. In other words, you're over thinking it and the typically accepted pronunciations are fine.

1. If you want more opportunities to encounter people to help you, then you may want to choose higher population servers such as Excelsior. Playing during its peak player concurrency times also helps too. 2. What specifically are you needing help with game with? A certain amount of game play is experiential learning and the game is relatively solo friendly. We also have many guides, subforums and more as well which can help answer questions for you here too. In game when you make a new character you can also choose to designate yourself as someone needing help as a title to your character. Then you can simply ask in game's help channel or its general channel. Additionally, there is a discord channel for assistance. Best of luck.

Excuses will abound by the detractors from people leveling how they wish to; but it boils truly down to elitism. They just dress it up otherwise. As an example, the ones that say that new players pl'ing is "wrong" and then attack such people for not knowing how to play(by their standards) instead of working with folks to learn to play when they denounce, kick, etc those folks from teams etc. They'd just simply prefer play of the game to be some form of an initiation where people either sink or swim and accepting the those who've swam sufficiently in their eyes. Same individuals typically also hate the April Mapserve event and the Halloween one as well. They've been responsible for running off not a small number of people over the years that have not conformed to their play expectations. Its a shame but every few months these sorts of debates on this get dredged up. They may very well win their desires for any form of leveling outside of a specific pace they wish to dictate as acceptable, but it'll likely not have the intended results they expect.

Really you could've consolidated this into your other thread (or vice versa) regarding questioning whether psychic is natural or mutation.

This is a creative choice by the player. Justifications for any origin can be made and debated endlessly.

I'd caution to better think on and treat each build you make with different combinations on their own instead of comparatively when switching secondaries and other choices. Effectivity varies and in some cases widely.

Must every two-bit criminal in the city have prolific lore and back stories in the game? Nope.

In the most dripping Southern Drawl possible: "Oh, bless your heart."

No. System doesnt accomodate that. You're going to have to run afk farm builds through the timed missions (and then reset and do it over) or active builds through the longer farm missions (so that you have less mission transition downtime).
