Scarlet Shocker

Super Twats Actually Really Terrible

you need to start standing before you can stand and start

Societal Trends Assume Remedial Therapy

Snarky Tanks And Rarely Triumphs!

Strategic & Tactical Adversary Removal Technologies?

Something Terrible Arrives Reasonably Tardily?

I did note the name change of the P2W vendors, but I did not see what this acronym stands for. I looked, but perhaps not sufficiently in depth. Does it have a meaning at all?

Scarlet rifles through character weapons

I still think the badge for the 20th anniversary should be "Score!"

FROSTFIRE!

there is really no substitute for just playing the game

When Mender Silos finally passes away he will be buried in a Nemesis Plot

So this gets to the nub of my question, which I asked in a very flippant way to encourage silly answers but it kinda bugged me (but not in any way enough to lose sleep over) Let's get past the "timeywimeyballofshit" meme because that's probably better known than Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity (personally I don't get either concept fully) But the whole Mender/Ouro thing is you keep going back and forth in time - and I do admit this proved to be an incredibly inventive solution to a player problem. That problem was that it was impossible to revisit content you'd outlevelled without exemping on somebody else's team. So this is a great solution and I'm not criticizing it in any way (and those of you who know me know that I will if I feel it doesn't come up to snuff.) But it's more a thought experiment - if time is as fluid as the Menders (and many actual physicists) tell us, then surely the badge should be awarded within random parameters and awarded to reflect that - because if time is mutable it's possible I spent several million years talking to Mender Roebuck, getting rid of the dross I'd picked up from the last mission - but weeks had passed down in Grandville and Atlas Park I guess my basic gripe is that the badge doesn't actually respect the awesomeness of Ouroboros sufficiently and needs something better. I'm not suggesting a title change - but something to reflect that you're about as powerful as any time lord you care to mention in any universe. So long as you're constrained within the bounds of Paragon, the Isles or Praetoria. I'm thinking out loud a bit in a bit of down time - but it's an interesting intersection between known physics, philosophy and game life.

What happened to the files that they needed their tails removed?

I just picked up the U2 Satnav super cheap. I thought I'd got a bargain, but it turned out to be completely crap. The streets have no name and I still haven't found what I'm looking for!

How do they know?

Servers are fine... just sometimes they get a little melancholy

@Riff checking in!

Welcome to the over 50s club where crotchety old gamers go to fade away.

your toggles continue to be activated so that when you stop using the carpet, they function again, without having to re-toggle. No you can't make it fly faster - if you want to go faster a) scream or b) use a regular travel power somebody made a mod for the hoverboard on live I believe, that would change the texture locally. But it would look the same in game to all other players. I don't know if such a mod exists for the carpet

I'm going to be completely serious for a moment because you genuinely made me consider something I'd not until reading this. In anything like a real world situation what I did to Hassan could be considered real abuse. And if the boot were on the other foot and somebody with immense power suddenly started following me around, I'd be positively terrified. Doubly so if the authorities were known to be on their side. So maybe you're right. Just maybe I terrified him and he led me there to save himself. He could have just asked me to stop following him though. Not a peep.

Now I'm wondering why you'd follow them like that and... Well let's just say all my psionic characters are reeling in disgust. 🤣

The entire concept has merit! 🙃

Just before Sunset, Zwillinger came to Defiant and he was followed by one of the support GMs and there ensured about 30 minutes of mayhem including Clockwork King superleaping through Atlas Park and Hamidon's big orb appearing, and plenty of other stuff. It was one of those rare game occurrences that we treasure. I'm pretty sure a lot of passing pedestrians began to dance, waving their arms in the air and moonwalk so... yes they can if they so desire. But your example sounds like normal NPC behaviour I suspect
