What time are you logging on? There are certain times where you wont come across many people. But during peak hours in the US and UK you will find many people. Hang out at Mara C, that's where most congregate.

New to MXO and have a question

While the vendors for abilities in Uriah are nice, you should open up that Code Analyzer that you start with in your inventory and give that a go. You will be able to code abilities much cheaper than if you buy them at a vendor. And at a l...

Collector Items International: Detailed and in color

Nice guide, but I'm not sure what purpose the right most column serves when you can read the upgrades/downgrades from the pictures you supplies in the middle column.

Cinematic 9.3 *Spoilers

Yeah, I can see where you're coming from. In one respect, Halborn will take his focus off the Mechs for a little, but on the other hand, his interest in Carlyne can cause much instability if they have all out brawls in the middle of MegaCi...

Update 58 Discussion

I love most of what is here. I know it's minuscule, but I liked the AFK message thing. Keeps people from constantly spamming you tells when your AFK. But, still a great update. <3 the email thing. Great work, can't wait till Monday!
