Neoteny

A lot of what's suggested by the join date thing is perspective. if you weren't here in 2005, you don't know just how huge, popular, and filled with live content with static content in constant development this game was. Hell, you could ju...

I just logged in, since, due to technical difficulties involving wireless internet, I was unable to do so sooner. I do not currently see any captains from any force, however. I will wait a few minutes, but if no captains show, I will attem...

This is just a reminder that a one force v. one force battle will be held tomorrow at around 6 PM MCT, unless there are enough individuals participating who would like it to begin earlier. This battle will be cross-server, but so far the o...

But there was that whole big thing about them finding Carlyne's android - the one shown in the cinematic that obviously looks nothing like this. If they're in a mainframe, there's also the manner of the machine clinking around in what seem...

I Arpeed code bombs and eventually the crafting of a kill code which led to my character's death. So, I guess you could say it exists. Pretty much, just evolve a believable character within the MxO universe, generally one who has his or he...

But we found out later that Carlyne was an Android. Ergo WTheF?

So, I was just thinking about the guy from cinematic whatever, where he's sitting in a chair watching footage of Neo talking to Deus Ex Machina and saying "Most interesting." Who the hell was that guy? For the last while, I'd thought it wa...

SoE won't cut out any games out of sheer bravado. They just want to be able to say "Look at how great we are! We've never shut down a game!" For Christ's sake, the original Everquest and EQOA are still running, aren't they? We're a slight...

Mondays and Tuesdays will probably end up being the standard faire because they're the days I have the least to do. I have children in the morning on Wednesday (and usually a host of other crap later on), night class Thursday, and generall...

*Hurls pickles*

Since the Oracle's dead, the mission wouldn't make much sense, now, would it? I hope it's something different. I always hated the Smith events.

The rules have now been updated to be more clear and correct (the current awardspace rules indicate that a ship without an action in a phase can still fire turrets, which is not accurate). Hopefully, this will make the game easier for new...

Merovingians won and Neoteny escaped. Sieges and MetaLogic received 3 XP for winning and surviving. Neoteny received 3 XP for escaping through the right of the map. TekMon received 2 XP for winning. Deffdog received 1 XP for participating....

By general consensus, then, the battle will be at 7 PM MCT.

I would like to know if there is interest in a battle tonight at around 6 or 7 PM MCT. It would, again, be held as a 3 v 3 v 3 with special, but differing circumstances.

1000 Times No. This post will get me banned for excessive negativity.

You're hopeful. You'll learn.

I'll submit a for real answer, I guess. For the current day, at least. Zion - QuiDormit, Vaala, RedBindi, Fenshire Machinists - There aren't any. Merovingian - Void, Akunin, Noxton Cypherite - There aren't any. Although if I'm allowed to b...

I have a better one somewhere, but I'll go with this one for the lulz.
