As far as gameplay goes, there is no actual first-person camera in MxO. The reason is: Interlock. Waaay back in the day (pre-beta), they tried it out. Unfortunately, while in Interlock, the constant flipping and spinning made some people p...

Email is now safe to use: There was an internal issue that prevented headers from showing correctly. All emails sent this morning should now appear in the recipients' inboxes.

The issue with disappearing email has been resolved. All emails that were sent during this period were on the server, so items and $Information sent during this time should still be attached to the emails. It is now safe to use the in-game...

Why would Flood be a level-50 Data Miner if it wasn't overpowered? No, the "Data Miner Rulez" messages are a joke, as it has no combat value whatsoever. (insert random DM Ability joke here) On the other hand, yes, Flood really is a Data Mi...

While new forums may be an event, that doesn't mean you should post messages that aren't appropriate for the forum's purpose.
