*presses hands over ears to keep steam from escaping* K, I already vented in my post about Armor piercing, and i kinda expected to find this out after that. Thanks for clearing that up guys. You'd think they could have at least gotten rid...

oh ffs! What is it with this game? All this stuff that doesn't work and ya gotta root around like a pig thru s*** to figure it out!?!?! Sigh.. well, thank you all for clarifying.

As above with a few additions... lvl255 agents will always be "named", such as Agent Brown, or Agent Jones. lvl100 agents will just say Agent and yes, the key here is that you can just HJ straight up, and a lvl100 agent will dissapear, tho...

Hmmm... gonna go out on a limb here. In my experience the meter only shows the relative threat of an area. The needle doesn't move! If its at the low end (light yellow), the threat is low, and it will take a while for the Agent to show up....

Another dumb question... I've always assumed from the description that the Sharpshooter Ab removes a penalty for firing at an opponent who is in IL with Someone Else. A Factionmate recently stated that it removes a penalty for using Ballis...

This may seem like a dumb question, but I've asked a number of people in game, and no-one seems to know... What exactly does Armor Piercing do? I presume that it reduces an opponents Resistances, but... Does it completely Negate them? or i...

Woot! I think I even made a Screenie! Tho without my name

Thanks Indeed LoTek! I realize its awkward to openly discuss this stuff. It's my understanding that you can be banned form the game if you are caught using exploits. The last thing i want to do is get booted for doing something i didn't ev...

K so... I've only been lvl50 now a coupla months, and I'm just starting to screw around with PvP. Naturally this has led me to examine diffenrent ways of improving my skills, and someone mentioned clothing macros, so I went and looked up a...

I would like to see some minor (hopefully) additions/changes to RP items in the game. 1) It would be cool if there were luggable versions of the items available from Prop Vendors. Many of these items are already effectively luggable in mis...

Well, Im gonna be at Jacob's Ladder. Seems like a better bet. ((I say this cuz i have a sneaky suspiscion that Phrack is in the Know. That or hes just some insane Bible Scholar Thanks for keeping us all from going to the wrong place!))

I'm sure im just pointing out the obvious but... "R2030;S1400;V1715" Recursion, Syntax, Vector, with military times, so at least we know when to be somewhere. Less obvious http://www.algorithmblack.com/senti...wo/z131207.html also notice o...

I don't see any evidence that this guy really wants to destroy the Matrix. And he may mess with the Machines, but then so does the Merovingian. Any one signing up for that outfit? I'm becoming more convinced of where this is going. Its an...

Thanks Captain! Your ideas about "power" really hit a key point. Within the complexities and limitations of a computer system, there may lie other reasons for the Matrix to exist. Pretty difficult to explore, but some good, reasoned specul...

Garu- Actually, you guys haven't really strayed to far off my topic at all. A number of the early posts in this thread suggested that part of the reason the Machines revoked the Truce was fear that they couldn't control how many people Zio...

GamiSB, My question is still whether this is all direct information, or merely speculation. 1) I am aware of this figure and the Merovingian's research, but this is not conclusively the population of the Matrix. It might be a good estimate...

Thanks to all! There are many pieces of inofrmation here that I was not aware of, especially the 1% part. They raise more questions, and I'll try to stay in order of the subjects I broached (my apologies, as this was probabaly too many que...

This thread is intended as a civil discussion of the current situation. I am initiating it, because, quite frankly I don't fully understand it, nor how we got here. I am going to post some questions and comments, with the hopes that those...

PS1ON- I like that idea too, though it needs elaboration to create real purpose. It appears nearly certain that the creation of the Matrix triggered many Machines to explore this aspect of reality. The entire Exile phenomena seems to revol...

((OK so i'm SO stoked to see this thread getting into some good discussion. I don't agree with it all but I'm gald to see some real discourse. Just two things this time. Tytanya- while I share your concerns, I think I'll quote Morpheus and...

((The only way I can see it not being a mistake, is if they take the Matrix a whole new direction. You could run the storyline into alternate motives, scenarios, purposes for the MAtrix etc. That Could be quite interseting. Its not som muc...

((Thanks to several of you for defending a few points for me. appreciate that. Tytanya- I would still argue that the extraction of the remaining Organic matter sources on the planet would be more energy consuming than simply generating ene...

((Chemuel- Ok sure, no problem with that. They may indeed. If they have such amazing technology and energy producing capacities, Why do they need US? And on the cloning aging thing, it would seem that we can be extracted at many ages, see...

Sorry must a been writing still during that final post. PS1ON- I agree fungus could be a food source. But Fungus survives on organic matter such as plants, bacteria, carcasses, bread, etc. In order to grow fungus (which ive done) you must...

Ok a little more. Chemuel- As per my original post, birth rate cannot compensate for an exceptionally high death rate due to the maturation rate of human beings. You cannot reasonably harvest before age fifteen, and by then evryone is dead...

So I'm gald to see some discussion developing. Croesus- "The Machines didn't want to wipe out the entire human race" This is exactly where I was intending this to go. My whole point is that the Machines DON't need us for energy, so there h...

SKyBruin- with Zions placement deep underground, we use Geothremal energy for elcetricity etc. We convert this too light in order gorw plants and food. However, Zion HAS to grow food. It is explicitly a city of humans and humans require fo...
