All I want from this anniversary is an update from Walrus about the future (or lack thereof) of MxO. Hopefully the article that Walrus said he owed Virrago will be written and posted soon and isn't just an article about the anniversary, es...

And as I have said before, if some people do try this and you decide for whatever reason not to, what will you lose by it? I personally don't think anything will come by doing this, but at least I will know that I have tried something, no...

On the Main Character RSI topic mentioned earlier on: It may just be me, but if it comes down to choosing between having Main Character RSI masks available all year round or just having them available at Halloween then I would choose all y...
I don't think we'll see anything different this year then last year. Even though Black T-Shirts with a word on them are probably the easiest things to make, it would mean someone actually adding content. Honestly though I thought those shi...

30 Mil for Mr McNeal and if those Sleepwalker Pants you offered in the other thread for 70 Mil are new (full purity and stability), I'll take them too.

Yup, closed. I believe yesterday's downtime was about SOE Account and Commerce flow and the Station Store undergoing maintenance, not the servers themselves. Were the servers shut down yesterday or was it just people's accounts unavailable...

No. But now that I have, I think that WB have been/are being overprotective of the entire franchise and in doing so suffocate it. But I think the point that Monolith didn't entirely pass any guides etc.. and SOE are content with letting it...
I would imagine the vista issues require a coding fix, band-aid workarounds just aren't going to cut it. The person to do it would possibly be Dracomet but I think the staff are too worried about delving too deep into the game's code and c...

Well when you take a step back and look at it, we could have gotten the Vista fixes and the RSI captures and that's it. At the very least people who've wanted a white area k or black headgear for ages can now get them. Anything other then...
