Too many times you read that story and then what comes out is that they cancelled like 5 days after the billing cycle because they thought this or that.

My favorite was the Mythic / Warhammer fiasco where people's credit cards were charged 10,20, 30+ times in one month. Idiots who actually used their debit cards online and lived paycheck to paycheck couldn't afford rent
Nope. "It will ruin the economy" or whatever bullshit excuse they came up with (even though several other major mmos do this already).
You can't even send stuff to your alt on the same side I don't believe. If the grind to 50 and Attunement isn't enough to make someone not want to roll alts, this probably should be. Not even being able to send gear/items/meds/mats to characters for easier rerolling doesn't make much sense in this day/age.
If they were so worried about this, why didn't they just make shared bank between toons for accounts?

You must mean across different servers? Because you can most certainly mail anything you want (unbound) to your alts on the same faction.
If you mean cross-server... that's a rare functionality.

I don't have enough for CREDD ... I've got about 1 plat 40 gold I'd be fine with a 1 plat for 1 plat trade if anyone who is currently on the Exiles wants to roll a Dominion alt and have some cash. IGN is Ashlyn on the Exiles (Stormtalon)
You mean Rune Fragments will get cheap? Yay. Going through a lot of gear upgrades is wearing me out of runes having to replace them out. Base Rune Fragments cost more than most of the higher tier ones.

I was already crying about it in guild chat a bit last night, and I know they are fixing it, but the medal system absolutely blows in vets. My first day at 50, excitedly I queue, 5 times each time the group gets disbanded. It has been a while since I played an MMO, back in the days before cross server matching and shit, I wonder if that contributes to it, having the community spread so much that you can pug all day and maybe never see the same guy twice.
Anyway, idk, hopefully the change goes in tomorrow because I can't see myself wasting another night on that shit. Very frustrating.

I dunno man, your first mistake was using the queue. I think the medal changes are a good idea, but I really doubt they're going to effect much (if anything). For those of y'all who have beat STL: Veteran, how many wipes did Stormtalon take your group? I just can't imagine a PUG clearing these things in a reasonable amount of time, lol.
In Rift, I got a lot of fun, hard group content done by A) Tanking, and B) building a friends list so I rarely had to rely upon the queue. If you aren't running exclusively with guildies, well, start socializing anyway.

I am hoping to run with guildies more now, but what with me being a casual scrub it is difficult to line up playtimes and styles etc. The queue has been pretty good to me. Even then, I don't really mind wiping a bit, I'm not exactly on the bleeding edge anymore so whatever. To me,t his is way worse than that. I would rather spend 3-4 hours clearing a dungeon than to not be able to complete one because every group disbands after the first boss, if you're lucky.
Anyone have an extra guest pass? Bored to shit snd have no games to play. Tried this in early beta and would like to give it another go

Yeah, that is a problem. I don't know what the hell people think they are doing these days, but FFXIV was the same way, Neverwinter too. Most people who click that damn queue button are hoping some hardcore hard charging son of a bitch knows everything and carries them through, no personal responsibility, they just want to click a few buttons and collect loots. Is that a WoW mentality? I stopped there during WoTLK so never really delved into their queue system much.
Doesn't say very much for the community, to be honest, that the minute shit gets a bit hard and you actually have to coordinate with people you might not know they just go running for the hills.
Random question, do any of you espers happen to have working code for Aura Mastery that pops up the Mind Burst icon when you have hit 5 PPS? I have everything else working, but for some reason I cannot get it to track Mind Burst at all.

I feel like PUG's could be decent if there was a quick response interrupt NOW menu or even integrated voice chat (Although how long before raging xbox trolls are screaming American Inventor, American Inventor, American Inventor? for every mistake?)
Still there needs to be some kind of community standard interrupt set. Maybe a mod that tracks the groups interrupts so everyone starts to use it and pressures everyone else into using?

I've tried it, it's currently broken which is why I asked if anyone has WORKING code.

If you're on stormtalon Chaos, Me and 3 real life homies will be 50 within a week or so and will be glad to scrubdungeon with you. I've been playing an engineer tank. I'm Skorj on Stormtalon, Dominion. I haven't joined the RR guild yet because I wasn't sure if I'd be of solid use to the guild, but I may try to sign up just to have reasonable folk to talk to. Is there anyone else in the guild kind of 50 slumming for the most part? or is it all hard core raid guys chomping at the bit?
