Can someone with Funcom please let us know the earliest date that the 10th Anniversary content will be removed?

If it stays longer, that's fine, but getting an official "it will be removed sometime after X" would let us know how long we have to farm the stuff for each of our toons that want it.

Just skip the whole step to have to roll, roll, roll and instead just pay a mission higher fee to select a targeted mission item. Type in the item you want, searchable roll list comes up, select quality, go.

That's exactly what I had in mind when i said "built in clicksaver". Glad to see I'm not the only one that thinks that's a good idea.

(ie: weeks of possible downtime) We managed to do something temporary during the 6 hours when the dimension was down to reclaim some IDs for use for the next month or so while we worked on a real solution

So, is the "real solution" switching to 64 bit IDs? That would only give you about 40 billion years before the problem came up again.

How about just making more stuff available for the shops, its not like world will end if i buy a basic q200 implant directly from shop. Clusters are already there, anyway.

So when do we get the new engine? Or are we still at the stage where noone has any idea?

Ready made Proff specific implants stopping at lvl125 may be a little outdated also.
I can't see that adding lvl150 lvl175 and lvl200 ready made implants wouldn't diminish gameplay to any measurable extent.

Also adding higher QL basic implants to the implant terminals again isn't going to impact on the 'enjoyment' of the game.

The fr00bs have it hard enough as it is, allowing them to be prey to those of us with full accounts who are targeting them, selling specific QLs of implants and clusters just seems cruel.
It's hard enough to make money as a fr00b in any case without having to give it to paid players in exchange for something that is a pain to roll youself but is sold to you by someone with dedicated blitzing characters.

Luckily for you, it doesn't even require the ability to read.

Am I right in guessing Enno is back in the AO harness?

Just home from seeing these guys live in Club Soda, at the Montreal Jazz Festival. Great concert, I am proud both to be Norwegian and to live in Montreal now. The audience here is fantastic, and it was clear that the band enjoyed it.

Not necessarily. Montreal has become a hotbed for video game development. SOE and Bioware are two major developers offhand that opened up banches/moved there, along with plenty of indy dev houses. IMVU has a presence there as well, which happens to be Ennos' last listed employer.

That's why I'm try to get a response out of either Enno or FC. Enno a few weeks ago was still in Calif and had to fly to the 10th anniversary party.
