hai !
May have been better to just change that part or at least see how things go with just that change for a while before tinkering with the level ranges. Oh, well, can always change things around some more later.
Kinda reminded me of the intro for the old Bionicman TV show.

I asked that last week, he didn't answer it, I was sad.

I would support a resignation form. They would have to kill your faction back to zero and put a 6 month nano that would not allow you to choose a side. You would also have to be naked to do it. (insert joke here)
Story Line
It was 5:45 am as a blurry eyed Caighil wandered through the predawn light seeking redemption. He had not slept that night, or for that matter, many nights. He was about to turn his back on his friends, family and his life. The war was getting to him, and he could no longer support Omni and what they stood for. He wanted peace. He wanted to change allegiances. After years of fighting the Clan, he had come to realize that in the end they were no different then the Omni. Seeking plunder from their foe controlling the poor and needy for their own gains.
He had meet John Graham in The Cup, doing a job handing out Pamphlets. John must have seen Caighil's dissatisfaction and befriended him. Their get togethers continued over the next few months and when John was satisfied that he could trust Caighil, and was sure that he was a candidate he broached the subject with him.
"Caighil, we're friends right?"
"Absolutely, whats on your mind John?"
"I have something to ask you, but I need to know that I can trust you. Can I trust you?"
"Yes. What is it?"
"If you could leave the Omni, would you?"
"You mean go Clan?? Never!!"
"No, not clan."
"What ... are you talking about?"
"Neutral my friend, come join me!"
"It can not be done. How?"
"Science. We sedate the subject, and implant a device that runs a nano to makes you forget your allegiances. Basically we reset you belief systems. This nano runs for 6 months. Ethically speaking we could not make you always stay with us or we are no different from the Clan or the Omni."
"So after 6 months, I can choose to go back or stay."
"That is correct. Any sided armor or items will also be rendered useless as we require you to be naked to complete the process."
"John, I will need to think about this. I will get in touch with you within the week."
"Thank you Caighil, and good luck."
7am
Caighil lay naked on the table with 2 doctors standing over him. They were injecting him with an anesthetic. As he slept, the surgery took place. When the surgery was complete, the Doctor walked to the Computer Terminal and pressed his finger to the screen, hitting the activate button.
"Hostile Nano 'Emerge to Freedom' has been run in Caighil's NCU. All Faction = 0. Side = Neutral."
To be continued
I am not a writer, so excuse the lameness. Just trying to make it fit into the story line.

If he means fiscal Q1, then it could be April, March, July, September, or possibly January >.<
Actually, scratch that. FC's fiscal year begins in May (lifted from the Q1 report). So this year could be before January, could also be by April.
Also, major LOL at the RP crowd coming out of the woodworks to lay down the law. Sic him boys!
thanx for these answers.
just really hope there won't be any delay on engine ; startup, rebalance seem more and more secondary to me compared to engine.
=) Good stuff going on here, I see.

I, along with other people at the Q and A in Oslo saw the lighting effects which included effects which were extra ordinary for a DX9 client. Wish some DX10 games showed some of that. Gimme more, more more
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned.
I have the deepest respect for you, but that comment is just... well, totally off...
You do not support people retreating from the conflict due to the risk of "flip-flopping" between sides, yet the active participants of the conflict clan/omni are free to "flip-flop" whenever they feel like it?
It's probably already done by now, but let me point you towards this link to part of the existing story line :
Source: http://www.anarchy-online.com/wsp/an...&table=CONTENTFirst appearance of neutrals
The first "neutrals" appear when Omni-Tek employees - as well as clan members - abandon their affiliations and settle in non-political zones. Fearing more ICC interventions, OT authorities turn a blind eye to these neutrals.
If anything everyone should be allowed to go neutral whenever they feel like it, if they no longer wish to be part of the conflict between clan/omni.
Switching freely between clan and Omni makes WAY less sense than any clan/omni switching to neutral...
QFT. I feel so slow these days I mean, it doesn't help that I'm an MP, so my selfed runspeed is like high 1700s, low 1800s (this is from memory you nazis), while some other profs run around with 2k+ selfed. I know, it doesn't seem like that big of a diference, but getting a small 200 run buff actually makes me WAY faster.
You downloaded Civ5 and you're here posting instead of playing it? What's wrong with you? D:
jk, I just downloaded it yesterday. Played it for 6 hours straight (and would've gone for more, but it was 2am and figured I should go to bed), but I still had to come check the FWM ;D
Yesh. Very much so. And clipping. Should get us on the better side of 2002's graphics tech.
I'm pretty sure that FC's trying to create 2 versions of the engine is a bad use of a small staff's time. The people who have played this game for years would be willing to update their computer hardware if a newer AO engine required it - I'm confident of that.
