Supergroup Name: PAYROLL
Website: PAYROLL (http://www.cohpayroll.com/index.htm)
Leader or Recruiting Officers: Leader- RAGNARoK, Recruiters- Boomer, Susie, Wild Fury & Seth Mason
Preferred Method of contact: PM or post Here
Group Description: PAYROLL is a group made up of the most cunning, intuitive of Super Powered Wetwork Mercenaries you have ever seen. We walk the fine line between Good and Bad.
And we've been hired... We'll be doing Black-Ops for the U.N. and United States Government. Our missions involve dealing with hostile Super Powered terrorist cells, like the 5th column or any other similar cells, stopping them before they become a threat to the United States National Security and any other country under the U.N., doing this in the shadows of the Geneva Convention Laws with Plausible Deniability from our Employers.
Seth: "Dude... I've been bumped up to a recruiter now??" O_o

*Gives Starcrosser the look* So why don't YOU have a character in Payroll? It's not like you don't know plenty about it...

"For those who haven't heard. I plan on being on tonight 04-26-2005 at Midnight Mountain Time on Virtue Server in Kings Row to Promote my current Memebers to Field Commander. Then in turn we'll begin to recruit those of equal levels to each of our own, meaning that we will have team members of the same level per Field Commander on PAYROLL to team up with. That way we can get some levels raised. It's quicker to gain levels as a team than solo."
"I hope those we've missed in this thread will meet with me as well to get recruited."

"But you look very good in that. Nice job on the costume as well and the look in the eyes are to die for, your a hotty what's to worry about?"

"But you look very good in that. Nice job on the costume as well and the look in the eyes are to die for, your a hotty what's to worry about?" Other than that it's a horrible and mangled photo, thanks. I really wanted to join in the awesome geekness, but that's all i could manage before the deadline. I ought to do a better one sometime. Man, i was hoping that would be lost in the archives somewhere and wouldn't come back... 0_o*
Hmmm.... If I talk him into taking it down, will you join? Uhh... well, it doesn't take blackmail for that, but sure... :notme:
RAGNARöK
04-26-2005, 06:13 PM
"Nah, Just say the word and I'll take it down. We aren't blackmailing her into joining PAYROLL. I'd rather have her join on good faith. I still think you look prettier than you realize in that picture and in general, Honestly."

You certainly don't have to - it just might not be the most practical intro for your team, i don't suppose... :notme: And, err... thank you... i'm not sure i *agree*, but thank you...
I certainly wouldn't MIND joining payroll. I've been too shy to ask to join up until now.

Actually, how do you feel about broadsword scrappers? I've got a rather long-time char who might fit the mercenaryness. Unless you've got too many scrappers, or don't think broadsword can... hack it... with the big guns. ;)

Code Name: (none)
Real Name: Gage Camber
Age: 32, last I checked
Gender: Male
Origin: Natural
Archetype: Scrapper
Powerset: Broadsword/Dark Armor
Security Level: Starting over on Virtue
Misc Skills: Melee combat expertise. Formal swordsmanship in training various styles, decent marksmanship, talented in street fighting. Knowledge in various technologies that don’t apply to this world. Basic first aid, fairly good outdoor-survival experience. (Is re-learning vehicle and computer operations, and is otherwise adapting to a new culture.)
Other Abilities (RP):
His right eye is mechanical and has several forms of enhanced vision (target tracking, scanning, nightvision, telescopic, can sense energy and magic) – causes his vision to be slightly off, but he has adjusted to it.
Kinetic Spatial Awareness – latent ability to sense objects in space around him, movement and trajectory, etc. (If two people toss a ball back and forth behind him, he can tell where the ball is, how close to him, and which way it’s going.) Not highly developed as of yet, but is probably the reason he has survived this long in the first place.
Summary of History:
Raised by foster parents in a culture unaccepting of outsiders and cut off from his hopes of becoming an scholar, Gage suffered the loss of a loved one in his late teenage years that left him embittered and angry. Leaving home with few plans, he used the skills he’d been forced to learn in the military to hire himself out as a bodyguard and later a mercenary. His anger and self-hatred drove him farther and farther away from anything he cared about, and he ended up on the edges of civilization in a run-down town, working salvage in the wasteland by day and fighting in bloody gladiatorial battles by night. In a last ditch effort to remove himself from this destructive lifestyle, he traveled back to a major city on the coast and tried to find more productive work. Here, after getting involved with some risky figures and some portal technology, he ended up stranded in another universe – smack in the middle of the city called Paragon. Trying to look at his situation as an opportunity, Gage has been attempting to hire himself out as a bodyguard and enforcer again while attempting to adjust to a very different culture and a very strange world.
[By most consideration, Gage ought to be a Super Reflexes scrapper, or even Invul, but I’ve got a few of those and want something a bit different. If the Dark Armor doesn’t work out, I can do Regeneration. DA I’d be roleplaying as an energy that he channels through the sword, an inherited ability – not magic –which may be a bit of a new development for him.]

WOW, and I don't mean the game. My lowering the pixils worked wonders. I played a little bit last night, teleporting around in Lag city Atlas Park with no ill affects. I even fiddled with the Costume and Map functions that will normally freeze my computer for about... I actually don't know how long, I usually reset my computer after 10 minutes of waiting. But it works now...well until it want's to drop me like a bad habit again.
I'm at my job right now, but I had to share the funniest thing with you all. I work at a campus that teaches student to work with Cisco, Networking and Instalations type stuff and they were using a line toners that sound exactly like a Glowy in a room that I was strolling by. I actually paused to listen for it's location and laught when I realized what I was doing...I'm going through much withdrawls, but I'll be on tonight or try to be.

Glad to hear the resolution made that much difference, if i run into troubles i may have to try that. TPing around Atlas with no lag..... err, well, no trouble. nice.

Code Name: MDS 0087
Real Name: Thomas Rainer (MDS serial number 0087)
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Origin: Mutation
Archetype: Blaster
Powerset: Assault Rifle/ Energy Manipulation
Security Level: 6
Misc Skills: Martial arts, Expert Marksman, Military Ettiquette, Offensive Driving, Water Swim Safety instructor. Military small unit tactics (holds the rank of Corporal in the United States Marine Corps) Holds a Doctorate in Robotic Engineering (the power armor was developed by the MDS themselves
Other Abilities (RP): Natural Low light vision, heightened reflexes and strength
While wearing his Powered armor, also thermographic and telescopic vision modes.
Physical Description: The best description would be "Poster Child for the Aryan Nation" Blonde Hair, Blue Eyes, 6'2" and a very athletic build. I will post a screenshot of him out of his armor soon.
Summary of History:
Brief Background:
((((CLASSIFIED))))The MDS project was started towards the end of World War 2, after research conficscated from the Auschwitz-Birkenau prison camp showed that Nazi germany was deep into the development of augmented humans <see Ubermench file> mainly through the attempt at transplantation of animal organs and limbs.
The first M.D.S. prototype super soldiers were created in 1957, using the methods described in the German researchers notes, None survived. The main cause of death was tissue rejection.
The project was put on hold indefinately.
In 1962, Project Human Genome was commencing under the auspices of the US Army, alongside of development of dramatic Gene splicing technologies, and The first series of Successful MDS (Most Dangerous Soldiers) was created. Using forced growth techniques these MDS (nicknamed Docs) were grown and trained just in time to be able to participate in the Viet Nam Conflict.
These soldiers were genetically modified to be "on the edge" with an overproductive adrenal system, to make their reactions faster, and their bodies able to withstand stresses that would incapacitate a normal human. The vast majority of them were traind to operate as individual operatives, with the main emphasis on survival. Much of their training was based around the "predator/prey" relationship.
Unfortunaly due to a lack of field testing, many of these original MDS were mentally unstable psychopaths, often killing their own troops, and collecting grisly trophies. On September 7 1969, general order WC 101 was issued, calling for the extermination of all active MDS units. The majority of these terminations were carried out via napalm strikes and carpet bombing. The MDS project was again mothballed, again indefinatly.
In 1984, new research on behavior patterns in animals caused the MDS project to be brought again out of mothballs. This time, instead of forced growth soldiers, they would perform all of the manipulations prior to birth, and allow for normal physical development. Using research developed from studying wolves and other pack animals, the individual MDS series soldiers were given a definate feeling of being part of a pack, and were trained to work well with a unit. Instead of the focus being placed on the individual, the group was all.
The result is a Soldier fanatcally loyal to his team. Included with the psychological aspect, extensive physical and mental strength building excersises were also employed.
Along with the MDS research going on, an event in the samll town of Roswell New Mexico brought an unexpected benefit to the program. On July 12, 1947 Two united States Army Air force pilots reported finding a crashed "flying disk". This event was quickly covered up, and the contents were moved to a secret facility in Nevada. Included in the wreckage was several suits that appeared to be full environment body armor, and a few devices that were later determined to be weaopns systems. The members of the MDS program have worked extensively with the armor and also the integral weapons systems.
On May 12, 2005 general order PC-17534 was enacted, to send A single MDS to Paragon City for an extended field trial. After a few weeks of operation, MDS 0087 (aka Thomas Rainer) was contacted by his superiors to request entry to a sponsored unit working in the area known only as PAYROLL, as part of the field trials would be to see how the MDS worked with other personell.
((((CLASSIFIED))))
Official personal information regarding Thomas Rainer is quite different, his Hero Registration stated he developed the power armor on his own, and his doctorate in robotic engineering certainly backs up that information. Many of his physical abilities are passed off as a result of his near obsessive physical training regimen.
His official records also state he is an Emancipated Orphan, no longer required by the state to live with foster families, nor to have a family of his own.

I'm new in town and i wanted to stop by and say hello b/c i've heard that our to teams have similar concepts, mine being more diplomatic and yours being more strike force. before i introduce my team i thought i might say i remember this team when it first started pre-beta, i was Mr. E back then and i believe the leader was Goldstar, anyway, good luck. i was also wondering if you would want to be allies seeing that our teams are so similar. what is my team? well:
Supergroup Name: the World Defense Initiative (WDI)
Website (if any): World Defense Initiative (http://www.freewebs.com/worlddefenseinitiative/)
Leader or Recruiting Officers: Captain Spain
Preferred Method of contact: Our preferred method of contact is simply by going to our forums if you just want to hang out with us, going to the Visitor‘s Center. Other than that however, meeting up with us in-game works as well as e-mailing us at tjowas@yahoo.com.
Guild Description: The official story on us is: The WDI was founded as the UN's response to the ever growing terror threat and the increase in inhumane metahuman activity. The WDI answers formostly to the UN and secondarily to the countries it represents. Every member of its troupe is from a different country, and that memeber is the country's chosen representitive. He or she exemplifies the behavior of that country and of the UN, but his or her actions are not completley reflective of the country's nor the UN's methods. The Headquarters for the WDI is in an undisclosed location in Antartica where it meets and disscusses world events as well as plans missions and raids. It is the official UN Metahuman Peacekeeping Corps.
--------------------------------------------

Woo, there's LIFE! mahah.
Is there a current roster anywhere, other than the bios on the site? i'm not sure all the - holy hot sweet cherry pie i didn't send the bio that was about a month ago friggin' 8 bit sonnova harpseal... >_<
the_starcrosser
06-16-2005, 08:56 PM
Well, seth might be "gettin' some" from Bella if by "gettin' some" you mean flying lead...
You DO know your bio made it up on the site, yes?
Near as I can tell, the Payroll Roster looks something like this:
Ragnarok (Leader, played by RAGNARoK)
Seth Mason (played by Nyx)
Gage Camber (played by the_starcrosser)
Boomer (played by Elemento)
Wild Fury and Susie I haven't heard anything about, nor do I know who their players are... Not sure what the status is on Sose (played by ND)
There are also a handful of alts involved... My main, Nyx, is actually Ragnarok's wife, and my alt Lord Mischief/Loki is Rag's creator/father. Neither of them is actually a member of the team, though, despite their occassional involvement.
There are also NPCs you might run across in RPs, like Jake, Belladonna (Rag has her as an alt), Kevin/Armageddon, etc.
Well, seth might be "gettin' some" from Bella if by "gettin' some" you mean flying lead...
This is very true... if that's the case, he's aaaaaaalllll hers...

well Saeel was in Payroll for a very short time and then disappeared for a long time but we are back now, Saeel, Shadowflight and now Redcat. Saeel is still going to be little seen, been enjoying Redcat the last couple of nights and will probably be on her again tonight she is now lvl 7 and working in the hollows and so far she hasn't burned everything down. Setting her up as someone not fully in control of her powers hence a lot of aoe attacks. She's even had her kit-kat covered in fire resistant cloth and fastened to the shoulder of her vest.

The program I use is at www.daz3d.com it is a beta program still but is free for the program itsefl and does come with some content. That site also has a freebie section for items that can be used in the program. There are also a number of other sites that carry freebies that should be able to work in DAZ|Studio. Though you have to watch what freebies you pick up some of them require other products that you have to buy. www.poserpros.com www.renderosity.com and www.runtimedna.com along with www.daz3d.com are the four sites I usually buy from and pick up freebies from.

Well one thing that goes into them is lots of money buying all the bits and pieces to put together to make the picture you have in your head and then lots of time getting everything just where you want it, if you don't have preset poses. If you do have presets then time on posing might not take as long if you have some thing close to what you want.

Rippin' someone's head off
No human contact
And if you interact
Your life is on contract
Your best bet is to stay away mother****er

Lettin' **** slip
Or you'll be leavin with a fat lip
Its all about the he says she says bull****

Feelin' like a freight train
First one to complain
Leaves with a blood stain

Into the killing zone
Prepared to die
Fearful technology
Faceless mercenary
Merchant of war
With no conscience
Darkness all you see
Dying hard your believe
Mercenary...
Mercenary...
Purchased soul
To the highest price
No thoughts of anguish
Cheapness of life
Freelance veteran
Ask no forgiveness
No tears, no regrets
Mission completed
Mercenary...
Mercenary...
Forget the past - For all you see
Self-created destiny
No innocence - The world bleeds
Now march onward - Mercenary

Pay to kill, die to lose
Hunted, hunter which you are
Diablo come again
To make trophies out of man
Lose you skin, lose you skull
One by one the sack is full
in the heat dehydrate
Know which breath will be your last
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
You've got to kill to stay alive
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
You've got to kill to stay alive
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Human heart, human mind
Intellect intertwined
Focus sharp in the night
Watch the jungle burning bright
Toe to toe throw the line
Everyone's caught hand tied
Iron will Iron fist
How could it have come to this?
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
You've got to kill to stay alive
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
You've got to kill to stay alive
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Show them no fear, show them no pain
Probably not the best one lol.

"Nyx gave me a character theme song, it from a christian rock band called Skillet, but ya know, the song fits my character pretty good if you ever read his full story and not just the background on the website. The song has a nice beat, almost heavy metal sounding but clean.You'll also notice that the mediaplayer will say REST but playing INVINCIBLE because who ever made the link messed up on placing it on the right title on the sample that I got this song from. The only difference in this song is, RAGNARöK isn't dead. that's the only thing that doesn't go with him"

I'm indestructible
It's my destiny
I, I'm invincible
I'm unshakeable

You know you just can't kill a man when he's dead
You know the spirit survives (invincible)
You can't stop the advance of the Kingdom to come
You know the truth is alive (invincible)
To be invincible
Is unattainable
Without sacrifice
Feel, feel the birth inside
The life that cannot die
Are you invincible

as far as theme songs go, not all of my characters have one, i think the closest thing MDS 0087 would have would be "Ride of the Valkeries" by Wagner
Mikoto Night on Bald Mountain/Ave Maria
Agent Q Down with the sickness by Disturbed
and last of all Akamaz - Limp Bizkit "Break Stuff"

oh, and I say we definately go with a bolt thrower song... it takes a double tough death metal band to have a chick as the bassist. (that whole a woman seems to have to work twice as hard for half the credit thing.... )
also i found the "perfect" song for us... here it is...
Infiltrator by Bolt Thrower
Strike first strike
Accurate speed
Strength of surprise
Covert need
One mad minute
Nothing left alive
Furtive action
Far from allies
Taste cold steel
Fast and quiet
Face the fear
Within the eyes
Unsurpassed
Chosen elite
Transformation
From defeat
Stealth – the myth endures
Secretive – disciples of war
Disciples of war
Sealed your fate
Condemned by hate
Infiltrate... infiltrate
Now discovered
Far too late
Mind displaced
Infiltrate

Heck I favor 70's-80's rock like Ledzepplin, Queen, Ozzy, MeatLoaf, Metallica,and I like some of the 90's as well. But I'm mostly old school if anything. I'm just dig'n the death metal is all. I'm into new things as well. Better Death Metal than say RAP....*quivers* Everyone has their limits, RAP is mine. I don't like any songs with very limited vocabulary, Death Metal may growl when they sing but at least they form real words, unlike Raps ebonics of 'Gat, DAWG, G'funk Homie' n'stuff, let alone their abiltiy to make women look like yesterdays meat and refer them as biotches which is tasteless. Then after they form some sort of sentence they ask an actual understandable question that ya have no answer too, like, 'Ya know what I'm saying Holmes?' and ya can't help but say. 'Huh?' :huh: Believe me when I say, Elemento, you have so much good taste, that you can open up your own restaurant."

Now the next big thing to get is items to use in D|S www.daz3d.com has a freebies section, www.renderosity.com has a very large freebies section, problem with some freebies is that they are addons for items you have to buy. Another program to make your own 3d objects is wings3d at www.wings3d.com Daz has some tutorials for playing with Wings3d the tutorials are a little out of date been a few newer versions of wings3d come out. Those are some good places to start. Oh if you do get D|S while at Daz3d be very sure to get M3/V3/A3 Micheal version 3, Victoria verison 3 and Aiko version 3 They are all free right now and are the main figures used for alot of things.

I'd like to put comic windows of our toons in action from the game or drawn out on each page as well so that it's enjoyable to view all the pages like a comic book so I can eliminate the feeling of it being daunting. I only ordered for a total of 5 pages, but if my budget permits it, I'll be adding more to it. I was actually thinking of trying to get a small PAYROLL Members Only forum for our dark plans on our enemies. Just another brainstorming ideas to add to the fun of the game.

Maybe you should just Defrag your computer, it worked wonders for me and I also set my monitor under options in CoH's for the game to the minimum screen setting of either 640x480 or 800x600 pixels and adjusted my window setting in the CoH options during game to my Chat, Nav windows etc etc to fit in the whole screen because it'll crowd your screen if you don't adjust the window capacity in the options menu. I'd try that before reformatting and losing a lot of stuff you might not want lost "Forever". Just an idea for you...

"I've been playing with one of my new powers. I invested in the Group Teleporter Power. A contact of mine was helping me figure out the range of the Group Teleporter and how close my team mates need to be. It would seem the idea of teleporting all my crew to one spot from their previous location isn't how it works though it would be nice to see a advanced Teleport Friend for a mass group instead of individuals would be great. You actually need to be within 30' radius of my person or be left behind. I wouldn't recommend the idea of teleporting in the air without hover; lag could be an issue resulting in a serious mix of experiences with gravity, the pavement and possible mobs in the area to polish you off. I speak from experience. I’ll just say, it sucks, even more so in Dark Astoria. The Bonus I've learned with this power is the abiltiy to unroot my team mates from hold spells or slowed powers like trops or earth mud attacks from CoT and I have yet used it for mass retreats for an over powering mob but I can see the possibilities."

Those of you whom I worked long and hard with story lines for our characters and long saga's with RAGNARöK as well as some fine pieces of art saved on my computer will have a good chance of being a total loss and I hope to be able to reestablish copies from you all who helped me collect these items to begin with. The Reason for this is that it looks as though I might have to do a low level format on my hard drive. But I'm currently looking into other methods that might prevent me from having to do that. I have several contacts in my home town who are currently working on a method to deal with this slight delay of mine and I’m hoping one of them comes up with something useful to fix this issue. I’ve attempted to use my Windows XP Disc but it won’t even allow me to boot from my CD-Rom nor would it recognize the disc to restore my System32 file. I guess my old workhorse finally limped it's last with a little help from a virus rather than old age. I mainly wanted to let you know my current predicament for my absence and just to tell you all to be careful.

"HAH!!! STILL KICK'N!!!"
I'm back! I finally got this old goat kick'n again. Of course I'm down to 512RAM, for some reason my third stick didn't work anymore. And I did another virus scan and now some how, I don't have a virus on my computer, don’t ask me how cause I'm no wiz on computers. Most likely never had a virus and my third stick of RAM could've been the culprit of my troubles.
"I'll be on this weekend", 'click' ,"to do some catch'n up." :guntoot:
Gonna be on Monday? ;) I've finally got a Nyx on Viiiiiiirtue.....
Yes, got a copy of the game now... look for .Nyx
Haven't transfered Mischief or Seth over yet though.
Also, Lord Mischief and Seth Mason have been started over again on Virtue... and Mischief's daughter Einmyria... so take your pick. ;)

SWEEEET! Right on. I'll take one of each. I'm gonna try to get on tonight. Just not sure when exactly, gonna push for maybe 9pm MT. but I'm might get on earlier, who knows. Might depend on how hard I worked today, been busy deal'n with getting the school prepped for Girls IT night Thursday. Gonna have over 400+ little teenyboppers girls running around, which reminds me to memorize the 2nd floor men’s restrooms combination code, it's gonna be the only one available to the guys without them rushing in and get'n a surprise in their young lives. :yoy: So with that I'll be working from 7am-11pm Thursday prepping and 7am-6pm or 11pm Friday to replace all the furnishing. If I get no rest, I'm gonna be a grumpy Merc come Saturday. O_o But I'll definitely go look'n for your toons to get them into the grove of PAYROLL and beginning our social circles again. :cool:

LMAO...teacup....Chronicles of Riddick, I so own that movie and pitchblack, I love how after he introduces his teacup into that guys heart, he then picks up a spam key can-opener and places it onto the same rock he had his teacup on and they finally decided that Riddick's version of the world was far more dangerous than theirs.

I'm looking into building a base for PAYROLL, I'm not exactly sure if they finally got around to allowing hero groups building bases due to me not being able to get my computer stabilized again. I believe I have issues with my hard drive and need to purchase a new one before I lose all my data on my old one, and that's a lot of hard work that Nyx and myself have achieved on storylines of our toons as well as some wonderful art work I’d dread to lose. I’ve been doing bounty hunting in Sirens Calling and making a rep, when my computer wasn’t freezing after every boot up, and figured to get the ball rolling once I get my computer up and running again. I know we haven’t been getting together as a super group to maintain organization or doing raids due to the enjoyment of soloing, having a real life or the need to play others toons, which is cool; I too have another toon that all other fellow beta testers know as GAMMA-MAN on Justice server. But speaking of real life, I’ll be getting married come March 4th of 2006. Yeah, just around the corner. It’ll be at the Landmark in Mesa, Arizona at 6pm if anyone is in town. I doubt anyone will be. But I thought it’ll be cool to toss that out to all my closest online friends. The members of PAYROLL and other affiliated teams I’ve had the pleasure to be a part of. I’ll keep in touch on my status with my computer and Real life.

I wish you the best. Right now, my wife is dealing with her third bout with her cancer.
She was admitted Wednesday finally into a hospital. We still don't know how severe this time around. Doctors are first treating her pulmonary hypertension.
Thanksgiving for us was just another day. We didn't do anything out of the ordinary. Even Christmas looks like a bummer for us. We can't decorate cause we just don't have the energy. So the holidays are just normal days for us.
Glad to see you're still alive though. LOL
Btw. You never did get around to update my files on your website.

I wish you and your wife best of health and I hope she pulls through her battle. I hope your next holiday season is good and festive, even if mildly, but festive none the less. I'm sure your love for each other will keeps you both strong. Don't let this moment of struggle keep you down. Negativity is a down fall that you can’t afford to have washed over you. ‘Words Have Power’ so keep a positive outlook, even smallest bit counts. With what you both have been through I know it’s been tough to endure, but you’ll be amazed how much better you feel when you don’t let this beat you. Your love needs you to be strong for her because I’m being strong for you both. I wish you both well and when things get tough and look grim, honestly and repetitively tell yourself, “Our Life WILL Get Better” because words have power. :)
P.S. when I get my computer going, I'll be sure to remeber to update the website *Tells self* "Money flows easily into my Life." :D

Okay glad to see you're comin back. Hope your wedding has gone great so far.:)
Kept up the base with Ryder only as no one else has been on their characters in this SG.
Had a lot of thoughts along the way of shoving it all and then had an idea if I could change the name but that would entail begging the GMs to do that.
Was going to make it the Drunken Gargoyle.:)
Prestige is needed to build this up though and you're going to have to re-earn your stripes getting your share in. You, Ryder, and I are the only ones I have allowed to modify base but with lack of prestige, I only managed to get the necessary rooms.
Ryder and I are just sitting with lots of salvage but can't convert anything as of yet.
Meanwhile I got an old friend last night to join us and like you has been away a long time. His character is Phat Ninja and he plays nights.
It is not easy getting new recruits into the SG. One way to gather prestige without outleveling oneself is to exemplar to a lower level. I think this might work.
I have heard something about higher levels prestige farming but don't know the details how that works.
Exemplaring to TFs is another way to earn prestige I think.
The rooms are there. We need 305,000 prestige yet just to get us the generator and mainframe. These are the first objects we're shooting for as they operate everything else.

Huzzah! Glad you're up and running again! :D
>_> I've been mostly out of game for a little while (aside from the weekly SGI happy funtime), but i'll get my wussy scrapper butt back in gear. Especially with some backup from a certain fancypants flamer. :3
*infiltrates the base* Ah good Ragnarok is back. (*hugs* Hiya!)

"It's nice to see everyone out and about. Now that I have everyones full attention, I want to personally thank Boomer and Agni's for running things while I was away. I hope my return will stir things up a bit. I'd like to see Boomer's & Agni's hard work on the base pay off. So to help these two gentlemen out as well as myself, I would like to see more SG involvement. Now, I know RL is far more important than CoH which is perfectly justifiable and some of you are wondrous at maintaining multiple SG which is staggering to me. I’m not demanding anything from any of you. I just would be most disappointed to see such hard work that Boomer and Agni’s put into the base go to waste. Well, I’ll C’ya all about. I’m gonna gather some missions, because, I’d like to see a generator in our base."
"Dismiss."

Well, I’m sorry to inform all the members on the PAYROLL that I had to close my www.cohpayroll.com website account due to budget, it may still be operational until the paid time runs out. I currently just purchased a home and need the extra cash to keep the priority bills paid. It was either that or close my CoH account which I will NOT do. Once I get a better paying job, I’ll try to reactivate that account and hopefully get my other old computer running that has all the website data files that allowed me to create it. It’s been out of commission hence why I haven’t updated the site in a couple of years. I’m still an active player CoH and will remain that way until the internet is no more. So don’t freak out.

No biggie for now. Information hasn't been updated in some time.
If for important information, you'd still want to communicate you can always post at my site.
It would be disastrous if the other thing occurred. You know how hard it's been just to keep KoP from going under.

I'll keep that in mind Elemento for sure and will informed the others as well about the use of your site. Yeah, the new members I brought in, Palo Verde Pummeler and Aden have been active in SG mode to keep it going. These are two of my Real Life gaming buddies that I introduced to CoH. They are having a blast so expect tons of Prestige flowing your way. :cool:
