The once casual voice of "Nick" enters through a static consumed screen. This time, his voice is serious.

From my point of view: even as an open-minded messenger, I cannot see the purpose of this. The cultists who follow Mendelevius seem to lack not only experience, but discipline -and- purpose. A viral program such as Mendelevius that is bent on the destruction of humans is not an overly intelligent virus and it is quite doubtful that it will last long. Without a carrier, a virus is more useless than it originally is; without a carrier, the virus lacks purpose. Purpose is the thing that drives not only humans, but even the things with the most simplistic mind. E Pluribus Mendelevius must realise that death of random bluepills shows a weakness within their organization, if anything. You do not pose a threat to anyone besides yourself and innocent people.

Speaking as a messenger: You lack allies as it is, E Pluribus Mendelevius. This act of hostility will bring about unforseen consequences with one of your few allies. You know who we are, and there is no reason to question it over this connection. Your current actions with Nicho and his group of Cypherites have caused great strain on our relationship, and we, not as Nicho and I, but as the sane inhabitants of the Matrix and the true peace keepers, believe that you are a threat. Your organization is weak and preys on the weaker. This will not be tolerated - Defectless is cutting you from his plans. Consequently, the inevitable turn against you and your group will result in a slow and chaotic seperation of views in E Pluribus Mendelevius. They will realise the error of their ways and will move on.

With that said, I would like to end with one more thing. The members of a cult only stay members until they find another group that has more potential power, that has the ability to offer them more than what they have. Defectless has no problem placing his power against your's, Mendelevius. And as not only a messenger, but a witness to Defectless's past actions, I can honestly say that it's best for you to pray that he kills you at first chance. To be left alive when he is against you is so much worse.

My first Vista screenshot, and my most recent screenshot. It's amazingly epic..

I'm not sure how possible this idea would actually be, but me and a couple other people were thinking that it would be a good idea. The general reason I think that this would be a good idea, is because it would reduce the grinding required to switch organizations. The way I look at it, CQs are just items taken from a victim's body that can be thought of as a trophy for each of your kills (this being how I can easily, ICly, explain the CQ system). Said token can be exchanged at a collector for reputation points.

Let's say you killed a Machinist and you wanted Machinist reputation, but were currently a Merv. The collector wouldn't question you killing the Machinist, simply because different organizations tend to wear the same general outfits and/or PvP wear. Even if they didn't, the point that I'm trying to make is that there would be no proof saying that you killed a Machine unless said item/skin/limb/etc went under scanning. Which, honestly, would be a bit much. So you would get your Machinist reputation point and move on.

The general idea is that you can trade CQ points for reputation for any organization. A more indepth explanation would be as following:

From -125 reputation to 0 reputation, it would cost 2 CQ for each reputation point.  (Total CQs needed = 250 CQs)

From 0 reputation to 30 reputation, it would cost 4 CQs for each reputation point.  (120)

From 30 reputation to 50 reputation, it would cost 6 CQs for each reputation point. (120)

From 50 reputation to 120 reputation, it would cost 8 CQs for each reputation point. (560)

From 120 reputation to max reputation, it would cost a whopping 20 CQs for each reputation point. (I think max reputation is either 125 or 127, so, it's either 100 CQs or 140 CQs.)

Total CQs needed for a single organization converserion: 1190, if max rep is 127.

 This would cut down a HELL OF ALOT on the grind needed to get reputation, and it would also allow the people who like PvPing more than missioning to do what they enjoy most. Consequently, there will be the inevitable whiners saying, "I GRINDED LONG AND HARD FOR MY MAXIMUM REPUTATION. I DESERVE IT."----thing is, there is always somebody like that and there always will be. I'm not happy that Mobius Code and HJ beta were given to the public for 40 pieces of bubblegum, and that the vets only have two pieces of vet gear, but, meh. I'll live with it.

 I think that the trade-ins shouldn't be done as the chart above is done. CQ trade-ins could be by 1, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, etc.

At the same time, I think that the visual number of CQs accumilated through out your character's life time should stay in your "details" screen. Trading them in would just remove any value from them. I'm aware that a clothing trade-in, a consumable trade-in, or something else could probably be more loved by players, but this would be better than nothing, right?

Right, well, discuss.

---ALSO! Before any PvPer comes in here bragging about his/her number of CQs in an attempt to hijack this thread, allow me to state that it probably took quite awhile to get your whopping 20,000 CQs. Meaning that you probably couldn't switch orgs every time a zerg appeared, seeing as how your CQs would really start to wear down after awhile.

Why exactly are you looking to buy the Ethereal shoes?

Faked? Pfft. We all know your here.

Well I know who you are on Syntax " /> can't find ya on Recursion though.

I dunno how much these things go for, and I'm not exactly rich on reccy so say...2 mil for 2, I have no idea :\ I don't mind so much if you scam me on reccy " /> I have more on syntax if you want some cash on syntax ^^

p.s. if that's too little just reply and tell me, like I said I have no idea about the prices.

p.p.s. I'm at Mara on reccy spamming the question if you are around, but how in God's name are we supposed to find you? I know you'r jacbenimble on Syntax but trying to find you on reccursion with nothing to go on is tiresome to say the least...

p.p.p.s. (is that right?) If I can say nicely.....how the hell am I supposed to hunt you down on Reccy if I haven't the foggiest where to start. Something that might seem like an obvious link to you might be totally obscure to me, so can I just get a name in a PM or just send a /tell to Cynphony please. I'd like to buy these if I have enough money, but finding you on Reccy is just faffing about that I don't want to do.

I've got all the male shirts. Smith, inevitablity, casualty, hate, love, etc. One of each. As for the cash just shoot me an offer.

(The Smith one will end up costing a bit more than regular shirts due to the fact that, well, it's awesomer.)

No, they dropped buffed UA for the Holiday event. Not all of it's level 1. Which is why it's so special. And the original set of level 10 UA was sold - I found a completely new set of buffed level 1 UA in a subway along with an extra present.

Might I ask who's the winner of the level 10 UA?

I totally sign for #1 and #3, but the redpills and bluepills make me too much cash for me to sign for, otherwise I would. Sorry Psilody.

 As for the editting of props, I don't really think that's much of a big deal. I plan ahead and write up an email labeled *Data disk text* or whatever the prop is and explain it through email after I give the data disk away. It works just as well.

And as far as editting mission descriptions goes, just RP it out. There's an extent to what the devs can do in this game. Just RP some of this stuff out, but I still believe you should be able to drop stuff/leave clues. I'm getting tired of pretending there's a dead body/data frag on the floor because I can't drop it. So lame.

Perhaps the fact that nobody cares what I think will stop you from really even listening to me, but, as so many before me have said before... I THINK THAT you all are over thinking it. What's the deal with that, eh? "He's The One", "He's Windows XP 2000000", he's--who cares?! Assumptions aren't going to help anything, it's just going to waste time which you could spend more 'efficiently' on actually doing some more research.

I'm apaulled at your arrogance, you only take action when a higher in command such as Veil is around. Not before! Before - you just question it, not after! After - you just -THINK- about it. If you would like to find something out, don't wait for Veil, Cryptos, Tylenol, or whatever her name is. Talk to some folk. Perhaps you'll pick out the right Machine that carries some information, it's better to try your odds constantly than to wait for one 50/50 chance.

Selling buffed level 1 under armour, all 6 colors for male and females. Armored and shielded both.

(I got lucky and got one of the sets that spawned randomlly on the map..)

Selling 5 'presents', which were spawned along with the under armour.

500k for each piece of underarmour.

Presents' prices will be debatable along with the anniversery event stuff.

--Also selling 2nd anniversery MALE shirts on SYNTAX for money on RECURSION.---

--Selling male Blue Sky t-shirt and Blue Sky Hat on Recursion for Recursion money--

*Cough* Did we ever decide on what the 'presents' were for?
