I said I would never do this, but, it's now pointless to play this game, 90% of all my friends have left and they were the real reason why I kept playin, not for content, not for story, not for pvp, for the community. But like I said that's really all in the past and I think it's time for me to move on. This game has had a huge infulence on my life over the past 4 years, I've had my ups, downs, took a few vacations to get my life right in rl, but now I think that MxO has nothing more to really offer me, plus, all the negativity on these boards really brings me down, and I said I would never quit this game, but there is alot more better things I can do with my time and money then playing a game that wont go anywhere ever, So I'm canceling my sub today and I wont be jacking back in. Which I'm sure will make a few people happy, including myself... If this game ever does come back from the grave, I will return, but I don't see that happening anytime soon, so I'll take my leave for now, I wish you all the best of luck, I wish MxO a better future, like I always have, and one more thing... No, no one can have my stuff... 4 years and still sexy, 4 years and I've grown alot, 4 years to kill mxo, yet it's still runnin, keep it alive everyone, don't give up, and this isn't me quiting or giving up, I just have alot going on in rl to worry about a game, it's just one less thing to think about. Take care everyone, I wish you all the best of luck in bringin this game back from the grave.

The place: The Arcitect's white room The time: 0600 AT The Arcitect: Agent Gray... ...... The Arcitect: Agent Gray, report in. Agent Gray: Sir, sorry for the delay. The Arcitect: It's no problem, I just wanted to invite you to the party, it seems zion has broken the truce and it's now time for us to whipe them all out. Agent Gray: Wouldn't Agent Pace be more suitable for this, sir? The Arcitect: Nonsense Gray, you're just the man for the job. I need you to rally the operatives and form a game plan, we are going to erase the zion infulence from the simulation once and for all! Agent Gray: Yes sir, Agent Gray out. *Comlink closes* The place: Creston Heights The time: 0630 AT Agent Gray: Operative, you have been selected as one of our best, and we need you to help destroy zion. Can the system count on you to do so with efficency and total flawlessness? Skull086: I will not let the system down sir. You can count on me to bring zion to it's knees. Agent Gray: Good, I knew we could count on you, Mr Haywood, but first we will need you to come party with us, um, The Arcitect himself has invited you to, ehh, in his own words "Come shake that booty up in the sky with the real pimps of the matrix." I will teleport you there if need be? Skull086: Agent Gray, you and I both know I can get to the party by myself, what do you think, I don't know that sploit? haha really, you agents kill me with laughter. Agent Gray: Of course, operative, will you be heading there now? Skull086: Don't go deleting yourself over it Gray, and yea I will be heading there now, um, you might wanna stand back. /ACTOWN2 *BOOOOM!!!* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is just for the LULz so don't take it seriously people omg. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First Zion critical mission. First objective: Find out if the truce is really broken and fast. Second objective: Once found out, run around scared like a chicken with his head cut off. Third objective: Shut down all computers with information on the zion mainframe because the machines will want that information and we must'nt let em have it! Fourth objective: Scream out For Zion, Or For Neo if you are EPN and then run to the nearest Richland Hardline cause agents spawn on you everywhere else. First Merv critical Mission. First objective: head over to club hel for the party the merv is holding cause the truce just died. Second objective: Party with sexy bondage bishes and drink alot, and eat merv cake untill everyone passes out. Third Objective: Collect a pay check for being such hardworking partiers. First Machine critical mission. First objective: Track down all zionite computer systems and take any and all information from them and upload it to the machine database. Second Objective: Kill all enemay noobs you see trying hard to escape but can't hyperjump inside buildings so they keep hitting the ceilling and are easy targets. Third Objective: tap the zion database and steal the codes that are required to enter the city of zion. Fourth objective: Forward all information to the machine database where it will be collected and analyized, then we will send the information to one of our skilled operatives that will enter zion itself and pretty much destroy it from the inside out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Skull086 Stands at mara c, disagreeing with people at random, and owning everyone that flags up and tries to attack* Skull086: Listen guys, I'm kinda busy, waiting for orders from the boss and all, so umm could you kindly **** OFF?

Skull086: Oh hey Gray, now, you and I both know I'm always ready to go kill some noobs. Send the codes to my operator and I'll head into the city of zion and take it down in no time. Agent Gray: Very well, I will do as you ask operative, however, I must ask, how will you destroy zion? Skull086: I will sploit, how else? You forget, Agent, I used to be a general in the zion command, It wont be very hard to get in, set a bunch of bombs all over the place and blow em all up, then I'll leave a hole in the door for your sentinals to take care of the rest of the noobs, sound fair? Use their zion magic ageinst them, it'll be a piece of cake. Agent Gray: Good plan operative, the system is counting on you, and we will welcome your safe return. Skull086: Alright Gray, I'll catch ya later, tell pace I said hi for me will ya! /jacksoutthroughtehhl Agent Gray: Will do... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Skull086 successfully destroys old zion and returns to a huge welcome back party in his honour. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- That's all I got for the chapter the truce broke, look for more later on down the road!

I'm going to try to do something I haven't for awhile, I'm going to try through this thread to get through to SOE, others can help me if they like but my words will more or less have the most impact in this thread. I've come to the conclusion that MxO is indeed being killed off, Rarebit's new approch is the cause. I'm not saying rare is to blame for this, I'm simply saying that I think this new approch of his is alittle off. As I have stated in another thread, I feel like MxO, which has been my 1 and only online game for 2 years is losing my intrest. I mean, really, why did you kill off live events in a game where they mean so much to the community?! I mean it was something to look forward to, and while we waited for one to happen, we pvped, rped, dueled or just stood around, oh and farming lol don't forget farming. I mean I cannot understand why SOE wants this game dead, it's a great game, and it's still got a story to unfold, mind you, lately, the story has been garbage, no offense to whomever is writing it, but it's not very fun. I remember back in the day when we would wait around for random things to happen, new threats to the simulation to come out and just attack people, I remember when the live events were so awsome you could bearly hold yourself back when they were over. Now adays however, you give us content with a story that doesn't even back up the content. You give us a game where there is 1% interaction with the community and 99% npc related farming. Imho this is not what you should be doing to this game, you are treating mxo, just like you always have, as a second hand game and now you treat it as it's not even worth selling this game for 10 bucks! I'm sorry, just alittle frustraited. I remember when this game had a certain element to it, a certain vibe, that no other game could even come close to, but lately that vibe has nearly gone completely, and I myself am so close to hitting the unsubscribe button... I don't want to do this, but unless something is done, unless at least something intresting happends inside of the matrix, I will have to. If you really, really cannot do live events anymore, for whatever reason, be it because you have other work to do, then why not let the players do their own live events, with the story charactors? Devs, I'm giving you a chance to help this game, do something for it, I understand everything needs to be approved cause it is your job but might I suggest looking to the community to hold dev powers from now on, Give veteran players that know the story, that know how to rp good, give them the LE charactors and let us make our own story. Give these players the ability to run live events and make npcs outa thin air, I mean what could go wrong? Most of us here love this game, and we don't want to see it die, so why not let us help? We play this game for the interaction, not for the bs content that isn't even helpful in pvp. We play this for the real story the unfolding of the Matrix story, not some (no offense) halfa$$ed writen story that someone just wrote down once and didn't even really think it through. Give these chosen players the ability to reward the community through there own live events. Most of us, even myself when I'm not working would be willing to do this for this game. We would be willing to help this game and you wont give us the oppertunity. Think this through SOE, it could help this game in the long run, making players that love the game into devs that pay you to do the job you wont pay others to do seems like a pretty good offer. And unless I see some kinda response to my offer, some kinda, "we will think about it and get back to you" kinda comment, I will leave this game. And I'm sorry but this isn't really even alittle fun anymore, it's a waste of time unless something is done, it's a waste of my time to just farm random content and watch a story that isn't even remotely intresting unfold... I, YOUR VALUED CUSTOMER, DEMAND YOU TAKE THESE WORDS TO HEART! Because if you don't, if you just ignore me like you have been doing for 3 years!!!! I will take my hard earned money elsewhere! And no, not to any SOE games, you don't value us as customers, you value us as suckers and I'm sick of it, give us what we want, a game where we are the people and we have some pull in where this game goes, otherwise, it wont just be me leaving, you wont have anyone playing this worthless shell you have left us to walk aimlessly in... And I am through.

Maybe I missed something somewhere but I did the first two machine missions and umm, well all Agent Gray tells me at the end is to go hunt down and kill a Lupine in Northwest Downtown. Now maybe it's just me, but aren't the machines supposed to be alittle more direct then somewhere in northwest downtown? I mean in the last set of missions at least coords were given, but this time all I get is somewhere in the northwest part of downtown. Anyone found this lupine yet? lol I looked all over creston and found nothing.

So yea, we got luggables for the old past events right? Well I was thinking we could add maybe 5 more to the game. 1. Broken Cheat Code Vial. Item gives you the effects of the cheat codes that anome and his goons had, only it's a broken one with nothing in it so the effects aren't permanent. Effects: Gives Green Code eyes that drip down. Buffs Ballistic, Melee Resistance 36% MA,Ballistic,Viral Accuracy 5% Now we all know that it's possible for a luggable to give you a custom built ability, such as the smith virus infector move. So... 2. Lupine's Curse. This item I think would be pretty sweet, what it would basicaly do is give you lupine abilities, aswell as change you into a lupine. In adition to the lupine abilities and changing you into a lupine it would also give you Thrown, ballistic, Melee Damage 5% And movement Speed of 10% Also since lupines are pretty good jumpers, I think adding 10pts to jump and hyper jump would also be cool. Since I don't really think that the oracle is still alive or coming back, I think adding the smith virus back to the game would be cool. Only thing is, you cannot change others into smith and all this luggable would do is give you fire not change you into a agent. 3.Fragmented Smith Virus. Effects: Just the fire virus Buffs, 5% damage to everything and it enrages you. This next one I'm not sure would be cool or not but I thought, well why not? 4. Blue Pill. This item is just what it says, a Blue pill, you pick it up and it turns your RSI into a blue pill one. Effects. Changes your RSI into a random blue pill, changes your lvl to 1 and changes your name to blue pill. Downgrades Movement speed 10% Disables all abilities. Only changes back once someone else picks up the luggable or you log out. This one I think would be kinda cool, due to it's matrix feel, it would basically be a phone, desk phone or cell phone that you can drop on the ground and pick up and basically, create a new hl where ever you drop it, so you can teleport around to different hls, you cannot teleport to the luggable or keep it once you do teleport, but you can change your abilities with it and jack out faster with it from anywhere. 5. Portable HL. Effects, just gives you a white glow around your rsi. no buffs. And that's all I got, tell meh what ya think or if this is bad or good, either way, I still love you all.

Alright, I gotta say this cause for one, I own the machine White hallways Key on Recursion, I haven't used this key in about 4 or 5 months due to the fact that it's old content, however, I love the pills that the Combat Sim drops in there. However, I'm faced with a small problem, 1 the sim is lvl 70 and 2 it's hard to get a team together to help you farm the ability pills. First off I like the white hallways areas though they aren't very fun to go to, so I purpose changing the Level of the Combat Sims in the Org areas to 55 or 58, this is due to the fact that personally I believe only those that actually spend the 100 million info should have access to these org pills, also this would enable people to farm more of them and sell stacks of them on the market for other orgs to buy. Also, if at all possible, Create 3 new Keys that mask org reputation 500 million to be able to go to any of the org areas with no rep requirement so you can get other org pills and not just your own. If anyone Agrees or Disagrees, pls say so, and I know this has been said in the past but it needs to be looked at because this content is so under used it's almost sad that hardly anyone uses these areas anymore. Ty for your time reading yet another Skull post kthxbai.

This thread is for how to improve the very start of the game, before even jacking in it should be something to remember. So this is what I propose, something that could easily be done to help new players see what this game is really all about. At the very start when your making a new charactor you see right before it a couple little movies, the first 1 should be a sort of introduction into the world of MxO. As in someone could be speaking to you telling you about the game and story and such. The next movie you should see is a more high paced action movie put together by fights from Events, pvp at mara or just really cool things that you can do in mxo. After that movie you wont be making a charactor yet, you will choose, Male or Female and a Blue pill Name. You will then wake up in a room much like the ones used in the start after you make your charactor. This area you live in will be a sort of training ground but you cannot train yet, you're still a blue pill. You cannot suicide in this either as to be able to jack into the matrix quicker... You are in a cut off area of the city, not to big, much like a construct, all the rooms in the building you are in are open, the rest of the small area is mission area closed. After you leave your bedroom you will get a Knock knock message coming from the front door. When you open the door there will be a contact standing in front of it, click on him and you will recieve a promt telling you that you have a package and he will trade you a Cell Phone, use the cell phone and you get a mission for inside of the area as a blue pill. The mission will be a Recuriting mission where you go and meet someone in a near by building. Opon entering the building the cell phone will tell you in a mission promt that you need to hurry and get there quickly because the Feds are after you. You will then have to travel through a couple doors, when you do a Agent will be standing there /crossarms and say something like Mr. or Ms "insert last name" Please return to your home. They will not shoot at you just kinda like a hurry up sorta thing heh. When you enter the mission area you will walk into another room and talk to the Redpill with the name, he will tell you about the matrix and give you the choice to take the blue pill or the red pill. Take the blue pill and you are teleported back to the apartment that you started in, take the red pill and a little movie will pop up of a hand taking the pill, then falling over looking at the red pills staring down at you. After this I think another movie should play with just words on the screen, something like "This is not a dream." "You will understand in due time" After that, you will be able to create your RSI, then you are sent back into the area with the blue pills. There will be a contact on your list for zion in this area, the contact will have 1 mission that sends you to a building that you will need to learn how to fight in and shoot and stuff. After that you will be sent to a room inside of a building with a phone in the middle of a table. Clicking the phone will let you jack into the matrix, this will start a new little movie, explaining that the truce is now broken, the machines will attack anyone that works for Zion and alittle background story on each of the orgs. Then you find yourself at the area we all start. Tell me what you all think, feel free to add to it or disagree with whatever I put here. Ty

Black Market Collectors.

Black Market Collectors.

So the concept of this is basicly 7 collectors be placed around the city, these collectors would be from the black market and would only stay put for 1 week, when the servers are reset or updated they would be moved to different areas in the city, making them hard to find. These collectors would be unique due to their items and their requests for said items. First before these are implemented, every collector item in the game should be able to be turned in at their respective collector for a box of the collector items, making it easier to hold onto them for the black market collectors. Now to put alittle more detail on the collectors, each collector would have a list of 5 items, that are rare and very hard to get. Each of the 7 collectors has a different list of items and all are very good items. I've come up with a list for 1 of the collectors with buffs and all. Black Market Headgear: Basicly a Black shiny Patchers headgear. Min charactor lvl 50. Melee Resistance 33pts Balistic Resistance 33pts Thrown Resistance 33pts Max health 400pts IS Cost Reduction 15% IS regain rate 20% The collector will ask for a box of 20 of every single collector item from accross the simulation aswell as 500 million info. (Due to it being from the black market, of course it will be a very high price and grind for such a rare item.) Next item. Black Market Shoes: These shoes are black with a slight black smoke FX coming from them. Min Charactor lvl 50. Melee Accuracy 5pts Balistic Defense 20% Balistic Resistance 33pts Melee Resistance 33pts Max Movement speed 20% Viral Defense 5% To get this item the collector will ask you for The lvl 50 ninja Gear, a pink gi and 250million info. Next item. Black Market FM-1600 (A knock off of the agent gun, with slightly more damage. And downgrades. Golden Color. Min Charactor lvl 50 Base Damage 16-16 Range 20 Downgrades 5% chance Powerless 10 seconds 5% chance stun 10 seconds 5% chance confused 10 seconds 5% chance rooted 10 seconds 10% chance to slow. The collector will ask for 50 System Tie Clips Aswell as 500million info. (The items you get from the lvl 100 Agents that attack zions only.) Next item Unlimited Silver Bullet/Wooden Stake (You get 2 items a silver bullet and a Wooden Stake that can be reused untill they run out of purity.) Min charactor lvl 1 The Collector will ask for 100 wooden Stakes and 100 Silver Bullets aswell as 100million info. Next item Black Market System Hack. (This item is very good for pvp and anyone would want it, basicly it's a tool that while equiped gives you a red GM fire around your RSI and a chance to heal you when you take damage.) Min Charactor lvl 50 Upgrades 50% Chance to heal 500-750pts (This means that it gives you a 50% chance when you are hit to be healed from the item instantly for 500-750 health points.) This is a item everyone would want and those that get it would really be uber but hey if they work hard for it why not? The collector will ask for 1 Male or Female Patchers Bandana, 1 Male or Female Patchers Headgear, every collector box of items for the collectors in the simulation, 1 Male or female Ninja GI, 1 male or female pair of Sleepwalker Pants and 500million info. The collector will tell you once you have gained the item. "You didn't get that item from me, it's a banned item and the machines might not like you wearing it/using it." After recieving the item, you will regaurdless of if you have the node or your org, will recieve a system message that Agents are homming in on your location.(Note this is for all items that all of the black market collectors have. A lvl 255 Agent will begin to spawn and hunt you down.) Now I know some of these items are extreamly uber, however, the collector that has these will be moved once a week making it harder to find this one, players will spend hours searching the matrix for this collector, and I will have items and their buffs for the other 6 collectors when I think of them. But for now, tell me what you think of this idea and don't say it's impossible because this is a very plausable idea and could be implemented to give players a reason to leave richland and search the game for these uber collectors. Giving people a reason to explore again and a reason to keep farming the old content.

So yea, the reason for this is simple, I have every ability tree in the game, with different ways to combine the loadouts, now I'm faced with a choice, I'm limited to only 10 combined hotbars for 10 different loadouts. Adding another 10 or 20 to this will increase the ability to set up more hotbars and change to them alot faster, now I know it's probly a hard thing to do to save all those hotbars, but I think it would be useful to the people like myself that have all of the abilities. Plus, I can't see any reason why this would unbalance the game. I mean personally 100 hotbars would even be better really, but 30 or 40 is good to, so please devs, It really does suck when I have 18 hotbars filled and everytime I wanna load up heals or area hacker I have to change the hotbar 19 and 20... Plus I have 4 different loadouts for ma, 4 for guns, 6 for hacker, 2 for coder and 3 for spy. I cannot have all these loadouts placed on my current 20 limit hotbar. Plus it would be nice to have a spot for macros and clothes so you don't have to go through your inventory to look for stuff. Not to mention loadouts that branch and hybrids, this 20 limit is to low... Pls raise it. kthx

So, I was thinking, I do it alot, but yea, why is this construct not used more? I mean this server is mostly machine now, and yet we still gang up on 1 or 2 people in mara... Why is the construct, that everyone, including myself, not being used for free for all pvp? What is the deal here? The other orgs don't do it, cause they don't have enough people, machines, if you are pvpers, and we are all friends, I see no reason why we can't pvp ageinst each other in that construct. I mean alot of us, myself included are bored, I see it all the time, there is a means to fight your friends now, please use it... It's not like anyone is gonna get mad in pvp, machines are all mature, and if someone does, they don't have to pvp. I'm just saying, use the construct more often, it's there for us to have fun in, and I really think we should start using it more.

But I would need some help for it to even have a chance at working. So anyways, I have this idea, just came to me in a day dream... I only play two games online, mxo and Second Life, for those of you that do not know what Second Life is, it's basicly just a game where hundreds of thousands of people go to do whatever they want. It's a free mmo that you can do anything in. Even advertise other games. So I was thinking, if I could get some really good people that are godlike with sigs and stuff to make a few pics with mxo as the title or just random quotes from the matrix movies in them maybe I could put them in Second Life and advertise the game to thousands of people. I mean it's free to play SL to so people could come join me and help me out in that game aswell. It's worth a shot but I mean who knows, it might get a flood of new people subbin to mxo. So if you think it's a good idea or you want to help just post here and I'll see if we can't arrange something.

So anyways, I've been lvling an alt on syntax and just recently noticed in datamine that for low lvls, below lets say about 40, which my charactor is lvl 25, anyways I noticed that in the lower lvl areas for datamine there are next to 0 nodes. Even holding the datamine luggable I still couldn't get anything and just left the archive cause it wasn't worth it. So I wonder if it's a bug with datamine or if it's intentional, if it is then that is *CENSORED*. Lvl 50s can farm info but lower lvls that need the info to lvl up their abilities can't? HUH? Anyways I'd like to know if anyone has any information on this cause it has me slightly confused as to why only lvl 50s can datamine and lower lvls are forced to just mission. Plus if it is a bug, then I suggest it get solved and I will personally send in a ccr about it after I'm done posting this.

Ok, alot of you are probly like, no that will never happen but hear meh out. First off, I'd like to say that I don't really know if it can be done or not I'm just asking you all if you think it would or would not be a good idea to be able to loot a dead player. Secondly the loot itself would act like that of a npc only it would have an effect on the player. The effect of being looted is no death effect and only the person or team that killed the player can get the loot. The loot would not be whatever the person has, I.E. Clothing, guns, or any special items that they may have won in an event, the loot itself would be a small amount of info, with a chance to take up to 50k from the dead player. Also if they have any luggables on them or code bits/frags those would also show in the loot table. Now here is the thing, you can turn this feature of being looted on and off, however, holding a luggable will force you to be looted, you can still reconstruct before being looted but then the luggable problem or any bits on you would be lost. I just wanted to know what you all thought of this and if a dev can pls say if this is at all possible that would also be good.

Those of you that know me will probly ignore or bad mouth this but I've got to do it once again, simply to show you how much I care and to show that my dedication to this community has not ended. I recently came up with an idea, one I'm sure many people have heard about by now due to a certain email I made and sent around to almost every lvl 50 on Recursion, those that did not get a email probly didn't because I missed you or because you were not a "pvper" in my eyes. Pvp is a sort of time passer for most that play this, for others it is all they do. Alot of people on recursion pvp even more so pvp all the time. I am one of those people that have been pvping and will keep pvping untill the game dies. I for one have been trying to breath more life into pvp for about a year now. Why you ask? I have heard from many players that have quit and players that are still around that pvp is boring and half the time it's pointless to fight at mara. I've come to realize that mara c is a drug for most of you, one that is by far hard to give up. You go there simply because it's where everyone else goes and in the rare instance that there is no one at mara c someone posts on these boards that the game is dying... I for one am tired of the same old thing, I've recently tried to give most of you the oppertunity to break this habbit of only fighting at mara c. The reason I am doing so is not for my own gain but simply because I care. That might sound alittle funny coming from someone that kills people all the time but I assure you I am not lying.
My idea for anyone who cares about pvp is simply to change where people go to fight. This game is huge and people just don't seem to use any of it for fighting. Why this is I've no clue but in the past people didn't go to downtown because there was alot of lag in that district. Now I've been told that most will not go to other districts because they are going to be attacked by lvl 100 agents... First off when there is an event or something in another district people don't complain and say an agent is gonna attack me if I go there /mockcry. So why people don't use the other areas of the game is so confusing to me. This idea I had was this, to get 30 players, all lvl 40-50 that only pvp. This rule is there because everyone in the list of 30 players must respect each other enough to be able to vote on areas each week to fight in. 30 players all pvpers, 10 from each orginization. I've contacted alot of players that are real hardcore pvpers and most of them don't reply or stop believing that in time my idea will work. If I had 30 players, 10 from each org supporting my idea I think pvp in a different spot or more then 1 spot per week would be awsome. Those people that have read this far are thinking "Well skull why should we go somewhere other then mara to pvp?" The answer to that is simple, don't do it because someone tells you to, I'm not trying to control anyone, simply make this idea happen because you want it to succeed! Think of this idea as a tool for pvpers to use in the future, one that will not be based on just randomly going to mara c and pvping all day but rather one where players themselves choose the location by vote as induviduals and then support that vote by going there and seeing a better and much more fun side of pvp. Think about it for a second... Having a huge battle inside of the government buildings lobby, like they do in events. Fighting on top of a huge building in downtown. Fighting in and around the metacortex building would be awsome for pvp, at least I think so, and I know how good it is cause I've invited people to pvp there and it is nice. Only going to some random area that you aren't familaur with and duke it out with people! The reason this will be fun is that there will be a supprize factor involved. You don't know the areas very well so you have to adapt and in doing so you become stronger fighters. I'm asking you all to concider trying something new, trying something that could bring pvp to the entire matrix, anywhere being a battle feild! Just think of the possiblities, and before you judge me or say, yeah but skull pvp will always be at mara, think... You could change that just by supporting my idea, make Mara Central a pvp free zone and try the much better areas of the matrix to pvp in! All I ask is simply to give the idea a chance, try it for yourself and simply because you don't see mara c around you and people talking doesn't mean that the other areas of this game still can't be used to pvp in. I really don't understand why people go to that hl only to fight, it's out of control and needs some change, but I'm only one man and I cannot change everyone's mind alone but if ten players from each orginization reason with the rest of their org then the battle will be alot harder to lose. Thank you to anyone that read this and please post only possitive comments or suggestions to it, if you have nothing nice to say please do not post it because I will report anyone that flames this idea. Once again, Thank you for your time. Skull086

This is something people have talked about before I'm sure but I will twist it as much as I can. This will be a thread based on Reputation with your org giving you nice items. Reputation based items are simply items you can only use with a certain number of rep points with your org. I've come up with a few items that once you reach a certain amount of rep you gain an featured org item, these items would have no timer and they would be the same as archive reward items. These items would simply be for show and if you happend to go below the set amount for that item it will be removed from your inventory. Max Reputation with an org will result in a very nice item from that orginization, if you go below max it is removed from your inventory. The list of items that will be given from smallest rep to max rep. Machines: 20 Reputation = being able to create a crew. 25 Reputation = being able to make a faction 50 Reputation = A name tag placed on your RSI, doesn't matter the shirt or coat it will always be in full veiw on your RSI. 75 Reputation = The Agent shirt, no buffs and it is just for show, so it can pretty much go over another shirt. 100 Reputation = Being able to use a White hallways key. 120 Reputation = a Earpiece, no glasses just the earpiece on your RSI so you can have any glasses on with the earpiece to. Max Machine Reputation = The FM-1500 In silver though, as to keep the real Agent gun a event reward item. If someone tries to get the gun then goes under max rep it will be removed from their inventory. I think I'll leave the zion and merv items to those in those orgs, I can't really think of anything like the machine ones so maybe someone else can.

This isn't a good bye thread so yeah... I'd like to make this thread something for the community, something people can go to for stuff, stuff that they can do instead of standing around a hl or going to farm stuff. Or just pvping for fun. I'd like a change from this daily boring stuff that people seem to love to do... Ideas for little random get togethers in other areas of the game where people can either win stuff or just have fun. This would of course be player run, and they aren't really going to be events. More like fun random things. I will of course be using skull as the charactor for this random things that people can do in the game. Examples of things that I'm talking about. I'll post here a time and place, location of which I will be in the matrix. They will be random buildings or whatever but people can show up to them if they want. Each time people will either have an opertunity to gank me in pvp or listen to what I have to say. I mean like what I might have to say could be story based or it could be random, all with a purpose. Each time people can come kill me or they can ignore these posts, idc either way. But I feel people should be able to have fun so yeah... Each time I will be in a building or a random location doing something flagged. Each time I will have a luggable on me. This is just so I can be tracked because I will attempt to escape. Everytime I am killed and the luggable is taken from me I will post the persons name on this thread. Like I said these ain't events they are just random fights with me. The person that kills me will have their name recorded on this thread and will be sent an email with a random prize, either info or a item of my choice. Always something good. Tomarrow I will be in the back room of the camon c church. The light will be off and I will be flagged, I will be an assassin and the first person to kill me will be recorded and given a random prize. I will be there around 4:31 pm Eastern time. Since I am a machine I feel giving them something to do aswell will be helpful, so all machine operatives that assist me in staying alive will each receive a random prize. Given the nature of this, I'd like to say to anyone and everyone that wants to give it a shot, please try it out, if people come tomarrow, I may keep doing this, I may even come up with better stuff for people to do other then catch and kill me, oh and each time I do one of these I will be in a different loadout. Have fun recursion, this is for you all to have some fun, don't let it go to waste. =)

This thread is something I don't think I've seen before but if I'm wrong then meh.. I'd like to discuss the clothing that npcs have that we cannot wear due to them not being avaliable yet. So here is the deal, find the npc with a piece of clothing that we cannot get yet and if you really want it for players put it on this thread and say why you think people would like it. I've got two for now. http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a4...86/Malemask.jpg They have been telling us males for almost 3 years that they don't have masks... LIES!!! That looks like a mask to me if I ever saw one. I'd like a lvl 50 version to be put in game and one that is non buffed in different colors at venders. Why? Because people would love them I mean you can't have everything but these masks could be put on players and if we had them alot of people would wear em. The next one is the outfit this lady is wearing... Now I know this is a 14 and up game but come on... Players should be able to wear those. And yes I mean just females... Sexy ain't it? =P http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a4.../Femalemask.jpg So if you have a piece of clothing you'd like for players to be able to wear or have some ideas for mixing and matching pieces of clothing then post a picture and people might agree with you. Better clothing ftw!

As the title says this is an old topic that I feel needs to be looked at. Loads of people are strongly agenst this but others are not. Breaking the limits placed on our minds... And what I mean by that is just this, level 50 should no longer be able to hold some of us back. There are a select few that could break this limit placed on our minds and yet we are not given the opertunity. So I purpose a few things be done. So listen up devs cause I'm bout to school you in content. First, 1 construct should be selected, I purpose yuki since it is the first and should be the last. Or perhaps a section of downtown as a construct where it is always raining. This I think would be better since it needs to have buildings to support a new system of missions. An area as big as Creston heights placed as a construct. It could be called Downtown Hell or something like that. This place would cost you 1 hundred million to get into and you only have 5 chances to use the key. Why? Because once inside this construct, there will be 5 mission construct npcs hidden around it in buildings. Each npc would want you to do up to 500 missions for them, each one would be a different mission type but nothing really with a story to it. Why would someone want to do that many missions and pay that much to enter an area like this? Well for one thing not only will there be mission contacts all over but you will also have lvl 55+ up to 70 running around this area. Also this area of the game would be gaurded by agents aswell. Now let me explain how the missions work. Each contact has a set number of missions that must be done to get a item, more like a token. When you complete all of the 5 contacts missions in this truely hostile area and do all of there missions probly somewhere around 2500 missions in this area and you only have 5 chances to go back after being killed. Once a player gets all of these missions done and has all of the tokens, they can then go back into the matrix with them to their archive vender and trade all 5 tokens in for a mission. This mission can be replayed infinite times and because of this... It will truely allow one of break the limit placed on their minds. The mission itself will consist of 10 parts each part will be alot harder then the last. Now here is where it gets tricky because our game doesn't work this way right now. Once this mission has been gained a person can gain xp, however, death will make them lose some of it. So if they are truely stronge enough to gain new lvls then this would not be a problem. The mission itself would go along like this. First is meet the oracle, here the oracle will tell you how Niobe and Morpheus all went beyond their limits and in doing so became so much stronger. Next you will have to dodge lvl 255 agents in a mission area as you attempt to get a disk from the machine mainframe showing how to break the limits they have placed on us all. The third step will be to decode it. You will be told about a strong program that has details on them on how to break the code of the disk so you can see how to gain more levels of awareness. The npc that has this data will be lvl 60 and alone in the mission area. A player must go in alone and kill it. The forth stage would be to go to a vetren npc that has gained a higher understanding of the matrix. He will be lvl 65 Once a player beats this npc they will be given an item that only works in downtown, the mission will end at the 4th stage and once the player activates the item downtown the mission will continue. The 5th stage You will be asked to kill 20 npcs in one mission area all of which are lvl 55s. The 6th part of this mission would be to fight a lvl 67 npc and kill them. 7th part would be to dodge more npc and hack 3 computers in a mission area. 8 would be slightly different because it will be more pandoras box type then any normal mission. There will be 5 spawns from this box each one harder then the next. All of the npcs will be Agents. Oh and did I forget to mention that while attempting this mission Agents will be after you? And by this I mean they will be chasing you from mission to mission and once each mission is completed Agents will be behind every door in the mission area. Once all 5 spawns of npcs are killed the player will be given another mission key that only works in international. The two final missions are the hardest. The 9th phase of this mission would be to fight Seraph at lvl 55, he will be given special buffs though, have every style of ma and be able to heal himself 4 times, each time he is close to death he will heal half his health instantly. Once you beat him he will do what most npcs do not, stand back up and tell you to meet him in the final area. The 10th mission will be a lvl 60 seraph that heals him self to full everytime he is close to death up to ten times. Once he is killed you will be told that you are ready and gain half a bar of new xp, hence breaking the limit up to lvl 55. New content for higher lvls above 50. All the old styles that were going to go in game will be revamped and placed in at these levels. Also there will be 3 lvl 55 pieces of clothing for now since I cannot think of any others. They would be a pair of White Seraphin shoes, That mask the Hel club gaurd wears. The bulky male one. Looks kinda like dare devils mask. And a trench coat like the one the assassin had only in black. How's that for alot of content? Now I know people are going to be like "that will never happen!" But it is possible to make all this happen and who knows, it might happen one day if enough people want it.

So yeah, tonight my computer was, I guess hacked or something, I was playing a online game when all of a sudden I lost internet connections and my computer froze up completely. I completely whipped my machine with a full system restore which cleared the issue of all the viruses or whatever it was that completely destroyed my computer. Anyways it was so bad that I couldn't even do ipconfig in the command prompt. So anyways enough about that stupid little problem of mine. Since I completely whipped my machine I had to reinstall MxO, the whole game patched in about 45 mins while I was in the shower and I attempted to log in. I get to the charactor select screen and choose my Main Charactor Skull086. I click my charactor and a MxO box pops up telling me this while it tries to enter the game. The file client.dll could not be setup properly. No available render modes were detected. The Aplication is now shutting down. Ok.... That is pretty much what the box looks like. It's really weird and I don't seem to know how to fix it. I've tried doing a full system check but that doesn't seem to work. So.... Any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

Furihata Central HL http://s8.photobucket.com/albums/a4...Furihatac17.jpg http://s8.photobucket.com/albums/a4...Furihatac16.jpg On a building close to the hl there is a satilite dish for coders. http://s8.photobucket.com/albums/a4...=Furihatac6.jpg If you go to the area to the left of the satilight dish you will find some venders. http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a4.../Furihatac8.jpg The building they surround is a dojo. For dueling or just training. http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a4.../Furihatac9.jpg A small ways from the hl is another really nice area of furihata c. It has loads of benches for people to sit on and chat and it's got a big fountain in the middle of it. http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a4.../Furihatac1.jpg http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a4.../Furihatac2.jpg The area also has a really nice club, very nice hang out. http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a4...Furihatac14.jpg http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a4...Furihatac13.jpg OhHHH and you wont believe it but apperently the devs didn't want us to know. There are other doors in the international district that go to the white hallways. Yeah and get this... It's right near the furihata c HL!!! http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a4...Furihatac12.jpg Now isn't this place really worth checking out now? TELL YOUR FRIENDS! Anyways so that is the Tour, I hope ya enjoyed it and will finally get people to travel all the way from noob mara c and hang out in a place that has so much to offer!!!! http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a4.../Furihatac5.jpg Furihata Central PWNS MARA C!

Ok people hear me out. This post is for all those that loved to chase the assassin down back in the day. We never get to do that anymore so here is what I purpose. Live Event Charactor Bob. Why Bob? Cause it's funny to see a char with all the assassins abilities devs abilities like the assassin had all on a char named bob. Or rather The Bob. lol Anyways hear is what I think should be done. You know how the CSRs host little stupid events every now and then? Well how about instead of triva they go on Bob and gain all the powers of a Dev and go on a killing spree? Lvl 100 Bob would of course be killable and whoever kills him gets like a stack of smith rage pills and oracle cookies or something. The Bob would be like the assassin he can switch orgs at will, change his form, teleport, dev abilities, all the loadouts in the game... Think about it people. How would you like to see a live event char named bob wearing like pink or something clothes running around killing people and laughing then running away so people have to try and kill him? Come on Sign and maybe the devs will think about it if we get enough. Oh and this char would do this at least once a week maybe twice on each server. /signed

First off limmie get your attention by saying that these ideas are simply random ideas that pop into my head for this game. I will post many of them overtime so watch out for em and discuss on any new ones. Now some of them are not even possible but they are random and I'd just like to put them on here for you all to read about. Hopefully you will enjoy them as much as I have fun thinking them up.  Random idea #1. Simulacrum Rehaul 2.0. Basis of this idea is simple, the simulacrum we currently have are dumb and very weak. So I figure a rehaul on them is needed. My ideas for the simulacrum in this game are very complex so bear with me. Think of a world where creating a sim wasn't random. An option panel would pop up when you tried to make a sim giving you the ability to change the sims name, pick which loadout it uses, pick which attributes it had like your own RSI, pick it's clothing... Then once you have created your little sim you can use him like you use your own charactor, your RSI would be left unguarded and helpless while you run around in the sims body. If your body is attacked the sim is destroyed and you return to your RSI after a couple seconds... Also I believe sims should be given more models like if you are merv you should be able to make a sim that looks like an exile if you choose to, machine would be any program that the machines have and zion would be just normal little zion sims... Clothing Rehaul 2.5... Basis for this idea is that the current clothing system, although good if very small in choice. I believe if you are a coder you should be able to change the color of any piece of clothing just by spending some info and bits. Also being able to custimize your clothing wouldn't be to bad of a thing either. Take a buff from one piece of clothing and add it to another minimum is 5 per clothing. Construct rehaul 3.7... Basis for this is that the constructs are very... Lame other then the higher up ones it's not all that awsome to really go there. There needs to be a really good reason to go there and not just to farm items. I think something should be placed in the constructs, something that players would want to go after and fight to the death to get. I purpose an item, hold it for a set time limit and a npc pops up in front of you and hands you a really rare item that you can only ever get one of. People would fight for an uber item if it was worth it. Also adding more constructs to the current game wouldn't be to bad of an idea. I purpose you add 3 new ones instead of just reusing the ones we already have and just making the npcs and drops a higher lvl... I say add a pitch black constuct with nightmares in it. Just a huge area with no light and fill it with nightmares and a boss in the middle. Another one could be a light construct that has the angels from the box 4 in it. Just a huge area fill with light and the angels put a boss in the middle. A third construct could be the inside of a huge building. Make it look like zions little white hallways strong hold and fill it with random npcs idk what to put in there but pvp would be cool inside of a closed off building the size of zero one with a bunch of rooms in it. And make it so there is no cealing so you can hyper jump around inside it. Collectors Rehaul 4.1.. Basis of this is just that all of the rewards that the current collectors give are pretty lame and the collector should want more then just one npc gang item for better rewards. Also sometimes their reasons for wanting the items are pretty dumb, think of better reason for them to want those items. Plus I think there should be more then one type of the collectors items. Like have a list of items from shoes to outerwear and have it all the same buffs so we can choose which ones we want. Gang Rehaul 7.7... The current gangs are really lame in my opinion and they could be imporved opon. Take for instance the blackwood gang members. They will always be weak and wearing the same clothing. There needs to be areas of all the gang territorys where there lvl goes up alot then just 3 or 4 lvls. For every gang to not just them. They need to have different abilities to because the same old crappy ones just wont cut it. I also think that gangs should fight each other instead of randomly walking around doing nothing but attacking redpills as they go by. Gang wars among the street gangs in mega city would be awsome. I believe also that you should be able to gain the respect of gangs in mega city. Have a huge list of all the gangs and their rivals, kill the rivals of a gang and gain respect with that gang. So in time you should be able to recruit gangs from certain areas in their territory depending on your lvl. Just a thought but I think it would be cool having exile gangs fighting people for you. More flexable combat system rehaul. I purpose a combat system that is without a dout more flexable then anything else. Being able to select your attacks is fine but what if you could do more then just select them? What if you could build your own attacks? Create attacks that would own anyone and they would be your own! Add a system to the game where as you progress through the game hitting buttons in a way that I cannot really explain would make your own abilities. Having full controll over bullet time would also be good. And free fire shouldn't be some random animation it should be a bunch of combos that attack one after another. Of course I know this would never happen and it isn't really all that well thought out but meh, it's just a random idea. Make falling damge a factor in fighting. Lets say you are up on a building in downtown and someone hits you with ki charged foot sweep next to the edge of the building. You shouldn't slam into an invisable wall, no you should be thrown out of interlock and fall off of the building. Falling damge in pvp and duels would be awsome I think. These are just a few random little ideas for this game, now mind you people I know none of it would probly ever happen they are just random thoughts is all. More to come soon as I think it up I'll post it. But you all may as well discuss the ideas I just threw out there untill then.

I Skull086 purpose something be done about the machine laisions never coming on our server. So here is what I'm asking, how many of you would concider making my alt LifeDestroyer the new machine Laision? Now this wont be official but it would be a thing with just the machine players on recursion. Since the devs don't wanna give anyone else the job I'm asking, who would or wouldn't mind LifeDestroyer as the new machine laision? Oh and trust skull on this one, LifeDestroyer might be me but when I'm on him I act alot more like a machine program and I don't really act to stupid when I'm IC. Also please just a yes or no is fine. I am not trying to turn this into a flame war about who should be the laision. I'm only asking for a vote from the machine community. All in favor of Skull's alt LifeDestroyer becoming the new laision, say I! All oppose say umm... Something random maybe? Just no flaming please lol...

I've always woundered what this game would be like if things were done slightly different around here...Ever since I first started playing did I want the devs to listen more to what the players want and think rather then what they want and think... It's not about the devs or CSRs it's about the players and I feel we are the only thing that can save this game from dying as most people think it is. I, however, don't think this game is dying I believe people are just tired of not getting what they want. So what I always thought was what if this game was run by the players and the devs just help get the players what they want? It's a crazy thought but all the same a good one... Now what I always thought was what if the players if the vast majority wanted something in the game and the devs didn't have the funding or the man power to make it happen I purpose something be done. If everyone wants something badly enough we should be able to get it if we help fund it. So what I purpose is if alot of people want something that would really help this game I think those players could pay alittle more maybe 10 or 20 bucks more a month to reach a goal which is the content that they want. I also feel that if a large number of players want something the devs should drop everything they are doing and get right on it if the funding is provided by the players and the ideas aswell... I for one think that the matrix online is great like it is but it can be so much more. Something alot of vetran players wanted and dreamed about for two years... And the devs should listen to us. Some of us, myself inculded have been through it all. Now mind you I wasn't in the first beta but I did help make cr2.0 better. I've been through it all in this game and even though I feel the devs are doing a good job with events and some bug fixes and other things like missions and stuff... I feel that if alot of the players are willing and able to help this game to be something better then we should be given the opertunity... Now I'm not rich but if alot more people were behind me I would gladly pay 30 bucks or 25 or whatever a month to get the content we want so badly. As long as I know it's going to what I and alot of other people want then I'm fine with it and I'm sure alot of other players wouldn't mind it either... This is just an idea that popped into my head, it's not well thought out but it is something I had to share with all of you. Because if alot of people feel they can do nothing for this game but watch the devs give us random content then alot of people are gonna stop waiting for what they want and leave the game. I for one will not be one of these people. I love this game and all of the content in it, however, I cannot speak for everyone. This is only an idea and I want to know what the rest of the community thinks about it. Discuss.

Well people, it's been about a month and a half since I last jacked in. However, that was not my fault. My DSL got shut off because my mom ran the bill up to 500 bucks and they just shut it off... THEN! When I got Dail up hooked up I made the dumb move of trying to upgrade my graphics card so that after two years of horrible graphics I would finaly be able to see the color of my hair... Sadly the new graphics card was bad and messed up my computer... Bad for me of course cause I couldn't find the problem, untill today... I was finaly able to fix this thing but in doing so I had to reload my computer and it wiped all of the data off of it. Which means that not only will it take forever to redownload the entire patch again, but I have to do it on a dail up connection... So it might be alittle while before I get back in game but when I do most of you wont have to worry about me pvping, due to my current internet connection I will probly be lagging really bad. But at leist I will be able to stand among the best online community I have the pleasure to be apart of. So hopefully sometime next month I will get my DSL turned back on and will be able to punt all you zion and merv noobs out there once again untill then, I'll probly just mission with my alts or rp. All in all I am just happy to be able to return to this game, because as most of you know I would not ever leave this game unless of course I had no choice... (mummbles under breath about the dsl getting shut off due to my moms over all stupidity...) So I hope to many of my friends haven't left the game since I was gone... But now that I've returned you can be assured that I will liven up this server like I always have. :p See you all back in game in about 20 or so hours...........

I'm not quite sure if this has ever been posted but I have an idea for something along the lines of a quest for this game... Now it seems that there are some really rare things in this game that no one will ever be able to get again because they were given at events or because they did something cool.. You all know which items I'm talking about... Anyways this is my idea. Put a collector ingame that collects every single archive reward,hideout drop, collector item, construct drop, both female and male, every kind of frag in this game, every single object, interface, patch, sub, every bit 1-8 and 1 billion info... All this stuff for what you ask? Well... The rarest items in the game of course. FM 1500, Assassin's mask, org buff abilities like Glimmer of the source or mervs boon.Or maybe even a archive reward that is always running on your rsi, this would inculde all archive rewards not just 1 or two.. As well as any item that has ever been rare enough to where people have wanted it badly... If this were ever put into game, I think alot of people would have ALOT of stuff to do, this would take forever to get all of those items and I feel the rewards for all of them is worth the time put forth...Plus it would not only take forever to get 1 item but to have a list of uber items to get over and over, that would really make people want to keep making new chars and lvling them up to get all of the items... To work hard for what you want... THAT IS HOW IT SHOULD BEH! What do you all think about this idea? Discuss:

Not sure if it's ever been discussed before but well I got a few ideas of my own as to what they could be... First and formost I believe that each district should get a set of luggables, perhaps even different from the other districts. Second, I feel that the luggables should be able to do more then just flag you and give you buffs, not sure if this is a do able thing or not but it's only an idea after all. I think each district I.E. Downtown,Westveiw,International and Richland should all get a set of 5 luggables. Or rather 5 types of luggables per district and make them all different... I've got the idea for this to. Types of luggables: 1. Mission Luggable: Flags you for pvp and allows you to start a mission that gives out info and xp as well as rep if needed, depending on your orginization. Only difference is that this luggable makes the xp and info from normal missions doubled, rep could be put into it to but the xp and info is good enough I think. 2.Tracer luggable: This luggable is just for people that liked to be tracked and chased... It works like a tracer, when someone comes within 100m of your current location it sends them a message of your coords... It is updated once a minute so it would be rather difficult to track someone or you could just use the luggable detector... Also it of course would give you a buff like, oh idk perhaps speed boost and evade interlock bonus or something... 3. Flag luggable: This item is alittle different from the normal luggable, it could be used for a capture the flag mini game run by the players and of course rules and base locations would be up to the operatives playing, no buffs other then maybe 1 or 2 on the flag luggable. And of course it flags you for pvp. 4.Power enhancement luggable: I believe this luggable should have god like stats on it, nothing to uber powerful but loads of buffs maybe like one of the PB items or something.It flags you of course and gives the holder a huge power increase...Perhaps the buffs could be something along the lines of the assassins mask or maybe the pandoras box shoes.. It should also have a cool effect on you to. Like purple fire or maybe green fire, oohh maybe even white fire and white code eye effect. pwnt! 5. Super rare luggable: This luggable would be very difficult to find because once someone drops it or dies with it in one district it spawns after an hour in another district. The reason it would be so rare is because it would have some awsome effect, something like more memory or perhaps special abilities as well as buffs. Whatever the rare one does though it would have to be something worth looking for... Aswell as holding onto of course.  Oh and the model for each luggable would be: Mission luggable would be a cell phone, perhaps a different color one in each district. Tracer luggable would infact be some small device in your inventroy that could turn invisable so you don't know you have it or something, that way if a noob picks it up, they get mad when they die lol... Flag luggable would of course be a flag, maybe have the name of the district right on it or something. Also a different color for each district. The power enhancement luggable would look like an orb or something maybe even a little orb of light. The rare luggable would have to be golden perhaps a golden gun or something that you can't shoot people with, or maybe it gives you golden code all around your body kinda like that evade combat ability from the hacker tree, what was it called? Makes like a white aura around you but only it would be gold.  So, if anyone likes these ideas then give me feedback please, and if you have your own little idea to add onto this already great idea, please feel free to add it. Think of anything that you might want as a luggable and put it here, maybe one of the ideas will get a devs attention and it will be put into the game when they have the time to do so of course.

A man walks down the street, being watched by people standing on buildings, unaware that his life will be taken today... As he walks the man seems to look around more as if his paranoid state isn't already bad enough. The man is being tracked by a operative working for the machines... He knows this but cannot stop the man all he can do is walk and act as if nothing is wrong. For an hour he walks, affraid to look at people, so he stares at the ground. To affraid to start running he keeps walking and comes apon a hardline in downtown. Near the hardline are two redpills dueling as if no one else can see them, the man isn't a red pill but he knows of the matrix, just not everything... A week before this walk of his, he was contacted by some zion operatives. He thought they were crazy, by what they had said to him. But in the few days after they spoke to him he has been seeing more things that he cannot explain. The other day he could have sworn he saw a man change, into a man in a suit. It was strange at first but then the man in the suit jumped from the ground to a tall building in front of him. This was something he had never seen before and it shocked him alittle... Just alittle... The man had always been somewhat of a skilled fighter but as he watched the two redpills fight he knew they weren't just skilled, but they were amazing... After they had dueled they looked over at the man before jumping away. They did this so easily that it seemed almost as if they could fly at will... But then he remembered what he was doing, so he continued to walk, faster this time then before. He turned a corner and kept walking straight unaware that this would be his last mistake... Unable to understand at that point why he was being tracked, aswell as not knowing how important this day in his life would be he continued to walk down a path to no where. He began to run but he could not understand why he was running so slowly, he couldn't even see the person following him but he knew, deep down inside, he knew if he was caught he would be killed... As he reaches the end of the road the sun sets in the background, making the ally dark and scarey. The man fears for his life and begins to shout out randomly, "Someone help!" "Please they are gonna kill me!" But dispite his loud voice no one comes, no one helps him, he is all alone with a being unlike that of a human, chasing him... Then as the man turns around he hears a voice, "Do not fear me Mr. Haywood, I am only hear to offer you a deal." Mr. Haywood:How do you know that name? I haven't gone by that name in years, at leist not openly. "Quite, Skull is it? You will come with me Mr. Haywood or you will face death." Mr. Haywood: I will do no such thing. You are after me for a reason, might I ask why? There must be a purpose? Please, do tell... "Mr. Haywood, I do not have time for such games, come with me and I shall spair you, otherwise... You will die here..." Mr. Haywood: Not with out a fight... The man standing behind skull pulls out a knife and stabes at Mr. Haywoods head but it is dodged easily. As a counter attack Skull hits the man with a few karate moves and dazes him. Skull tires easy as he doesn't know how to controll his body to meet that of his oponent, but he fights without showing it... The man hits Skull with a blow knocking him out cold, not so much killing him but leaving him out cold. A few hours later Skull awakeneds in a room, filled with light and two men standing in front of him. Skull:Agents... What is this? I've done nothing wrong! Agent: Resistance is futile Mr. Haywood. Agent: Mr. Haywood do not resist, you do not understand in the very leist, how much trouble you are really in... Agent: It seems you are aware of the system Mr. Haywood, there for you are of no use as you are... We know that you have been contacted by some "people" they will soon be your best friends.. But no matter what they tell you, we are the gods of this world, and even though you may not understand what this means now, somewhere down the line you will seek to join us, you will understand that we are the human races only chance to be free and without us you would all kill each other... *Agent hits Skull with a gun, knocking him out.* Two weeks later he becomes a redpill, and a year and a half later, I remember this day and why I choose to become a machine... Not for myself, not for my friends, but for humanity...

I'm pretty sure I've seen someone talking about this on the forums before but I want to bring it back up. This is to give ideas or maybe some thoughts on what it should be if it ever were created. I have a few ideas and I want the community to give their thoughts or ideas of their own on what it should be. A few thoughts on it. I think if this were ever possible that it should be a mimic Disguise. What I mean by mimic is you click on another player or npc and put the disguise on, and it turns you into that player or person complete with details and name. Now I know that would be crazy but it is a cool idea, no? My second idea for it is to make it grant you the ability to sneak while standing. This one I really don't see a problem with but it's up to the devs to see if it is. I think implementing it would be easy aswell. Just take the master shadow ability that lets you turn another player invisible for a short time and put it on a disguise mask and call it ultimate invisablity or whatever... Also I bet if this was possible that the devs would screw us over by making it have a long time limit or something same with the above one. So please give any ideas or thoughts as to what it could be, and maybe one day the devs will implement it into the game. (Really hoping it's the first one)

I am Skull086, a former zion warrior and I now work for the machines. I currently work for a program that although he is not strong he is very important. He is Life Destroyer. I work for him because I hate exiles. They are always trying to mess with the system and I can't let em do it. The merv is the biggest threat to the matrix in my eyes. He does what he wants when he wants to do it and for that, he must be deleted. Deletion is a new machine faction, we only have 2 crews and only about 7 or 8 members maybe less. I am the only lvl 50 in the faction but I do not run the faction. The faction is Run by Kammat and LifeDestroyer. We are currently looking for new members and one of our leaders will be happy to interveiw anyone that asks to join. If anyone is intrested send either myself or LifeDestroyer or Kammat a ingame email and someone will get back to you shortly. This faction has all things pvp, rping, help for new people to the game and overall fun.

People of the mxo community, this is to tell any of my friends if they don't already know that I will be returning to JobCorps today. It's been a great 17 days ingame, and I really hate having to leave it again. But I must if I ever hope to return to this game, and to my friends.So this isn't a good bye thread it's a thread to say thanks for a great vacation, if not for most of you my vacation ingame might not have been as worthwhiled. I will return to the game in a few months people and when I do believe me there will be H3LL to pay zion. I'm gonna destroy zion when I get back and rack up them cqs like I did in the past 17 days. I got about 750+ cqs in around 17 days which isn't bad I suppose. I even got the code eyes and Fire virus. And I even got my machine rep from -94 to +30 in those days I had. Know this, I will miss all of you even the people I hate, (You know who you are). So I'll being seeing you all hopefully in a few months. Laterz...
