Trouble unlocking Omega costume at the tailor.

March 13 2013
Once again I must call upon your collective expertise Fleetie Darlings as I am in a bit of a pickle.

After much grinding and more Omega marks and neural processors than you can shake a pain stick at, I finally completed my Mk XII Omega Force ground gear set on my KDF main. When all 3 items are equipped I am able to enable the visuals so I appear head-to-toe in the grenade and ammo-encrusted combat suit.

However when I go to the Tailor on Qonos and try to create a more customized version it does not give me the option. The tab in the upper right hand corner of the tailor screen where you choose "off duty," "formal" and "armored" is grayed out and won't drop down. The options don't appear in the general uniform customization screen either. Am I missing something or is there something else I've yet to unlock?

I was able to customize the appearance of my Starfleet main's MACO armor set without incident so I'm not sure why my KDF is being so obstinate.

Re: Help Topic! If you have a forum error, post here!

Low priority web issue -- I appear to be unable to upload attachments for forum posts from Firefox. If I click on the blank or "Add File," the file browser appears as normal, but when I select a file, it just closes. There's no update to the posting page (normally the blank fills with a path and "remove" and "insert" buttons appear) and the file never uploads.

This is consistent both on my home and work computers. Everything appears to work correctly in Chrome and IE, but it's a bit of an inconvenience to have to switch browsers to do my RP updates.

Thanks!

Part Three
The regular sensor sweeps set up to monitor the surface of Hadriepsis D didn't take long to pay off. When a dimensional breach occurred, the Sally Ride crew were ready and beamed quickly to the area. With assistance from Starfleet personnel stationed locally, they began a search for the epicenter of the spatial distortion they had detected.

The search seemed fruitless at first, leading them to an area where clearly nothing was amiss, but Captain Orenn noted a computer error related to the orbital research facility. First officer Seven investigated, and discovered that the station was broadcasting skewed navigational information.

Lieutenant Benton contacted the Sally Ride, which created its own orbital maps. With these, the away team quickly located the real source of the dimensional breach.

When they arrived, they were shocked to find Night, somehow free from his captivity, in a room full of corpses and one nearly catatonic alien survivor. He immediately launched into a rant filled with threats and gloating about the inevitable victory of some "empire."

He overplayed his hand, though, when he physically attacked Orenn. To do so, he had to turn his back to Lieutenant Benton, who had spent the entire standoff slowly moving laterally to set up a flank attack. The Lieutenant saw his opportunity and felled the rogue officer with a stun beam to the back.

Some quick transporter work saw Night returned to the brig and the unidentified alien relocated to sickbay. At this point, Lt. Commander Zoril felt that it was time to reveal her origin in the mirror universe's equivalent of MACO to the rest of the bridge crew. She and Orenn briefed their colleagues on the situation, finally putting most of the ship's officers on the same page.

Once that conference had concluded, Orenn, Seven, and Zoril went to interrogate Night. It became quite clear -- if it hadn't already -- that he was an agent of the Terran Empire. He alluded to a Starfleet admiral who helped him escape the brig previously, but his attempts to seduce his way out of Orenn's custody weren't exactly an unalloyed success.

More information was gained in sickbay by Benton and Lieutenant Cor. The alien, a girl named T'Soni, belonged to a species with innate dimensional sensitivity. She had been forcibly augmented by agents from the mirror universe to create natural bridges between the two realities, allowing communication and even small-scale transport, but only by exacting an extreme physical and mental toll from her.

In particular, it became clear that these agents, and the ones responsible for the Hadriepsis raid, were not loyal to the Terran Empire, but another faction entirely. Night had killed them because that was his mission: to stymie their efforts on behalf of the Terrans.

This new faction is the mirror equivalent of MACO. They are locked in conflict with the Terrans over how to deal with the Borg threat in their universe. The Empire, recognizing a superior military force, is convinced that only evacuation to newly invaded territory in this universe is a viable option. MACO is an unsanctioned resistance, not unlike this universe's Maquis, who refuse to flee and are desperately seeking any advantage over the Borg.

This leaves the Sally Ride in a difficult position. If they allow mirror MACO to succeed, they will compromise the security of the Federation on behalf of an organization that has proven willing to abuse and enslave people in this universe. If they defeat this alternate MACO, they will remove the last reasonable alternative for people in the mirror universe, and their only hope will be the Terran Empire's invasion of the Federation.

I dunno if any of u picked up on 2 things 1. the camera began and zoomed in on the name of the pub Clara was working "The Rose & Crown" and 2 the girl Clara was with at the end in the cementary was Melody Pond pre River I ran that scene 4 times to be sure


So, I hate to be the bubble-burster on this cool theory, but Clara's friend is not Mels. I just watched the episode with my roommate (who was watching it for the first time) and paid special attention. Not only does it not look like Mels, but Clara's friend is played by a different actress. Mels was played by Nina Toussaint-White while Clara's friend was played by Sophie Miller-Sheen.

I suppose they could have gotten a different actress, but that just seems weird for such a throwaway appearance if it's supposed to mean something.

The main LGBT guild, I forget the name, but it's on the Landroval server. I haven't bothered to join the guild because I don't play enough. To join their guild, you have to be at least level 15, and you join on a probationary period, during which they determine how much you are contributing to the guild. After six weeks, they vote on whether to allow you to join the guild. This was the only LGBT guild I had found when I was searching.

I don't play LOTRO really, even though I love it, it's the most gorgeous game I could imagine (I'm in the Shire), because I don't have anyone to talk with when I play, and I don't play enough to jump through the hoops to join the LGBT guild.

Gannon and Darkaos, I've sent you both friend requests, but you'll need to accept the request and connect to the North America East 1 server before I can invite you to the region.

Kahless, Sthiss and Twinkleboy, you're all on my friends list, but you're not listed as an available invite to the region. Have you guys tried to connecting to the North America East 1 server? I think you'll need to do that before I can invite you to the region.

Generally speaking, we don't start guilds in games that have already launched and have active glbt guilds. Instead, we try to support the active ones as best we can. I'm pretty sure there are some Stonewall members that play LotRO and are members of glbt guilds, hopefully one of them can direct you to their guild.

The comments I read on that article sadden me. How can people be so willfully ignorant and derisive and then pat each other on the the back thinking they're clever? We're just talking about having the option for SGR's. If it's just an option how is that ramming our whiny liberal agenda down their throats if it's 100% optional??? I even remember EA saying you'd be able to disable the SGR option in the preferences menu so it would never come up in game. It's totally a microcosm for LGBT rights, and much like civil rights and women's suffrage it's not going to be left up to the majority. Granted EA is a business and they're probably terrified to make another misstep but how many players will actually ragequit their games if SGR's are implemented? Especially if, like society, more and more companies face pressure to do the decent thing or lose a growing and vital demographic for good. Are all straight male and female gamers going to hang up their controllers and gaming mouses and break out monopoly, go ride a bike or play take up paintball? I don't think so, they're the whiners, not us, and they're all talk and EA needs to realize that.
