I have a grav/storm in range, depends on the timing.
Edit: I would like it if people had specific examples to point to, because otherwise it seems it's all going on when I'm not around, or people are just blowing things out of proportion. I mean, I take for granted that s3rial will complain about anything, but if this is a bigger issue it seems I should know about it.
No need to be like that, Scoot. Just because we don't agree about CoH very often doesn't mean I'm complaining about everything.
As for specific examples, truth be told, I'm just not interested in putting in the effort. The core problem is that we've got a whole mess of new people at once (which isn't really a problem, per se), and several of them feel that PA chat is there for no other reason than typing out every single thing that crosses their mind.
It's not so much that any one person has been bad, it's that we've got a few who are just relentlessly chatty, even if they have to have conversations with themselves.
Ya know, the more I type, the more I realize that I just can't one-up Grove's post. He said it best.
I know things that sold for 5000 to the vendor... will only fetch about 500-600 on the Auction place.
Okey... but would the thing I can possibly make out of the rare salvage thing be good?
Actually sounds like I could probably use the Inf from selling the stuff to buy better Training Enchs.
I know some random person gave my first character some sort of recipe, which I promptly sold for 7000 Inf. Helped me buy a bunch of lvl10 Training Enchs I wanted.
I think I actually saw a list of recipe things on that paragon wiki site. Which at least tells me what the salvage makes.

As a general rule, I really wouldn't worry about crafting IO enhancements until you are at least around level twenty unless you are sitting on tons of influence. Even then, I would suggest waiting until you can use level 30-35 IOs, because 1) they are the same bonus as a good SO, and 2)The salvage used to make them goes for much cheaper on the CH/BM.
Up until then pretty much all of the salvage and recipes you get can be sold on auction and will go a long way in funding a developing hero or villain. There some rare salvage pieces you may wish to hold onto if you get them however. These include Pangean Soil, Hamidon Goo, Soul Trapped Gems, Mu Vestments and some others. These salvage pieces usually go for at least 1-2 million influence (for the cheapest, Soil goes for 3-5 million) so if you plan on getting into IO sets later on in the game you may be better off holding onto them if you happen to get some, since any money made selling will just be lost when you have to buy another Hamidon Goo or whatever.
Most often it isn't necessary to plan ahead when making IO enhancements. I usually purchase a recipe from an auction, see what I need to make it, and then pick up the salvage from the auction house at the same time.
EDIT: It's also worth noting that you can earn badges by selling items on the auction houses. These badges can reward you with extra spaces on your auction menu and (I believe, but I may be wrong here) extra room in your invention salvage inventory. There's no real good reason to sell to vendors just to make more influence. As a character gets into the higher levels, you start to deal with tens of thousands of influence, and eventually millions of influence. Selling a piece of salvage for 500 influence or 5,000 influence doesn't make much difference.
I need help guys.
Tooling around with the character creator I came up with this.
He delights me.
My only problem is, what do I do with him? I can't figure out power sets that would work with the outfit, let alone deciding which origin could do that to a man.

I am one of those four people.
And my comment on the chat issue: You can be a dick in PA Chat, but by god, you'd better be an entertaining dick and not an annonying one. Spamming chat is the latter, not the former.
Also, if someone is really being a douchebag and there's chat ops on, we can always give them a time out with ye olde silence button. But we're pretty much a discipline free group.

Anyone happen to have a 10 day trial? I'd really like to get into this with a friend, but we'd like to try it first. It doesn't need to be that special one that allows for direct subscription, just the plain variety would be greatly appreciated.
Send me a PM if you do and I'll provide my email address.
The new subscription data from NCSoft's report to stockholders for CoX is out:
It looks like I9 has increased the total subscribers a little, but not hugely. The monthly access boost is huge though, considering the previous number, from March was one of the lowest monthly access numbers the game had had. Which leads to all sorts of "zomg, merge teh servarssss!" crap on the official forums.
I still think this game could have had solid 200K+ numbers if the developers hadn't completely squandered the momentum from CoV's launch (October 31 2005 for those looking at the chart). Taking six months from CoV Launch for I7 to hit, and then another six months for I8 to hit was a huge blunder. Fortunately, the developers seem to have learned, the hard way, that smaller, more frequent Issue updates are better than big huge issues that take forever to come out.
Do most of you play heroes or villains? I've read that CoV is a heck of a lot more graphic intensive and/or laggy than CoH therefore more people play heroes?

More people play heroes also because they have more, higher level hero dudes because CoH came out first.
However, CoV is a graphically more intense environment, that is true.
Me, I tend to play heroes over villains, although lately with HARM I've been playing a villain more.
I tend to play Heroes mostly, because I prefer the hero environments and stories. As well, hero zones tend to be smaller and less cluttered, which is easier on older systems like mine. If your system is not so hot, CoV may require you to lower more graphic settings then CoH. CoV has less zones then CoH, but those zones are much larger and more densley populated with items, creatures and polygons.

i just prefer CoH because CoV zones are so fucking gloomy
Evil is the word -evil- not gloomy >.>. I like both, and lately have been in a villain-trip thanks to HARM... given me so many ideas. I generally keep the graphics down on both side, since the server and my connection hates me if I try to turn it up too much.
I find myself drawn more to Hero side right now, and I can't really say why. Hero side became a hell of a lot more attractive than it used to be though, with base portals and jet packs.
Hero side still bugs the hell out of me, though, with contacts sending me on story arcs to perez and Crey's folly instead of doing something crazy like being zone contained.
That's the... what, millionth time that has been asked? :P Anyway most seem to be on heroes, but the thing is you can talk to everyone through the PA channel whether you're hero or villain, so if you want some grouping just go "Hey who wants to be evil with me?"
I say make one of each, then try to get both up to level 5 and get a jet pack as quickly as possible. Then you're pretty well set for whatever teams happen to start up.

I don't know, but I really want to remake my Stalker into a Katana/SR or Regen Scrapper after the scrapper talk last night. I don't know which travel I should get, but it'll probably be fly because I always pidgeonhole myself into it

What scrapper talk was that?
I've got myself a Claws/Dark scrapper that I've been pretty happy with. Only like lvl7, but I'm happier with him than the Dark/Reflex scrapper I first made.
