    Where did that come from? (new guy here)

    What? Is that a Unicorn Horn?

    ROTFLMAO

    You got me good. Totally unexpected funny.

    Someone in my fleet misspelled Iconians a few weeks back, something like Uniconians.
    :D

    After a long day, and one too many cups of coffee, one of the devs decided to start on the next project. And then the SILLY rose up inside.

    The beginning of a Cryptic Crossover - Invasion of the New Purple Gang

    Be sure to post caps if you see any characters that look like they should be in Neverwinter Nights. Then the crossover will be complete.

    And wouldn't it be cool if Cryptic ever managed to celebrate a big company anniversary with a a triple game crossover. Company started in 2000 s the next big Anni year is 2020. Devs get crackin' on it. ;) <
    yes, we will never see this since three separate companies control three separate franchises, sometimes it's just fun to think about. :P

    Heh, now instead of 'Red Alert!', I'm going to end up going into battle thinking 'Roll for initiative!', thanks...

    It's better than the way Diablo 2 did it.... there is was more like "roll to see if the boss ganks you". Er... well.... this actually applied to certain regular enemies too, since you'd occasionally get sniped by some enemies.

    To see this one for yourself, you will need both a Samsar Cruiser and a Reman Prototype Covariant Shield Array.

    This is likely a coincidence and not a Dev who love Groucho Marx so much that he wanted to include his face on a ship. Or is it?

    What?!?
    Why in the world do numbers get filtered?

    132 looks like "TRIBBLE" when written out in binary.... (might be 10 digit binary)

    Um yeah.... it's THAT obscure a reason.

    Seriously? Because the in-game censor for messaging, ship and character names, and so forth is set way, way too sensitive. I've seen it go off for the name of a bird, just because it appearantly also happens to be an obscure slang term, and last night it told me that part of the string of characters in 'Janice Rand' is banned when I tried to name a ship after her with Grace Lee Whitney's passing.

    I understand them wanting profanity kept from the game - Star Trek is supposed to be for all ages, afterall - but there comes a point when it becomes over the top and ridiculous...

    Actually... there's a second filter for the names of some canon characters. It's why all the people who name there ship Enterprise have to spell it wrong.

    And unfortunately, there's no way to tell the difference between the two filters because they both give out the same message.
