You guys need a week with a few Coronas, a tropical island, some babes in skimpy swimsuits, and no computers. After you're done with the tropical island, maybe you can come back home and argue without setting the place on fire.
Forlorn, PT's are doing what they are suppose to be doing. You are obviously underestimating us for some reason, may it be jealousy? I do not know, if we weren't doing our job we would be shafted. Why don't you just sit tight, be quiet and wait for the new release? These ridiculously long and unneeded posts by you are doing nothing. <b>nothing</b>
Exoity, do I need to <b>force</b> you onto that plane? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
See, there's a little bit of truth in each of these posts, but it's too well masked by the obvious attempt to make every adjective used derogatory.
Well, lets just put this way, if the PT's don't do their jobs and hand out an unbalanced game, they will not hear then end of it. Espcially after what Foltron mentioned.
Lets just wait and see what happens when the beta is released.

Where did I say they were invulnerable? Infact the only person who's saying they're invulnerable is Forlorn. I said they were harder to kill and had the advantage in their hive which the rightfully should.

Don't take offense at any of the "community" jabs made. If you've seen some of the arguments made about how important the NS community is and what it consits of by him in #ns, you'd find it hard to give much thought to his opinions on it. It's a shame to see such a view on the community, and it's role, but I suppose everyone has their own interesting way of looking at it.
On the regen issue, personally I'm going to take the overall opinions of the people actually PTing it over the speculation. Or better yet, wait to see it myself before denouncing it. We'll get all the time we want to rip the idea to shreds if it's horrible once it's out, and then the input would actually have an impact.

I'd be willing to support Forlorn becoming PT again. He seems to know what he's talking about, though not anything about B5. I honestly think here that with how he is pretty damned meticulous on this stuff, that it could definately help.
Also, this is more of a random question, but is it possible to update server settings on the fly? I.e. balance numbers? You know, have someone outside editting the file, saves it, and has it instantly update, or is it only once the map is reloaded?

Chill out. We'll see when beta5 rolls around.
