Motto: "He who hesitates, is lost."
I've noticed this only three times since I took Neo Convoy to level 6, but it's generated a mission when he's the only bot I haven't put into missions that's a level below his and he can't enter. If I refresh another one is generated that he can enter, so it's not game-breaking, just unusual. Figured I'd report it.

got an "internal service error" around 11:30 pm est. telling me to to email Seibertron and report it. now, the team mission log directs to HMW news instead of the mission logs.

edit: unbearable lag at times. receiving multiple "404 errors" and "cannot connect to server" messages a day, which happen after a page load times out. the page load time outs happen at least 5 times a day and have been happening for about a week.

Those SHOULD be sorted. If not, it may be something on your end (unless I get them as well, which I was, but I've only just logged on.

I was trying to feminise you, it was intended as an insult, I didn't put much effort into it and I forgot that you're not as short tempered as our resident Angry Scottish Midget

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, so I thought I would ask.

This looked fun, so I decided to try it out. I read the rules and FAQ before assigning my allegiance/bios, but I started with 6,000 Energon chips. The FAQ states that I'm supposed to start with 2,500 Energon chips. Were the rules changed without an update to the FAQ, or is this a bug? I'm holding off on creating units in case it needs to be adjusted.

I'd thank you, but I've noticed most of you are decepticons. It would be a waste of energon to thank you before inevitably disassembling you for scientific analysis >:oP

Out dated FAQ.

Simple fact is, the game hasn't been maintained for a few years. I'm not sure what Ryans intentions are towards it any more.

Let me know if you're lacking competition. I can dump some XP on you and boost you up a level or two so you MIGHT see some more competition (can't guarantee it though)

Those black and green lightsaber weapons seem really excellent for their requirements... pity they're out of stock though! Could one of the admins kindly put some on sale? ;)^

They've been restocked twice now. I can only assume there's some asshole out there hoarding them.

Is I possible to restock them at a rate of more than 5 at a time?
Last time I asked only 5 of each showed up.

Well sure ... but what about all the other weapons out there? Why not use some of them?
-edit-
There's 21 (non-coloured) lightsabers, they do the same thing and are cheaper.
There's also the dual-bladed lightsabers as well.

My weapons testing isn't sufficiently advanced to statistically refute your statement but just going off the in game description of damage, no they aren't the same.
The BeeGeeS are significantly better.
