Error 404: Title not found.

Just to update: Carbonite has gone freeware. You can now download the full version for free, supposedly the obfuscated code will be removed next version. Interestingly, one of the developers posted on their website that Blizzard were the ones who initially suggested going ad-ware. Blizzard told us in December we could make money from ads like they allow wow websites to do and they "suggested" we release a full version for free, but we could put ads in it. We followed that course and they did what they did. We never would have released an ads version if they didn't suggest it. It was a pain in the butt for us to add and a waste of time. That's...extremely confusing. |

That's actually moustache-twirling evil.

I call shenanigans.
Blizzard: "Hey addon-guys! We've got a client base of, like, the world. Why don't you stick revenue generating ads in your addon so you can get some of that hot action." Am I the only one who thinks that sounds unlikely?

I just tried out Carbonite since I figured what the hell.
Holy shit what a mess of an addon. How is this more intuitive than Questhelper?

It can replace your minimap, and merges the overland map (with its quest tracking data) into it.  The circular area is what you would normally see with your minimap, icons such as gathering nodes and quest icons appear there as they do normally. The map scales depending on how far you are from your objective similar to other map mods such as Mapster. There's about 50,000 other features but I have most of them turned off. |

Hmm, when i added carbonite it just created another minimap, was there a setting to remove the original or did you need another mod for that (and if so how do you get to all the crap that's on it?)

It's a setting. "Replace minimap with Carbonite map".

I've met at least 2 D/s playing couples in City of Heroes (where admittedly playing a character running around practically naked is A: not entirely out of place in the world of superheroes and B: gear being a foreign concept in that game, not dangerous to your health) and while the bio is definitely 'O GAWD' territory it's possible it's a humiliation thing to have that for all and sundry to see.
Rubberlad and Rubberhubby would be one of those D/s couples, right? |
