Frankly, smiley or no smiley, I find the way that you phrased that offensive. Not everyone who strongly dislikes most of the I9 changes in the game goes around whining about it, or fails to understand and appreciate that they are in the minority.

Although I'm actively participating in the stuff I9 provides, I still have reservations about the potential balance issues it could create.  If power sets get nerfed to rebalance the system for IO's, these new enhancements were a bad idea.  The Statesman TF is gold, the rest... we'll have to see over the long haul.

And remember Spud, "Peace in our time."

I'm actively involved in Inventions as much as I can be.

Major frustrations are the drops (Like my Natural getting nothing but DO's he can't use due to origin, or not getting any costume drops) and the sheer cost of doing any Inventing.

But nothing I can't live with.

I haven't run into any problems because of I9, and it hasn't changed my gaming experience. It has, however,allowed me to team with level 50 heroes and be sidekicked so they can run through their missions for badges and drops. Kinda cool..

I haven't viewed the survey yet (don't have my login password with me).

How do folks feel about Wentworths?  I personally tend to avoid it like the plague as it bogs my PC down and often as not causes a disconnect, although I have gotten some decent Insp selling off recipes.

Love the extra storage.

I really like the invention system and the inventions themselves.  It much more fun to build my enhancements, knowing they will stay at a certain level, rather than buying new ones each time I outlelevel them.  I really liked getting the burned wings recipe.  Now my lvl 32 mm has a ton of money.  i do wish you could find temp flight items.

I kinda like the invention system.   But its frustrating that you can get a rare recipe you want only to find that one of the ingredients is even rarer and costs 4 million influence.    Seems to me if you make the recipe rare enough, once you get it, you should be able to use it.   

Oh well ...

I'll be honest and say that I haven't done much with it yet. Most of that is because I'm on a crappy old PC right now (anyone know how to correctly install a Power Supply on to 939 motherboard for Athlon 64?), anytime I get near Wentworths, it's like time slows down and I find myself at a wedding with full blown mass.
