    yes. Exactly. You are not a contract partner so why should you've any right to stick your nose between something that only is between two business partners? Exactly, you shouldn't have.

    Like others said: You got a legit answer of how it could work (S2 contacting her) and even after her answer (instead of thanking her for the provided answer since she is in no way obliged to answer anyone, or would you answer some strange person on the street how much money you make?) you got on on how she should just put the contract on the interwebz so YOU can look it up. No wonder you got no more answer from her.

    my right to inquiry is innate within me from the moment I'm born and I'll be damned if I'm gonna keep my mouth shut just to please people who hold celebrities and the like to a higher level of respect just because they're 'in the lime-light'.

    She is a celebrity,
    (maybe? I don't know her. I didn't even know that the avatar was made after a fictional person) that doesn't change that she is a human and has the same rights as you. Specifically the right to have secrets, to not have to answer any ****tard that is strolling along and the right to keep business secrets. If you can't accept that, you walk against your own argument that she is not 'special'

    also, being nice and asking properly ('Would you please...' 'Thank you for your answer') extremely help you getting an answer. Just a suggestion.

    As a natural human being, I most certainly have the right to ask about something that concerns me. Just because I am not directly involved in the contract, does not mean I have no right to ask about it until I receive an answer that satisfies me. Whether or not I receive that answer is a different story. If YOU are willing to wave your right to inquire, that's your prerogative... I choose to voice my concerns even if it's unpopular or otherwise not socially acceptable.
    She's certainly not obligated to answer me at all, I never meant to imply that. BUT, the fact that she's unwilling to answer shows that there's something to hide.

    *Edit* now it seems that you DID remove the "rebel" bs* Cut the "rebel" crap, if you think that voicing an opinion or inquiring about something that is apparently off limits because of my status, is just some teen rebel s***, you need to wake up and stop letting corporate red-tape dictate what you as a human being are allowed to ask about. I asked why she wouldn't let S2 make an Aluna alt... absolutely NOTHING about her personal life and it certainly wasn't as random as your scenario implied. It's a perfectly relevant, non-invasive(on a personal level) inquiry which was not satisfactorily answered (imo).
    I NEVER said she doesn't have the right to secrets, what I AM saying though, is that keeping secrets about something like this suggests that it has to do with money and nothing more.

    But hey, at the end of the day - even though I may SEEM like I'm losing sleep over this. It doesn't really affect me on a personal level, just felt like doing a bit of digging and I didn't like what I found.
    Like I said, I don't particularly care if people are upset by what I've said... I don't need confirmation from the rest of the internet, don't like what I say? don't take it on board, simple.

    Who said this is anything about entitlement? The question is not whether we're entitled to the alt, but explicitly WHY we can't have one (other than the dismissive answer "it has to do with contracts").
    Mods? Really?
    Do I need to point out that a mod is no different to an alt avatar, yet she's not pulling out the contract to say players can't make an Aluna mod?

    Hi Tuxator, Aeternitatis and the rest of you that are being kind and nice. You are right when you say that being polite is always the way to go when it comes to getting things done. Sometimes people feel because I'm in the public eye that they can be mean and rude to me, it doesn't happen often but when it does I just stop replying and delete their rudeness. That being said you can see in my http://www.facebook.com/OfficialPaulaGarces?ref=hl that I didn't delete the thread as it was his opinion and he is entitled to it. I always try to be a nice person and I love to interact with my fans on twitter and Facebook. Heck I'm even here checking what is going on in the world of HoN! LOL . HoN is a cool game and the people that run it are cool as well. I am honored that you all love my character and choose to play her. This is awesome and truly a dream of mine that came true. So I guess I'll end this with a big thank you for those that support me and even those who don't The real Paula Garces aka Aluna.. Just so you can verify that this is truly me I will give HoN a shout out on my Twitter @paulagarces1

    I highly doubt that anyone decided to read that comic after playing the hero.
    No one cares, people just enjoy having fun with the skill set that she provides.


    Paula your cheap website looks terrible, no hard feelings.

    Why not collaborate with HoN on an idea for an alt avatar and feature it in a special limited edition of your comic book? Both sides would benefit.

    WARNING! My opinion below! Don't pee your pants about it pls. <3

    Why does Aluna need an alt? It changes absolutely nothing about the hero except the skin, maybe a voice change, and maybe a couple animation changes.
    None of which are needed. The voice is great, the model and skin is great, and an alt does absolutely nothing for the hero. Nothing. Why does everyone think she needs an alt? There are other heroes much more in need of an alt than her. Proposing that S2 remove the hero completely is absolutely ridiculous.

    First off, not everyone feels that way. You might like the aluna model, I personally hate it. You're forgetting there's two sides of the spectrum. Plus every other hero in the game has an alt avatar, literally every other hero.

    I knew there was a comic and something about S2's insperation for the hero etc. But I didn't know where to find it, and didn't sweat it really.

    That is your opinion, I may not agree with it, but I'll fight for your right to say it. Or w/e. Something inspiring related to the first amendment blah, which is being ignored now-a-days blah. Blah blah blah. Pointless arguing is stupid. And should have been a 2 post process: Step 1.My post, my opinion. Step 2! Your post, your opinion. The end. Happyface.

    Idek how this is a 5 page thread.

    @PaulaGarces
    Hey, it would be really nice of you to let S2 make some alts for Aluna, at least to quell the cries of the people who think Aluna needs one. Don't worry, there are people like me who will always use the original, if they make one I won't buy it. The original will always be the best in my opinion. (Sorry S2, I'll buy other stuff though :3)

    wow now paula herself posts in the topic but doesnt even address the topic or give any new info. she just promotes her fb and twitter. wow she obv dont know nothin bout hon since she calls errthin about it just 'cool'. yea hon's a prty cool guy...

    jk, im not that critical but the statement above does have some truth to it, and i kinda agree with tox (especially with the whole movie plug she did, kinda made it seem she wasnt taking his inquiry seriously), tox basically just got the 'run around' imo. and her post in this topic seems like its more of her trying to improve her rep then actually shedding light on the issue. but wut do i know, inb4igettrolled.

    I don't think S2 ever confirmed that Paula had problems with her hero getting alt avatars. Even if that was the case I'm sure she'd agree if she could do the voice for the new avatar.
