Umm, how do you mail things to other characters? There is no attachment area in the mail screen when composing a message

You have to be at an Until terminal to mail items. They're usually near the jets that let you go between areas.

Yup, and in Millennium City's Rennaisance Center (the place south of the jet) there are a few.

Use your name (@TheHud) or the recipient's name (ex:@8bithero) at an UNTIL station (several in the MC Ren Center and you can attach them there.

Just be aware that the Postmaster General does impose a tax on mail forwarding, which is variable. It can vary between 0% and 100% depending on how shiney the items are.

Bit odd that nobody in the game could help you with that. What zone were you asking in? That, along with "Where's the UNITY building" are probably the two most common questions in zone chat in MC at the moment...

No no, I charge VAT or sales tax depending on what country you are from. Shiney factor only plays a part in the lick factor.

Compound shiney AND lick factors? Is this a parabolic or linear scale? I almost daren't ask how the lick factor is calculated, in case... well.. someone gets offended *smirk*

It is most definitely not parabolic. But you need to come up with the Ick quotient first.

Is there a formula to calculate the Lick Quotient?
Is it inversely or directly proportional to the Shiney Coefficient?
Should the "Time To Thread Lock" also be taken into consideration?

No no no, ICK Quotient. A shiney metal bunny has a lower ICK quotient than a regular bunny, but a regular bunny has a higher ICK quotient than say a zombie bunny. The shiny coefficient is used in calculating the ick quotient which is used to calculate the lick factor.
This formula is also used to calculate how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop.

Please note that as Chief Inspector of the Fashion Police, all costume unlocks have to be approved by me. This involves me trying them out so I cannot guarantee they will be wearable afterwards.
On a side note, we have determined that purple items are causing an outbreak of l33tness and smug superiority. Thus all such items must be forwarded to myself for proper disposal.

Aaah riiight, with you. ICK Quotient used to determine Lick factor. So easy to get those two mixed up!
Just one point to clarify, how many Licks to the Slurp?
Is an Ick greater or smaller than a Eww?

Ick is smaller than a Ewe, obviously since an ick is an intangible thing, whereas a ewe is very tangible.
Why did you need to bring sheep into the equation?

Thank you for the link. This clearly explains why we have to enforce no purple items and vet all costume pieces. The result of ignoring the laws can be clearly seen in the depraved goings on in this clip. It also causes mutations in moustaches and the inability to sing in tune. So please, for your own sanity, continue to send all costume unlocks and purple items to myself, so that the Fashion Police can protect you effectively.

Back when I used to post on the CoH forums, we used to be so bad at derailing threads that the mods had to make a separate thread for us to hijack. And it was stickied, and its still there.
I think once the question 's answered its okay to do so.

I'm not in "the industry" as much as just a freelance noname.
I design game systems for people's needs. Like, if you wanted a CCG/board game/single player video game/MMO/PnP style game based on whatever seems important to you such as the dynamics of running a marketing company or corporate client relations or disaster relief phone operations, I'd do that.
Those horrible "corporate retreat" "interpersonal dynamics" ice breaker games, I've done some of those.
