  1. Holy Necro, Fredrick! This was dead for almost a year!
  2. Sure. But we all call him Mr. G for short.
  3. I don't want to post anything, troll anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to troll anything posted or processed, or post anything trolled or processed, or process anything trolled, posted, or processed, or repair anything trolled, posted, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that.
  4. Goooooooood Morning, Paragon!
  5. I agree with Garent, since you can't stack the achilles -resistance proc from the same caster it's a waste to put it in so many attacks. At most, I would put it in one single target and one AOE.

    I would put damage procs in place of the others. In fact, you might consider using 2 acc/dam HOs, 1 range SO and three procs in each single target rad attack.

    I would also consider 6 slotting obliterations in your PBAoE.
  6. Greenflame,

    I have talked with you in the game and on the forums and find you to be a good and helpful person. But no matter how good and helpful you may be, someone will always disagree with you. Some of those that disagree with you may be just as nice or they may be jerks.

    It's not worth the effort or the mental anguish to try and figure out why other people disagree with you to the point that they click a little button that results in negative reputation.

    Just go with the flow and keep being the best you that you can be and let the others worry about themselves. You can't control what other people think or do and you'll be happier if you don't try to or even think about it.
  7. Happy COH Anniversary to a scholar and a gentleman!

    Felicidadez!
  8. Congratulations!

    May he sleep through the night and have poop that smells like flowers.

    It won't happen, but it's nice to have dreams.

    Oh it's so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl.
    And with the way you look I understand
    that you were not impressed.
    But I heard you let that little friend of mine
    take off your party dress.
    I'm not going to get too sentimental
    like those other sticky valentines,
    'cause I don't know if you've been loving some body.
    I only know it isn't mine.
    Alison, I know this world is killing you.
    Oh, Alison, my aim is true.

    Well I see you've got a husband now.
    Did he leave your pretty fingers lying
    in the wedding cake?
    You used to hold him right in your hand.
    I'll bet he took all he could take.
    Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking
    when I hear the silly things that you say.
    I think somebody better put out the big light,
    cause I can't stand to see you this way.

    Alison, I know this world is killing you.
    Oh, Alison, my aim is true.
    My aim is true.
  10. I think I recognize some of those names.
  11. Your kitchen sucks!

    Good luck, Noodle!

    In short, stop messing with things large segments of the playerbase enjoy, fix the things that nobody likes and release new things to do in a more timely fashion.
    In their defense, I18 went into closed beta not long after I17 was released live. I can't remember them ever being that fast before.

    See if you can corner Lucas into joining us.


  14. Hurry back safe and sound or Sailor Girl will be sad and lonely.
  15. I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother's illness, Fanny.

    I hope she feels better and that your trip is safe.

    LOL! That was a hell of an edit, Munki.

    By keeping track of XP earned in an AE mission and relating it to the XP earned by defeating the same number of foes of the same level in a normal Mission. It should be pretty easy to gauge who's intentionally exploiting the system.
    His post says to compare mission in AE to mission in normal game, not AE minion to non-AE minion.

    Regardless, I do not support his idea. It will not solve anything. Exploiters will still find ways to exploit and his idea will only serve to limit everyone who isn't exploiting. Frankly, I don't think his proposal will even find a single exploit.
  18. How do you compare the force field defender soloing on -1 x 1 to the IOed brute going at +4 x 8?

    How do you compare defeating 80 minions and 20 lts to 60 minions, 20 lts, and 20 bosses, or EBs, or AVs.

    You really can't fairly compare one mission to another.

    Please stop trying to impose your morality and vision of the game on the rest of us. I don't want to play the game that you propose. Luckily for me, you don't get to make these decisions.

    P.S. I am not an exploiter. I have never been banned, or even warned. But, of course, you will claim that I am for the mere fact that I disagree with you.
  19. Me, Smokie, and Lucas!

    Team BRB-AFK, GO!

  20. I prefer the anonymous system. Back in early beta testing of MA, your opinions of an arc were e-mailed directly to the author.

    I submitted my comments and got a rather pointed response explaining to me how my opinion was wrong. After that, I stopped submitting comments and only used stars. I don't need or want to argue about my tastes in mission arcs.

    My apologies then, I had not seen anyone else post that.

    Well, I think part of the problem lies with the 5 star rating system. To me, a 5 is perfection, A+, 100%, no problems, no mistakes, no issues whatsoever. I consider 5 stars so high because there is nothing above it and the only thing under it is 1 - 4 stars. If I could rate a great but not perfect arc 4.9 or 4.8 or some other fraction, I would. But I can't.

    On the other hand, I rarely rate anything less than 3. It has to be really bad to get a 2 or 1 star from me. I may frequently quit something and not rate it all for a variety of reasons. But I figure if you put in at least a little effort you should get some tickets out of it.

    I do think that rewards are in the mix to consider, because if I spend 30 minutes to an hour doing someone's arc, I expect to get at least close to what I would have from a regular mission. Otherwise, I feel I have wasted time and effort doing that arc, regardless of how well written the dialogue was, instead of progressing my character.

    Other people have different standards than me and rate according to their standards. That's fine by me. But please don't tell me how I should rate something. My rating is my opinion. You may not agree with it, you may not even like it, but it is my opinion and I am entitled to it.
