  1. Good to see the old boys I used to team with regularly! I've also had the Global friend bug affect me too.

    Typical WE1...at least you've made you're prescence known!

    Blizz...will have to beat you at Wii sports bowling sometime. I have a mean left handed spin and 160 points average (is that good?! not sure)!
  2. Just been checking out the post Events for the rest of 2007.. plus a video.

    I've pencilled...no penned (so can't rub it out and makes it a bit more permanent) it into my diary and will be actively going to the "Memorabilia" show @the NEC, Birmingham: 24 - 25 November.

    Any of you guys going to make it down (or up)? A lot more central and will be easier than driving all the way down to Brighton/Bristol or where ever they usually hold it.

    I know I keep on talking about arranging to meet some of you guys in person. But think this is the ideal opportunity to finally get to meet some of you. Anybody in between Newcastle and Birmingham I will gladly pick up along the way.

    One of my incentives is to get to see some of you in person. Also the Guild Wars girls are going to be there....merrrow! Scantilly clad ladeez in costume...can't go wrong with that!

    Let me know if you're interested in going!
  3. With the recent Defiant empty for a reason? post, it made me wonder who has endured from EU release to this day? How long have you had the account for now? Do you still play as much? If not, what you doing now?

    Would be great to hear from some of the old boys!

    Guess I'll start off...

    Original Hero:
    Captain Solaris
    Most Notable Alias(es):
    Earth / Terrax
    Supergroup(s):
    Order of the Wolf (think that was the name...was invited to it just a couple seconds of creating Captain Solaris!) / Guild of Extreme Heroes
    Account Created:
    05 Feb 2005
    Veteran Rewards Time:
    2 years, 7 months
    What Are You Doing Now?:
    Working (or on Facebook avoiding work)! There was a time whilst at Uni when you couldn't get me off this game! Gaming distractions include Guild Wars; playing on the Wii; imminent arrival of Halo 3 on the Xbox360.
    What would make you return to CoH?:
    New powers; Lag fix; More end game content (storyline/things to do after reaching lvl50); More gaming time.


    Come on guys...I want to see you start coming out of the woodwork!

    Hamidon?

    Not played regularly for a long time since i8...however have there been any attempts on taking Hamidon down since the changes were made on him?

    Quickly browsed the pages in Defiant, but nada...couldn't find anything on him (I'm probably not searching hard enough)!

    CS
  5. How many did you need for it and how many turned up in the end?

    Myself and Cynic where there from 20:50 and stayed 25mins or so before leaving.
  6. Well done for getting 50 with Glacial Blade mien fruend!
  7. Sounds like fun...tried to solo one with my nrg/nrg blaster...shot out of the sky and kissed the 'crete!

    Revenge is in order, however will have to use one of my more competent alts!

    Will come join you about 9pm on Sunday with Capt Solaris.
  8. well not been able to get on for the last couple of days!

    just tried it this evening and i'm getting the same as you in terms of lag :/

    will most likely be back on tuesday all day...either on coh or on gw

    hopefully see you soon!
  9. Cool...should be back home by Friday evening. Will see you in there.
  10. Morning girls and boys,

    To those who express their suprise everytime they see me in game...Yep I'm still here!

    Due to a combination of work and a shoddy BT line I have been on very sporadically. But I do still get in game when I can.

    In fact I've created Rogue Sentinel (Grav/FF Ctr) and made him an Egyptian style sorcerer. Those of you who've read "Thanos: Marvel UniverseĀ—The End", he's pretty similar in appearance to the dude in there! :P

    Another thing that hinders my CoH game time is Guild Wars! I just can't get enough at the moment. I've also recently purchased the Nightfall campaign, so now its allowed me to have my own AI heroes that are superior substitues to the npc henchmen.

    Of course I still do love CoH. However since there's no server restrictions and free you can't go wrong! The graphics, sounds and whole atmosphere it creates is immense. If you have it come join me sometime and I'll help you obtain elite skills and you can farm with me to get loadsa gold for all those good looking armours!

    Anywho, I'm looking for people to join me as Rogue Sentinel. Will most likely be on Saturday mornings if anyone's interested.

  11. Well done matey. 7 lvl50s...tis a good number.

    Never got to see this alt...is he as camp as Smooth Operator in his pink power tights?
  12. Hahaha!

    I'm so sorry! I ended up watching F4:Rise of the Silver Surfer that afternoon.

    I did come back on several times. One time I asked MaX to say you smell and that I'll be back on later! Which I did...but when came back you weren't on again, so I decided to get drunk! :P

    Changed her again! DM/Regen?! Again? So its a keeper yes? Hehe...I'm holding you to that!

    On again this weekend, from late night Fri...see you there!

  14. Ya got space for Capt Solaris (rad/rad) this afternoon bud?
  15. Aha!

    Grats my friend! Hope to see you knocking about this weekend!
  16. Hullo everybody!

    Still with a dodgy BB line at home, but since I've been working away it hasn't become top priority to fix.

    I'm over at my sister's flat in the weekend and intend to have a 3 day marathon run at City of Heroes.

    Getting back from London for about 19:00 and will be on from then!

    There'll be several characters I'd like to level over the course of those three days.

    Jack Sterling lvl16 Thugs/DM MM
    Urubach lvl12 Fire/Kin Con
    Aqua Maelstrom lvl28 Nrg/Nrg Bla
    Terrax lvl38 PB

    ...or if there's enough of us for the same costume heroes (fantastic four, x-men style) then we can knock up some alts for it and race through the levels as such!

    Hope to see as many of you on!

  17. Statesman done and done...too easy! :P

    Thanks to: Cynic, Digital Desire, Lokanna Elianna, Miss N Kitty, Rahl, X-99 and Zak. Always much better when you're in a team that know's what they're doing!

    And is ol' Mac back in town? Always good to see you loitering about CoH again my friend.
  18. Woop!

    Well I've managed to get in game...albeit for today whilst I'm at my sister's flat.

    I'll be scouring for heroes to do the Stateman TF, so if you read this and fancy joining me, just holler!

    Hello folks, a little off topic from the current theme but just a little heads up. Been away from the game a while and now on my return I've decided to share my time and rejoin the heroic ranks. Got myself a new toon, a blaster (I can almost hear Capt crying already ) so you should see me being more active over on the light side.

    Mate its great to hear your back! Bah...you're a blaster at heart mate! Yes there is a little tear in the eye, but thats only 'cos its been a while since heard from you last!

    Or then theres Invul/Ice Melee....a solid team tank, but just a tad on the slow side for soloing.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    [ QUOTE ]
    Inv/Ice is a very safe combination indeed and ups survivability by a lot. You dont see many of them mind you

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Very true. I think its for definate that Blizz's Alexia is the only Lvl50 Inv/Ice tank around...and I haven't seen any around since in all honesty. Definately has a better survivability than Earth **says begrudgingly** :P


    Damn BT and their evilness! My phone line is still dogged and can't connect. I so much want to get into the game right now! It'll be nice to get back on though. About 3-4 episodes of Bleach that haven't been able to download since line went down, looking forward to that also.

    Dont they taste all munchkiny? And how would you get the bits out from between your teeth?

    I imagine it to be!

    Ok... I'll keep my other games to myself then

    Edit: Spelling!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I guess I won't be taking you for the new correspondence team then mate :P




    [edit: can't be bothered posting a new one...]

    Oh by the way...You decided on what you wanna make mate?
  21. Tabula Rasa...some aliens type online game thingy

    Careful mate she eats WoW players for breakfast! :P
  22. **chants** "Its all your fault! Its all your fault!" ^__^

    Hehe...only kidding.


    Obviously some disagreements between them, that they needed to get off their chest. No need to put any further blame on yourself.
  23. Mackay! Get on with you're work slacker!
  24. Hey guys and girls;

    Got a friend using the 14day free trial today.

    He'll be coming on tonight, but unfortunately my broadband is still down. He hasn't decided on a hero or name yet, but he's interested in joining the SG.

    Will get details on his hero name later tonight and post it.

  25. I have my PB 2slotted with RchgRedux

    Along with Hasten (3slotted RchgRedux) and Quickness (3slotted..although can't remember what with...not been able to get onto CoH since early April :'( ), you should be able to stack it 3times (pre-mez affects).
