Quote:I think it is usually easier to gain a reputation than to prove it incorrect. It seems that through global channels, sgs, and even this forum it is easy for us (all) to form opinions on what everyone else is like, personally and sometimes as a player. And sometimes a bad attitude from a bad day translates unfairly into a generalization that follows the person for much longer than that day.
I know that I certainly have a hard time forgetting when someone gives me incorrect information to a question, or begs for a team to form and then quits the moment it gets tricky. But I also know that sometimes when I post my words don't clearly show my actual intent or feelings, and I'm sure that I look like an idiot on a regular basis when (arguably) it isn't really the case.
(And to paraphrase Wes Janson- you can't look dignified when you're having fun.)
5 gold stars, and 2 thumbs up. I agree completely and deal with this almost daily.
I was called out for being a sucky emp by a very vocal member of champion.. i recalled the tf that garnered me this title and it was a tf i didnt want to do, but did because i was asked and asked and asked and finally said ok f it. So ya, I didnt play as strongly as perhaps I should have.
Problem is, its follows me.. just recently, I was on a team with people and someone said.. oh, you dont suck as bad as bla bla led me to believe.
Nice.
Part of this issue i see is this...
Im still a noob, I just hit my 12 month vet. In this time, ive pretty much just played with my sg.. People that all joined COH within a short amount of time of each other.. We play together all-the-time so our playing style/habbits most likely arent the same as the vet players or the l33t players.. and its those players that just dont have a lot of patience for those of us that just dont play the way they think we should... and then get the label of being sucky... and it sticks.
It wasnt till I/we joined BMT (back in May) and started teaming with other people seeing that there is in fact some areas that need to be changed, in all of our playing styles.
It is fortunate that the majority of people we do play with now, are pretty cool and patient, and will offer up suggestions when they see things that would perhaps be better.. BUT there are also several of them that are still impatient, snobby, pretentious a*holes that roll their eyes when they see you on a team. .. and thats fine.. they pay their $ like i do..
Id rather spend my time with people that are fun, friendly, and outgoing VS people that are uber gamers and just care about DPS/buffs/debuffs. .. the best part is that they all pretty much rock. If you look hard enough you can find a good mix of both. -
Hmm...
War Admiral and myself are totally down for this.. we are PST tho and thats a lil early of a start time for us.
Maybe we could start a later team? Like say.. 11 am pst? Or maybe even in the late afternoon area? like say.. 5 pm? Which if I think about it, that may be better for the people i typically play with. Either way, I'll do whatever works best.
lemme know. -

Last night Colder and Tech were hovering at 49.5. There was some chatter about an MS RAID next Wednesday for the Villian Static teams. I would be up for this. If we want to do that when should we gather in RWZ?
It was really good to Walking and Foss late last night, just as I was getting off and going to bed. -
Quote:wow @ all the irony/hypocrisy/lies in this post.Hmmmm, i read this thread a little late. If you need extra support then contact a member of ALL-OUT-WAR in game since we have members on almost at all hours of the day that should not be a problem.
ALL-OUT-WAR has 2 static teams running and about to start another one since our Fire Static Team has hit level 50.
Fire Team: All fire based powers, ours had Fire Blaster, Fire Scrapper, Fire Tank, Fire/Emp (Divine Witch), Fire/Force, Fire/Storm, Fire/Kin, and Fire/Rad. This team rolls extremely well!
Lords Of War: Run by Capt. Scotland (Crey Freezebot, Darklin Wizard) This team took the following powers: Archery, Trick Arrow, Devices, and Traps. Yes all are Blasters. Fast and Furious and tons of Fun! We are still running about level 35 if your interested in joining. My character is Gunmetal Queen (Assault/Device). Capt. Scotlands character is Gadgetter (archer).
Yes it is true AOW is an inactive sg with no one in it (oozing sarcasm here) so contact the following in-game.
Solar Fire Sr. (A-Jay), Solarflames, Pyreklism, Fire Sword Scrapper (Kassey), Burnin Rad (shaawing), Illyana Radburner (Battling Beastman), Gadgetter (Capt. Scotland), Apocrypha, Frozen Flafatron, White Raven 724, Lost Warlock (Toxic Striker), SENSELESS, Fallen Savior, Prixy and anyone with ALL-OUT-WAR above their names. There are many i have not added to this list, but it will help you find people who can help you and get teams going.
As for myself i only help people who are team friendly. I do not help people who do not respect others, such as those who continually harass people in PvP Zones and people who constantly jump teams in the middle of missions and TF's. So no i will not help Templars of Steel, Protectors of Neverland, Untouchables, or EXILE! Or people who have been nasty such as Dark Friar or Sonic.
Use a little common sense and respect each other and i will be more than willing to help you!
If you want to get on regular static teams, or just have fun with a great group of people get an ALT and join ALL-OUT-WAR, we will help you get your character to where you want to be!
Thanks for listening this is my tirade for the day
Remember: HAVE FUN THAT IS AN ORDER

HI..
Can you PLEASE do something about the lag during the rwz raids? -
Quote:Celestial Lad or Celestial Lord? Celestial Lord leads the thursday night raids.I dunno.
It seems that most of the Wednsday night Static Teams play between 7pm Eastern - 11pm Eastern, so we should probably schedule it somewhere in the middle of that. Say, about 9pm Eastern.
Does that sound like a decent time for everyone?
Meeting on the Rooftop next to Pylon 17?
How does that sound?
Maybe even though Celestial Lad isn't a Static Team guy, maybe we can recruit him to lead the Raid, since he's much more experienced than most of us at leading Raids.
I have a vil static team on wednesdays but we're all just baby vils still..
although rwz is now open to any lvl... hmm..
kidding people, i wouldnt do that to anyone. -

Well.. poop.
Life is getting in the way yet again this week. My wing-man started a new job this week (congrats on that btw) and is still getting a feel for his new schedule and what-nots... so with that being said TFT is on hiatus this week too.
Since we missed last week, and now this week we will resume next tuesday, sept 29 and have the this sessions finale on oct 6th..
The Oct 6th run will be the MoSTF run.... should be a good 1.
I'm sure though once everyones home this evening and dinner is out of the way (we're west coasters) we'll run some sorta tf.. it just wont be "officially sanctioned" {lol}
<3 Cherry -
blah.
can i be a sub if someone doesnt show on any given week? -
you should have explained it for me.
and you always love my mt's =\
its not just on bmt either. gotta love the mid-mission local/broadcast mt's when youre talking s**t about people on your team. -
blah, the game makes me queasy. champions is too. bla bla BLAH.
jerks. -
[BMT of Champion]Wynter Phrost: Ive had Tragedy Anne
[BMT of Champion]Wynter Phrost: mt
[BMT of Champion]ChaosCoyote: Oh, but funny -
I dont get lag and i dont get it in the ITF. Only time i did get lag was shortly after i15 and it was for about a week.
Shawn said it was due to me being on the west coast and having less packet loss?
shrugs. -
Quote:Nice raid tonight, y'all. However, Friar is right. The lag was atrocious. It took me a full three minutes just to bubble my team.
For next week's mothership raid, I'm going to have to mandate that everyone wear costumes sans capes, auras, and / or customized powers. We'll see if that helps any. Sorry.
riktikini time.
next week's theme.
less is more! -
actually, that convo is a lot like surfing wiki.. 1 word leads to another to another to another..
weird random convo. -
Psh, I bet Felecia coulda beat this time.
we ran our moitf in 44. I think it would have been faster with a rad and me not on my emp. I wanted the badge on her though.
Was super fun and nice having a goal in that tf other than just beating s**t up
congrats on soloing, thats pretty awesome -
Quote:I've never been to Great America? Hrm.
What's it like? Website hunt!

Quote:Why Six Flags when Great America is literally right across the street from the hotel and is infinitely more awesome?
Hmmm...
they both are awesome.. just depends what you go for.
Rides : Great America
Attractions and Animal shows : Six Flags
However..
For sand, ocean, people watching, surfer gawking, old skool rides and cheezy fun :
Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk -
Ya.. if thats the case.. should we cancel TFT this week?
yay / nay?
