I agree with you, but my point was...outside of the world cracking in half, I seriously doubt anything short of that is going to cause the world/us to change much. Just like you pointed out about humans being similiar to cockroaches in that we can live almost anywhere...we also dont vary a lot outside of our parameters.

In the 1400s, we had nations at war, general strife, starvation, plagues...
In the 1500s, we had nations at war, general strife, starvation, plagues...
In the 1600s, we had nations at war, general strife, starvation, plagues...
In the 1700s, we had nations at war, general strife, starvation, plagues...
In the 1800s, we had nations at war, general strife, starvation, plagues...
In the 1900s, we had nations at war, general strife, starvation, plagues...
In the 2012, we have nations at war, general strife, starvation, plagues...

There were and are many great things to rejoice about I suppose, but do you see the pattern? I doubt anything short of an extinction will give us that suffiecient kick in the pants you mentioned to change the natural course of things.

It must be the way my mind works, but I havent really noticed an NPC in years and this sort of puts me in mind of the thread awhile back where people were complaining about the new, ugly coins over contact's heads.

Even though I dontnotice these things, Id be game for a new game engine whenever...itll just add to the epicness of everything we have already.

I enjoy PvP in this game and others but Im just a casual zone PvPer versus some of the real, head in the game mechanics, die hard types. Having said that, the real PvPers have been making suggestions to the devs for years and while I cant see the Dev's big picture/project assignments...it doesnt appear they have shown much, if any interest in improving the PvP aspect of CoX or even in the PvP community's opinions. I know, I know....like .01% of the game actually PvPs so why bother building on it? Ive heard it before and I got it.

People usually have a very negative view of any PvP community (and with good reason, they tend to attract a certain type of player...not sure if its the immature, elitists or just general aholes) but there are a lot of solid/mature players that PvP who have documented issues, problems and overall gaming inconsistencies and spoken to the Devs about these items. You can find posts that have been stickied in the PvP section going back 5-6 years and even with that, not much has been done to address PvP.

So just like many people get tired of trying to help someone who doesnt seem interested in improving themselves, many of the real PvPers have given up with trying to make things better here and most dont even play the game anymore.

I applaud you for trying to get something going with this post, but others before you have done the same for years with minimum results.
Basically what Lothic said, "dont get your hopes up".
It is what it is.

I really enjoy Community, but I think it just has a niche following. Basically what Father Xmas said above.
I felt the same way about...


*Arrested Development*
Since debuting on November 2, 2003, the series has earned six Emmy awards, one Golden Globe, widespread critical acclaim and attracted a cult following, including several fan-based websites. In 2007 it was listed as one of Time magazine's "100 Best TV Shows of All-TIME."

Despite the approval from critics, Arrested Development never climbed in the ratings. Fox aired the final four episodes of the third season in a block as a two-hour series finale on February 10, 2006, opposite the opening ceremonies of the 2006 Winter Olympics (which was being broadcast on NBC).


Bad things happen to good people (take out the word people and add in 'shows').

"Pop Pop!"
You Community fans know what Im saying...

I like the final look, the WW costume turned out pretty nice (at least from the knees up)...as did Erica Durance.

Before big boss fights...like a boss.

In PvP zones...like a boss.

When friends are trying to hit me with snowballs...like a boss.

I thought CoH 2.0 was that other superhero MMO (y'know, the goofy looking one)...which means we're due for CoH 3.0.

We do not want to read merry forum stories about your kids having a great holiday full of cheer and new toys.
Please keep your priorities straight and get back to the things that are important to us.
If I can ship my small children off to military school where they got to spend the holidays learning how to assemble their weapons and how to properly do a pushup...then so can you.

So whats new?
HNY!

Is "heavy fighting action" code for heavy foreplay? haHAA

The release of Star Wars: The Old Republic.

Basically what Ace said. At 50, I throw them down when fighting a mob...they scatter and I can keep wailing on the selected target. Im sure there are a host of creative ways to use them, but thats basically how I deploy them.

I havent ventured that deep into the mechanics of it, but the power takes procs also.

In mother Russia, you dont watch the Avengers...the Avengers watch you.

Thanks for the clip...really looking forward to the real deal Holyfield.

It was only a small part back in '08, but Cruise portrayed the **** out of that loud mouthed, crazy Les Grossman character in Tropic Thunder (thanks for reminding me ebon3). Crazy or not...he can still do his thing.

I dont think every actor in Hollywood is a lunatic, but I would think that its probably not easy to stay grounded and be able to relate to 'normal', salt of the earth folks if youve been a famous celebrity for 30+ years and have multiple bank accounts overflowing with money.

Other than that Oprah incident (still dont understand that nonsense lol), most of the negative attention Cruise has brought upon himself is linked with his strong views of his religion (comments made about postpartum depression and psychiatry etc). Im not the religious type...none of its my cup of tea but whether you believe in alien saviors, the flying Spaghetti Monster or a Jewish carpenter, I say more power to you. Just try not to go over the top with the preaching and dont hurt anyone in the process of expressing your beliefs.

To our friend Tom, keep cranking out those Les Grossman characters...you cant go wrong with that formula (and Im going to see GP this week).

Having loose bowel syndrome and no toilet paper while the toilet is backing up with your buttcheeks crazy glued to the toilet seat and the water's been turned off, plus the fact that all you've been eating for the last two days is chili, and finding out that if you don't answer the phone you will lose a prize giveaway of $50,000.

You dropped the phone in the toilet by accident.

Shhhhhh!

If it happens, a bunch of grown men type heroes/villains will be rolling around in My Little Pony Mobiles (Kioshi ).

Mauk & SM...HNY and thanks a lot for taking a look at the post and helping out with advice/builds. This is my second melee toon ever outside of a farmer to make it to 50, so just trying to grasp the make of it. I will be at work today/tonight and will go over everything you guys have pointed out.

Thanks again.

Any Scrapper pros out there?
The life of this toon depends on your expertise.
Dont let him down.
