This most certainly is happening and I most certainly will be happy to take your donation to double the prizes. :-)

This is probably the most polite post I have seen from you and I personally appreciate that immensely.

I do want to correct one thing though. PVPEC has never been contacted by you with an offer for extra funds. I am the only Champion rep and the leader of the Organization overall and have been the only Champion rep for a very long time. You have never approached me or any other Officer/member offering extra prizes. I accept extra prizes all the time from various members/leaders of Champion and would be more than happy to accept your funds.

As far as PERC, I don't know about the Champion reps. I retired from being Officer of PERC and am not a full time rep now. I am what they call a consultant which means I just sit around and look cool and offer advice or help as needed. I however do still run most of my pve events in the PERC name and am also happy to accept any funds you want to donate for those as well.

Of course the stipulation if you really did want to donate funds is that AOW's name would not be associated with the events at all. I do not run events in SG name's and never will. My events are for the community with no hidden agenda or attempt to gain popularity for any SG, including my own.

So if your offer is sincere in wanting to help fund PVPEC or PERC events you know where to find me. As I stated MANY Championites have donated before, more dollarz is more dollarz.

This is tonight!

Here is my question for you...why should I have to do that? In fact why should any one? When I think of people on this server who are "community helpers", "community organizers", people that verbally advertise themselves as open to teaming and helping.....guess what? I have teamed with them all at some point in time. Not them seeking me out, or me seeking them out but just a natural thing that happens.

If I sit up and think of everyone I have teamed with in over 4 years of COH (outside of my own SG of course), one of the best gamers, and friendliest people to team with is probably Amy. She has incredible knowledge of the game and has a lot to offer any team. Funny thing is that I don't feel priveledged to team with her. I don't fell like OMG I am so lucky for her to grace me with her presence. She doesn't come across that way. At any given time I can look at my global and see she isn't on a team and ask her to join me and if she isn't busy, she does. And visa Versa. We aren't buddies, or extremely close. We both have our own circle of friends and SG. I don't feel like I need to kiss her *** or suck up to her to team with her. I don't have to be "nice" to engage her in a conversation. She is just a human being just like me.

Those are the kind of people I want to team with and game with. If I have to blow your head up wth compliments and listen to you ******** me about how incredible of a gamer you are and how much you do for the community I might as well just go solo. I certainly don't want someone with less time than me in a video game, less level 50's, less experience etc making me feel like I should be lucky to be blessed with their presence and gaming knowledge. Sorry there is nothing s3xy about that picture.

This part makes me laugh only because if I remember correctly most of us have been deemed unworthy to even be on a team with her, more less join her SG.

I am personally a bit curious Dave why you keep defending her? Not that I personally have a problem with it, I am just curious. I seem to remember not long ago you were pretty peeved at her. Peeved enough to wash yours and hers, and AOW's dirty laundry in public somewhat.

I don't believe I have seen one person say AOW is a bad SG. Some, like myself, think the SG could make a better decision than to continue to let her represent them in the way that she does. That just means they are not picky nor do they care about what people think about them. Not necessarily a bad thing I suppose.

YOu know I see her talk in the UHB channel all the time and she seems so super nice and friendly. I have never seen her talk in there like she does here. NO condescending tones or putdowns. I can assume she is probably generally a nice person who doesn't have the social skills necessary to be able to take criticism in any way. As long as no one is challenging her or expressing their dislike or disagreement for one of her ideas she is cool. That however is not enough to get through life.

Actually its not just that she doesn't take criticism well because I have seen her hop in to threads that had nothing to do with her and just blow some ******** out of her mouth that was rude and condescending and no one had said a single word to or about her.

Sadly for AOW, as long as they allow her to represent them in the way that they do then they get the reputation of being known as the SG that the psycho-whateverpeoplecallher chick is leader of. Just like I am sure my SG is known as the SG with thelongwindedwitchEventplannerchick runs. Pingus are known as the meanfuc-ktard runs them SG. EG is known as the "awesome hami guy" runs them SG. PON is known as the WhineyBeer guy SG. Intranet forums are not an exception to real life realities. People are judged by the company that they keep. Whether its fair or not, its a reality.

Its human nature? Why would someone jump someone elses case for rudely commenting to the same person they are irritated at? That is in RL and on the forums. If you aggree with the jist of what I am saying, but not necessarily with how I say it, why would you feel the need to jump my case?

There is a scale here that you are apparently not seeing. I will use myself as an example. I can be a real *****. There are plenty of people that don't care for me on the forums. However, overall, I have always tried to help Champion and my fellow gamers. So I get a little leeway.

Does that mean I am a celebrity or better than Felicia, no. What that means is I have earned some respect and if every now and then I get caddy or bitchy the majority will let it slide by.

Then you might have someone like Cobalt. Everyone knows he is a rude *** at times. Hell he knows it. However overall he has done a lot of good for the server and helped out a lot of people.

Felecia? Not so much. She talks as if she has done a lot, but hasn't. She is condescending 99% of the time. She hasn't earned any free passes to be a *****. Perhaps the one or 2 passes she has earned was spent many, many posts ago.

Its not about being a celebrity or a double standard. Its about real life, people get respect that have earned it. People get a swift kick in the *** that have earned it.

Actually, while I get your point. You are wrong. They knowingly allow her to represent them and sling the AOW name around with all the other BS she is slinging.

I "WISH" one of my Officers said 1/1000th of the stuff she has said in a public forum representing the SG. The kick button would ***** slap them all the way to WOWland. We all have the right to be a ***** or ******* when we want to. Hell I have my "special" moments as well. However when you run events in your SG's name, have forum threads in your SG's name and speak on behalf of your SG it reflects on the SG. An SG may not be able to stop people from doing what they want to, however if they continue to let them act that way and continue to be a member and officer representing that SG then they are just as equally entitled to be grouped up in the **** pot of stench.

O really? I knew there was a reason we kept you around. It's not just your charming personality that we need. :-)

An HO'd build is also better than a typical Frankenslotting build as well, depending on what you are trying to do with it.

For example a Gladiator's Javelin ( and every other one) Acc/ Dam is 26.5/26.5, where a Nucleous is 33.3/33.3. That is a pretty significant difference in values.

I think actually the best builds are ones that have a little bit of everything. Set's, HO's, IO's and some frankenslotting.

Actually how many powers do you only need to enhance one thing that single IO values would be better? Hasten? A few other powers.

Most powers require more than one thing to be enhanced. Acc/dam, Acc/Mez, Travel/end reduct etc.

So yeah I still say lolwut to basic Io's typically being better than Ho's. Only in a few powers would that be true.

lol wut?

The committee plans an event and the reps from each server run that exact same planned event on their server during the month.

First of all I am not a guy. Second of all no orders are given, server reps are allowed to run ANY type of pvp event they so choose to. Third of all I run multiple events on Champion for BOTH hardcore and new pvprs. I suppose I should use the method of every event being exactly the same and boring however being that no TP event had the biggest turnout I have seen in a while on Champion I will stick with the more creative method.

You should put your creative input to better use and join the PVPEC and help plan events. :-)

My guess would be the kind that doesn't want a solo stalker to steal 1st place from them?

All it really takes is a few simple things.

• Wanting to provide good quality events for your server.
• Wanting to promote pvp in a positive way.
• The ability it run atleast 1 event per month.
• The ability to help out on our forums with constructive ideas for others events that are being planned.

It really isn't a hard job at all. PVP events are way easier to plan than pve events IMHO.

So many people are moving to other servers to pvp because there isn't enough organized pvp on their own servers. If the community knows there are events that are organized and scheduled they will show up.

All the more reason for you to join the PVPEC. With regular monthly events being planned on the server there eventually would be more pvp on the server.

I represent Champion and most of us have moved toons to Freedom as well. Everyone still has toons on the server though and they still show up for the events. :-)

P.M. Sent!


Trying to do something positive with what you have to work with to make others gaming experience better is never pointless. Dwelling on stuff you cannot change or impact is where the "pointless" comes in. :-)

Anytime you need help with an event just let me know.

Send me a p.m. if you were not joking. It requires running atleast one event per month and promoting pvp in a postive way. If you are up for the job just give me a holla.

For the cross server events NCSOFT usually gives us prizes. For our own individual server events it comes out of our own pockets and occassionally you can get NCSOFT to donate a costume code or gold title.

I plan on running them so that people who have never done them can enjoy them. Taking shortcuts is fine. For example tp'n to boss when its not a clear all. However lets not try to make a 2 hour TF over in 20 mins and rush people so bad they don't get any enjoyment out of it. :-)

As far as LRSF, that will be a seperate event that will be a race and have a prize at the end some time probably next month or so after these are finished.
