    The real problem with leechxecutives, btw, is when they start to believe their own hype - when they think actually have talent and know how to do stuff like,say,produce. People like them can gobble up vast tranches of investor cash, drive talent insane and sink entire franchises and studios. Which is why it's vitally important to research who you're dealing with first. Or just shoot any producer who you don't recognise on sight.
    Yeah, I figured you had actual contact with them since you were so familiar with their MO.

    Having worked in corporate and entertainment I can tell you corporate execs are very very much the same soul less bastards.
  2. There are way too many leaps in logic in that post....WAY too many.

    The bottom line is nobody else should have the power over how "other" people can use their powers period.

Times you have testified in court regarding that subject matter. The names of those trials. Any publishing you might have regarding that subject matter. Any public speaking you have done again related to that subject matter. The C.V. can also contain other fields of study you might have been deemed an expert in.

    Where as a Resume is a bit more personal and geared to getting employment.

    Yep I derailed this thread.
    A worthy derailing IMHO. Some Americans are well read and not as dumb as the typical stereotype might indicate.

    The irony of this line is delicious.
  5. They need to just unleash the Kraken and sell them all on the market now.
  6. We get a few maps, some of the new enemy groups and Dark Assault. Clearly they are way behind in the powersets and will continue to be after this update. Brilliant Paragon... just bloody brilliant.

    I don't see how firing the creator so you can turn it into some other, different, hopefully more popular show is a better idea than just canceling it and running an actual other (hopefully more popular) show.

    It's not like every square inch of Hollywood is carpeted with desperate creatives pimping ideas for teevee shows, or anything....
    They have to pay off the debt/favor to the new people taking over now letting them get some paychecks in before all the wheels fall off. Pretty much SOP for Hollywood.

    You tube is full of people doing these things. Might want to pop one up of your fire cave farming run so that people may see those numbers and letters operate under real conditions.

    There you go again making things up. I never protested about what you are describing. You need to go to "any" post I have ever made to back up your claims about my position or just STFU already.....Seriously stop making stuff up man it is STUPID!!!!

    You also need to get off the logic deal since you left that train many moons ago.

Can't you just leave it alone? A lot of people are pretty stoked about this. I just wish the Knockback Brigade would leave it alone for once.
    You need to stop making up things to be mad about mate, me being happy they did not cave to some that wanted to fundamentally change the PB is just as valid in this thread as any other post. Don't be silly.

    Just go back and read the posts man. I was talking to EG and then you jumped in and made a bunch of stuff up and tried to pin it on me like I said it and then got mad at what you made up.

    That's one perspective. Not one I share but I understand. I am not against it, but I will always remain against those that have tried since I came in I8 to fundamentally change the PB to something other than what it is.
    Nobody was singled out as the one's trying to fundamentally change the PB so I have no idea how you got all personally offended like I was talking to or about you.

    As I have stated many times before, you need to make those arguments directly to the devs and stop trying to take out your anger on fellow players that have a different perspective.

    It had something to do with the discussion, just not what you wanted it to so it could leave an opening for you to argue and start a fight.

    I think the only time this reaches this level is when you misunderstand something you think I said.
  17. The same fundamental change I have always referred too, changing all of the PB's powers to KD instead of KB.

    I think if you settle down a bit and re-read what I wrote you would recognize I was never talking about the proc being the fundamental change.

    I was also going to do a new respec

    But if we have a new power or 2 to chose from i will wait
    If not then i will respec sooner

    So anyone have any more specific rumors?
    Form shifts are instant from human form now that is all as stated. The other deal is just the normal inaccuracy of the rumor mill.

    Nunchucks

    Along with Staff fighting this is my most desired fighting set for this game since I started in I8.

    NO I didn't and if you misunderstood that...no worries but just know that is not what I was talking about when I was talking fundamental change it had NOTHING to do with the proc and never has since that thing is brand new and my position is years old.

This all leads to MORE INCOMING DAMAGE, so the "nerfing mitigation" argument has no legs to stand on at all.
    I think you mistake my posts for some opening to rehash superfluous positions of the past...they are not since I have not and will not argue those things that really don't matter in any way I can think of discussing.
