I might just do that and tell them MY experience.

yea I think it was needed, so that it was absolutely clear as it seems that when make a post, first thing someone do is find the tiniest mistake, find a misspelling, ignore the entire subject and say I'm wrong for what ever reason, or ignore the entire point and find one little half of a sentence and make it into something it was not. or saying it was too long to read. So yeah, instead of writing about it later, I went on ahead and wrote it up front. That means if anyone does any of the above it's no question at all that it's not just a form of miscommunication, misunderstanding, or they just didnt know, but just a mere blantant attempt at being nothing more but a troll looking for trouble. And given the amount of the percentage that I make a post and one of the above happens is way too high, so I maybe it was that they didnt know. Now they do, no more excuses now. All new threads by me will have the first disclaimer and warning from now on.

The costumes matched what I was going for there as a fallen angel themes character. The look of the stereotypical angel in many ways but as evil yet not evil as it can, and righteous but not righteous at it can get. She is one that is trying to get her own kingdom and rather upsurp both the heavens and the underworld and rule them both than follow either one of those pricks.

When it especially comes to military stuff, usually a lot of inaccuracies in the TV shows and movies.

Disclaimer: This post is long, AGAIN THIS POST IS LONG! If a person don’t have time to read it, that is fine, come back later when you do have the time and it's ok if you don’t read the post at all because you don't have the time. Yes, there may or may not be spelling and grammar mistakes, just like any other thread on this forum. I know that, no point in pointing them out. The format of this post is single spaced sentences with an extra space between paragraphs. I'm not a mind reader and don’t know everyone's format preference but if it the point is not clear, just ask in a respectful manner or don’t worry about it. If this format is not for you, this may be a good time to stop reading as the rest will be a waste of your time and at this point is not responsible if you choose to continue and waste your time. There are not many questions in this post; this is not a post about help. Help is really not needed here but if you insist on offering it and it is turned down, don’t get rude. Once again, I am not responsible if you decide to not heed this and feel like you wasted your time trying to be "helpful" anyways. I'm not trying to be rude for turning down your help, but really, none is needed here. Criticism, negative criticism, or "constructive criticism" that isn’t actually constructive, is not needed here. Apparently I have a hard time distinguishing between people trying to be "helpful" and people who are not here as some "helpful" people have ways of showing it that I find odd. So let’s do each other favor and just let it be. Just post your version about how you would play and keep to the topic. Lastly, this is my experience and my view, if your view is different, that is cool too, do tell, but please be respectful. The point of all this is so people now knows what they are getting into. If this is fine, continue reading. If not, it would be best to move on to another thread. Of course this is free country and you are free to do what you want, just keep in mind, so am I and that alone is enough reason for this post. Not trying to be rude at all, just letting people know exactly what they are getting into. For those that don’t know or don’t see the point of this introduction, this is to prevent any problems from past threads to carrying over to here and to keep things [b]strictly on the subject[b] at hand. If all of this is ok, read on and have fun. If you have anything to add about your experience with electric armor, by all means share. This is my Electric Armor build that fit my play style which may or may not be fitting for everyone else's play style thus I'm making not and guarantee, assumptions, vouching, or suggesting that my way is the way to build the Electric Armor nor am I insinuating, suggesting, or trying to prove that my opinions are fact. They are just my opinion and if your opinion differs, that is good too. Please share your version here but try to be respectful of my opinion and others as you would want them to respect yours.

This disclaimer is not to cause problems, flame, troll, and excite a riot or anything. It is to just clarify things so things will not be misconstrued, misinterpreted, misquoted, or wasting anyone time because they didn’t know what they was getting into. That is all, nothing more nothing less, no disrespect intended, just trying to prevent repeat negative actions on threads from happening.

Remember words on the screen are words on the screen. There are no physical social queues, tone of voice, nor other things that can be picked up in face to face contact. While it is best to not direct anything personal at me, or probably anyone else for that matter, keep in mind how the words can be interpreted by just reading. Let's not make a big deal out of nothing, again. Remember everyone is not the same nor will perceive messages and words on the screen the exact same way as you may have intended them to come out in your head. Reason for this disclaimer is to prevent the same things that have been happening in the past from re-occurring and that is all. Remember, as mentioned before, this is not to be rude at all.

I just don’t want anyone feel like their time is being wasted, or feel they was blindly lead into a long post, or got the wrong assumption. On the same token, I'm not responsible for your time you feel you wasted, or offer help and feel dejected for it being turned down as I'm politely turning it down and all "help", "constructive criticism", "suggestions" right now. "Thank you for your concern and trying to help but I have the build and any other build the way I have found that I have the most fun with playing in the manner that I find the most enjoyable for my experience." Any help on a personal basis is turned down also in a polite manner also- "Thanks for your concern and trying to help but I think your help would be more helpful on someone else who is probably itching for that type for information you have available to share. Thanks for understanding." If you choose to not heed this information, then all I have to go by is what you write and what I perceive, which may be right or may be wrong but I'm leaving nothing to chance this time. If I missed something, it will be added to the next thread.

!!WARNING!!-This is my experience and going through the thoughts of the time I spent in the game. This is not in any manner, way or fashion is trying to insinuate, suggest, tell, or demand that others should have same experience. This is neither a right nor wrong situation and thus everyone may not have the same experience as I have and thus I can only speak on mine and my time I spent in the game. There is no expectation to agree with anything here or meant to incite anything or hinder efforts, put anyone down, bring down hope, or anything. This may or may not be in the lines of the hopeful way of thinking. THIS MAY OR MAY NOT BE IN THE LINE OF HOPEFUL THINKING! Making sure I said it twice just in case it got missed so that no one has to go out of their way to point that out or feel like this was pushed upon them. This way of thinking may or may not be in line with anyone or everyone's view and way of thinking. This is a fair warning. So if that is ok and can handle something that truly may not be anywhere on the same tangent of your way of thinking or view, then read on. If not, YOU ENTER AND READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!WARNING!! However you respond I'm more than likely will respond in kind. Attack me I'll attack you. Nitpick me, I'll nitpick you and so on. So we can actually discuss thing like adults for once, or go to the same thing as usual but you can never say it was forced upon you and stuff. You chose to come here, you chose to either read or not read heed or not heed the warning and that's on you. And yes I realize there may be misspelling mistakes, grammar errors and stuff so no need to point that out unless you never ever made a mistake of grammar/misspell in your entire life so pointing it out can only be taken as a blatant attempt to troll and will be responded to in kind. I rather not make a big deal over little things but if a person chose to try to pick something and make a big out of it, then I will respond in kind, fair warning. Many things have been said twice or more so that NO ONE can somehow miss it unless they just chose not to read it or take it. !!WARNING!!

2006 was a good year for me. I was still working my up in my job field, my husband was doing well in his field, and there was this game that I bought a year ago sitting the on the shelf. All other games that were bought and not played within two weeks stayed in the box on the shelf. That is, except this game. The money that was paid to buy it was long written off about two days after I bought it, something about the description on the box that kept nagging at my curiosity. Up to this point I have yet to try any MMOs, and yet to try a super hero themed game. So one day I just decided to install it. January 2006 it was and after two days of playing, people in the game kept talking about a villain side of the house, so I went and bought COV too. Started on the Victory server at first, when PVP still existed there, the players were friendly even in the PVP zone, and the game was good. After getting the first hero (AR/Fire blaster) to level 25, I decided to try the villain side. I found out I liked being a villain a lot better and thus the blaster became a side show while the dark/dark corruptor rose in level quickly solo. Yet, I did occasionally teamed up with some old friends that I met up on hero side and had some PVP fun. If one side got thin, a couple of us would switch to the less populated side to keep the fights going. Fun times. Eventually the corruptor hit the level 40 cap (the level cap for villains at the time) and was put on the shelf while I traveled over to Liberty to make the first brute while at the same time making the first scrapper. Both reached 50 about the same time becoming the first level 50 hero and villain.

Then the warshade was born. The Warshade shared time between it and the old corruptor until both hit 50 within days of each other, the Warshade hitting 50 first. Then after that didn’t play so much with occasional play on the blaster until it hit 35 then it was shelved again. Then the Stalker and the electric/electric brute and energy melee/stone brute came into existence. The stalker was fun and dabbled in PVP but by this time on Victory, the population started to wane. The Elect/electric brute was the pioneer for the stable for Freedom server. Although PVP has not decreased to near non-existence on Freedom at this time, so the elect/electric brute dabbled in it up to level 25 and then was shelved to work on the stoner brute back over on Victory. Teaming at this time, especially with the time difference of Germany, was rare and hard to come by so it was a solo effort. Actually the stone brute rolled through the levels like butter. Once the stalker and stoner got to 50, it was back over to Freedom to finish up the electric/electric brute until it hit 50 and then it was transferred over to virtue to join the newly created BS/regen scrapper, the WP/DB tanker, and the SS/WP brute. These three was probably the most fun to level to 50 solo overall and did it so quick solo that quite frankly, it was a blur and they all was shelved after hitting. Then it was back to Virtue and two MMS and on Dominator was created. The Merc/dark MM hit 50 very well and then the Dominator who hit 50 and then got transferred to Freedom but the other MM, the Thug/FF went to back burner for the moment as a new trio of toons was created.

The toons that were the new trio, toons that had no ties what so ever to the prior creations were a WP/WM tank, which was a very fun ride from level 1-50, an earth/fire dom which was also fun and very sturdy for a squishy, and a SoA, which was interesting to play after level 26. Then there were three more a Demon/Thermal MM, one of my favorite concepts and costumes that fit the character like a glove, a shields/WM that was good concept but meh to play over all after playing the WP/WM, and an illusion/storm controller. After playing these there was another break for a few months and then came back with a wide range of characters that I barely remember, then one of the best sets of toons I found most enjoyable to play in a while was created; the electric/Staff Tank, the SS/WP tank and once that toon got to 40, it was followed up with a Fire/WM tank, which made me wonder why I didn’t create a fire tank a while ago. When all but the fire tank got to 50, then it was a focus on iTrial stuff again in full force. The electric/electric brute was the first one to get the alpha slot out of the stable the second day that incarnate materials went live. In the meantime while the rest of the incarnate content was being released, the fire/tank got to 50, a TW/Regen was created and got to 50 and few more toons were created. Then the electric/electric tank got into the incarnate stuff, with the SS/Regen brute and TW/Regen brute and all got to the various levels until I felt there was nothing more for them to do or had use for anymore and all was put on the shelf with the focus going back to the up and coming characters, like the Fire/WM tank, very powerful stuff; the dark melee/wp brute, also good stuff; the MA/Invul tanker, cool stuff; and the electric/energy melee tank, which is also a cool set to play with solo like the rest.

At this point, most of the character’s storylines have ended. A few, especially the new ones didn’t end yet until the famous announcement was made and then that is when I came up with few endings for the newer level 50s. A few of the character's storylines will not end until Nov. 30th. After that day, all of that from 2006 until Nov. 30th 2012 will be a memory. At first it will be fresh, then it will be distant and probably by the time 2013 roll in, I probably won’t remember any of them but it was some good years playing most of those builds and the ones that have not been mentioned but if the story never comes to an end, the journey cannot be appreciated.

This not bad idea actually.

As far as rules goes, probably the standard outline of rules would work BUT they must be clear concise and most importantly enforced and enforced fairly and evenly at all times.
If it says, for example, off topic post that is not relevant to the thread is not allowed, then off topic posts that are not relevant to the thread should not be allowed. Or if it says no attacking other posters, then attacking other posters should not be allowed by anyone in any fashion regardless of their post count and or other factors.

If it's a mad house, I probably won’t. If there some semblance of civilization, then I'll join in.

One thing I wished I got out of the forum is more enforcement of the rules. Some days they enforce them some days they ignore them then they enforce them again, then they ignore them. It kind of made the rules a bit meaningless. Then again, it might have stemmed from that the rules were too vague. It says no trolling but maybe it should point out exactly what is constituted as trolling, attacking another player, insulting another poster compared to leaving a very large gray area.

I do like the topics and ideas but would be nice if some actual deep topics can go beyond a page without someone coming in a throwing it off and the mods not doing a thing about it until 10-15 pages later, if ever.

People tend to follow only rules that are enforced.

The way this forum is broken down into sections is nice.


Just my view and thought on the subject.

That cool but what happens if something "breaks" while on the road?

"What happened?"

"Well I was sleep on my way to the club and all of a sudden I ended up here."

"Well son, I hate to break it to you, but you are dead. The automatic control in your car went hey wire, took a left turn into on coming traffic and you got smashed by a Peterbilt."

"Is my family suing the car maker?"

"The car maker will claim it's driver's error and grease few hands and the case will get thrown out and your property will be auctioned to pay for the damage to the truck and claimed injury to the driver to a tune of 3 million. Your auto insurance says they are not liable to pay anything since technically you was not the driver. $5 will go to buffing out the damage that you did to the truck, the rest to the driver. Well anyways, welcome to the afterlife, have fun. I have to attend to another soul that met their end from a malfunction of the autodrive device."
