We "deserve" more?

Really?

Why?

We just GOT a new FREE issue, there will be another later this summer (i16) along with a paid bonus pack and likely late this year or early next year Going Rogue.

... Deserve? Since when?

We've gotten huge amounts of things that we've been asking for, and most recently being added to that list are the POWER CUSTOMIZATION and CHARACTER BUILD CHANGES .... so... yeah, what?

OK, so what's the suggestion or idea?

"More stuff?"

Well, congrats, Issue 15 is here, issue 16 is coming, with more issues after that. There's another expansion and another "theme pack" coming, with at least two others (one per origin) also planned.

So the point of this rant was... what, exactly? And why was it here?

[/ QUOTE ]

These.

Double XP Save The Date

Save The Date - Next Double XP Weekend July 31st- August 2nd!

We know you've been waiting to hear so that you can meticulously craft your plan of attack! So go ahead - take off work, ignore all of your other responsibilities and stock up on easily grab-able snacks and beverages - we won't tell anyone! Just make sure to save the date because the next City of Heroes® Double XP weekend will begin Friday, July 31st 2009, at 8:59am PST (11:59am EST) and concludes Sunday, August 2nd 2009, 8:59pm PST (11:59pm EST). Don't miss out!

[/ QUOTE ]

Oh boy . . . Once again we get to watch people whine and complain that the game sucks because they can't log onto Freedom.

Anyone with half a brain is going to have some alts ready on other servers just in case.

And with the AE they don't even have the excuse that they don't have any high level characters on other servers.

That will be a fun weekend to watch the forums.

[ QUOTE ]
Pfffft hahahaha.

Ohhh god no.

There are people who have played since beta and don't have a 50 because they are the lovely hybrid of casual and alt lovers.

Personally I think it would be impossible to look at a car, be completely untrained on how to shoot a firearm and still miss it after pointing the barrel at it and pulling the trigger.

[/ QUOTE ]

And your conclusion is wrong.

I wish I could articulate how I feel after reading your story Freem, but I can't think of anything and I'm so very very sorry doesn't begin to scratch the surface.

[ QUOTE ]
I could see extending the cutoff time a little, like just over 2 months, but not much more. If it's a decent supergroup, it needs a leader. If that leader was absent for six months, he should forfeit the position of leader. Yes, life can throw you curveballs, but it goes on despite what happens to you, and the supergroup should be able to go on too.

[/ QUOTE ]

I can agree to that, I always thought 45 days was an odd number. Rounding it up to 2 months/60 days makes sense.

[ QUOTE ]
Somehow I doubt anyone read my post and thought to themselves, "Now there's a new rule, I wonder how it got buried pages deep in a player's discussion?"

[/ QUOTE ]

No, but we have been laughing at you.

[ QUOTE ]
Oh, and Mister Pot? Yes, you are right; that kettle is indeed black. We noticed.

[/ QUOTE ]

My pots aren't black, they are silver. I think they are made from stainless steel.

[ QUOTE ]
Too late, I called it first. But don't worry, everyone can still post in it(at least for now). I'm just letting yall know that it belongs to me now.

[/ QUOTE ]

MunkiLord's claim is valid according to the International Dibs Protocol and No Take Backs Accord.

This thread belongs to him.

But I call next.

Were a poll to go out, I think you'd be surprised how many people on the forums identify as something other than a vanilla heterosexual.

Just kidding! Just kidding!

3. Forbin, gotta disagree with you on that one. Enhancements are our items, and most of them are definitely more than "for show and vanity". HOs, set enhancements, purples especially...definitely not vanity loot.

[/ QUOTE ]

I understand why people might share that point of view, but I don't consider enhancements items because unless we use a respec they are effectively permanent attachments, and they don't affect our characters appearance in any way.

In other games items once given to a character change the appearance of the character either by what it is wearing or by what it is carrying.

Now we do have recipes that change character appearance and give characters powers but those items can't be swapped between characters once attached.

1. This game has never been about endgame content. Yes we have some but it's more about the journey.

2. Yes.

3. We don't have items.

4. Yes

5. This game was never designed around PvP. It was an add on feature. That's why it never meshed well.

All he said was that the zones are empty except for people running AE missions.

We'll miss you, but enjoy your time off.

[ QUOTE ]
What you are proposing is that people be allowed to come in after all the work is done and yank it from under him/her?

[/ QUOTE ]

Seems to me that is what you and the OP are proposing.

Some guy founds an SG, recruits some people, and disappears without a word, leaving everyone else working hard to build the SG into something to be proud of. Then the founder returns 6 months later and demands that the SG be handed over to him.

Sounds a lot like those people that join a TF then log off until the last mission then return expecting to get rewarded.

We only heard the OP's side of the story, of course he's going to paint a picture that shows him as the victim. He didn't even provide any screenshots of his SG roster so we could judge for ourselves how much he contributed to the SG.

For all we know we might have seen that there was an influx of new members after he quit and they earned most of the prestige.

If you can't handle people pointing out the obvious flaws in your idea then you should refrain from posting.

You are mistaken. The VERY FIRST WORD is "Notwithstanding".

That means that the fair use situation is applicable "without being opposed or prevented by" the provisions in the copyright law. Fair use takes PRECEDENCE. It defines EXCEPTIONS that get to 'ignore' copyright law.

...also my brother in-law is gay and does drag shows.

[/ QUOTE ]

That explains a lot. He says acts out here because his brother-in-law would beat the crap out of him for doing at at home... while wearing a dress.

[/ QUOTE ]

Wait, his brother-in-law is gay?

So is his sister married to an openly gay man, or is his brother gay as well?

[/ QUOTE ]

If he's married then his wife's brother could be gay?

-Rachel-

[/ QUOTE ]

That would imply that he's of marriage age, which I strongly doubt.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think this song will clear up any questions we have.

This is yours, Forbin.

Thank you.

I'll treasure this award always . . . and I'd like to thank all the little people I've stepped on over the years who made this night possible.
