I had unsubbed because I was busy with RL stuff. (When you get to be my age, you have to start doing things like fly across country to take care of your elderly in-laws and make arrangements with lawyers and stuff.) I couldn't devote time to the game, or any game, really. The only game I've played this year was Mass Effect 3, and that was a terrible experience. Once my summer settled down I re-upped to CoH. (And have apparently lost all the money I paid a few weeks ago. Well, that's what lawyers are for.)

But, but... you posted an Adele song.

I kid, I kid.
This is cheesy, and potentially ruined because of the misappropriation by NBC for the Olympics (a real "What The Pancake?" idea), but Paragon City was my home away from home for so long.

Banhammer imminent!
Thank god some things never change. -

Well, crap. -
I can't find a picture of my first character (Cuke Nukem, who still exists on Guardian, which use to be the original beta server), but here's my first 50, Photon X (the one in front).
A screenshot from the beta character creator. Before I knew how to make an attractive character.
Ironik wasn't my first character, but he was one of the earliest and only one of three who survived the transition from beta to live. Along with Cuke Nukem and Ironik, my other earliest character was Starina. She was transferred over to Virtue, my first character there.

Apparently Cracked reads these forums: 6 Terrifying Spiders That Will Haunt Your Dreams.
A parting gift to Claws and Effect, and an apology to Traegus. -
Mostly I just play TF2. My handle on steam is the same as on Deviant Art: Dash McCool.

Quote:They're also getting phished pretty hard. I mean, I tried the first Guild Wars out in its beta and then again during a free trial period, and even my email has phishing emails in it. That's borked.I don't know about "very good chance," but at least looking in from the outside it does seem a bit that way.
For those of you know don't know, GW2 just announced that they are suspending digital sales because they've run out of room on the current servers and don't have any place to put more folks.
So yeah, I'm putting some of the heat on them for this. -
I reiterate: Don't do anything crazy.
Did not know about the stroke, Father X; I hope you recover fully. (If Crocodile Dundee can do it, you can, too.)
Also, Olive Garden? I speak for every Italian in the world when I say, "Eww." That's Russian roulette, bro. -
This is a good wake.
Props to Claws and Effect, even if he does have a creepy-*** hobby that terrifies me to my very soul. -
Quote:You have good parents.True, that. It's just that CoH got me friends that gave me a reason to fight my panic attacks so I could travel to see them. It's done so much for me and given me wonderful friends and been there during tough times.
I dragged Mum and Dad all over the UK at times to various conventions. They'd go Christmas shopping as it was November while I was at Memorabillia in Birmingham, we'd stay in a B&B, they'd pick me up at the end of the day and we'd go home the next day.
I remember coming back from Bristol Comic Expo in May 2006, having met up with all my friends, and had dinner with them and the EU Community team member Bridger, and getting flummoxed by weekend Underground service changes on my way through the city. A quick call home and Dad guided me across London, making it to the train with seconds to spare. -

I'll tell you what kind of guy Bill Z Bubba is: I was showing a new CoH recruit around Pinnacle and he didn't know it was me, but he stopped and lent a hand and even gave her a bunch of Inf which my lowbie alt couldn't do.
That right there exemplifies CoH's community to me. -
Quote:Read and write on..?My daughter, now 16, is raving inarticulately in the kitchen .. "I GREW UP WITH THIS GAME! I'VE BEEN PLAYING THIS GAME SINCE I WAS 7!! WHAT IS THE DEAL?" ... she got to be in beta way back ... wait .. there's more .. "I LEARNED TO READ AND WRITE ON THIS GAME!" ... oh .. well THAT explains a lot!!
Hang on, Child Services will be right over. -
I think Arcanaville is the only player acknowledged in the GR credits.
Math geniuses, ain't it always the way.
