  1. Thanks for bringing that out. :-)
  2. Fey; I do remember those. They were classic. Wish I'd copied/pasted them for persona reading.

    And yeah, I loved conversations with Killer Whale.

    And let's not forget Knight Falcon!

    You forgot Royal Jester. :-)
  4. It was OK. I give it a 3.5 out of 5 stars. Two of those for Megan Fox 'cause well, I'm a guy. The other 1.5 for the story and the acting.

    From my perspective, it seemed like the humor seemed somewhat forced. The story was good but some of the acting was a little over the top (Agent Simmons quote: "One man alone..." OY!)

    However; it's still going to sell a lot of popcorn and entertain and that's what matters. :-)
  5. Happy Canada Day! (July 1st)
  6. Thanks to the D and now the AE, RP has shifted to other venues.

    Gemnii Park will occasionally have folks out there, but the core group has moved on to other stuff, whether it's other groups or whatnot. We're out there. You just need to find us. :-)
  7. Congrats on a lovely child.

    In 18 years, you'll say, "Now I can get even!"

    Trust me on this. :-)

  9. I know I'm not the only one excited about it. I"ve got a friend who has a slot on each and every server; guess he gets to do it all over again. :-)

    Why? Because to be selfish it is incredibly useful for me. I have over 50+ characters spread across 6 servers. Something like this would be a great tool for me to check my characters out. In addition having your slotting and what is slotted available right there on the web page. That is simply wow, a fantastically useful tool.

    See I often read the boards and post from work while doing things like reimaging and other tasks the require some but not all of my attention. Ocasionally I might even be happy to go over my characters planning what I want to do or what I need to build. At this point I keep it all in a text file on my old computer but that isn't available to me at work. Some people keep large speadsheets of this info, so having it easily called up is fantastic.

    And Frankly I don't see my builds as somethign super secret. For that matter builds aren't super secret in PvP the only place it matters. I gurrentee you I would keep a spotter logged in on the other side so I could pull up info data on someone if I wanted it. Not hard to do.

    You'll recall that I have nothing against the option in and of itself. My objection was that it would automatically be "On."

    And it's not so much that my builds for my toons are "super-secret" as they're none of anyone else's business. Simple fact. If I want someone's opinion of my SO's, IO's or whatever, I'll ask. If they require I turn on the stats, I will for a short period. Once they're done, I'll turn them off again.
  11. So the first question that pops in my mind here is..."Why?" Why do this? This is already available by checking each other out in-game (which I liken to dogs sniffing each other's butts, by the way). How is this going to improve my enjoyment of the game?

    I have to agree with Clobbertime here. I don't mind the idea of the ability to display things, per se, it's the idea of being forced to turn them off for each and every character (and some of us have filled every slot on every server).

    Simply put; it's not going to improve my enjoyment of the game, really. Yes, give us the ability to do this; it'd be an easy way to check badges, if nothing else. But give *us* the choice to turn it ON to begin with.

    Personally, I'd rather have most character slots than anything else. Just my two inf.
  12. When I see "Moggie" and a title like that, I already know to take it with a grain of salt. *grin*
  13. I have been on 3, repeat 3, safeguards. That's three too many in my book. To say I'm disappointed would be an understatement.

    Some things have already been pointed out; Superspeed doesn't get you unnoticed, etc.

    From a soloers point of view, unless you're a tank or a scrapper, a hero's chances of survival are nil. You're not just outnumbered (hey, 2-3 vs. a single hero? No problem!), you're severely outnumbered.

    My only suggestion is to reduce the mobs based on group size; maybe 3 main mobs robbing the bank in a solo mission when set on "Heroic" and raise it accordingly based on group size and mission difficulty.
  14. Plas has always been a good listener for me when I want to vent and doesn't judge me when I snark off.
  15. Wow, Burnsie, you got the official "Whale Seal of Approval" though what you're going to do with a seal, I have no idea.

    i agree a level 50 should totally lay the smack down on a level 20 one on one. but the level 20 should at least have a chance of hitting the level 50 - don't artificially eliminate a lower levels chance of hitting by using in game controls to modify accuracy/damage vs higher levels. and on the reverse, dont let high levels automatically get accuracy/damage bonuses vs lower levels.

    First, allow me to say that I'm not knocking your idea. All ideas need to be explored and thought out.

    But by the above bout of reasoning, are you saying that a Lvl 20 Player should be able to also take on, let's say, a Lvl 50 Malta?

    Not gonna happen, for a couple of reasons:

    1) Where's the challenge to the Level 20? Why should he bother to run missions if all that happens if he challenges something 30 levels higher than him and is auto-boosted to be on equal footing. Someting that's Lvl 50 be it player, villain, or mob, has worked hard to get there. I'm sorry but the level 20 should be an instant grease spot to be wiped off the Lvl 50s footgear.

    2) The fun. What fun is it if you're the Lvl 20 and you *know* that if you challenge someone higher than you, you'll be auto-boosted? Me, I'd be bored. If you plan to be a villain, you need to be a sneaky b**tard in your plans to...dominate the world/build a really cool herotrap/etc. etc. You're not always going to be battling good guys.

    Anyway, I'm rambling. It was an interesting idea.
  17. How 'bout occasionally seeing a sleigh being steered by a reindeer and pulled by eight Santas?

    16. Adding Tanker damage has become a little problematic. It makes the almost too powerful...but it's an ongoing issue internally. We are definitely adding more aggro control to the Tanker.

    States, thanks for the updates on what's going on. Tankers don't have to do as much damage as a Scrapper, but it'd be nice if they did more or something...

    Chat Bubbles

    So I guess the next question is, once you've set up your nifty-keen chat bubble color keybind, does it stay or do you have to re-do it every time you log on?
