    While this has some element of truth to it, it is also a well known fact he is indeed a noob.

    In reality, Turbo is an SG mate/friend of mine.
  4. The answer is: No, the devs do not hate bases.

    They hate Villains.

    Depends. Are we talking about the nice robots or the ones that want to kill us humans and stuff?

    I see what you did there...

    btw, it was NOT me who left the feedback stating that "Which is better? Enzyte or Viagra?" should be an acceptable topic of discussion on the channel...

    Very true, yet there are two sides to this coin. Personally, negative tags/PMs/posts/whatever don't bother me and I'm part of the community nor am I "harmed" by it.
  8. This thread is full of win!

    I have not met anyone IRL from the game (yet) but have met some great people online. I've teamed with most everyone here at some point over the years and you are all great (except for Turbo).

    To be honest, the people I have met in-game are 100% of the reason why I don't move on to another MMO, even though I want to try STO so I can make Mini Vulcans and Klingons and a Mini Shatner toon. It would not be the same though because all of you are not there!

    Triumph peeps FTW!! (except Turbo... and Foley... Shocker too).


    P.S. All hawt, single women please feel free to PM me (must love Monkeys tho)

    P.S.S. This is funny;

But one should not make assumptions or force their own views on others as being the right thing to do.
    I understand completely where you are coming from, yet I would argue that the OPs suggestion of removing ratings/rep/comments because they "divide the community" is the inverse of telling others to "suck it up" and not within their right either. That, too, is an assumption that is trying to force their views on others.

    I also don't discourage anyone from reporting anything to the Mods (and I know you were not referring to me in specific there), yet I do believe there is a fine line to be walked in that regard. I'm not saying you personally do this, but I'm certain there are those out there who PM the Mods with every slight they receive here, whether they are a genuine violation of the forum rules or not.

    I could be wrong, but I read that as Mods having to deal with every request that comes into them (albeit "graffitti" or whatever) which is most likely not a genuine violation of the forum rules and more of a slight. Wasting time on those keeps them from focusing on the "real" ones.

    Just my personal point of view here, I get very crude/profane rep comments/PMs all the time. Personally, I just delete them as the majority of the time, they are 1 time snarks. I really don't need a Mod to do that for me. Like I said, I could be wrong but I believe that is the spirit of what was meant by "growing thicker skin". Personally, I tend to agree with that sentiment.

    To bring back what was said above, it is schoolyard bullying at its worst.
    I can understand and sympathize that tags/rep comments can be annoying, yet the best advice I can give is to turn your forum reputation off and simply ignore comments/tags posted on these threads. IMO most all of them are meaningless anyway and people will continue to post stuff we may not like no matter what we do. That's just part of life.

    Be more mature than they are and simply ignore it. Don't give trolls ammo to keep doing it.
  12. I have to ask, why is this so bothersome to you? Not trying to be snarky or inflamatory, but is forum rep really worth getting upset over? I'm just curious why some find it so bothersome.
  13. I am considering joining that channel so I can inquire as to how I go about obtaining an Epic Mount.

    I might be able to bring out the big guns for this one...

    Might be noteworthy to put this into the Suggestions forum. If you are at the inf cap, it should notify you and hold the difference until your toon can carry it. This is similar notice to you being unable to get salvage/insps/recipes/ehancments if your toon is "full".

    Same. I'll PL my little ones into the 20s at least dual boxing it.

    If I get invited to a team though, I'll log off one account.

    Yeah the cut scenes in the SF are slick. Personally, I like the SF version more than the TF. It's more of a challenge. You might want to try this next time with more DeBuffs for the Reichsman fight.
  19. Are you looking for advice on defeating Reichsman only or all the AVs too?

    Just my personal experience, but overwhelming DeBuffs and Damage drop Reichsman (and the other AVs) fairly quick.

    Last we ran this (on Triumph heroside) we had the following team;

    1 Tank
    1 Scrapper
    2 Blasters
    3 Defenders (2 RAD/* and 1 Dark/Dark)
    1 Controller (Ice/RAD)

    When we run the Cuda SF, we usually try for a similar Villain AT team makeup;

    2 Brutes (1 Brute can tackle Reichsman while the second helps aggro ambushes)
    1 Stalker
    4 Corruptors (w/ strong Debuffs)
    1 MM or Dom

    Again, just personal experience here so YMMV.

    The game has changed (like tweaks to END for sets) and offers many more tools (like combining inspir/IOs/etc.) as well as patrol XP and the XP leveling changes to make it go faster. This game is already easy enough.

    So we struggle a little early on. Look at what toons can do later. It's really not that big a deal.
    Not a big deal for me either since I just PL my alts into the late 20's miniumum. You or I and how we play do not represent every player though, so assuming it is "no big deal" for you does not mean it isn't for others. Not every player has the Vet pet you have to help with END recovery.
