  1. I for one welcome our double XP overlords.

    A dull blades during this event will have 4 blades (double the lolz too)

    I will work extra hard and earn at least triple xp.

    I will also tell twice the ussual number of bad jokes on teamspeak.

    Lolz anyone who is anti-double XP.
  2. Granted it's annoying, but no more so than some n00b pestering you for a PL.

    For a minute there I thought you were older than Integrity (all of them).

    My first computer was a Commodore Vic-20.
  4. A commemorative:

    LOLZ DARK ARMOR

    on your one year anniversary.

    (I broke the lolz moratorium first day of closed beta in my excitement)

    First, READ THIS ANNOUNCEMENT.

    Thsi thread is for discussing that very announcement. Technically, your post amounted to "tl; dr" ... and is now very verboten by the new forum rules.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    O noes, I might get banzored from teh forums. *yawn*
  6. I think this Ex Libris person is just asking to be modded she posts how to mod her in her sig. So whenever I see one of her posts I do.

    That and her avatar features an angel being struck by lightning which has got to be more offensive than some of the "religious" names that have gotten genericed in game.

    notice key difference...
    you said "I have occasionally used "NO" "

    offender responded to 'hundreds of posts' with no.
    If his ban is perma, was pre-warned and likely given temp bans first.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Your response is irrelevant to my point, or to this thread topic.

    This thread (and my post) is NOT about any bannings or particular cases which have taken place in the past.

    This thread is a discussion of the edicts the devs have put out lately about how they will create watch lists and what kind of posts they want us not to post.

    They have said "Please refrain from... " and gave examples. They said they will put people on watch lists (that means a step closer to being banned) if certain posts are used. <ul type="square">[*]MY POINT: An occasionally used "just 'No' " post can be the only appropriate reply.[*]A Single, or occasional, appropriate reply should NOT put you on a watch list.[*]Only the start of a pattern of abuse, should put you on a watch list, where as you pointed out, THEN you will be warned, and it is up to you to stop or not, and possibly be banned.[/list]
    I also think posters should be able to vote yes or no on any idea suggested, without having to give all their reasons. I am more than happy as you can see, to spend time typing away, showing what I think. But I think depriving people of their input on an idea, if they don't feel like spending time giving their reasons, is wrong.
    ________________________

    A secondary point in this same idea that has been raised in this thread is: "Are the devs going to put people who want to vote just 'Yes', on a watchlist? or just the people who want to vote just 'No'? "

    But this thread is a discussion on future modding that will be done and has been announced, not past cases.

    &lt;QR&gt;

    I am shocked and appalled to read the list of new posting requirements that are now in effect. No one syllable posts? No lols or just block quoting what someone else has said then adding no discernible new value to them? This is clearly a way of nerfing future posters from ever achieving the Forum Cartel or Cuppa Incarnate forum titles.

    I mean, can you actually imagine filling 10 000 posts full of quality, well thought out responses? The burden this places on the individual poster is extremely onerous and I think unfair on those players who wish to monosyllabically grind their way into those max lvl forum titles.

    Please please please Ex and LH, let us go back to loling and tl;dr'ing our way to the higher echelons of forum titles; any other scenario is clearly a nerf on post counts and an attack on the civil freedoms of democracy itself.

    (Oh, and if someone else has already posted this, this thread was tl; dr)

    For those who are "less than happy" with the look of the Dual Blade screenshots released, please keep in mind that it's still early in the release process with time to polish up features and you don't know all the features included in Issue 11 yet. As we move into October more details will be coming out so hang on to your hats (or blades, or whatever )

    [/ QUOTE ]

    How about passing on the concept of being able to chose your blades? Future, Relic, Mystical, Sammy, ect from the option menu? I bet that would quell alot of problems. I know Posi once said that the powers origin for blasts points and colors were "hard baked" but why not rework the new sets? Then see if you can backwards engineer it I mean, we can send a man into orbit ^^ &lt;shrugs&gt; Where is posi anyway, every since he got a head you never see him anymore ;P

    Goes against everything I've seen in the game. I've seen /Stone tankers out control me, and most every other tanker secondary can out-damage me. Based on my experiences in the game, I don't get how the above is true at all. The mathematical experiments we've run in versions of Tundara's thread don't back it up either.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    The problem with most mathematical experiments I see here in the forums is that they are measuring the extremities of performance. The datamining I do shows how players are actually performing in the "reality" of the game. The two are related, but there is often a vast gulf between what a set is capable of and what it is typically asked to do in gameplay.

    Edit: Also, the quote you referred to is across all AT/Powerset combinations. */Ice outperforms many other AT/Powerset combinations.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Castle, I honestly think that the fundamental flaw of data mining is that it looks at the whole spectrum of players. Your average CoH player, who frankly isn't very good, will do far better on a tank because it is the hardest AT to die on. Another way to put it is a FoTM is not broken unless in the hands of a good enough player.

    I did get a hearty laugh at the best PvP toon being an inv/ice, it lent us insight into why pvp is so misunderstood by the devs, apparently you are all n00bs. Either that or you possess a sublime sense of sarcasm that I sir salute you for.

    It is a complete. In other words when the task force is done, invasion happens.

    On the other hand, it should not just be one zone, but two. One random attack for both sides. Also it should be delayed for a few minutes so that those that did the Task Force could have time to participate in the invasion they called down. (2 inf)

  14. THis one's easy, Slax Task Force, Infinity Server Only. Team needs at least one dark armor to win, but reward is Choice of recipie and all the bosses drop rare magic and pie.

    Frankly this makes as much sense as the rest of the thread.
  15. ZOMG I'm in a RP thread, where the exit?

    INFINITY symbol?!

    Server transfers just happened.

    You all realize what this means don't you?

    THEY'RE SHUTTING DOWN ALL THE SERVERS BUT INFINITY!!!

    I predicated this a while back on some other server's forum (lolz non-infinity servers), but it was a joke. At least I thought it was....

    ...ZOMG I control the fate of this game?!??!

    Issue 11 will have the Slax Task Force.

    Are those escrima sticks? Or are they longer weapons resting on the floor?

    If they're escrima sticks, I hold out new hope for the Dual Blades set.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Not really, they're just a couple of dowel rods with some electrical tape on them. I used them as props trying to sort out some of the new dual blade animations.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Wouldn't Escrima sticks be "dull blades?"
