We have a channel for ToHit rolls, and sometimes on this channel powers with effects that aren't 100%, like the stun in Bone Smasher, will report the result of the chance to stun on that channel.

What I'd like to see is a channel for invention procs that show the result of the proc's roll when it checks if it goes off. For example:

Your Positron's Blast: Chance for Energy Damage DIDN'T go off! Proc chance was 20% and you rolled a 35.91.

Your Gaussian's Synchronized Fire-Control: Chance for Build Up WENT OFF! Proc chance was 5% and you rolled a 3.25.

If the aforementioned not 100% chance to happen effects of powers' rolls went on this channel too, that'd be even better.

Smilies are just a shortcut to embedding an image in your post, there's nothing to stop you from making some smily-style pictures yourself, hosting them somewhere, and using them as such. Just look at what PhiloticKnight is doing with the old forum's yellow smilies.

Why not start a collection of such images on ParagonWiki?

I really miss the old Search Results display. I loved how it showed exactly what post came up as a hit for your search. Now, if you're searching for a thread on a certain subject, you can't tell if the hits are in the original post or in a reply.

Speaking of replies, I also can't tell when looking at the list of forums if the latest post in the forum is a reply or a new thread because the "Re: " is being omitted from the post's subject line.

I'm pretty sure if you click the Edit button there's an option to delete the post.

I dunno, the pictures are kinda big for smilies.

There is no Liefeld task force, it's a comic book geek joke. Rob Liefeld is a comic book artist who is well known, and disparaged, for drawing characters with excessive amounts of pockets and pouches. His other claims to notoriety: enormous guns, deformed anatomy, not drawing feet.

That's a terrible idea. Go to your room.

I really miss the way the old forums made hyperlinks bold and light green by default. I also much preferred the dark blue background of the old hero boards, is there any way we can get those back?

This link is what you want to bookmark to have the forums expanded.

The dark blue background, the lighter colors on threads with new posts, the green, bolded hyperlinks...can I get them back? I selected the hero skin in the control panel, but it seems to have changed nothing.

Oh new Mr. Rolleyes, what fun we will have together!

I wouldn't be surprised if Custom Critters in general were to get reduced rewards.

That's an idea they could work with, since they seemingly insist on allowing all-Lt and all-boss maps.

Yeah, a terrible idea since people just farm standard mobs.

And on that "until they split the atom" [censored]... See that big 'ole glowing orb out there? "About the size" of the moon? Yeah, that one that hurts to look at? Yeah, think about that object, then realize why your claimed story is stupid as hell. Now wait for night and look at all those twinkling lights in the sky. Now realize why you should be fired for such a stupid story.

Boy, it's gonna be fun on the new forums with you, PK, and Golden Girl.

ZOMG, that's right. Golden Girl will probably have access to the new forums, and Niv and 8 probably aren't familiar with her posting history.

*shudder*

Actually I talked to Ocho about this yesterday and he knows about her. Remember that most of the people modding the forums do play - and he does play a lot He's been here for a while, including around her. Apparently GG heard about us randing and posted something on the eu forums in response

Where did Golden Girl go, exactly?

Day Job badges: worst badges ever.

I'd like this, I really would.

That's another notch on the Excite-O-Meter.

STOP THE [CENSORED] PRESSES!!!!!

I found something to [censored] complain about.

There are no [censored] screenshots of [censored] custom color [censored] Energy Melee!

What kind of [CENSORED] would post up screens of lame [censored] powers, and not have [censored] screenshots of [censored] Energy Melee?!

I mean, [censored] really. Is it too [censored] [censored] [censored] much to [censored] ask that we get some [censored] screens of [censored]-up [censored] Energy Melee?

[censored].

This post has been brought to you by 'Self Mockery' and the great word [censored], which may actually be a phrase. I'm not sure how the [] modify it.

You may carry on with the "Good job, BABs and Team!" now.

There are [censored] pictures of Energy [censored] Manipulation; it's the same [censored] thing! [censored], get your [censored] eyes examined!

You gotta let me into this Closed Beta! This issue was MADE for me!

Well, it looks like the Excite-O-Meter just went up.

In other words, perfect for a Vet reward.

Loath as I am to suggest even more badges you get for not playing the game, even I have to admit that this idea makes sense. I didn't bother coming up with descriptions, though.

New Day Job: Trainer, earned by logging out near a Trainer or Arbiter. Earns a Day Job power that increases Accuracy. (Not ToHit) When the badge is earned, naturally the new power is a larger increase to Accuracy.

New Accolade: Hero/Villain Trainer. When you've earned the Patroller and Trainer badges, logging out near a Trainer or on Patrol (even though logging out on Patrol doesn't seem to earn charges for the other accolades that require it) will earn you "charges" that allow you to train up in level any hero or villain of a lower combat level than you.

The Gears set isn't "new" or "in the works," it's a set that icon art was made for that players found in the pigg files, but was never implemented.

Well they're definitely not missing Build Up. ZING!

Archery Manipulation:

Entangling Arrow
Arrow Stab
Throw Bow
Two Arrows Stab
Build Up
Glue Arrow
Stun Arrow Club
Boost Range
Use The Bow As A Makeshift Garrote

There ya go!
