    I have to admit, I'm a bit confused by his stance as well.

    He claims he was just playing by the spirit of the zone and everything he did was allowed by the rules, and "supported" by the developers. Yet, those who chose to farm the zone using Heavies were also doing things allowed by the rules and "supported" by the developers, and also within the spirit of the zone (I'd probably put money down that farmers captured the zone pillboxes more then PvPers, in general), but he reviled them and called them names, trying to drive THEM from the zone using similar, if not identical tactics he complained people used against him.

    Am I missing something in that?

    The only thing you’re missing is that an advanced education or academic recognition does not in any way free a person from hypocrisy and self denial.
  2. All,

    Since they "fixed" everyone's favorite "exploit" that allowed us to have blank glass walls and floor panels, I've been trying different combos of colors and SG symbols for the 2 different types of glass walls and the 4 types of floor panels.

    Limited success.

    Does anyone think they've prefected it? Or gotten particularly close?

    I published something once. It was a study on the effects of alcohol on people who are specifically attracted to one race yet find themselves in a room filled with everything BUT that race of the opposite gender. I called it "Phillipino, Mexican...close enough."

    I just got done reading the article and the whole paper he wrote. I also forwarded the link to a Psychology Major friend of mine. She wants to use his paper and experiances as resource material for a paper she's writing on Divergent Anti-Social Disorders. And. She's. 100%. Serious.
    I Couldn't stop laughing for almost 5 minutes.

    Ping, if you could, please forward me a copy of the response letter you write, and let me know if she can use it in her paper as well.

    I'll be writing a retort that she may use, but I think multiple responses would do better.

    Personally, Mod8, I think it's been pretty level-headed so far, considering the subject. Of course, having Dr. Myers coming in here with an alt account (OPTICAL_ILLUSION) and talking more trash didn't help.

    Point of order: Is pointing out that OPTICAL_ILLUSION is a sock puppet considered a personal attack? I don't believe it is, but other opinions may differ.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Sock puppet? No.

    Instigator? Yes.

    I doubt he even believe what he wrote. Just stirring the pot a bit.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I thought he was just trolling at first, yes. But when he started posting Twixt's chat files, and talking about Twixt's "leet" PvP skills, It became obvious to me. It's just the same old [censored] that Dr. Myers did when he was using the Twixt handle.

    If it walks like a Twixt...
    ...and it quacks like a Twixt...
    ...and it cherry-picks it's "evidince" like a Twixt...

    Yes Twixt knew how to PvP quite well on his LOLMelee. Yeah and no Phase on the toons I had seen prior to I13. He had superior skill, tactics, knowledge and timing.

    Oh yes,

    OPTICAL_ILLUSION = Twixt

    Yeah, but to keep it in perspective: this story is on some jerkwater news site and the Twixt article is trailing one about Sarah Palin for number of comments.

    Twixt did not use foul or offensive language.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    See that right there? That is a lie.

    I'm guessing that you are Dr. Myers with an alt account. And you're here trying to further poke the player base in an attempt to elicit more hostile responses. And that you intend to include the "horrible, unfair, meeanie meeanie foo feanie" responses as an appendix to your book.

    A book that will not be peer reviewed of course.

    Because you know it would be ripped to bits if it were.

    And furthermore, I know that if I'm correct, you will assuridly not quote me in said book. Because "Dr." Myers can only cherry pick from his "data" to support his "conclusions."

    If you decide to come back, don't worry, there won't be any reduction in the effectiveness of any powers due to you changing any of the colors.

    Changing the sound effects, though, that's a different story.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    But, do we get a buff by using the Visual Sounds we were promised a while back? I mean, FREEM!!!! has to be pretty damn powerful!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I think Visual Sounds were delayed until they could implement Visual Smells as well.

  15. No, Cherokee is full of it.

    I have seen that exact same picture before, from a different player who claimed to have taken it himself. And, again, swearing up and down that he wasn't using a client side mod. I mean, that EXACT same picture. Same toon, same pose, same location, same pubes. And the person posting it also claimed it to be legit, and was thuroughly debunked. This was a couple years ago, at least.

    (So? I have a good memory for pubes. What, you wanna make something of it? )

    This is the CoX equivalent of an urban legend. A picture like this is the result of either a mod or photoshop.

    Greetings,

    A new Canon Fodder post is now up with some additional info on Blue Steel for those that were *not* amused last week.

    Happy holiday weekend to everyone!

    I think that when Wonder Woman punches would be villains in the throat, the difficulty they experience breathing quite probably convinces them of her seriousness, and additionally distracts them from any moral assumptions they might have been making about her attire.


    [/ QUOTE ]

    If Wonder Woman were to try punching ME in the throat, my ensuing difficulty in breathing would have almost everything to do with her attire. Her seriousness level at the time would factor into it as well, obviously.

    OP:

    What you call morals and values appear to be nothing more than a bigoted, ultra conservative, narrow minded and shallow view on life. And hateful to boot.

    ...and I'm guessing, from the way he goes on and on and on about "morals," that he has a "wide stance."
