  1. Just asked to join the group. Adam Turbett is my name, and Tanking is my game!

    Or, when you look at the numbers across a whole set, and compare it to other whole sets, you can see that one is clearly underperforming. So there's that, too.
  3. Bill, it was nice knowing you, and I hope that I run into you at some point in the future at some other game!

    Or just look up Adam Turbett for whatever. There's only two of us in the United States, so you've got a 50/50 chance of getting the right one.

    Well, it's seriously true. While I have had many great Tanking memories in the game, I think that discussions about Taunt devolving into BBQ talk was great. The Carp melee discussions, the build advice given and received, the overall congenial attitude, the discussions of game mechanics. All have been great memories.
  6. Cuppa, hope you're doing well. Definitely missed!
  7. While there are just so many people that I really want and need to thank, I want to start off by thanking a name from way back.

    Thank you, Circeus, for helping me to get INTO this game, instead of just playing it.
  8. Can I just say that my favorite Tanker memories have all been on the Tanker forums?
  9. Just fly around the Shadow Shard for a while. Always a fun trip.

    Thank you.

    To all of the Devs: Thank you for the great ride. CoH was my first MMO, and I'll always compare other games to it. You've all done a great job and created a fantastic game. I will miss this game, and the wonderful community.

    Are you guys all only allowed to post from your own game accounts now? Why no redname posts since the announcement? Sad to see you guys relegated to your alter-egos at a time like this.
  12. Wait?! What?! BABs was Tic-Toc?! I remember arguments with him from way back! My mind has been blown twice today!

    Devs, you've done a fantastic job with CoH. Let us know what your next projects are, and I'll be there to check them out! Rather stick with you guys than with NCSoft!
  13. If we have time for that, I'll spend points on a server transfer token, and bring Aett out of retirement for a Tanker Tuesday.

    It's a very sad day indeed, and I will very much miss this community. Especially the Tanker community. The people here are the reason I've been playing this game since Issue 2, and plan to be here until the game shuts its doors.

    A great Thank You goes out to all of you for the great times, and all of the fantastic BBQ recipes I've picked up over the years.

    ... damnit I hate that this game is winding down now....
    We never even found out where the rocket launch pads do! They've been under construction since issue 7 or something!

    Yeah, looks like this might be the right answer, given the recent news.
  16. Well, don't want to repeat sets on these guys, but the Mind/TA Controller might be interesting. As would the Grav/Psi Dom.
  17. So, I've decided that I want to create a triumvirate of characters that reflect some of the least-seen powerset combos in the game. So far, I am thinking of going with a Sonic/Fire Blaster, a Dark/Ice/Stone Tank-troller, and a... I really just don't know what to do with the last spot. So, I'm throwing it out there to the peanut gallery. What are some combos that you almost never see in the game?
  18. Was just able to snag one of those. Wahoo!
  19. I love my Traps/AR Defender, currently in his mid-30s, and not even IO'd yet. I imagine that once I start to IO him, all of the different Procs that I'll be able to use will make him a very interesting character to play.
  20. The Luddites have some of my favorite lines, but the best one, I think is:

    "I'm glad you asked. No, non-violence does not mean, 'knives only.'"

    You could probably do it. With power pools opening at level 4, the addition of powers to each pool, and epics opening up at level 35 with 5 powers in them, I think you could do it.

    DEVS, this is unacceptable...
    We should get Zwill to come to the next DC area meet and greet. And then kidnap him until we all get aura codes.

    I love that building. Been around since the game began, but very few people know about it.
  24. Blue,

    Have you checked out the multimedia forum? There are three threads in there that you might want to check out: The cool costume tricks one, the costume (re)design thread, and the cool costumes thread that is stickied at the top.
