Swinging over water - you...what? I can't come up with anything that doesn't sound really stupid.

Bill, I just had to chime in here and say that I notice you have been on the forums since Feb of '05. If we assume that means Feb 1 of '05 and we count through all of today, that means you've been able to post for 1668 days. You have 26,442 posts. If we assume you've posted every single day since you registered with the forum (which I highly doubt), that means you've averaged 15.85 posts per day. Even if we assume an average post is 20 words (which is pretty small but smooths things out for posts like "/signed" and such) and an average word is 5 characters (which is the standard for typing tests) that's 1585 words per day. According to a question asked in the New York Times, the average newspaper article length, at least for that institution, is 1200 words.

I'm going to hazard a guess and say that a regular, amateur columnist would earn an average fee for each article of about $10 (much more for a few, much less or nothing for most). That means you've written almost 530,000 words and done over $16,680 worth of work for the city of heroes forums over the last 4 years or so. And you likely haven't been paid or even offered a dime.

I think too much.

E-mail Spam.

Do you know how many E-mail I get after one day of not logging in. Whenever I log in, I just press delete 20-50 times just to clean out the E-mail box from RMT (Real Money Traders). I can imagine the following scenario :

1) Log into character and and see lots of SPAM on Inbox.

2) Not bother reading, I delete all the E-mail. 1 of them was an influence transfer.


If one was an influence E-mail, I would have lost millions of influence by not reading the E-mail. Then we would gripe more for losing influence whether it came from myself or even a friend. Even if there is a feature many of us would like to have, there would always be flaws.

I asked a few people and they agreed with me on this so I'm making a suggestion box for ATs.
I recomend using the format the game uses for example (with something i came up with as an AT of my own):

Duplicate: Primary (Melee) Secondary (Summon) Hitpoints (Medium) Damage (High)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Duplicate uses powers that clone himself. The Duplicate creates a second attack the target immediately after striking a targetted foe in order to create a 'double threat' effect. It also creates other versions of himself to aid in combat. The 'doubles' will deal damage according to the kind of 'double' they are. The Duplicate has very little defence but is backed up by the extra damage of his attacks.

I would KILL to play with the above AT but that's just me. I really just want to see all the ideas people come up with. I think people can agree with me that new ATs would add a whole new aspect to playing the game.

Explaining what the devs have told us about why we don't have a global bank does not mean we think the suggestion is bad. It also doesn't mean that the devs may not change their minds at some point and decide to put this feature in the game.

As I said before the only thing I know the devs said we'd never see is the ability to respec out of our powersets. (they also said we were lucky they let us pull 10 enh during a respec)
