    Back in Sep of 08 the only MMO I had ever played was Dungeon Runners - which was kinda hilarious and very free. My better half bought me the retail disk they released that summer. It came with 6 mths of premium membership and a stupid Bling Gnome.

    But ... It also came with a trial to CoH/CoV Good Vs Evil Edition. (I should mention here that this is a house full of various geek disciplines) The capes and masks had our attention, but several accounts at $15 a month almost kept us from even installing the trial.

    Then I searched YouTube and found this: http://youtu.be/rNGcWznDr4k

    We subscribed immediately and a 6 month subscription to Dungeon Runners went unused.

    So, D_R, your videos are now emotional bookends for 4 years of great memories and fun, alternately saving or plotting against Paragon City. Thanks.

    I just wanted to drop a quick thank you to the veterans of Justice server.

    Via JFA you have tolerated my newb questions over the last 14 months and given (mostly) sound advice. You also got me through my first ITF when Spar Khee was a mere 35 and I only had 3 months experience with the game. What I haven't learned through direct questions I picked up from just lurking .. . uh, i mean watching conversations on JFA while I played.

    When I wasn't learning something, I was just plain entertained. (passes Choake a vodka)

    I'd list specific players, but I think that is enough shameless butt-kissing for now.

    Thanks again

    Best AT related post. Ever. <<wipes tears of laughter from eyes>>

    also - I realize i'm reading years-old posts on this thread, but have to admit I get peeved with teammates who, either out of impatience or hubris, bring hordes of fail back to share w/ rest of team. Or starts a second fight entirely while the rest of the team could use their help with the first mob. If someone wants to go fight in separate room from the rest of the team, then why join a team in the first place?

    Farming, PLing, etc. I have a question on these issues. (7-month noob here, btw - joined right after i12)

    Why pay for a game and subscription to just rush to the end anyway? I solo, play w/ teams and SG mates and have also been running AE mishes since i14. My enjoyment of this game has been tied to exploring the content and diverse set of features offered. It took me 4 months and a 2x-XP weekend to get my 1st toon to 50, and I enjoyed every minute of it. I just don't get why anyone would want to effectively skip to the end. Hmm.

    My only real complaint is that Broadcast has turned into a cat-food commercial -
    "Meow, meow, meow, meow.
    Meow, meow, meow, meow"

    Having said that, it should still be left up to an individual player to play the game however they wish.

    Fascism seems so, I don't know, Anti-heroic somehow.
