True...but apocalypse has high volumes, doesn't sell at odd levels, and they had already posted it on WW. So...I still don't understand this particular thread...........
It was either that or outright delete it.
I was being nice by posting it on the market. -

I've never really understood why people say they're selling a recipe/enhancement? Why not just post it up minus the pomp?

No, when you do rub the OP's face in it - that's just flat out ********.

Wasn't rubbing. Just saying. The OP knows they couldve got more, apparently they wanted a fast sell as to why they posted one for sell.
It was heroside.

I guess it depend if the mods find nuking tag lists all that time intensive, or breaking of the forum rules.
*looks at the tag list below*
I have a feeling they don't.

OH! And lest I forget, I found another: (a classic actually
)
Chocolate Cream Puff Dessert
1 stick margarine
1 cup water
1 cup flour
4 eggs
6 oz. Instant Vanilla Pudding
3 cups milk
8oz. cream cheese, softened
8oz. Cool Whip
Hershey's chocolate syrup Bring margarine and water to a boil. Blend flour in, beating it into a ball. Add eggs one at a time and beat well. Spread mixture into a greased 9" x 13" glass pan and bake at 400°F for 40 minutes. Cool crust.
For filling: mix pudding, milk and cream cheese together. Spread over cooled crust. Top with Cool Whip. Drizzle chocolate syrup over the top. Keep refrigerated. -

Well I think that whoever tagged my MA review thread 'hugfest' was being sarky, not well-meaning. As it happens, i actually like the tag very much lol, but I'm not sure how Venture, for example, feels about some of the tags on his review threads. The tag system can be used to poke fun at the thread starters in some cases.
Eco.
Right now I really don't take any of the tags below all that seriously. As I've seen some tags left that most players wouldn't dare posting for fear of being blasted in the face with the Ocho's mod nuke, and the mods haven't done too much about it, I don't think it's all that bad.
Then again I've seen some tags nuked.
So who knows if those will be removed also.
I wouldn't care either way. -

Well, players have to play the game the way the game has to played. In other words, as long as there's no Human Game Master behind the game, modifying it to include every scenario players wish to introduce, computer-based RPG's can only allow a very limited set of interactions. That I believe is the obstacle standing in the way of MMORPG's. If a game included code that would allow players to actually come up with gameplay options that were not originally included in the game's script (such as P&P gaming allowed), then we'd be looking at a whole different animal.
MA was the start of something like this. However, the way it works doesn't really allow one to do this on the fly, as to edit a mission or add more objectives to a mission, an author has to take the mission offline.
Back in Champions Online Alpha and pre-Alpha folks were asking for all kinds of GMing and role play options. Some of the ideas were not just realistic since their wasn't a live GM around.
I don't know if we are anywhere near the ability to GM in live MMO's yet. Once the developers come up with a way to do so, the MMOs can regain their MMORPG distinction. -
Quote:I think part of the issue is developers had to start focusing on pvp, customization, and other things that pulled them away from the RPG in MMORPG. If you notice the more common vernacular in use now is MMOs. Even you just did it above.Originally Posted by LordXenite
Uhh... why should there be more when most people seem satisfied with just the bare necessities required to blow stuff up and beat it down alongside your friends?!
If you're looking for more, you'd first have to convince publishers that it's going to be worthwhile investing in making something more, and so far, the two companies that I see making headway in that direction are BioWare (SW:TOR) and Cryptic (STO). Hopefully those companies and the newer MMO's they will come out with, will return some long awaited (at least by me) RPG into the whole MMORPG formula.
If you want to know what I miss in current MMO's, I miss the whole story-telling we have when playing P&P RPG games. Sitting together, rolling a die and together, spinning a tale we can still laugh at years from now. Current MMO's are all too focused on simply killing stuff, and not many people even care why.
It's the entire industry that has moved away from the RPG part, not just players.
Do I miss it? Well I didn't play the original UO so I don't know what it was like. I really don't think anything comes close the classic pen and paper rpgs of old, in terms of computerized translation. MUDs and early CRPGs like Baldur's Gate tired to capture it, but even they couldn't quite get it down. I don't remember rolling the dice all that much in Baldur's Gate II for PC.

If you leave the MA and go grab a paper mission, how much XP does a standard Council minion give you?
... And since when can you recolor existing enemies!?! I know what I'm doing when I get home from work tonight. -

Quote:The point of his post was that he can't give an accurate time frame, as he's stuck in GR work.Originally Posted by PhantomRanger
I did not see the post from Sunstorm. But the point of this is to hopefully get some type of information to the masses and by making this post let the devs know we want a timeframe. This was not meant to dog him out, but get us info.
If he were to give one and then miss it, he'd be crucified on the forums.
The devs have learned from doing that before, and that exactly happening on the forums, so not surprising that he isn't giving a time frame because he really doesn't know when he'll be able to get away from GR.
Would you rather he say that or just come in and blow smoke up your *** saying "some time in 2010". -
Quote:Personally even if they did intro something that affected gameplay, depending on what it was I may or may not buy it.Originally Posted by DumpleBerry
Maybe. So far the Boosters have all been purely/largely cosmetic. Funny thing, that--aesthetics being in the eye of the beholder. So long as it doesn't affect anyone's gameplay, they don't have to buy it. So long as it makes my gameplay awesome looking, I do.
Something that lets me go to the useless empty space known as the shadow shard, no. Something that teleports me to Wents/BM anytime I want without time limit restrictions, sure.
I see your point though. -

Hammer, meet head of nail.
Anything that adds new stuff to the game is worth money to me.
Just warning you ahead of time.
For me if its new and fun to use I'm buying it, just as every booster has been for me. -

Or you can always take the self destruct power and take it off of your power tray entirely... or put it in like tray 7 or something...
Some would call that insane behavior though.
What?
Why are you looking at me like that?

I particularly like this one:

1 tsp. margarine
10 eggs
½ c. chapped ham
¼ c. chopped green pepper, optional
¼ c. red pepper, optional
9 slices fat-free cheese, cut diagonally
9 bagels Melt margarine in skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle ham, green pepper and red pepper evenly over bottom of skillet. Beat eggs in medium size bowl. Gently pour beaten eggs over ingredients in skillet. Reduce heat to low and cover skillet. Cook for 10-12 minutes or until eggs are set. Cut egg mixture into 9 square sections. Place each egg patty on bottom half of bagel. Top with 2 cheese triangles and other half of bagel. -
