Ah, there we go. I knew we had some more insane people on this server.

The Khan TF was worth it just to see an AV ignore everyone in TF to run across the map to kill aven while he was AFK.


[/ QUOTE ]
*sigh*
I've had that happen to me. But, I didn't have the excuse of being AFK for why I died.
...
Wait, you were there when it happened to me.
In fact I remember we had to pause between mobs so you could compose yourself from laughing.
Good to know your pleasure from other's inexplicable aggro isn't just confined to me.

Oh and the fact that someone, somehow, thought Task Force Nothung was a good name

The fact that out of all the names, the Pingu TF got it is the funniest part.

I blame Ashcraft for most of those deaths.

I'll let you know next week. I'm taking my week long new issue sabbatical. :P

[/ QUOTE ]

Normally, I'd think that was a good idea. New Issue Lag is often frustrating as all heck, but last night I didn't really notice alot of lag. I saw a crapload of bugs, but not lag.

First Impressions, I think they have too many people working on the Rogue Expansion, and not enough working on this Issue. It was released too soon. I've seen bugs with the TF Temp Powers, Newly arisen Graphics problems, Blank Prompt boxes popping up, unpredictable crashes to Login Screens, Animation hangups, and Chat Errors.

Also, it seems like a "gimme" issue. Not a whole lot to be excited about. A new TF is a good gift, especially for the Champion Server which seems to be on a TF kick lately. But, that's really all. And I think it would be a better TF if it were a lower level. Something in the mid to upper 30s - lower 40s would have been neat. We have alot of 45-50 TFs already (ITF, LGTF, STF, and the Rikti Mothership raids should be thrown in there too).

Also, (I've said this before, and I'm sure I'll say it again) they keep releasing equal content for Villains and Heroes. They need to add Exclusive Villain Content at some point. On all servers, Villain play is down. Because there isn't enough to keep people interested. New Hero stuff is fun, but there is so much of it.

Damn.
An awful lot of well-balanced people on this server.
Makes me wish I hadn't posted my results now.
It really makes me look like a complete loon among you "Normies"

I'm taking off on the 31st.
Angry Sysop WILL catch up to the rest of the Static Team!!!

Aww I wasn't thinking in that way at all. I was actually reacting to the media talking about african-american society group and organisations paying tribute to MJ for breaking into MTV and being a huge stepping stone towards racial equality. They were saying the chain was something like: MJ - Oprah - Denzel Washington (sp?) - Tiger Woods - Obama. But MJ was first, and achieved in music what the others achieved in other spheres later on.

Plus MJ wasn't really about race, he united people at a more fundamental level.

That's where the whole idea came from.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, I eat my words.
Yes. I believe you are right. During his climb to the "King of Pop" title, he did cross alot of racial lines. Brought a flavor of Motown to the Pop Charts, that were sorely lacking in African American influence. Not TOTALLY lacking, but not enough.

He made it "Totally Cool" for anyone to like an African-American Singer. Even the biggest redneck couldn't help but smile a hidden smile at "Thriller". Hell, I had an MJ poster on my wall, and a Red Pleather jacket in the 80's too. So, yes. He does deserve your efforts and respect for that. But, I think alot of others have came and went to be being a leader in an effort towards racial equality since then.

As I grew up I saw him de-volve into something alien. Something that didn't have all it's marbles. And I'm not alone.
I guess I sometimes focus too much on that.
Personally, when he went Wacko Jacko, he broke my heart a bit. It's never fun to see your heroes fall. I think that's something we all can related to.

Most African-American people I know have considered Michael Jackson as a source of embarrassment for their people than an inspiration.

[/ QUOTE ]

Never got why people want to be called Africa-American what is wrong with being just called an American. Also is they embarrassment because he became "white"? If so that is pitiful for any one who thinks that way and can not get past the color of people skin weather there "black" or "white" or any other "color".

[/ QUOTE ]

Actually they are mostly embarrassed because he became an nutbar. Shall I make a montage of his Faux-General Wardrobe choices? or perhaps his obsession with having his nose done so many times it collapsed his face? Or maybe his obsession with Elizabeth Taylor? I could go on for days.

[/ QUOTE ]

Just making sure you were talking about him becoming a creep.

[/ QUOTE ]

Oh yeah, the skin color thing is waaaaay down the list fropm what I hear. Plenty better reasons to think him weird, I guess.

And I said "most" because it's the word used to describe "the majority" and the majority of the African-American friends, family and associates are embarrassed by him. Not all of them, but over 75%. Want to interview them? You are more than welcome to. Come on out to my town and I'll have a BBQ and you can ask them inane questions till your Cobalt in the face.

Being the lead ethnic-minority icon in the world. Equality and stuff like that.

[/ QUOTE ]

I hope this is a joke.
There are far better ethnic-minority icons that are far more respectable than MJ. Even in is hey-day MJ wasn't half the inspiration of Magic Johnson, or Will Smith, or Bill Cosby or Gregory Hines, or Morgan Freeman. Heck, even Omar Epps, and Billy Dee Williams earn more respect in my eyes.

Most African-American people I know have considered Michael Jackson as a source of embarrassment for their people than an inspiration.

And as a American who voted for Obama, I find it insulting to compare him to Michael Jackson.

While I seem callous to MJ's death, I do mourn the meaningless death of any person, regardless of who they are or what they have or have not done. But, I don't agree with the caliber of respect you seem to shoulder on him.

But, that's the great thing about freedom. The right to peacefully disagree.
