Yeah, I pretty much have to turn my brain off every time I go there.

Though I am SO stealing the term "moss-moose".

Up until now, I'd just referred to them as "cariboooo".

Heh, personally, the first "bull" toon concept that popped into my head was a fire/fire... something... named "Cowering Inferno"

Good excuse to abuse the /e cower emote, too.

Ooh, yeah! Something like:




Would also like ape/monkey/other primate heads and feet.

Personally, I'm not assuming the patterns only work on "clothing". Good job of fixating on one image, though.

Your guide is fun. It made me have fun. Your guide has failed!

Still awesome, though.

Well, if your definition of "jump" is synonymous with "disagree", then yes. If you don't want additional space, feel free to not use it. If reading someone else's badly-written bio pains you, close it. Problems solved.
2048 characters doesn't constitute a novel, and I'm fairly sure many in-book synopses ARE that long.
Congratulations - you have "successfully" compared apples and hippopotomi.
Well, it's nice to know that I'll be a better person by being limited in such a frivolous way. There are still some characters that have more "story" than others.
This, we agree on. I'm so glad we could have this chat.

Heh, my wife's Mercs/TA MM is quite popular on teams.

Well yeah. Because, y'know, all the teleporting you do in combat... right?..

Another fine 20/20 hindsight view of a team you didn't actually want to be on in the first place, if you ask me.

Seems like you may still be missing the point some folks have tried to make. The team in question was apparently looking for rad/ (Radiation Emission), not /rad (Radiation Blast), in their desired Defender. And while /rad DOES contain some debuff, it's honestly insignificant compared to those in rad/. Since they may already have been looking at a team-wide defense soft-cap, your Force Field primary might very easily have been useless to their existing team composition.

In any case, I've never personally been too upset by a team rejection. If they are looking for something specific that I don't provide, they'll be prone to getting butt-hurt about not having it, and taking it out on me, if the TF goes South. And while I personally enjoy the laughs, such things are not for everyone. Most prefer to avoid the annoyance.

I use a handy Attack/Defensive macro that works like a charm. They attack the desired target and, lacking other targets, revert to BG. Obviously, once they've attacked a target, the rest of the spawn dives in, so there's no "idling" happening as long as enemies are still present. The lone exception I've found are Roman Immunes Surgeons, who have no attacks. If that is the only spawn survivor, Attack/Defensive pets ignore him after defeating everything else. Since the surgeons are usually my FIRST target, this is rarely an issue.

Agreed. There are plenty of times on a team where I've set pets on Aggressive to attack specific targets. When I'm not the target of any attacks, I don't need the mitigation. Aggressive pets are not the suicide mode most people think they are. Uncontrolled pets are. If their aggro shifts, I reinforce my previous commands. It's that simple.

Agreed. Buyers convince themselves of such things, for the most part.

Hmm... photobucket seems to be causing latest Firefox (on XP Home) to crash. Just me, or does anyone else have the same problem?

Since this point is going to be raised again, justifiably... this is effectively cutting out the "Unable to team for extended periods due to various factors" crowd.

It's been said repeatedly before: there needs to be a way for solo players to gain "Notice of the Well". A challenging way, perhaps, but A Way™.

And make no mistake: I am NOT a member of that crowd - I'm just trying to be a reasonable advocate for their interests before the hue and cry sets in. Again.

Filter what? *****?

Or nothing?..
