Quote:Oh I didn't say it was possible to do without a ton of problems, just a neat idea that would give the D a bit more of the club type feel. I have more issue with people misquoting the no Powers rule to no fighting at all.
The problem is discussed ad nauseam. The issue is, you can't really sit down and make a list of everything that is considered 'fighting', and what it not considered 'fighting'.
If there was a rule that didn't allow punching people in Pocket D, then what happens to a guy who wants to joke with his best pal and punch him in the shoulder?
If there was a rule that didn't allow any sort of violence in Pocket D, then what would happen to Super-Hero/Super-Villain taunts? That's violence, in my opinion.
Bottom line is, you can't turn Pocket D into a hippie zone. And you can't define a strict rule on what is, or isn't allowed in Pocket D. On top of all this, you can't control people.
But now I'm just going off topic. Sorry.
*not issue as in they are bad for being the way they are, but for trying to for people to their way of thinking. Sort of God-moddish if forcing your opinions and ideals on others* -

Oh, I hate when they do the Power posing also, I jsut find it funny how many people say there is not fighting in the D, when a standard fist fight would be possible, Although the offending people would more than likely get kicked out and banned. That would be a neat feature for the D.

Quote:I thought it was a no-powers policy in the D. Basically making everyone mortal after BaB wrecked the place with his powers.I call that godmoding, mostly, and avoid it and people who do it. Especially in the D, where the canon clearly states no fighting.
I've done what I call RPvP, which is in the arena usually. The folks involved can decide "okay, this many KOs means X, or this result means Y, and if this other thing happens, the result is M." and it's worked out well. You do need mature players, though, who don't have to have everything go their way 100% of the time.
While I say "go with the flow", I always reserve the right to not RP and simply walk away from someone who is instigating RP I feel uncomfortable with, or who is trying to take advantage of me. This goes double for strangers coming up to me in the D (the few times I am there.) I know some folks who feel that they have to treat everything that happens in-game as IC, but I'm not one of them. -

Ok, My worthless $.02...
Pressure points do work, but they can be difficult to apply properly. I personally have gotten out of a choke hold by using a pressure point, and have use one on the hands when I was playing defensive line and the o-lineman decided to try and hold my jersy.
That being said, the MMA is a nice sport to watch, although it has gotten way watered down from what it used to be back when the UFC first started.
Martial Arts as taught properly with pressure points, philosiphy, and mediation, is unfortunately out of my price range to take ( I was looking at some Tai Chi dojos here). The fight only ones are less expensive and therefore more popular, plus a lot of people tend to take it more for a fast self defense than for the art of it. -

Thanks. hopefully soon, I"ll have an updated library with even more stuff. Take a while to go through and clean things up and get new music sorted the way I want it to be.

Degeneration (My Show) Will be open request night. You can go to The Cape's DJ Library Search to search my library.
I prefer to take request via in game e-mail but I will take them through IM and other means. IM info is on the staff page of The Cape website.
Broadcast will be from Pocket D!
((People looking for some RP are always welcome to my shows. I tend to be RP light, but there are others at the show who go from no RP to RP Heavy)) -
*kicks the Trash Can back at Bay*
You changed it so that I would have to draft last again. I know you fixed it that way. :P -
Eh, Bay just cheats. He fears me. Second straight year I had to draft last. *Smacks Bay with a 2x4*

Quote:He got them last year and kept them, and he still didn't win it all. Heck he had only the second best regular season record. *grins at Bay* He won't go anywhere this year either.You got Peterson AND Brady?!? What the heck are the people in that league smoking? Assuming a clean bill of health for that team, they might as well hand you the trophy right now.
Oh, and Ochocinco will be fine this year. He stopped the negative talk (at least to his own team) and started working out more this off-season to get back to pro-bowl form. He looks darn good so far. -
