Okay, that's better than mine. ^_^ -
Location: Steel Canyon, Natural Store
Weirdness: Logging out next to the counter gets you stuck behind it when you log in.
Culprit: The Door behind said counter. Logging in has you come through that door.
Just wondered if anyone else can duplicate this?
/stuck gets you out, but I thought it was funny as hell. And yes, I bugged it in game already. -
Yes Recluse is dead.
However, that didn't stop our Ghost Widow.
[edit] -
Those look fantastic!
Echoing DarkEther here, but what materials are you using? -
Could be they came to an agreement. Hami would stop rampaging against the population if Cole kept them under control.

The demonstrations over Ski Times were resolved yesterday, when Back Alley Brawler caged Moderator 08 for a formal tomatoeing. Moderator 08 was quoted as saying: "I am just a patsy!"

He will always be my favorite.
Dolphin
Environmental Activist
Origin/AT: Science: MC/Kinetic Controller
Security Level: 50
Real Name: Phineus Triton Orion
Known Aliases: Fishbreath, Fins, Shark-Bait
Species: Human/Dolphin Hybrid
Age: 6
Height/Weight: 7'9" / 250lbs
Eye/Hair Color: White / Fin
Citizenship: Citizen of the United States with no criminal record
Current Residence: Peregrine Island, Paragon City, RI

Dolphin was the first of Crey Industries Paragon Protector: Poseidon Project to merge man with aquatic mammals. His hero name is simply Dolphin due to his DNA splice with a bottlenose dolphin, plus the fact that the name stuck.
He has since severed his relations with Crey Industries. He won a public legal suit against them in 2006, claiming independence as a sentient being under the Civil Liberties Act of 2005. That act amended the Constitution to include beings not of human origin as citizens of the United States by way of birth. Also cited was the 14th Amendment's Equal Protection Clause.
Crey Industries' failed defense was largely in part due to the benevolent nature of dolphins in the public eye, and the petitions of thousands of Americans. Petitions were submitted by many organizations, including many marine based foundations such as Sea World International, of which he is now a spokesman.
Crey Industries and The Countess were publicly humiliated from the televised proceedings. After the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Dolphin's favor, Congress began an investigation into Crey's Genetics Department. Those proceedings are currently stalled. -

Hold up. Isn't he an Incarnate? -
Quote:LMAO That's Brilliant!The A-HA moment for my grav/kin controller Sorina Tavarisch (my second 50) came as the result of a joke. Got invited by an SG mate to help her beat up on Anti-Matter (her on an Inv/En tank, me on the grav/kin troller). We go stomp on him, and as we exit the portal, my character whips out a cell phone and 'calls' Positron to tell him, "Hey, we just kicked your Praetorian version's a**... da... da... don't worry, you're better looking... mm-hmm... we'll discuss it over coffee... da... okay, see you later."
My SG mate cracks up laughing and immediately tells our whole SG, "Tava's in love with Positron." Which led to injokes, a developing storyline, and the next thing I knew, Tava took on a life of her own.

Dolphin became a real person to me when he first went up against that big frikken octopus thingy in the bay. Sixteen of us were wailing on the cephalopod's noggin when someone, I can't remember who, turned to me and said, "You ... Fishstick ... Yeah you ... Why can't you control this thing, mindbender? Aren't you supposed to be like the king of the fishes or something?" and Dolphin replied through my fingers without my conscious thought "I'm a bloody experiment! Now shut up and hit it again!"similarly
Krotus ... Ahhh, Krotus... the skinny clanking wank. He became real during a pick up Task Force. No one on the team knew what we were doing, especially the tank. Krotus thought bubbled "Mein Gott, I just want to kill all of you idiots!" Trouble is, he actually thought bubbled it. lol He went from a victim of an experiment, to the sick freak that designed the experiment right at that moment. ^_^
Sorozat was completely different. Originally Emerald Shield, I played him with my wife on the other computer playing Shield's wife. A pair of Rad defenders that struck fear into the wicked. Anyway, CoV came out and the wife stopped playing due to lack of interest. (She likes swords and sorcery games better) I spun it that Shield's wife died, and rerolled him as a Corruptor with the same powersets. Same guy, but now an undercover Longbow Agent... that they lost contact with after a few months. He became real to me when he started raging against the Goldbrickers, wailing on them like there was no tomorrow. Yeah, he went a little barmy. What ya gonna do?
Vohz started to breathe right at his conception. Once I started to write his background, my fingers didn't stop for over an hour. His background was so heartbreaking that he became real at level 1. -
Quote:And the first thing that comes to mind when I saw that title...
I came into this game just about 3 years ago. I still absolutely love it.

This one seems more appropriate, but yeah. ^_^ -
Quote:Yeah yeah yeah....Except we didn't have capes yet. I'm sorry...I'm sorry...I guess I just have too much Tony Shalhoub in me.
Great post.

Nearly six years ago, the game industry was ramped up to a higher standard. Gamers and non gamers alike, from all over the globe, were given the opportunity to truly live in a virtual comic book of their imagination, where their ideas for a better world could be expressed in a confederation of masks, capes, aerial assaults, fast feet, and numerous pummelings.
The 'Nuff Saids and the Up, Up, and Aways were completely floored by the ordeal. Where the Nuff Saids kicked up a fuss, the Up, Up, and Aways had an initial Don't Ask, Don't Tell attitude about people living as their favorite character. Meanwhile, they were busy trying to find a way to cash in on the explosive idea.
As for the rest of us... We got the chance to do what most dreamed of doing ever since we read comic books under the covers with a flashlight. Instead of marveling at the exploits of our favorite spandex clad heroes, we could become the hero of our own story and save the day.
An unintentional side effect of this was acutely felt by those of us who are physically challenged. Instead of being confined, we could stand tall, and knock the sense out of ignorant and morally challenged 'people'.
Of course, there were some conceptual challenges. Things that people wanted to do but couldn't, due to the limitations of the programming or the powers that be didn't conceive of in the beginning. However, more often than not most those challenges were overcome one by one, and are still being offered and added as time goes by.
I'm not sure if folks can remember what it was like just waiting for this to come into being. Checking daily for reports on this extremely innovative idea. It has been a rather long time ago.
Naysayers and grumpy people love to bash on this that or another. I've been guilty of that as well from time to time. However, no one can say that they wished this never existed.
This game was a stroke of genius and a flash of brilliance that continues to outshine the rest of the industry, and I just wanted to let the powers that be know simply how much I've appreciated all of their hard work.
Here's to the future! -
Quote:What's sad about all this, is that I think one of their mentalist pulled a RL whammy on me, and made me sleep through the adventure.
But hey! BBQ sauce! -
"Protests over speed times for medals reached a fever pitch, as this crowd of two portrays. Statesman wasn't available for comment, but Back Alley Brawler was quoted as saying '----ing whiners.'"

Quote:A decisive non answer. You address my question without addressing my question. *blank faced thumbs up*If we attempted to answer every question or concern directed our way, we'd 1) fail and 2) not have any time to actually work on the actual game.
If I wasn't talking about mobs and he wasn't talking about logic, then ... yeah we're polar opposites. o_0 -
My old complaint is worn and tired.
It also seems to fall on deaf dev ears, who don't explain why it can't be changed/updated, or simply wont change them.( Sorry BaBs... truth.)
All Maps are Stale and Predictable.
All of them: Police Radio. Newspaper. Contacts.
When you know where mobs are on any given map you come across, it's time to change the d-mned map.
Put in a randomizer, change things up, SOMEthing. -
Let's see if I have this right...
The Rikti are going to invade the Shadow Shard to hit the Ski Resort?
That's like invading Tahiti: Guaranteed, but pointless.
Regardless, *flexes mental muscles* Bring it on, you basackwards speaking Yoda wannabes! -
