  1. Awesome.

    I'd vote for George before I voted for Donald Glover.

    My thoughts exactly.
  3. Cende, I'm sure you can put in a trouble ticket for that and still get eligibility, so long as it wasn't inactive for a longer period.
  4. Yeah. That was pretty bad.

    Did anyone else notice the "bottom of the underwear pants-line" without them actually wearing any pants?

    Uhm you gave the perfect example of where that didn't happen right there. Transformers Animated was awful in every way.
  6. For chrissakes, somone make Cheetara eat some food. Has the poor girl been on a hunger-strike or become bulimic?

    Also, they want to simplify Thundercats, because the original story was too complicated?!? I think that tells me everything I need to know.

    Next form MTV: Voltron! Because 5 lions merging into a giant robot is too complicated, the new Voltron is now just a lion-man robot... all ready for a crossover with Thundercats!


    Shoot me.

    Completely agree. JL was very eh.. not meh, but eh. JLU, however, was very good.

    Where, exactly, was I snarky? You complained about something you did not like, I made a suggestion that would help alleviate that problem to some degree.

    So purchase the temp power that takes you to the auction house, or get the day job that gives it to you.
  10. Very, very nice. Well done Paragon!

    However, it has a very long cooldown time.
    What does that mean exactly? 15min? An Hour? 2?

    So...WHY are they still locked out for PCs? It makes no sense!
    I talked to NS about this at the M&G. He said he'd really like to do it, but WW wouldn't let him, because she enjoyed Alpha's tears of rage.



    I keed... I KEED.

    Another OCD thing I do is to make sure I never have more than 1 of each type of uncommon piece of salvage at a time. After playing a game since beta you develop some pretty difficult habits to break...

    It's the best way to increase your odds of getting rare salvage... duh!

    Ditto. Of course the second part is less of a big deal following the baseline damage buff.

    L-R column 1 red/yellow, 2-3 green, 2 columns of purples/oranges 1 column of blues (level dependent) Largest inspirations on the bottom, smallest on top.

    Fix'd, but otherwise agreed.

    Wonder which Dev will be next to leave the game?

    Not that he's a dev, but damn that was a spot-on prediction otherwise.
  16. I'm both sad to see you go, and leery of your replacement.

    Best of luck in your new endeavor!
  17. I suspect we won't hear anything until 1-2 weeks into Jan, as people should start earning it late Jan-early Feb.

    Though I am curious...

    I really, really miss old arcades. I think if someone did it right, and targeted an arcade towards the 25-40ish crowd, with alcohol served, it could do reasonably well.

    If they overthrow him, and if the process of overthrowing him destroys the Sonic Fences, do you feel that the Resistance would share some responsibility in any of the repercussions of that?

    You may argue that the price is worth it, but those responsible for bringing deaths to others, inadvertent or not, in the pursuit of a "righteous cause" or not, still bear responsibility for the consequences of their actions.

    This small taste of the Praetorian Hamidon has been in the game since GR launched, and internally, we've all been wondering and guessing how long it might be before one of you guys caught a glimpse or better yet, a photo. And now you have--bravo!

    Depictions of Hamidon that you see scattered around Praetoria are merely a charicature of the real thing: artists' renderings of something seen only from a distance and poorly understood. Hamidon has changed since players last confronted the creature in Primal Earth, but the story here is just beginning to unfold...
    Oh.

    I think I spotted that at least a half-dozen times so far. I didn't think it was anything extraordinary, so I never commented on it, lol.

    My feeling is: see this in IMAX 3D, or don't bother with the 3D at all. The non-IMAX 3D was a bit dark, and the 3D does not add as much as I'd have hoped (like Avatar does).

    As thoroughly irritating as some of Nether's posts may have been in the last few months, I can vouch that, at least in the past, he's been one of the more beneficial posters in the community, dispensing good advice on many an occasion.

    This is probably irritates me more than if he'd never been constructive, as I could then just ignore him.

    More like "I'm not saying you're ugly", "I'm not saying you're rude", "I am saying you don't know what you're talking about."

    Now (by those statements), the person in question may (or may not) be ugly and/or rude, but they're definitely clueless.

    I used my "it's not" statements in an attempt to prevent people from assuming that those issues were the basis for my objections to the "review".

    Sadly, I did not foresee the confusion that my use of the term "not" would cause. My failing... clearly.
