Oh, you dirty, naughty girl.

I've always said the Irish will sleep with anyone. This is proof we're all Irish inside.

Yes, the moon is smaller but it's farther away.

Quote:Awesome. Come lay eggs on my cat.
I've run this through my Durakken TrueIntentions(TM) translator and came up with this:
Hi Beautiful people!
It's me, your old friend, Durakken here to tell red side players to rejoice, for now you will have access to many more items and your magic salvage will sell quickly for a reasonable profit.
And you blue side players -- don't be blue -- because you just got a few thousand more players to play with! Your salvage costs will go down and your profit per sale will go up.
You don't have to worry if you are red or blue because everyone can buy and sell from everyone else and travel freely from Paragon City to the Rogue Isles and back again. And even if you have no friends, you can just send yourself e-mails and pretend that you have a secret admirer!
Life is great! -
Didn't Superman just turn 29 in a recent comic?
Edit: Just checked -- yes, Superman's official age is 29. -

I came here to read threads and chew bubblegum.
And I'm all outta bubblegum. -

But what if they were infinitely strangled in their infinite cribs? Then what?

Quote:There are sculptors who've done this for players, but it's expensive one-off type of stuff.There are some of the Deviant Art crew that do this. Aren't there? Seems like I've seen people post threads and offer the services for commission.
In the future, say with CoH 2, it would be nice if the Devs included some sort of export code that allowed for rapid prototyping (aka 3D printing) of figurines. I don't know if there is a standardization of code in that technology at the moment (probably not), but the costs have been coming down quite a bit over the past few years. A few years ago someone even figured out a way to do it with clay, so you can actually get a kiln-fired ceramic object from the process. I'd personally want a plastic figurine, but the wide scale of innovation from numerous materials to size (Audi uses RP to make some of their show cars) has really opened up the field.
I think it's only a matter of time before such a thing is offered en masse to MMO players. -
Quote:Polish? What do you have against Bulgarians? Answer the question!I don't care if I get into the beta, all I want to know and see is..
PEOPLE MAKING SURE GOING ROGUE IS POLISH AND BUG FREE!!
Quote:Oh, and if it's filled with bugs, I'll take a pound of flesh from every beta tester that was in it, I know where you live, cause your closet needs some cleaning! -
The "instant gratification" attitude is extremely immature in my opinion. I think most people just want to see the new shiny things first rather than actually help out with the beta process. I've never desired to be with the in-crowd, so it's never bugged me when I don't get invited to something like this. Besides, it comes out in, what? Seven weeks or something. It's summer, go outside.

Quote:That was then, this is now.The reason I ask is because I thought they said that those items went into a special storage when a character swapped sides and would be returned if and when the character switched back.
I suspect the biggest motivator was the idea people would be gaming the system to profit. -
Sweet land o' liberty! That's amazing!

And will you forget it? You will not, because that cognitive dissonance means it sticks in your brain. That's Soviet propaganda, baby.

Quote:Which will win? Badging or alting? Stay tuned true believers, the answer may surprise you!I'm afraid I may have lost my altitus. It started a few weeks ago when I was helping a friend work on badges. He's up to 666+ badges now. Meanwhile, my "nominal" badger and main toon Mouse Police had a measly 400 or so. I decided to do something about that.
After a respec and rebuild to make the toon more PvP friendly and also more TF-exempted friendly, I began working on badges in earnest. At the moment I'm at 619, and working my way through the Ouro badges. After that I have a lot of PvP badges to work on, and random Gladiator badges and other stuff.
But I've hardly played any other character in the past 3 weeks. I have four defenders that I'd recently played up to the low 40's, and they haven't budged from there. Another defender is 47 and holding. I have big plans to purple out a war shade, but she's still level 33. And after listening to Steampunk-related music lately I came up with several Steampunk-related toons, but I haven't done a thing with them... every night when I log in, I just want to get more badges for Mouse.
What's a poor altaholic to do? -
Quote:Truly embracing your altitis takes devotion, determination, discipline and a delightful degree of joie de vivre.Holy crap. I thought I had altitis. You guys have done gone alphabetized your alts and took screenies. I just have a handwritten list of all my alts, listed by server.
Between my two accounts now I have like over 140 alts. The few that I've deleted are lost forever. I MIGHT have a couple of them still written down somewhere though...
Guess I'll just have to alphabetize all of my alts now. Screenshots might be a while.
