Also explains why this show will be going down the 'Heroes' route soon enough as well.

The new tutorial is all flash and little substance.
That said, I haven't stepped foot in a tutorial, Praetoria and new one withstanding, since 2007. Isolator was just never that important to me. *Shrugs* -
Because Bronies is a memefad that died around October 2011...
Holding onto it so tightly makes you look like the guy who was still Rickrolling in 2009.
Enjoy MLP all you want, just let the Brony nonsense die in fire like the 4Chan creation it is.
*Runs from thread bleeding from numerous hoof prints and bite marks.* -
It's a side-effect of the Super SideKicking system.

So now I'm starting to get curious...
Is this thread immortal?
Have the [Redacted] decided to enjoy the spectacle?
Is this subforum that isolated?
Hmmm...
Nah, it's just an immortal thread! -
Some of the most intense fun I've had has been on teams of 8 Blasters!

Quote:Just a little background.
So I suppose I will no longer post things about celebrities passing away.....
Right before the CH/VC changes were made by TheOcho, this subsection was indeed starting to become somewhat... cluttered.
Numerous Obit threads were created, seemingly daily, most innocent enough but some had a feel of 'haha beat everyone to the punch this time' tilt.
Thus, Obit threads became one of the central arguing points during the conversion to the new rules. With vocal detractors and supporters.
Lord of Time(RiP) was prolific during these days with daily updates on comicbook movie news and various other interesting tidbits scoured from the web. While his threads were most always OT for the section... the sheer amount of them was to much for some posters to tolerate. This led to much bickering in the land of CHVC which in turn led to a lot of Mod time spent in this neck of the woods.
One day the Mod team/Community Reps looked at their labor #'s and realized with quite a shock that they were spending much more time dealing with problem threads and posters in the CHVC section than they were in the PvP section, even the Pwnz threads!
Thus the mighty hammer fell and here we are.
So needless to say, without realizing it, the simple act of posting an Obit stirs up all those heated memories and well, there ya go. -
I've always taken the 'and more' aspect to mean anything that can be, in some form or another, important to nerd culture.
Back in 'Tha Day' that included other games.
That said...
An obit thread for the creator of The Flash is a no brainer.
An obit thread for an actor that appeared in numerous action movies is okay.
An obit thread for a sports legend is a bit of a stretch. As the connection to comics and or good Vs Evil is harder to make.
Still, posting that doesn't really bother me at all. I'd much rather have the old CHVC section of years past, where anything within reason was okay and usually informative but thems the breaks.
*this is the time when you could offer up the evidence of JoeP's influence on you as a Hero and blah blah to justify it, which isn't even needed really, as the moderators around here are pretty smart thankfully.* -
I rarely roll anything that I've already got something of. With so many combo's though, it really hasn't been an issue.
That said, a few specific sets have been deemed fun enough to replay for me;
Energy Blast and Manipulation for Blasters, gotta love ragdoll!
Fire Blast for Blasters for the AoE goodness.
Storm on anything. Storm just allows for such versatility in concepts that it isn't as limiting as some of the others.
Dark Miasma for Masterminds. It's far to potent to only use on one character. *cue evil laugh* -

*Dons old man garb* Shoot, I remember when stores weren't even on the map, *Waves cane in air* We had to actually find the buggers with our eyes!
I'm so used to periodically deleting all the junk from cluttering my inverntory that I've even been known to do it in the thick of things if I get full, I can delete a stack or two before a power finished animating usually. -
I chalk it up to the server load bubbles.
Not knowing that Ex is the ViP only server, new players just look for the one with the highest population and start there. -
I'd just like to add, do not under-estimate the power of Hurricane on a Robot MM!
My Bots/Storm was doing just fine before I got Hurricane. So fine that I relegated the power to being an 'Oh ****' last resort deal.
Then I did a stretch of soloing with him...
I soon learned how to properly use Hurricance to make
A)Myself nigh untouchable
B)My bots nigh untouchable
C)A pile of freezing bodies in the corners.

I'll just wait for the Holo-Novel version then.

I just got the complete series on DvD...
Think I'll pass. Looks shiny enough to me as is. -
I loved Crey's Hero database, so much I'm still using the pages in my sig.
I'm all for turning the D into a proper hub.
