    HI! the Awesome Avengers (AA) is recruiting for PvP types if this sounds like you and you enjoy a party with a non stop up hill battle against odds we dont have a chance on beating then this is the SG for you.

    Who Can Forget Aura's Legendary Cameraspin?

    So good (That's the cam spin video, not a rickroll or something.)


    Does anyone have a copy of Triox's original YOU DISOEBED TEH TRUCE!!!! screenie? That was a classic.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Heh, I actually rolled an AR Blaster referencing that in the bio...such an epic vid.

    I'll try to find some Triox posts on the forums, that might still be linked here somewhere.

    Sorry to see you guys break up and drop off the ladder. We were looking forward to matching vs you guys.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Well, like someone from AA told me last night, we'll tag up in the TPvPL tonight and next week and...who knows, your group may pick up some of our players.

    Always sad to see a group break up though, makes me respect a team like OS all the more.

  4. Agreed Psoma.

    Just don't take dUmb off the ladder, they're one of those groups I keep wanting to play over and over and over.

    Thanks for everything Johnny, you were 100% class.
  5. I've applied with Awesome Avengers but they need to see me in practice first and decide.
  6. All I ask is that you not let up if you face me in the ladder, or anywhere. Least you can do as competitors.

    I already miss Yosef and Shin though.
  7. I really have no problems with anyone in PE and I learned.

    Johnny, you made things light and Beta added a lot of structure. I just wasn't having much fun toward the end.

    Sandri, you're a solid, solid Sonic. If you apply to another team, best of luck.
  8. Same Sandri, best of luck in the league.
  9. Please remove @Neuronia.

    It was an interesting time everyone. Good luck.
  10. Wow, someone's going to be gunning for the top spot!

  11. You guys should train Elf Stalker, that would be epic lulz.
    And it might work out for you
  12. Welcome to the hero ladder guys.
  13. -Hamidon's 'evolution', it's explained in a few story arcs but I'd like to see a cutscene

    -The Hollowing, love to see the Trolls and such devastate the former Eastgate.
    -The Darknening of Astoria
    -Rikti Homeworld
    -Early histories of the Freedom Phalanx
    -History of the Sky Raiders
  14. It is indeed the best guide Serps has ever written, outclassing his Plant/Thorns guide by far.

    One thing though, I think they changed player pets to not react as enemies when someone is Confused...so that trick might not work.

    I have an old half-SOd Nin/Nin and he's very fun to play...there's usually a wake of dead bodies in any mission he's in, half of those being my party as they die from my over-aggroed mobs.

    I'll have to re-read this after a few drinks to see if it gets funnier.

    As of right now I own 459M Infamy, after market fees, worth of Respec Recipes. I will let you know how much these are worth in two weeks.

    I like this move a lot. However, it butchered my schemes.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Heheh. Maybe they noticed your stash!

    THE DEVS ARE OUT TO GET THE EBIL MARKETEERS!



    [/ QUOTE ]

    Eeeh I wouldn't go that far Tripp, but one of my wishes always was that there would be events, precipipated by the Developers, that would affect the markets.

    For example, crashes due to sudden availability of items, either ingame or out, or to events. Maybe an increase in some of the Pool C drops lamented by many as being too rare.

    Anything that shakes me, as an occasional marketeer, out of my comfort bubble is a good thing.

    Remember folks:

    Everything ingame is property of NCSoft and you are renting it from them. No room to complain if ingame items lose or gain worth at any point, it's their items.

    I wouldn't worry too much. There are always impatient people that will pay 10s of millions for Respec recipes. Now, myself, I won't be anymore because $9.99 real cash >>>>>>>> a bunch of ingame influence for ease of availability.

    Again, great news!

  17. Awesome!

    Thanks for the option; I usually have enough with my vetspecs and the Task Forces, but this looks nice.

    So...will we be able to nab respecs for free on Test Server, since we do with the name changes already?

    I'm not saying that You Mods are not totally in your right to enforce it. ...The only point I wish to make is that it might be a BAD BUSINESS DECISION if it's seen by enough people to be randomly Dictatorial and therefore ANTI-AMERICAN. This country was built on conscientious objections and scofflaws. Insta-Banning such people may only endear them more as Martyrs and eventually have the opposite of the desired effect if things are taken too far. (and I can almost guarantee they will be)

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Excellent diversionary tactic except:

    -No one will miss any forum trolls, posters will just go back to playing/life occupations/posting. If more trolls pipe up, the banstick will come down on them too. If the mods decide this is it, trolls can't win, period.

    -This isn't "America", it's an MMO with a Staff enforcing the rules. We're posting here at THEIR leisure. We aren't entitled to post here anymore we are entitled to our ingame loot, it's their stuff they lend to us.

    But, feel free to make yourself a martyr for showing up the moderators and the rules...

    P.S. Thanks for the update Castle, I generally keep communication from Devs on the downlow, hope to hear more from you guys on Issue 13.

    Use other words.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Odd point that.

    Officially, the following sentence has no cussing:

    "I'll farking cuss on this gorram forum any time I frelling want to."

    Yet any geek worth his salt knows what I said.

    Is this allowed?

    [/ QUOTE ]]

    It comes down to intent I suppose.
    The 'seven words' are likely a no-no. Best to just use standard fare and not incite anything.

    In your example, Bill, I suspect the mods would let that slide.
    If more people try to subvert the filters that too may find its way into the 'naughty bin'.

    Overall, great moves by the Mod crew. :-)
  20. First this is great news.

    The forums had become anarchic of late with the snowflake posts about nerfs and the lulzy trolling as well, glad to see the mod-nukes are being armed.

    I do have one question though:

    Whenver I report an exploit (and boy have I in the past two months) the canned response tells me to discuss the issue on the forums.

    If I find X produces an insanely quick reward thanks to an exploit, do I continue using the Petition feature and alerting Posi/Castle or do I mention it here and risk the banstick and the collapse of the gaming infrastructure?
  21. Fantastic guide Philotic, thank you for taking the time writing it.

    Two issues:

    The "Don't be a tool" factor, very very important. Was on a MoSTF run on a Storm Defender that had previously completed it...kept being told what toggles to use, that I was ruining the run for people, etc...you need a certain amount of trust in your teammates' abilities, while having directed focus.

    The flattery thing is key...when we're doing a longer task force I always ask "Is everyone having fun?" "Thanks for the great buffs" "You're clearing that whole map yourself!" Basic psychology, people like to feel validated.

    Very nice guide.
  22. I am very glad ot hear this...I have new friends joining but they are hesistant to do so when they have to buy two games.

    I know a lot of people that stopped playing because they didn't want to shell out more money to access bases.

    I love hearing this, the only thing that could make this better is if we could access content for both games somehow...perhaps through the Ouroboros system
  23. Really nice...so is Incarnate the theme of the next Issue?

    More post-50 content, nice =)
  24. Wicked...

    ...Fetish/leather costume pieces?

    Ooooooooooooooo!
