42. That's the answer to Life, the Universe and Everything. Part of the problem of knowing the answer was the question being a bit vague. It's been postulated that having a definitive ultimate answer and ultimate question is actually exclusionary and if someone did stumble upon it, the whole Universe would disappear and be replaced by an even more inexplicable one.Quote:Originally Posted by Forbin_Project 
ROFLMAO! Oh this is priceless. Earlier I gave my age by referencing the Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy.
To my intense amusement I find that I've been neg repped for it.
So while we all laugh at the rep troll, and mock him for being so clueless, would anyone care to let him know what the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything is so he knows how old I am.
Oh, and he's saying that's his age, too. -
1. The person with the star holding up a team, because they're looking for a Defender. -.-
2. People that chat incessantly, about ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!. STFUalready! Kyo will know one of those instances.
3. People that will not move out of LOS, now matter how often you tell them. Kind of defeats the purpose of 'pulling' if you're going to just stand there and let them snipe you. Hello!!! *knocks on brainpan* Anybody in there?!?
4. An anyone KB'ing tightly packed mobs.
5. Being told what powers I MUST take on my character. -

Hehehe.
I'd try for T but I guess I missed that window. No offence to Dave, but I know Major T, and I'd love to log in and see I've been promoted to him.

57 is an age.
He's 57.
In the game, I call him my brother (long story.)
He has been playing for 42 months. -
My (in-game) bro has his 42mo badge, and is 57, but he also doesn't post to the forums.

Don't ever change.
There are several people that I run across, who posts are articulate, well thought out, and informative to read. You are one of them. Are you snarky? Sure, at times, usually because the poster to which you are responding has shown that they have the common sense of a revolving door, and continue to argue that the sky is chartreuse despite overwhelming evidence from pages of posters that it is not.
You Sir, should continue what you are doing, because it's a far cry better than most. -

When they suggested the lessening of the speed penalties, did they balance that by suggesting the lessening of the defense granted by the power?

Quote:This is so handy, and quite entertaining as well.Originally Posted by LordXenite
EDIT :: I also had to add this about hard controls... if you slot Chance for Hold in your fastest recharging blasts, you will be able to unreliably of course, hold Bosses. If you use this strategy with a low-mag melee Hold power on Bosses, your chances of holding them increase considerably. There are also other procs like that that may inflict more status effects. Using those procs can enhance a squishy character in ways that make soloing much easier for it, without throwing the challenge out the window.
I have very few Proc's and as of yet zero purp's on my main but I do have Devastation: Chance for Hold slotted in Snap Shot and Pounding Slugfest - Disorient Bonus slotted in Air Superiority (all I can remember off the top of my head.)
And now with the 0-end cost of Brawl, I see another Devastation: Chance for Hold or a Kinetic Combat: Knockdown Bonus in her future. -

I agree that the cut scene was just normal Justice silliness.
But to answer your second question on how to improve performance, I think that the Market interface should open blank, wait for you to input a search or conduct a transaction, and then load the necessary information and graphics. -

If SK is willing to continue this, I could probably use that for my next crazy server event by adding it to the pot.
As for Vista, I've never had issues running CoX on it, although Norton quite often loved to forget that CoX and the updater were allowed. One of those things is no longer on my computer.

Happy Hatching Day, Golden Beacon!

That's why I like AdBlock Plus. I can selectively block images.

Yes, DoubleTree has a shuttle to/from SJO.

Quote:So what you are saying is you ran blindly around a corner smack into a mob? Yep, I can see where mezz protection would have helped you in that situation...Originally Posted by Futurias
It isn't an exaggeration. A large part of Malta missions are 'defeat blah-blah-boss' with their 20 second mezzes, even when they are downgraded to lts.
The worst were when I didn't have good line of sight around a corner and they basically got to 'jump' on you.
If I did not have a beak free, I was pretty guaranteed a death. But sure, keep telling yourself that 'everyone solos fine'.
Lies that like will probably make it easier to keep your blinders on.
Do I hate being mezz'd? Sure. I have learned to use the tools and options available to me within the game to minimize the effects. -

Considering that replys no indicate who you were responding to, quoting or multi-quoting solve issues with miss-communication.Quote:Originally Posted by Thirty_Seven
It's a rather arbitrary forum rule. Honestly, post count is mostly meaningless, and I don't find it to be too much of an issue.
Of course there is a limit, have 4+ posts in a row can get obnoxious... especially if the person doesn't quote what it is they are responding to.
Edit: And responding to multiple quotes in the old forums was a pain in the tuckus. -

What's annoying is quoting someone, who was in turn quoting someone, and not having that quote nested.
I can understand that the Mods are trying to avoid quote-pyramids, but come one, at least give up one nested quote.
I know it can be done manually, just annoying.
As for responding to multiple posts, I like the new multi-quote feature. -

As someone who often plays one of the afor mentioned 'squishies' I have to say that I am with Claws on this. The game already offers me the ability to easily overcome a mezz in the form of inspirations.
When on my Kin I usually position myself where my teammates will gain the best benefit from my buffs/debuffs, typically hovering over the mob. I have to maintain a constant vigilance on my own status in these situations. If I'm soloing, then my strategy will obviously change. If people are unable to adopt different strategies base on their AT/Powers/situations, then it is not the fault of the games design, or inherents, or weaknesses.
As I am constantly telling my brother... "Dude, you don't get a ToHit bonus with Assault Rifle trying to shoot a foe in the face, at point-blank range." -
Doubt it has any relevance, but have you tried archiving you chatlog folder and emptying it out? I do this with my chatlog and screenshots folders, just to keep them from getting bloated and making it easier for me to find stuff.
Doubt it would actually change anything, but what the heck. -
