  1. Looks like I got my times mix'd up, Hyper looks to be on a speedier boat than me.
    Mine doesn't hit the docks until 6pm PDT. He must have upgraded to an Arneson Surface Drive.
  2. 8baller, I was just starting to wonder where you had gone off to.
  3. I mean haven you given any thought as to where his/her powers cam from? For example my Plant/Thorn Dom (I know not spines, but I think they have the same options.)

    These are older images, I actually updated her thorns to have red tips. Using the metallic spines gives you these ice picks and go very well with my flora based character.

    Now with /fire or /elec there are spines that look something like you would see on Godzilla (at work so can't make any new images), and depending on the colours you were thinking of using, those may be more appropriate.
  4. How about some info on the character. Origin, bio, etc. It would give us a clue as to what you might be looking for.

I do, and don't mind admitting it.

    I don't have any problems if minions can't stun. When they can, and I'm out of breakfrees, I tend to die.

    Let me, as a defender, get an extra +1 mag against stunning, so that the sucker punch from a stray minion doesn't lead to a concrete kiss. If I get overwhelmed by a flock of them, then that's my bad. I can get an extra mag against holds, and the bad AI when you are slept (AI tends to ignore you, and my toggle recharges) does me ok when I get snoozed. Its the adhoc minion stun that isn't ramping up my fun factor.
    Just need some clarification, do you also run at +4/8?

    If we could jog this an hour later, I'd chuck a toon at this.
    Hyper and I share the same boat.

    Pyro, these are awesome. If you're officially sick of buttons, perhaps you can uummm... oh I don't know, make a tute...

    I found one for using Paint.net, but I just can't get it to work.

    I'd find that to be pretty damn immersion-breaking.
    I can see that be immersion breaking. However, from what I saw of CO, I never once saw the same name used twice.

    Not to say it didn't happen, just that I never saw it.

    And even with that type of naming system, I saw names like "To Elite 4 U" o.O
    At this point it time, no, you probably wont see too many duplicates or triplicates. Five years down the road (granting that CO is still here) I'm pretty sure it will be a lot more common.

    And when you click the Reply button, the link attached to it is this:
    http://boards.cityofheroes.com/priva...do=newpm&pmid=

    That leads to a blank message. If you copy and paste the 1234567 from the original URL and then paste that to the end of the URL after you've click the Reply button and then press enter, the PM reply form gets filled out with the quoted text from the original PM.

    It's annoying, but it's the only workaround I've found for it. Somehow the &pmid isn't being set to the Reply button for us.
    So far, this is the only problem I'm having with the new forums. (Firefox 3.5.3, with AdBlock Plus and .NET framework add-ons.)

    I did have the problem with not staying logged in, but a complete cache/history/etc dump, and restart solved that problem.

    From my point of view, if you're thinking of bacon mid-coitus, then one or both of you is doing something terribly wrong.

    (Unless it occurred on the breakfast table... during breakfast...)
  12. *sigh*

    Perhaps someone can post updates on the forums after each TF, for those of us who work...

    EVERY. *******. WEEKEND.

    *sigh*

    It's the top servers by Hero-Con attendance. I don't see you guys on the list however.

    I'm sure it's some kind of mistake. I mean, there's no way you guys are so lame that there would be less of you there than us right?

    Really?

    So Jack in Iron and Eochai combining to become an invisible Mary MacComber must have been a fluke.
  15. Not quite 500mil on my main, 400 of it due to a contest. About 300mil on her twin over on Justice, 250 of that came from the sell of 1 crafted IO.

    I remember back when I was still on the trial, and some random hero came up and traded me 250k, for nothing. I thought I was rich.

    I think they are under the mistaken impression that because the rep system is anonymous to us, that it must also be anonymous to the Mods. Something that they are likely to find out, is not anywhere close to the truth.

    It seems that someone has a grudge against the AE Contest, as others who have also started threads in their respective server sections have also been -rep'd.

    Hopefully this will be something they do every year. I'd love to submit the Arc I'm working on, but I don't foresee getting it done in the next week.
  18. I'd be down for a little Settlers of Catan action, or Munchkins.
  19. LOL

    Someone dinged me for "crossposting"

    Simple minds, simple pleasures, I guess.

    I heard this one last night on my server's main badge channel. I quickly and unceremoniously slammed the theory into the dirt.
    Hopefully with an excessive grinding of your hooves.

    Welcome to the asylum... err... to Protector. Straight jackets are available 24/7, free of charge. Most of us will have spares.
  22. Try cutting the bacon up, then cooking it, then adding the eggs. Love scrambled eggs with bacon in it.

    As for most extreme bacon moment? Making a BLT (bacon, lettuce, tomato) sandwich, sans L&T.
