    I'm always a fan of your videos. Perhaps you could highlite the ingame improvements with the zones, costumes, etc over the years?

    I dont really like the day job badges. Bad idea to make badges for not playing your favorite characters however because of it i probably have 15 more 50s then i would have so i guess i see what they were doin.

    I wont miss "needing" to log out in a certain spot. And i wont be pissed when i log back in to realize i just was in the wrong spot and i missed 5 days. That was frustating.

    please NO MORE day jobs in future issues!!!!!
    Congratulations!

    I finished all of my DJ badges last week, and your OP hit the nail right on the head!

    Guess they're not the only 'overly sensitive' one, aye?
    Spoiling for a fight are we, Mountie?

    Thank you, Mr. Tyger42 for helping me introduce some logic into the system.

    When I point out that the OP's problem might be their overly-sensitive nature instead of the game, I'm suddenly the antichrist.

    Wow... touchy crowd today. You must be a member of the IBTC. Need some kleenex? Nevermind, you're probably carrying some already.

    But seriously, I'm done with reading whatever spews out of your mouth in the future. You are WAY too sensitive for my liking. Welcome to global ignore.

    In your opinion.

    Billionth, huh? Exagerate much? Are you also overly sensitive about your chest?

    Yea, welcome to global ignore.

    Ah, the crux of the problem.

    As others have pointed out, there are plenty of RL women that meet or exceed the right-end of the slider.

    As others have also pointed out, there aren't too many "realistic" things in this superpowered game of ours. Do you normally run in excess of 30mph, or jump 9 feet into the air?

    Your sensitivity to your RL issue shouldn't have any bearing on what the rest of us are doing with our slider.
  8. I just pulled the EB's. I didn't even have to deal with the rikti and/or portals.

    Hey, face it... that was a crap solution. "Change your alignment" is never the right answer.

    To the OP, if you can't solo it then try to find a team. I play on red side and there were plenty of people doing the arc last night.
  10. 3 billion and it's yours.

    Send me a pm here, or contact me in game @Thaumator
  11. How long? Until they finally shut down the Portal Corp on blue side. THAT'S been going on for years.

    Crowd control? Support class? You do know this is the Corruptor forums and not the Dominator / Controller forums, right?

    As a matter of fact, I am enjoying both of them

    For future reference, @No Torius is an excellent person to deal with.

    Very true. That one recipe probably netted him around 200 mill.

    I almost spit out my coffee when I read that.

    Try to say this out loud -

    "Hey Devs, you need to have a serious conference style think tank day!"

    Go ahead, I dare you

    It's *almost" sig worthy for the lulz.

    PM me with your offer.

    I would have to say the pre-SO lvl 1-21 grind gets old. Once you reach 22 (and can slot lvl 25 SO's) the game is much more enjoyable for me again.

    You must have me confused with someone that doesn't know how to play. Just because I'm referencing a scenario I've seen time and time again does not mean I was the one doing it

    Did you just turn your back on someone you were fighting ie aggro'd? AND they're still alive?

    Not true. If they were placated, you would get to critical one of them and quickly remove that threat without getting squished yourself.

    For you, perhaps. When you assassinate someone for 1500+ damage, you've just painted a great big bullseye on your forehead. I don't care who's tanking, the mobs do notice that. I can see many benefits to changing Placate from single target to AoE... both on teams AND solo.
