he also spent way too much time on focusing on non-IO builds

[/ QUOTE ]

And? IOs are OPTIONAL. If he focused on IO builds it would encourage more farming for inf and drops. Which as far as I can tell isn't what the Davs want.

a great little community resource we have on Defiant.

[/ QUOTE ]

Agreed. I've teamed with a lot of members of defiant events. And almost every time I start a TF I can find members.

Cya lighthouse, take care. (if he even reads this thread )

Filling prevents you from getting REAL time invites. There, that good enough reason for you?

[/ QUOTE ]

Em no...

because it takes 2 mins... and because that was not in the list of reasons I was replying to.

Plus the fact that it doesn't warrant the hostile responses that it receives.

[/ QUOTE ]

So if someone said they don't want to fill for you because it prevents them from getting real team invites, you would say "not a good enough reason"...?

If you asked someone if they wanted to join a team and they said no thx, would you asked them why?

Edit: Plus, in them 2 minutes, I could have asked someone if I could join their team or got to the mission I was heading for. Or, just by chance the same time you invite me to fill for you, someone else was going to ask me if I want to join their team but my name suddenly goes gray.

That last bit probably makes no sense, but it is almost 1am.

"Hi, I am farming a map.. would you like to join me for some XP and Inf or if your not busy would you fill a spot in the team for 2 mins and I will be as fast as I can mapping it, ty Donna x"


[/ QUOTE ]

I've been asked to fill before by a tell very similer to this. I politly declined and got a 'thx for reply' back. But I've had 'can you fill for me?' and I said something like 'please read my search comment' and I got a 'sorry :S' back. Which I thought was nice.

No matter how polite I'm asked to fill. I wont. Simple dimple (as my sister always says). I pay my subs, you pay your subs. We both play the game how we like so why change others play stile just to please yourself?
Unless the person who wants me to fill offers to pay for my sub, it will always be no.

I've been having a good read of both EU and US 'Rude Tell' threads and I'm shocked at how they /ignore people of some, IMO, rather silly things. For instance..

Yesterday, I was debuting a new heroine in Atlas on Freedom and the following happened:

<StrangerWhomIHaveNeverMet> "Your costume makes you look fat"
<Me> "I will be sure to go on a diet. Thank you for your considered and caring advice."
/ignore.


[/ QUOTE ]

huh? You ignored someone for calling your computer generated fictional character fat?

There are many I could quote but that would take a while and looking at the EU thread hardly anyone /ignores the other person. Which is a wonder to me. Did they forget to mention maybe?

I've had a few rude tells (most I've forgotten or can barely remember) but never ignored any of the players responsible. I have ignored people for other reasons but now the only people I have on my ignore list are inf spammers.

Am I being silly or are we EU players a little less /ignore happy?

[ QUOTE ]
Thanks guys, sounds like a waste of time TBH.

Wooot, how right you are.

You got served..

Willpower brutes rock!

I AM SPARTICUS!

I dooo a little flexing on the catwalk....

I got this the other day from a lvl 29...

Him: Please can ibe on ur team

Me: Hey, sorry you can't join team as I'm lvl 42 and side-kicking a lvl 32, and noone else on team to SK you

Him: i dont mind i wont get stuck in too much

Me: you wont get any exp though

Him: ill get loads (really old player returning maybe?)

Me: you wont, you have to be between lvl 38 and 47 to get any exp from my missions

Him: i dont care wether i get xp or not (huh?)

Me: and not to mention you will die a lot and get debt so it would be pointless, I suggest you ask someone else for a team as no point joining mine, sorry

Him: k i suppose ur too hi

Me: plus if you join with no sk then we all loose exp, so yer we are to high (is that right? - I'm such a newb sometimes)

He didn't reply after that. I recognised the toon name pretty much right away though. He had been following me and the Mrs around Paragon the day before for some reason.

QFT.

The_Phantoms, Tuarus. You really don't do sarcasm do you?

EDIT: Also, if you look back at efan78's last 200 posts, you will see they are mostly jolly and not at all troll like.

The only trouble with this current build of pvp is that its NOT newb friendly and its not Exeperienced friendly either

[/ QUOTE ]

That can only be a good thing IMO. PvP newbies can't just swan in beat the [censored] out of someone in a few moves and neither can experienced players.

Is it friday already?...

I am going to try out the PvP changes when I13 goes live. I haven't PvPed in a while because I thought it was unbalanced. If a defender now has a chance to win in PvP then that is surely a sign that its better.

5-A BOOOM! I sunk your battle ship...

Happy Birthday 'Nanas, have fun and hope you're not sick from eating to much cake.

Happy Birthday Damz, havea good day.

The only prob I have is that someone has the cheek to rip off a well known character from another game. /petitioned

[ QUOTE ]
Happy Birthday...so, level 18 huh? You gain the new ability 'Legal Drinking'.

This does of course take all the fun out of mischievous illegality...

[/ QUOTE ]

....and also generates kids asking you to buy booze for you.

Happy Birthday! Have a jolly good day young-chap!!

Sorry to see another vet leave. Hope you decide to return Mr Drath. Good luck in your real life adventures.

Necro/Dark MM, fight zombies with zombies!

Happy Birthday! Have fun.

This isn't a chapter; it's not even a page.

[/ QUOTE ]

I've read a lot of books where a chapter doesn't even fill a page. So it can be considered a chapter. I do agree with everything else you have said though.

Cyas Tygerfang. sorry to see you leave. I hope you return though. But in case you don't I wish you good luck in whatever you do in future.

Happy Birthday, hope your enjoying it.

Thank you very much everyone, having a good time so far.

Just about to eat some cake, first person to ask gets the left overs!
