Doing a search on "Mighty_EU" did come up with a match. Since they have apparently combined the forums for NA and EU here, it is likely that they chose that as a way to tell the NA Mighty from the EU Mighty.

If it does help, however, you are the only Mighty we have ever known. The other is a pretender to the throne, and we shall refer to him simply as "Mighty...EWWW!"..

I wish to bridge the Twinkie/sushi chasm.

Behold!

It cannot be both?

Nonsense.

It needs more Longfellow:

The day is done, and the darkness
Falls from the wings of Night,
As a feather is wafted downward
From an eagle in his flight.

I see the lights of the village
Gleam through the rain and the mist,
And a feeling of sadness comes o'er me
That my soul cannot resist:

A feeling of sadness and longing,
That is not akin to pain,
And resembles sorrow only
As the mist resembles the rain.

Come, read to me some poem,
Some simple and heartfelt lay,
That shall soothe this restless feeling,
And banish the thoughts of day.

Not from the grand old masters,
Not from the bards sublime,
Whose distant footsteps echo
Through the corridors of Time.

For, like strains of martial music,
Their mighty thoughts suggest
Life's endless toil and endeavor;
And to-night I long for rest.

Read from some humbler poet,
Whose songs gushed from his heart,
As showers from the clouds of summer,
Or tears from the eyelids start;

Who, through long days of labor,
And nights devoid of ease,
Still heard in his soul the music
Of wonderful melodies.

Such songs have power to quiet
The restless pulse of care,
And come like the benediction
That follows after prayer.

Then read from the treasured volume
The poem of thy choice,
And lend to the rhyme of the poet
The beauty of thy voice.

And the night shall be filled with music
And the cares, that infest the day,
Shall fold their tents, like the Arabs,
And as silently steal away.

Why would they put work putting all that in this Issue, when we know that all of the above is going into the Expansion?

If such a thing is true, then the current and loyal subscribers get a preview of an upcoming standard feature. That is not so bad.

QQ represents two crying eyes. It is a way of telling people that they are crying.

However, in the case of some, it could stand for "Quickly Quarrelsome".

Lawyers did not like the possibility of losing money, preferring instead to have the parties argue for months in front of a judge.

Understanding is a desirable thing. Those who have it should treasure it. Those who do not likely do not realize they are missing it.

Jesus, split hairs much?

I am not Jesus, but, if you translate “splitting hairs” as correcting an incorrect assumption, then, yes, I was “splitting hairs”.

If the game is making you cry, time to step away from it.

Ah, but she did not cry over the game. She has indicated on many occasions that she enjoys both the game and its PvP option. However, her tearful frustrations did come out of the specific malice of one individual, and that emotional impact does transcend the in-game/out-of-game boundary.

The main barrier is fear and self-centeredness, whether you are male or female. One worries about what to say, what the reaction will be, how one will look, when the focus should be on the person one approaches.

The best face that one may put on is the one that tries to find the best in the other, not the best face that one thinks he or she is able to impress someone with. That level of personal validation one seeks is also often the same level that the other seeks, so appeal to that first. If it returns in kind, then continue on; if it does not, you have no fault in the matter, because the focus was not on yourself.

No. That would be me.

You are missing the necessary avatar for that claim.

Where I come from, men and women say what they mean to each other. It is much less complicated that way.

What a waste of effort this man's career has been. To state the obvious is nothing that is PhD-worthy. What is more foolish is that he has revealed his identity to those he had griefed. <shakes head>

Oh, it may not be such a bad thing.

By munchkinism, I mean that certain powers/abilities were boosted to extreme levels, while other abilities were token; some would also call it “min-maxing” For example, the healer villain healed very well, while the electrical attacks were nothing more than a slight distraction. Another player I had experimented in the arc with kept complaining of nearly dying quite often from damage-over-time attacks from the fire demon, even though he himself was quite weak in other areas.

Still, it was a true-to-life illustration of how players will focus on a single type of power and leave other abilities in the dust. And, like in any PuG, such players are often as much a danger to their team as they are to their enemies. Thank you for allowing people to look at that dynamic from an outside perspective.

That was the worst case of munchkinism I have ever had to fight against. Still, it was entertaining.

Someone had to be She-Ra. I mean, given a choice between you and I being She-Ra, I would much rather it be you. I just would not look good in a short skirt.
