Thirty-Seven

Some kind of awesome happened right here... and I have no words to describe it properly.

I can assure you that my "suggestive themes" are not involved though. But now that I said that, they surely will be thanks to some poster after I hit [Submit Reply].

What's funny about this, is that the actual law has no bearing on this conversation whatsoever. What matters is that specific parts of the EULA.. the rules we as players need to follow, state that we can't make costumes or use names that infringe on copyright, or other intellectual property.

So, the law is moot... we have to go by whatever Paragon Studios defines as "infringement." So, it's not about the law at all, it's about the rules we all agree to when we log in... EVERY time.

And if you argue that the EULA is wrong, or is asking us to do something contrary to the law, that's tangent to the point, actually. Because, unless you say no to the EULA, and don't play and then lodge a legal complaint to get it changed to follow whatever law it isn't, you have still agreed to follow the rules of the game. That would be like a guy walking into a casino and ignoring the rules of the house for whatever game he is playing because he used to play it a different way over in Sri Lanka, that don't fly.

I have no idea what this is supposed to mean.

Which, if I catch this right.. translates to: "what the crotch are you talking about?"

It's a Universal Damage set... so it can only go in powers that accept Damage Enhancement... aka, not Hand Clap.

I think we are working under two different definitions of the word I underlined. Mako -IS- anthropomorphed. He is a humanized shark. That is what that word means, literally: to morph (change) to be human-like. It does not mean, to make it into something with as human a face as possible that totally needs hair and ears.

Then... to me... you did it wrong. A sharkman needs to look like a shark... with 2 arms and 2 legs. It doesn't, I repeat, does NOT need to have it's head reconfigured as much as you seem to indicate. Other things need to change so that when I look at it, I think shark... not puppy. No hair, no trace of human ears... lots of teeth, a fin on it's back and/or head... the images you posted are NOT nor will they ever be sharks to me.


By my definition... there already is one: Mako.

In your opinion... I think many of our animal parts are perfect, if a bit too cute in the recent batch.

And I don't think that goes far enough. A shark head can never have hair if it's done right, or else it isn't a shark.

I think it is almost guaranteed that you will get that wish... more options, and new sets that is.

I hate to say this... but there are two words I need to say to this: adapt, move. That is all.

It's optional... yes. Until it isn't. I think what has McNum mad is the idea that there is already friction against folks with knockback powers... and the mere fact that this IO exists may convince some that it is required, and kick folks who don't have it slotted on their PBs, etc.

I can't seem to find a recorded version of this... can I get a link?

Sorry Sam... none of those look right at all. They all look like wolves/dogs pretending to be sharks. And, well, sharks look WRONG with hair or ears. They simply can't have hair OR ears IMO.

No, he is suggesting that people who are bound and determined to not follow the rules get a ban to hopefully teach them a lesson AND prevent folks who might comment from getting a tirade.

I would imagine that first thing is more important, and the rest of his post is somewhat in the throes of anger at being cussed out for nothing. Though I could be wrong.

There's a tool of some sort to create Icons for this game? Where can I find such a thing?

This.

I think a new name is in order... Biomorphic Attack?

So... you are claiming the existence of a bevy of Bird Blast enthusiasts are out there? Or did the definition of "niche" suddenly change?

'Cause what you are saying has zero to do with what I said.
