    Consider yourself quoted!

    I assumed he meant "troll" in the sense of: the guy who is speaking tangent to the thread's purpose. AKA, not so much in as negative a way as you seem to have seen it.

It's just funny to me.
    There is a pretty big difference there... and it all goes back to who owns what.

    Since DCUO is given use of the DC License, you can make your character exactly like Batman and no one cares... the game encourages you to in some ways. If a person in game sees that "Batman" he's like cool, Batman!

    Same goes for Marvel and their property.

    In CoH... if someone makes Batman or Cyclops the person is doing so without Marvel/DC's permission and as such they aren't happy. *shrugs* That's just how it is. The long and short of it is that a company doesn't want you to conflate their characters and iconography with someone else's property. Like thinking Batman is owned by NCSoft or something ludicrous like that (and considering some of the wording in the EULA, technically, if you create a Batman character in CoH NCSoft would own it... sorta).

    Well that explains it.

    Never been to reddit... in fact, I am not even sure what it is. 4chan... I have been told NOT to go there. Haven't been to Fark since the 90s and I only have heard of Something Awful via an oblique reference to it by Zwill fairly recently. Also, I closed my Facebook... so, guess that leaves here and Twitter. (TVtropes I got sucked into for hours once... haven't been back since. )
  4. For what it's worth, TJ, the way TA intended is exactly how I read it the first time... until you said that it really meant something totally different, so... yeah. The key line that made me get what he intended in the first place, was this one:

    As an aside, why is there half an acorn sitting on the NC logo in your sig?

    If you were a robot... you could spell "compute" correctly.

    Ah HA!

    Man, reading FTL on my part too. I guess I will just have to send him the once character and not my own since I attended the group photo (RWZ 3 to be specific).
  9. On further thought, I really have never had a strong connection to the Hami Raids... to me, the biggest sense of community comes from JU/JFA... and that isn't a place at all.

    Is there any place in the game that directly parallels communication and/or a connection to each other?

    Regardless, I still think the Hive fits well for Justice... just doesn't resonate for me very well.
  10. I will get you a Demo of my main as well as my BF's main soonish.
  11. I think of iTrials outta DA... but The Hive is prolly more appropriate.

    *locations are listed for anyone who lives in the Grand Rapids, MI and would like to check them out...even if it's just Thirty-Seven.
    Okay... I defiinitely need to visit Kings Row!

    I would assume that it will go until the end.

    Anyone check the ski chalet for openness?

    Or were you asking me? No, that seems improbable. You didn't know I would respond. Or did you?

    Are you Nemesis?!
  20. Thursday is my Saturday, so I will attempt to be around for this!! I know my badger would love to score these before the end!

  22. SQUEEEE!

    I don't do that often, sir... so take that as the compliment that it truly is. You are truly awesome!!
  23. Had the Post-Apoc set actually been released, would it have been used to upgrade the appearance of the Lost... and also make them appear a bit more like modern day Rikti as well?

    But I found other things to laugh about, so it evened out, methinks.

    This!

    Man, I love you sometimes, Arcanaville. Oh who am I kidding... I don't really ever not love you. Between math and succinctly shutting down morons with facts, you just win.
