I guess I need to learn to be less obvious about it...

I'm sure you meant 180 and not 360.

Understandable. I'm sure your friends would have understood the interruption of the "our time" moment in order to help save Paragon City.

I share that sadness.

I have actually done that exact thing before. I overhear people talking about a subject that I am familiar with and I will occasionally chime in with a few facts. Especially if they are wondering what is happening with something or other. Then, I wish them a pleasant day and go back to what I was doing. Usually, it's playing Sudoku on my phone...or reading a book on the kindle app on my phone. Nothing wrong with interrupting other people's conversations and providing helpful information. you never know, you might make new friends that way. Although, looks like you made a new friend your way too.

Ditto. Although, I suppose, I can peruse the Titan Network's forums in the hope that she will dribble some wisdom our way.

Even when I disagreed with arcanaville, which was very seldom, I have always had an extremely high estimate of her awesomeness.

And this is why I have that extremely high estimate of her awesomeness. I love that humor.

I haven't seen a from you in a few days. Who are you and what did you do with the real Golden Girl?

I do appreciate what you are doing, by the way. Even if we didn't always see eye to eye in the past.

If the entire player base donated $1 a person, I think they'd have somewhere in the area of $9,000,000.00 give or take a few thousand. I'm sure that most of the player base could afford a little more than $1 too.

Rock on, GG!

Did you just bequeath Paragon Studios am infinite amount of good luck?
I mean, giving up your luck despite needing it to find work, for the benefit of others would insure that Karma would grant you more good luck. Which, in turn, would go straight to Paragon Studios, causing Karma to grant you more good luck...etc.

You go girl!

I would say it would be more akin to DC's "Crisis on Infinite Earths" story arc written decades ago.

Do you, honestly, see our developers not giving out an account wide badge if the game does manage to survive?

Could Wil Wheaton and Sheldon Cooper support the same game and remain civil?

That is my situation as well. I tried Guild Wars (not II) several years ago. I didn't stay with it for long. I've tried WoW, LotR, and a few other MMOs. Didn't stay with them for long either.
I think my problem is that I am sick and tired of "Yet, another fantasy based game." that I am unable to maintain iterest in any of them for long.
CoH is the first Superhero MMO that set the standard for the genre in MMOs.
Plus, I like being a Superhero!

So, I have no interest in playing any other NCSoft games. My boycotting it would be a moot point.

This happened to me the last week of July (a week before my Birthday no less). I was informed that the branch manager for the security contract company that I worked for wanted to see me. This was as I was being relieved for my shift, just before my weekend started. I drove about 50 miles to the branch office, just so the manager could tell me that the post I was working at didn't want me to return any more. Two days later, I was called back to the branch office to sign my termination notice because they couldn't find another post to send me to.

I was pissed at how I was treated through out the whole ordeal. But, I can see their reasoning behind those policies. However, those policies are probably part of the reason they had to implement those policies in the first place. Is that like a paradox?

Awesome statement.

Or, maybe, Joss Whedon? I hear he's a big comic book fan.

<Insert obligatory accusation of dev fanboi-ism>

Can't wait for the video...

SciFi has been airing End of the World shows for several years now. If its not "global Warming" its "Giant Meteor" or "The Core of the Earth Stopped Spinning and We're All Going to go FooP!" or something. But they've been showing that stuff for years.

Now, the Discovery Channel, I like their hypothetical "What Would Happen Over Time if All the Humans Just Mysteriously Vanished" shows. Only they can come up with something like a Flish, a tree swinging Octopus, or a mind controlling mold.

Ok, them and some guy that really would like to write for a SciFi show.

Fix'd it for you

Just because The Flash died saving the universe from the Anti-Monitor, didn't mean that the Crisis was averted.

Dangit!!! I didn't get to see all of that episode of The Twilight Zone.

The Chronicles of Amber? I haven't read that series in 20 years...

I think this part is under-estimated. I'd say a few minutes, at the very least.

I was wondering why he was sleeping in that coffin...


and didn't wake up.

Just because some people have higher standards than others in an industry, does not mean that the industry cares about quality.

When I was in college, taking programming classes, the instructor told us about one programmer he had the experience of being employed in the company with. That programmer, in stead of using a looping bit of software to run the same function 100 times, actually wrote 100 instances of the same function. All because he got paid by the line. 100 lines of repetitive code nets him more cash than 5 lines of code that would do the exact same thing.

As long as the program worked, the customer was content. Despite the fact that the programmer was bloating the code needlessly just to make more money.

Now, I'm not saying that Paragon Studios is like that. I'm just saying that you can't say that an industry cares about quality just because some people that work in that industry have higher standards. It all depends on where those people are placed in that industry and how much leeway they have with deadlines and costs.

I might have tossed a bit of nor'easter in there, but most of that is pure Arkansas.

It took me a while, but I did learn to spell by sound fairly well. I never really understood how hukd on foniks helped people to spell korektlee.

I aslo leraned ot spdee typo realyl goo oto.

Just last week I logged onto a character that I had created but never finished the original tutorial. He was still in the original tutorial. completing the tutorial will give you the same choice between Atlas Park and Galaxy City. Of course, if you go to Galaxy City, you'll be auto-magically rezoned to Atlas Park.

Short answer: Yes, you can log onto a character that is in the original tutorial and still be in the original tutorial.
