    Immediately kicked him. I swear, every person in The One supergroup was just as damn well useless. Had to petition the sg lead The Master for racism and griefing at a few Hamidon raids.
    I don't even think he gave that much of response and I don't recall him getting into the mission *shrug*. All I remember is "AFK Shower".


    You exposed me to so many bad teams over the years
  2. 1) Holy crap - I just looked at pictures linked by Shamster. The time must be coming to an end because that'll never happen. Those are the only 50s you had?

    2) I was mentioned twice! Mental can't possibly be more heart broken, can he?

    3) Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many costume bits/combos blatantly ripped off of me. I knew you were constantly checking me out, but still.

    4) Your lack of shielding/buffing/being useful in teams plus your exuberance for mob aggroing/dying and general disregard of tactics certainly helped me play better as I single-handily saved the day on countless occasions for various teams throughout the year. So thank you for sucking?



    I took screenshots of all my 50s the other day as well but from the character selector screen. I think maybe 6 of them had something in the bios, while only 3 had some attempt at an actual story, so wasn't really concerned with that aspect. No idea what I'll ever do with any of them.

    Everytime I log in and see what I have saved on characters, in AH, in the base all for future builds/characters..........absolutely pisses me the **** off now. Don't know if that feeling is going to go away.

    I remember when if you zoned out of RWZ during Lady Grey you were out of the TF (still true to this day?).

    I remember fights in Ventrilo.

    I remember a LGTF wasn't going so well so a couple of people dropped O-zone portals for the final AVs to take aggro. SpaceTrucker accidently clicked the portal, zoned, and was auto-kicked from TF, "Thanks a lot a$$holes!" for which he was right to be angry, but it still makes me laugh to this day, his delivery of that line was perfect.
    I remember Flux hitting an ozone during the LGTF while we were in the middle of a mob group and being kicked from the TF. It had nothing to do with taking aggro.

    Ozone may or may not have been planted purposefully by any particular person.........but man did I laugh. And laugh. and laugh.


    I was on that fateful Shard TF and asked him while he took so damn long to kick him.




    I started a log of all my characters and how long they took to hit 50 around Issue 2 (I'm going to miss my Excel file ). I've never farmed for any character I have at 50 and throughout my play time, 90% of it was all solo. The Difficulty options were a godsend. With all the various changes to the game, it's kind of interesting to me the tremendous difference in time it took for various characters:

    Some examples-

    Kat/Regen Scrapper (Pre-Issue 2) = 388

    Fire/Ice Blaster (Beta character remade for Live) = 398

    Earth/Rad Troller (Issue 2 - Rolled into the First Isolator) = 267 (the majority of that was pre-Iso)

    Fire/Rad Troller (Made before the great Pet nerf, hit Imps the day before those changes went in) = 240

    Illusion/Empathy Troller (Issue 2 - Solo ) = 310. Pet changes ruined him for me.

    Merc/Traps (Made with CoV) = 326. I slogged through that horrible AI and yet MM are still one of my favorite ATs

    Energy/Energy Brute = 237 (Energy Aura SUCKED way back when)

    Fastforward over the years -

    Shield/Kin Brute = 60

    Titan/WP Brute = 55

    Dark/Dark Troller = 37

    Demon/Pain MM = 56 (one of 2 Demons I made because those are damn near perfect)


    By no means are those supposed to be impressive times, but being solo/non farming, and with my availability, I always found it intriguing how the times mostly got faster. Playing wasn't just easier or anything, but I also found myself having more fun with the newer sets as well.

    So I kicked him and said in teamchat, "Man, that guy was a dick." His sgmate on the team responded "That was my son." "Man, your son was a dick." Then I kicked the 2nd guy.

    We finished the TF w/out a tank.

One of them was a stone tank who thought he was in charge of the team because he was the only tank, kept running off and aggroing new spawns, wanted to herd Rularuu. Started getting real belligerent in chat. Kicked him from the TF. 2nd mission from the end of Sara Moore. Just after he typed, "I can do what I want. You can't kick me because you can't finish the TF without a tank."
    Hamster: "Man, that guy was a dick."
    Guy's sgmate: "That guy was my son."
    Hamster: "Man, your son was a dick."
    *kick's the other guy from the TF as well"
  5. Hopefully a bigger turn out from the one I tried back in '06? Had a decent gathering, but it was just to do it and mainly only forum readers showed up.

    There should be more cause this time round for sure.....and I would think a whole lot more forum readers currently.

    That's how I took it as well. If not, oh well I guess; you'd all be spared from my dastardly plans


    One sure fire way to squash opposition and dissidence is to completely cut off the mainstream path for expression.

    Just look at Egypt, Korea, China, Russia and the entirety of the Middle East as examples of success............

    Thanks Victory

    What the hell are all of you going to post late in November?

    Me. I'm starting my draft now. Maybe epic. Maybe insightful. Maybe a tribute. Maybe just scaring the **** out of all of the skeletons in the closet.

    "I think I'm going to miss you most of all. "

    Yes, even after learning you normally run with "creepo" as a name.




    (Well, runner up at least. I finally came to grips with the first after so many years)
  9. You got 3 months.

    Repost it at least once a day.

    In whatever threads you want.


    THAT would be a gift.

    Tex Longhorn
    So you mean a totally different name?

    Just make it cow. That's all anyone needs to remember.

    We're in our mid-30s, and the game goes dark 11/30, we definitely can fit in one last great 1-50 run before then! SERIOUSLY!

    I'm pissed I can't make the Spines/Bio Armor Scrapper I wanted to, but we can still play.

    The greatest irony is I was going to actually pick up the Coyote power when I heard the news, but I think they said the market is shut down immediately.
    Eh......just don't see the point. I really wanted Bio armor

    Maybe run one TF per character for old times sake.
    Doc Q on 11/29?
  15. They really should make the shut off date December 12th

    It doesn't seem like they can or will. I certainly don't know, but the impression I'm getting from the announcement is that it would be free access until closing time. Again, I certainly don't know.

    I don't know if I'd pay month to month now if it did go that way.

    Goddamnit I'm so mad right now.
    Yeah they'll be pushing that hard. It'll be that and WoW now and that's all I can think of. For now anyway. And neither are going to last another year with a in-game purchasing model.I don't follow the genre and have no idea about any other games. I neither have any interest in them.

    They make more money with in-game purchases. They just don't make as much as they want.

    Kind of want to see a Kickstarter to keep it. Or someone porting this into a stand alone game somehow. Yeah, I'd play it all by myself.
  19. This now seems utterly pointless.

    Kudos?
  20. Uh.........ok.

    That's beyond odd.

    Nope. Don't have multiple tabs / log ins. I tried a dozen or so that gave me the "valid but can't use" and a couple that said "already in use".

    Can only apply one valid code per X hour/minutes maybe? I don't know what the new and big list was for, but I doubt I already have it registered to the master account.
  22. Several of those new ones are telling me they are valid codes but I can't use them on "any" accounts I might have? *shrug*

    Voo: you have more than one account?
    Add up everything you actually know about me, divide by your fantasy ideas, add 1 to compensate for rounding errors, and you will arrive at the answer.
  24. Thanks. Actually got a couple.
