At one time, all Personal Computers (PCs) were *desk top* Personal Computers. Thus the confusion that a PC is a desk top computer.

But then came portable PCs and lap top PCs and netbook PCs.

But they're all PCs because they're all computers owned by a particular person.

And the same for hand held devices which are computers with an OS and user defined applications and personally owned.

Thus, I agree with the above. As does Wikipedia.

I have under SG Defeats the Improved Igniter.

Under that, I have a badge that's 32 (32.00%) of 100 completed. It is unnamed as of yet.

According to the Wiki, there are two other SG defeat badges: one for killing Lanaru 5 times and one for killing LR 5 times.

So.... what could be the one that's 32.00% done?

I use my bases all the time. Really... a lot. For several purposes, all mentioned above.

So, that definitively answers the questioned being asked: Are bases obsolete?

Absolutely not.

But that's not the real question being asked. I have little patience or tolerance for people who play that kind of word-game to make the point they want to make under the guise of an innocent question.

The real point being made is: "I want new stuff for bases!"

Fine, valid request.

But to pretend that one is 'worried' that bases are 'obsolete' because you're not getting what you want is insincere and a crime against language having meaning.

A summary of what happened last year and vague statements about next year.

Unlike the first Posi state of the game address, there are now two Super MMOs to worry about, and thus, there will be no announcement of plans past what we already know about the next issue.

Also, future tidbits are now relegated to live conference appearances to generate 'interest' in those horrid online gamesites that pose as journalistic endeavors.

I don't understand all the Day Job Badge hate when compared to the more onerous badges:

Epic farm badges like the damage one (that wasn't reduced like some of the others). Not only can you not play your badger while it's farming for these badges, but you can't play any of your alts either!

Invention Badges: Yay! I produced hundreds of IOs that are worth 100 times less than the cost to produce them! Boy, did this badge really help the markets! And it only took a few weeks... during which... I couldn't play my character or any alts.

Flashback badges: Yay! I can do the same low level mission 5 times with different permutations of restrictions. And it only took a few weeks... during which... I couldn't play my character on non-repetitive interesting arcs... or any other alt.

Arena Badges: Yay! Setting up fake fights and taking turns throwing them. At least this didn't take days to accomplish unlike...

The PvP 400 Rep Badge: Yay! Hours and hours of setting up fake fights. All of which meant I wasn't playing my character or any alts.


So really, as much as I may agree not to like the Day Job Badges, I'm not getting on any bandwagon that doesn't prioritize the more drudging badges as the proper target of scorn.

(Badge count: 1170)

I've not seen that except for the two Incarnate TFs, in which case, they *should* be kicked.

[OP:]
I hear singing and there's no one there
I smell blossoms and the trees are bare
All day long I seem to walk on air
I wonder why
I wonder why
I keep tossing in my sleep at night
And what's more I've lost my appetite
Stars that used to twinkle in the skies
Are twinkling in my eyes
I wonder why

[Forum:]
You don't need analyzing
It is not so surprising
That you feel very strange but nice
Your heart goes pitter patter
I know just what's the matter
Because I've been there once or twice
Put your head on my shoulder
You need someone who's older
A rubdown with a velvet glove
There is nothing you can take
To relieve that pleasant ache
You're not sick
You're just in love

This is why I live by /hideall and hang out in my personal base.

Because the Devs hate the Earth.

While your sound engineer can't please everyone, what can be done so that we can do self-customizations is to give us a tool so that we know which sound is playing. Just like /whereami gives us the name of the exact map, I'd like a /whatihear to return back the names of the sound files.

That would make it so much easier for us to silence specific sounds intolerable to us (and which others may enjoy).

Or, complete sound customization!

All came out at once. It was on Test and it was so empty that my entering Talos triggered all three.
