((Before going further - This is a joke! <,< I intend absolutely no offense to anyone in this; it is merely a lame attempt at humor on my part - if you continue, be brave!))
The purpose of this guide is to educate, and forwarn indivduals tredding the dangerous lands of the Suggestion forum; so they may know what to expect when browsing the dense thickets of insane ideas and repugnant ranting.
First off - What am I talking about? Simple, the icon next to the post title!
Second - "Why?" Because, I feel its a humorous topic and I'm feeling too lazy to do real work atm.
Ok, so... on with the guide!
- I'm about to rant at you. Most of my post will be incoherent and, if you can actually read it; it will add nothing to any of the myriad discussions going on in the forum; but rather simply be a source of venting. Often this will consist of all-caps typing about "DEVS UR RUINN R GAM" etc...
- In my own mind; this idea is the best thing since sliced bread. It doesn't matter how unbalanced it is. It doesn't matter who it screws over. This is THE BEST IDEA EVER. You are a complete fool if you disagree with my brilliant idea.
- This idea involved absolutely no thought whatsoever. No I mean it, I didn't think AT ALL when I typed this out. The words are there, they are whole... but they hold no meaning in their current order.
- My idea is unique and original. You've NEVER seen anything even remotely like this before. EVER. Except that this idea has been suggested by 32 other people in the last month; each of which has used this same icon; and the entire reason to implement the idea is given as "it'd be cool!"
- I don't have an idea. I'm actually ranting, but masquerading it for the first paragraph as a misunderstanding of dev intent. In reality though; I'm - I just don't want to admit.
- The devs don't love me. Every (flavor of the month overpowered) build I pick gets nerfed (slightly); and because of that they become completely unplayable (because I can no longer solo 4 archvillains at the same time - while AFK). Woe is me! The game is dying!
The Lightbulb - This COULD have been a cool idea. It almost was. Very nearly. Unfortunately I wrote half of it in AOL shorthand, and the other half is a solid block of text which is impossible to read due to its lack of paragraphs. If you actually spend enough time to sort through the mess - you may find an idea that would indeed be neat. Though it would take 4 years of dev time to do, all to manufacture something useful only to myself and the small subset of players who enjoy <insert activity>.
The Poll Icon - I'm curious about your input. Unfortuantely my idea is so lame, so awful, so blatantly flamebait that absolutely nothing useful will come from this thread. Also, despite asking for your opinions, once I see that no one likes my idea - I will scream bloody murder and point out that you are all horrible fanboys.
- This idea contributes nothing useful. In fact, I wrote it while browsing porn/sports scores/stock reports/the news/watching TV/failing a respec TF etc; and so precisely what I want done is impossible to decipher. Rest assured - I have a suggestion - unfortunately no one can figure out what it was.
- There is actually no suggestion here. I realized my mistake and am embarassed about it - however, despite the OBVIOUS red glow on my cheeks; I refuse to admit I lacked an idea when I made the post and so unfortunately you now must suffer my tireless defense of a non-idea.
- CoH is DOOMED. You hear me? DOOMED. And I'm laughing. I'm happy its doomed. The game will die - yet despite how awful it apparently is (can't you see it yourself?!) - I will continue to play. I just can't wait for the day the servers come down because CoH is DOOMED.
- My idea, while made with the best of intentions; would inadvertently destroy CoX. In fact, it might even cause the destruction of our entire solarsystem. But damn it would be cool wouldn't it?
The Book Icon - This idea is entirely rational; completely logical, would require a minimal amount of developer time, and maintain game balance all at once. This suggestion is thus doomed to fall to the 666th layer of the suggestion forums - we don't need no stinking logic here!
There you have it! The complete guide to Post Icons in the Suggestion Forum!
I hope I didn't offend anyone >.> Again, this was meant for humor only!
