Small wonder, as you're the only one contributing. At least you've avoided the farce that is Jay's Costume Request thread.
I always find your snarky disdain for player suggestions a comfort. If you guys have grander plans, is there any chance you'll actually be making them?

[/ QUOTE ]you missed the joke entirely, didn't you. there was no snark, if anything the joke was a self deprecating one, he was joking that he wasn't getting quality suggestions from himself. Sheesh people, do we need john kerry here to explain all our jokes?

I've often been told that my sense of humor is a bit too dry, but yeah...that's what I was getting at.

Well at least you tried to get it to work on the forums. Maybe there's an API for it in the new forum software? 
And there's been SOOOO many times that I wanted this in game. Not just on the forums.

If his intent was self-deprecation, I'll take him at his word and withdraw my own snarkiness. I doubt I would have found it a knee slapper if I were fresh as a daisy but maybe checking the Dev Digest after a week's worth of 13+ hour days (plus commute) is ill-advised. I'll try to look at it in the morning before the horror begins and see if my attitude improves.
8:45am - 10:30pm today and I've managed to be civil. Maybe I'm growing...
Attache
PS Jay's Costume Request is still a farce. No growth there.

In your mind maybe...after this week mine is more like an elderly Basset Hound trying to gum its kibble.
I can certainly buy that I misread his joke and would like to reiterate that I have no personal distaste or disdain for the man. While I stand by the fact that I haven't been terribly impressed by any additions to the game in over a year (I11 and I12 were the last time I liked the final product), I also recognize that other people's mileage will vary. Quality content, like humor, is always a matter of opinion.

You're forgeting one thing Lavitae. If your gonna have a /throwmoney emote, than you gonna need to have a /dogpile emote. Cause once that money hits the floor...so am I.

We need money related auras too. Like have an aura where bills and coins fall off you when you move around, leaving a trail of cash wherever you go. One of my rich SG mates wants an aura where you fart dollar bills whenever you jump.
