Things you find fun, but aren't necessarily rewarding?
Destroy the Generators mission by Marshall Brass.... stand on the generators when you defeat it and it'll send you clear across the map! Makes me LOL every time!
Knockback ftw

Pretty things with lots of killing: Eden trial, Silver Mantis SF.
I beat up muggers, frequently. And 5th column.
Market games: I have a nearly-single-handed war against inflation going. Matching inf-to-prestige, generating unnecessary market fees by selling stuff for 110% of what I buy it for, etc.
I also have a project (which a LOT of people help with, much appreciated) to create recipes below level 50, because there aren't enough of those.
Coming in here and running my mouth.
Mini-guides: Force Field Defenders, Blasters, Market Self-Defense, Frankenslotting.
So you think you're a hero, huh.

Why MA ratings should be changed from stars to "like" or "dislike"
A better algorithm for ordering MA arcs
Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.
Costumes and base building - waaaay too many hours on either.

Costumes, sniper hunts, Super Speeding around a zone without stopping or leaving the road, helping lowbies, but more than anything, my personal vendetta against the CoT's dignity: Wizards Over The Cliff, Wizards Off The Roof, Wizards Into The Red Crystal Of Damage.
Angel Witch II - Chord of Souls - Storm Witch II - Princess of the Dawn - Standing Horse - Witch of Xymox
Silent Scream - Shadow Witch II - Liquid Serenade - Nebulous Dawn - Ghost Witch II -Xiberia
I have spent gosh knows how many hours in RWZ just to earn enough Vanguard merits for those outfits.
LOVE those outfits.

I like seeing how far I can go through the Shadow Shard using only the gravity geysers and/or Super Jump without falling. If a characters does have Super Jump, I'll try to use the geysers as little as possible.

THE COURSE OF SUPERHERO ROMANCE CONTINUES!
Book I: A Tale of Nerd Flirting! ~*~ Book II: Courtship and Crime Fighting - Chap Nine live!
MA Arcs - 3430: Hell Hath No Fury / 3515: Positron Gets Some / 6600: Dyne of the Times / 351572: For All the Wrong Reasons

As far as I am concerned, Void Hunters are kill-on-sight. After getting a PB to 50, I decided to roll a toon that would be specifically made to take on Voids and Quants (rad/dark defender). That toon ended up becoming my most powerful.
If you have super speed, run at full tilt into mailbox. Mail will come flying out of it!
Going to Perez Park at 50 and using an AoE power to quickly get the "Kill Skulz" badge.
One of my faves: going to RWZ with a 50 and standing in the middle of a bunch of Knives of Artemis.
Electrical blaster with electrical mastery - you can get three single-target holds. Go to a place inaccessible to baddies (like the platforms on the power line towers in Peregine Island), use teleport foe, queue up your best hold. Then blast and re-hold as appropriate. Most of the time you'll never take a single point of damage.
Taking a toon someplace it has no business being (like going solo at the lowest possible level in the various points of the Shadow Shard) and having a look around.
Taking my level 50 /storm controller to Atlas or Galaxy and using Gale on the level 1 Hellions. They go flying off over the horizon Team Rocket style. Never gets old.
You want to know the secret of the world? It's this: Save it, and it'll repay you, every second of every day.

I gotta say my favorite 'for fun' activity is collecting civilians. Basically on flyers, usually a peacebringer that I'm trying to get the first few levels I street hunt, and stay flying. When I rescue a civilian they'll chase after me to try and thank me and give me a pitance of inf, but since they can't reach me, they just run in circles under me.
I've found five is the limit before they give up.

I too enjoy picking on snipers. They're jerks, and they deserve it. I like to Gale them off the roof, let them hussle all the way back up, Gale them again, etc.
Also, the Superjump/Ninja Run "The Ground is Lava!" game.
Scraping Cot off the rooftops of KR with Hurricane.
The Frostfire ice half-pipe.
Mayhem missions. I love busting open mailboxes and seeing all those letters to Santa that will never get delivered. Mua ha ha ha!
Casting drop powers like Thunderstorm on REALLY inappropriate places on the various statues in town. Earthquake will make Atlas into ****** with surprising ease.
Stay Gold, Paragon. Stay Gold.
