Been gone for a while, I used to enjoy keeping up with his posts.
He still around, or has he moved on?

ProBABly busy with that Going Rogue thing I heard about.

He's probably busy working on a little thing called "Going Rogue".


total kick to the gut

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

Sorry, I should have reworded the OP.

I have been gone awhile.


So, he's still around. That was my question.

Thanks.

Rumor has it that Pohsyb and Television found BaB's making little ASCII animations in the game's source code and decided that the best solution was to lock BaB's away in the basement.

We haven't heard that he'd moved on - I'd expect a farewell thread in that case - and I can't imagine he'd be fired, but in the absence of Red Name confirmation one way or the other, everything else is speculation.

I know for a fact that he is still there and still working.

Whether he's now being forced to share pohsyb's box is still a question.


Be well, people of CoH.

Kitten Action News has sent a reporter undercover to check out Paragon Studio's offices for any signs of the reclusive Back Alley Brawler. After several hours of investigating the cafeteria for properly cooked salmon, our reported scouted the hallways of the studio, following a loud yelling noise. Unfortunately we only have audio of what our reporter witnessed, and a description of the ongoing events. While prowling through the facility our reporter found a bare hallway with warning signs plastered all over. In the middle of the hallway a large steel door was set into the wall with a sign overhead indicting the animation department. In front of the door was a tiny figure with a brilliant blonde hair doing it's best to get inside the steel door. What you are about to hear... willl chill you to the bone... play the tape...
"GOLDEN GIRL CAN HAS ANIMATED HAIR YES? GOLDEN GIRL GETS ANIMATED HAIR SOON? YOU DO ANIMATED HAIR FOR GOLDEN GIRL? WHEN GOLDEN GIRL GET ANIMATED HAIR???"
Our reporter talked with some of the local wildlife and it seems that the Back Alley Brawler has been held captive by this... Golden Girl... inside the the animation studio. Squirrels report that they carry in baskets of food and water, and that the siege has been going on for quite some time.

More details will be made available in the coming time. This is Kitten Action News, signing off.

LMAO....that is classic.

While I have missed his forum contributes. Knowing he is still here is enough because I know that means good things are to come.

Well, that wasn't too hard.


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

I think I remember that for awhile he swore off the forums, and only came back for some beta testing. Maybe he's back to being reclusive again.

He's abandoned us. We are dead. Doom.

Two places I've seen BaBs recently -

) in Pocket D during the 6th anniversary celebrations.
) on the preview video on the Going Rogue website, where a few of the devs are on film.

So, it would take something pretty drastic for BaBs to have left/been booted since then I'd say.

*has visions of BaBs getting kicked out of the office after approving a puking emote*

I think he's still standing in Galaxy City. I know no one has a reason to visit there until they need a cape or create a Warshade or even an old fashioned respec. But he's still there, ready to train you up, or rename your build.

Quick, someone do something.

Post a witty story or observation that he will not be able to resist.

Vive le Brawler!

I was casually purpling my warshade last night when I got to wondering why the devs hate squids and lobsters.

i was casually squidding a lobster when i got to wondering why the Devs hate purples...
Shortly after that i was being pursued by the half the PPD. It turns out that squidding lobsters violates three public decency statutes in Paragon City. (The fun ones, obviously.) It wasn't until some time after that when i'd caught my breath that i remembered that the Devs hate purples and started wondering again.

i make stuff...

This made my afteroon. And I don't know why. Maybe it's because the thought process of trying to define "squidding a lobster" is so hilariously foul.

Purples have gone to the jerk hackers. But don't worry - they will be STRONG and PRETTY again Soon(tm).
