Confessions of the Bored
Bouncing randomly. Sometimes hopping in circles around a plaza, sometimes things like 'let's see how far I can go in Founder's Falls without touching the ground.'
Falling from the zone ceiling.
Taunting mobs. (PFF + hazard zone spawns + /e newspaper)
Nukes versus deep greys.
Trying to take on +7 bosses.
Hunting snipers on the Founder's Falls rooftops.
Reading bios.
Browsing for things that I can craft in 3 minutes of effort for 50 million inf in profit.
Jogging around Virtue's Pocket D just because I consider it my civic duty to protest the overuse of Walk.
Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.
Me...I hit the self-destruct button and see how many heroes I can take out in a single blast.
"Don't worry, Statesmen, I gave 'em a warm reception.."
I like to fly to the top of the zones and then turn off fly and drop. It scares the crap out of PuG teams, especially if there's a healer. It's also funny when I'm on ventrilo and shout "OH DEAR GOD NO!" when my health drops to 1.

At this point, on load screens, I try to find where the little circle of waiting fits best; in game, I still jump up and down - not a newb* either heh, or I will save NPC's being held up or chat on my server forum and stand around WW checking out the price of stuff.
Oh and recently, I made my first base, so have been doing things with it vs., playing.

Well Psychoti, to answer this very question/querry/confession...
I used to challenge people new and old, to a race to PI or from one side of the Hollows only using sprint to see who makes it without dying. A friend and I made it an art to do this.
Fun times... fun, fun times.
"every defender needs to fight. I don't care if you have to use BRAWL!"

I don't get bored all that often (there's always an alt that needs my attn if I do),
but in the old days, I used to gather citizens with my Kheldian (I think they
"fixed" that now-a-days - with shorter tethers and chase time limits).
But, back then, kill a mob, and the citizen chased you all over the map trying
to Thank You for the life-saving rescue...
So, grab 20-30 of them in AP, and lead them into the gate to the Hollows or
Perez, and float up at the ceiling while they all mill around aimlessly below.
The commentary from heroes entering the gate was always hilarious, and
few ever figured out how or why there were a couple dozen citizens hanging
out in the gateway.
Cheers,

I've been rich, and I've been poor. Rich is definitely better.

Negaduck: I see you found the crumb. I knew you'd never notice the huge flag.
I jump up and down aimlessly, run all around the place, and play with any fun powers I have. I've superspeeded around Steel Canyon many a time. If I'm waiting for people on my team to enter a mission, I'll find somewhere weird at the start of the map to hide. Like sitting on top of the entrance, or on a pipe in the sewers.
Hi Guys,
I take photos (screenies but more planned and posed) of my alts in exotic locations and at different times of the day, as well as all the "on the spur of the moment" shots like the team members snap of my first completion of the STF.
The Shards are fantastic and in particular the Storm Palace, but even a sunrise or set in Eden or Croatoa are really worthy.
City views from up on high, or, by using invisibility, real detailed closeups of all the foes when they are not aggroed are other things to take.
I got a seperate removable HD that I store them on and after 3 years there are penty of them to store. I like to browse them and remember times like training my first lvl 50 et cetera. Mmmm I wonder just how many of that STF team are still active players? Must post a list and see
Bored, no way. Enjoy.
So many cats - So few recipes!
Age is of no importance,
unless you are a cheese!
I jump; ALOT. The Ninja Run's flip in mid air fascinates me for no particular reason.
I do lots of random crap while waiting for things to happen in-game.
I'll turn on ninja run and see how quickly I can do backflips in place.
I'll turn on superspeed and run tiny circles around my teammates until they get annoyed and tell me to quit.
I'll find the weakest enemies I can and use whatever knockback powers I have access to to see how far I can throw them.
I'll fly up to the zone ceiling and then fall all the way back to earth. Sometimes I'll try to teleport, jump with the jump pack, or turn fly back on just before I hit the ground to avoid damage. Other times I'll smack into the ground and see how much health I can lose.
Sometimes I'll tp up to the top of buildings then use recall friend to drop my teammates off the edge.
Sometimes I'll turn on superspeed and have fun with the bug that let's you run through chainlink fences.
Sometimes I'll just wander around and see if I can find anything interesting in the game that I've never seen before.
Play with my Nemesis Staff in Steel and seeing how far I can launch random mobs off the wall in front of Icon.

Oh my, this is hilarious! I actually laughed out loud in my office. No one else plays CoH in here, so they all still think I am an uber-nerd... Even more so, now.
Why a Harley? If I had to explain, you wouldn't understand...
