I clicked on it yesterday and this morning I have a really bad headache. I think that site gave me cancer.







Or it could just be a hangover.

Beef,

I don't know what to say. Your my hero and this thread is so full of win I almost cried.

Perhaps many people are expecting them to go up (at least initially) with I19...


total kick to the gut

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

Or there could be some other explanation that I used to link to, except that what I linked to no longer exists and I removed the offending reference.

Actually it´s a comination of things. Between the CPvPL, Trick or Treating and what was discussed i could see it driving up prices. The rewards on what was discussed in that thread wasnt high enough to drive up the prices alone.

I found a set of Armageddon purples in my base the other day and between the five of them I got about 2.25 billion. I don't know for certain why the prices have gone up for purples, but I hope they stay this way because I can IO out several of my toons without purples with 2.25 billion. They could go down in price after I19 because people will be respecing and possibly be getting rid of them to make a quick buck or I can see them going up with people making new incarnate builds and needing them.

You come off like a teenager who is so unsure he's right that he blusters to cover his anxieties. And the whole thing got started as you said....because you were in a weird mood and decided to troll on the forums.
Well, I have a suggestion... fire your IT guy and hire a language expert..

As for Beef being flippantly arrogant.. what do you expect? You accuse him of something that isn't true and had no basis in fact. I'm pretty sure most people would react that way! THEN you post a pseudo apology and inject a few insulting jabs while remaining quite condescending, which is a tone I find throughout your posts... maybe that wasn't intentional as well huh? Don't be that cop that shoots first then yells freeze!

He was flippantly arrogant BEFORE the malware ever came up. He admits earlier in the post he was trolling to get people's goats. Since I had previously respected him for all the work he put into helping badgers. I think mostly I was offended that someone I thought was a good solid player decided to troll the market boards for no appreciable reason. The malware was a genuine misunderstanding. I'd love to have a language expert as well, but I doubt I could slip that past the CFO in my divisional budget.

Nice to see you'd so flippantly lay someone off in this economy too.....I mean you do realize when you say something like that that there is a real human being with that job, right?

I didn't say layoff, I said "fire!" and yes, I fully realize everything I say, before I say it.
-hint-hint- If BOB the IT guy has to go in order for you to get the proper help with your language ineptitude, then so be it!! Sometimes sacrifices have to be made for the greater good!

I do appreciate your attempt at trying to lighten things up and taking what I said with a grain of salt.

Was that the guy from the Monkees? Not the short guy, or the weird looking guy, or the guy whose mom invented Liquid Paper. The other one.


Ooh, a sarcasm detector. Oh, that's a *real* useful invention. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technolog...t-sarcasm.html

Wow, SO not even in the ballpark.

I think you're thinking of Peter Tork, but Michael Nesmith was the Monkee whose mother invented Liquid Paper.

By the process of elimination, Mickey Dolenz is the weird looking guy?

It isn't nearly as funny if you use emoticons. Then again, I have a very dry sense of humor.
