I like this idea. Honestly, I'm surprised it wasn't done sooner.
Sound like my cup a tea, I'll be joining.

Sounds interesting. Would like to see some of this. But I might be only casually limitless now due to RL. 
Sweet, I'm in so many global channels now, but I really like the concept behind this one. Seems like a great place for forming speed TFs/trials, or "Master of" runs", and the like.
By min/max, MP, what do you mean? I like IOs and making builds (and helping people with them... I have chatted with plenty of people in channels about builds), but I'm not really one for the most expensive builds out there, since not everyone is rich--or has been bankrolled by multiple PERC events. 
I'm doubting this will be the "we is so awesome" club, but I thought I would check.

Maximum benefit, minimum holes. You CAN min/max on a budget. It's just not going to be extreme. Basically, I love to make builds and chat about it, but I never go all out crazy extreme min/maxing. I just mean, squeak out the most that you can |

Oh and having pimped chars is not a requirement at all. Just if you don't want to talk about it or have an aversion to build talk, that means VL is not a good fit. I see you as a occasional hard core gamer. You know how to be hard core and stuff but you don't do it all the time Oh and GP- everyone on Victory is awesome... cause it's an awesome server.

Obviously I cannot add requirements, but I always find it helpful when people don't just stick to one character, but have at least a few characters in a repertoire to choose from when running something. If we want to run a speed Apex but the only thing you have Alpha slotted on is your Peacebringer... well I will be let down. That's not to say every 50 you have should be decked out in IOs or have tons of progress on all the Incarnate stuff, but still... having options and being flexible is important.
To me anyways.

It would be more fun if you acted like he was calling you out and had a big forum fight. Then everyone else could join Team Pilgrim or Team Pistacio and insult each other for being on the wrong team.

While I am really good at designing melee builds, I'm not so good at amassing the resources to obtain them. For this I rely on information provide by others who do keep on best ways to obtain the resources I need. Presently, I simply don't have the time or the inclination to keep on both.
This is precisely why I like the idea regarding this type of channel. A place where we can openly discuss build strategies and strategies for achieving them. These conversations can get technical and would not always be welcome in the current global channels.
On that same notion, not every min/max build need be expensive. It all boils down to what you want to achieve. A scrapper wasn't intended to solo AVs. An ITF wasn't intended to be run in 20 minutes. Obviously, things like this can be done, and you can design your builds to be better suited for it. If these activities don't interest you, then you don't need that type of build.
Min/max does not refer to the most expensive build possible. It's about achieving the maximum you desire for the minimum amount of sacrifice.

So confused (in case anyone was confused by that smiley as well, heh).Maybe my brain is still hurting from grading some crummy final exams today (seriously... if you don't believe me, I can give you some grade-A examples that will hurt your brain to read), but this seems weird to me.
Although I see Ryxx and Ele are hating on Peacebringers again.
I need to start bringing mine into trials with them just to rub it in.Quote:

Yes, and I was joking earlier about how probably half of my net worth is due to winnings from PERC events. Maybe half... I might get more than that if I cashed in all my LoTGs and Miracle and Numina uniques I have grabbed via merits.

Grey Pilgrim: Fire/Fire Tanker (50), Victory
Hi everyone! Ive wanted to make a new global channel for over a year and with the possibility of an influx of Euro players (due to server list merge), now seemed like the perfect time. So I have created the channel Victory Limitless.
One of the best things about City of Heroes is that it is a very casual player friendly game. You can do a lot of things solo and you dont have to get into inventions and pimping out your builds if you do not want to. You can run a story arc (or tf/trial) and defeat every single foe on the map if you like. That being said, there are a lot of players (like myself) who have experienced most of the content in game and enjoy the thrill of challenging themselves to create new records, new goals, and min maxed characters that can do things well beyond the scope of normal gameplay.
We currently have three major public channels on Victory:
Victory Forum- an awesome place to chat/form teams/form tfs/join Isolators
Victory Badges & Victory Badges 2009- an awesome place to talk about badges/form teams/form tfs
However, these channels are mostly for more casual play and speed tfs or numbers talk (Mids) are not always popular. I think it is really important that there are public channels to serve every type of player. The goal of Victory Limitless will be to make a home for players who enjoy running fast/hard core task forces, min maxing their builds, getting tips from others, and overall who want to be better players by learning from each other. That is not to say that someone can ONLY run speedy tfs or only run on a pimped out character, everyone is free to promote any kind of fun activities they like.
-In a nutshell-
This channel is for you if
This channel is probably not for you if
Just to reiterate: this is a public channel, anyone may join (players will only be removed if they violate EULA or the no drama/no BS policy). You do not always have to play speedy or hard core, just if you enjoy it. There will be plenty of opportunities for all different types of play/content/chat. All PERC events will be advertised on this channel as well (in addition to other public channels!).
You can join Victory Limitless by typing /chanjoin "Victory Limitless" or by sending me a PM or tell (@Madame Pistacio) and I will invite you. Other mods will be chosen as well.
Thank you for reading! I <3 Victory!
