Samuel_Tow is the only poster that makes me want to punch him in the head more often when I'm agreeing with him than when I'm disagreeing with him.

Any Judgement, but especially Pyronic.

Villains are those who dedicate their lives to causing mayhem. Villians are people from the planet Villia!

Too long to really type here. Suffice it to say, there's plenty of smiles that can be garnered from my time with Co*, from mezzing 12 bad guys at the same time, to soloing 12 LTs and Bosses with a Claws/WP scrapper, to just being a weirdly obnoxious and stupid SS/Inv brute blowing through town flinging bad guys everywhere, to being part of shutting down Galaxy City with Galaxy's Last Stan, to roaming about the Shadow Shard and doing it without flying, to being really precise with super jump and landing JUST beside the trainer, to the amazing gatherings in PocketD, to the events that I sometimes partake in and win (CCs, races, etc)...
To name a very few. Co* owns me bad.
August 31, 2012. A Day that will Live in Infamy. Or Information. Possibly Influence. Well, Inf, anyway. Thank you, Paragon Studios, for what you did, and the enjoyment and camaraderie you brought.
This is houtex, aka Mike, signing off the forums. G'night all. - 10/26/2012
Well... perhaps I was premature about that whole 'signing off' thing... - 11-9-2012

Happening upon a couple or several people in the middle of an RP session in local chat that is so immersive that it puts me into a headlock and I forget for a moment where I was going and what I was doing. I love it when people get into character. And yes, I've been on Virtue since release. Not a big RP'er myself, I just love people who do RP and I like to be around them.

when everything "goes as planned" because everyone listened.
that enhancement i thought worthless made me 100 mil
Accidentally setting up a perpetual rez machine with Crey geneticists... I didn't want to go hosp, for quite a while just to check if it would ever stop.
Coming out of Hidden status with a bone-shattering CRUNCH! noise and the words EXECUTIONER'S STRIKE in friendly orange letters. Gets me every time.
Getting aggro on both AVs in the BAF on my rad defender.
Finding a spawn that makes me go all out on my Illusion/Time... then owning said spawn.
Sending purse-snatching Hellions and Skulls flying with KB powers.
Using Street Justice on... anything.
DISINTEGRATION! DISINTEGRATION SPREAD! DISINTEGRATION SPREAD! DISINTEGRATION SPREAD! DISINTEGRATION! SCOURGE! DISINTEGRATION! SCOURGE! SCOURGE! DISINTEGRATION SPREAD! ...where's my damage numbers? Ah well, stuff's dying!
- As leading/recruiting is something I enjoy doing, I am grateful to anyone who thanks me and/or compliments me for my leadership of a team/league.
- I, like Zombie Man, love a good railing kill. Though I found that killing Crey snipers in Founder's Falls or Peregrine Island brings a similar level of enjoyment. Seriously, go smack one of those snipers camping on the corner of a building, let rag doll physics do the rest, and you'll know what I'm talking about.
- Using my level 50 tanker's Knockout Blow on a level 2 Hellion in Atlas Park. It's a weird paradox to be sending a Hellion up to heaven...
- Similar to above: Using Power Push to send a low level enemy into the next neighborhood.
- Being able to perma-hold a Boss on my Ice/Ice blaster.
- Most recently: hover blasting over the lava in Who Will Die: Arc 1, Mission 3.
Just to name a few...
@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.
- Hitting a huge mob with Ion.
- Activating Domination.
- Getting up to the highest point on a map and panning the camera around. It never gets old.
Lots of stuff in the game makes me smile - that's why I play it
@Golden Girl
City of Heroes comics and artwork
Getting an idea for a new char in my head and finding the name I wanted is actually free.
KB-killing mobs into a map edge and watching them ragdoll until they fall down or phase out.
Catching the tail end of the leprechaun joke in newspaper missions.
Apparently, I play "City of Shakespeare"

running off a building and activating flight with an emoticon pose.
hovering and using the villain pose with my arms crossed.
- Beating the tar out of Ukon Gr'ai and his friends on the Rikti Mothership.
- Getting my global name as my character name on Exalted's launch day. (This really made me happy)
- When a build works out perfectly, and I get every power I wanted.
- End fight of LRSF (Something about slapping the pancakes out of the Freedom Phalanx makes me giggle like a school girl)
- Logging on to the message 'You have sold X at Wentworth's' and finding out I have anywhere between 25 and 100 million inf waiting for me.
- Base building. (Don't know why, but this makes me happy, even when I'm sad.)
[Admin] Anti-Matter: I was in ur dimenshun, killin ur d00ds.
[Admin] Emperor Marcus Cole: Good job, Anti-Matter. Troll them.
Freedom, Virtue, Exalted
- Knocking an enemy around and seeing them flail aimlessly. Into lava.
- Assassin's Blade *SPLORTCH* Love that sound.
- Getting a costume right.
- Winning a fight with barely any HP or End left. That's when you know the fight was GOOD.

"Bubble up for safety!"
Hearing that one Freakshow boss singing about blowing things up. Now hear that word of C-4!

What are "just some of" the things/situations in-game that bring a smile to your face? For me (obviously not a full list) it's making a new toon---zoning into Atlas as a lvl 1 or 2 lowbie and getting hit with sb or getting that Mo (for any tf/trial) the first run.
