  1. Well all alcohols are poison if they're being "honest." Oh and the guy in the video... he's Roger by the way.
  2. Water Blast colored yellow perhaps? A Beer Blaster if you will. Also welcome Anthropophagus to the best part of the forums!
  3. Wales is a part of the U.K. I've yet to visit but G-search tells me this is Welsh for "Big Green." Fitting look and theme DJFM. The Italian word for Clown. Also an opera, nice. Well it's probably a good thing that you imagine one of the more classical renditions of that song... because the modern cover literally stinks.
  4. Meh it's just Brutes really and mainly for Spines/Fiery Aura. Masterminds are ranked higher in playtime than defenders for some strange reason (laziness probably ) but other than that it's all heroes topping the board then the other villains below with Widows & Warshades bringing up the ass-end. You and me both! I can't tell you the number of times I've seen an obvious villain hanging out in Atlas and sat there clicking my auto target bind "What's wrong with this stupid thing!" Why wooaSCREEEAAAEEAAAAAGHHHHH!!! Oh COME ON! That is clearly a demon summoning other demons up from the bowels of Hades right in the middle of Atlas! Why the Babu Frik can't I punch him straight into the Zig via Next Week avenue with a slight detour through Oblivion?! Is my targeting device broken? That's life indeed... oh snap, I feel like Thor waiting for Loki to say... No need to apologize Clawdebt. Each to his/her own.
  5. You mean other than multiple people here saying the same thing, each of those people knowing the minds of many others & having the post with more than 6x the approval of any other here? You mean other than that evidence he has no evidence? Apples and Oranges comparison. Doesn't apply. Has anyone disputed this??? Of course it's true, it's also irrelevant to many. People play what they like.
  6. Ummm yes? That would be why I stated it. It may not be yours but that doesn't mean a significant segment of players don't agree with me. If you're implying that I alone am of the opinion that "more people prefer playing the hero than the villain" I don't even have to leave the thread to point to examples disproving that. Look no one speaks for the entire player base and we have no way to ask them as a whole but just using what we have available what's the only post in this thread with more than 2 likes or thumbs up (currently 12)? That would be the one from Ironblade that I quoted saying a very similar thing. I've heard this expressed dozens of different ways by hundreds of people over the years since i6. I'm not ignoring your supposed pachyderm I am saying it's irrelevant and would not change my opinion if the situation were reversed and Red came first. Where were they the day CoV was released? Well anyone who had it was playing with the shiny new Redside and my whole SG and I were among them. You know where many of them were a few days/weeks later? Blueside. Maybe if it had been a free expansion or had released sooner or with content parity you could've kept more people over there longer but the end result would've been the same. Once the new toy syndrome wears off you realize you are playing for the wrong team and it's just not as fun. The only reason I didn't get rid of it (well I did sell off my pricey early order & pick up a DVD Collector's Edition a few weeks later for $8) was that you needed to have Villains in order to get access to Supergroup bases and porters (features people actually wanted). Well that would make you more civil than some and I appreciate that but as an FYI you can't really "down-vote" a post and subtract reputation in the same way that "up-voting" a post adds to it. Honestly that bit at the end was something of an experiment to see if a rash of all in red-siders would strike after I predicted that they would. Do they choose the new thumbs down thereby proving me right or or do they resist the temptation to try and prove me wrong? So far it appears to be the latter. I am ignoring nothing and yes perceived heroism is a far more significant factor than you seem to realize. No, content that people enjoy playing is king. Content they have no interest in is more of a "red" headed step child. Or it's compelling evidence that people don't share your priorities and actually just prefer playing Blueside. Can you honestly think of no scenario where a product launches in a space and then later a significantly better one launches in that same space and people abandon the original in time and adopt the newer better thing??? If the content was genuinely superior and/or more people enjoyed playing villainous characters then over time people would migrate and there would end up being more people redside which would then make the devs release more content to support the majority of the player base but it isn't and they don't.
  7. Cool. If you find something better by all means use it. No worries either way. Agreed. I wasn't sure if I should overlap on Atlas' face so I kept the text to the globe.
  8. As it should be. Yep. It's not because CoH came first and it doesn't really matter the incentive I just don't want to play Redside. I play the game to be a hero, being the bad guy has no appeal whatsoever... annnd cue the mass of down votes from Villains.
  9. I Know Right? Being a Macho man clearly makes you a "Face" far more often than a "Heel." Also...
  10. @ToxinFox Well have you considered the City of Heroes font itself? It's called Red Circle. So pulling some light blue shades from the background and stretching it vertically a bit, it might look something like... Thoughts?
  11. Right on @Glacier Peak but those can only be used in your own posts and not to react to someone else's which is, I think, what @Ironblade is talking about. 💯 Also I've seen people on other browsers say that 90% of those don't show up.
  12. Same thread linked above just scroll down two posts (though I think that is a thumbs down being used ironically ). Oh some of those would definitely be trouble. The e4 "Pinocchio" would essentially just be calling someone a liar. A couple might be genuinely useful though like the c1 "Puppy Dog Eyes" c8 "Mind Blown" or the d9 "Hmmm." Thoughts?
  13. Well said Janet. Also I seriously need to see this show, it keeps coming up and I've heard good things. To the Binge-Mobile Batman!
  14. If this post is any indicator, already quite a bit. I hope not but I'm not exactly going to hold my breath. Perhaps a difference in degree? The heart for what you really enjoy and the thumbs up for general approval? I always thought the "Sad" was more of the negative reaction (depending on context) and "Confused" was just when something said in a post was difficult to understand or just plain bizarre. Same. I sometimes find myself wanting to both express approval and thank them for the comment/question, I usually just react with one and comment the other.
  15. The artwork is indeed lovely... nothing else to point out about this pic. Nope nothing at all. *whistles innocently* @Icanav Clearly you do not know me very well my good man. With more than 196 countries at my disposal, give or take an island nation or two and the occasional disputed territory, I'm fairly certain Fox would run out of patience long before I would ever run out of countries to pun-nish her thread with. However since I do not wish Brahn to end up maligned by a malevolent mob of mischievous monkeys in tutus I shall mercifully moderate... for the moment.
  16. ...aaaand now we have a new Thumbs Up option. Nice! Oh and a Thumbs Down option. What could possibly go wrong with that?
  17. Missing a K but I see what you did there @DoctorDitko. Now that's what I call a "deep cut" reference but in hindsight it was pretty blade-tant I guess.
  18. @Panache Oh? Well then how about a sequel? Justice Avengers: Omu's Revenge! This time it's personal... they got his new cape dirty.
  19. Okay then how about some Justice Avengers! I actually made a red "Rage Suit" for my blaster after this video came out... KUNG FUUU!
  20. ...and speaking of songs to get stuck in your head, it's time to go the distance!
  21. Some days you can still get the Kill Stealin' Blues. For added hilarity turn on the closed captioning and "Have a Study Day." ZOINK! /#Sorry-Not sorry\ for the song that will be stuck in your head.
  22. I only started noticing it in the last week or so myself and, not to put too fine a point on it, but my own speculation just isn't cutting it so would a Dev or GM care to comment so we could get a better handle on this mystery?
  23. We can react to a post with a Heart, Trophy, Laugh, Confused, Sad... and a Knife? I don't see it as a choice on my end but it is an option when you bring up the window showing the list of who reacted & how. Dev only option perhaps?
