I dont care THAT much. To me, it isnt about being right or wrong, it’s about the fact that people here have become horrible. Just truly horrible.

I mean, but do you need to post about that? If so thats kinda sad and telling…

I still farm just fine, but yeah this forum community is laughable lately. Better than WoW pfft 😛 seems to me y’all are almost twins with their community I hate doomsaying. I really REALLY do, but I give it another year TOPS before the community becomes too toxic to sustain, at this rate at least. ***This doesnt mean the game will be shutdown, what I think will happen is the devs will have to have a ‘Sit-down’ talk for the community ***

Let me clarify it even further, as yeah re-reading it may have been a bit tough to grasp. Folks tend to say, "Go to the test server if you want an instant-50" which I find a bit odd, as farmers don't necessarily want instant-50's, just an alternative to having to PUG to 50(can be VERY painful due to any number of reasons like server pop, players on the team, time constraints, etc...). I jumped the gun quite a bit I think on that response. I was thinking your initial response was given because you saw people farming to 50 as "wanting instant-50's", and so that's why I asked those questions. Granted, they were a bit snarky so they weren't exactly well...good 😛 (That's mostly due to my irritation with anything about farming being met with "Go to the test server" like THEY couldn't if they hated farming so much *grumblegrumble*) In summary: It was a kneejerk reaction based on stuff that happened in the past on these forums. My apologies!

I have a Fire/Energy that can do it decently I think. It's very easy to get S/L defense, less effort than fire actually. Or res, doesn't matter

I always see this response given. I'd like to counter: Why should I team with you to get to 50? I can team with you after I'm 50, but why specifically, do I need to team with you to get to 50? *You is a general stand-in by the way!* Do you need help with mishs? I can still do that on my 50 with you. Is there some benefit to me being on the team that you absolutely MUST have?

I think this sums it up nicely. I resonate with the highlighted portion. It's why I stopped being so well, argumentative. It's not benefiting me, the other individual, or well any others caught up in the argument. I wanted to pass along this tool so that others can maximize enjoyment of visiting these forums, cutting out the arguments and whatnot, and once they're done still have ample energy to focus on real world matters, or the actual game if they so choose.

It was a generic term i heard round these here parts. Honestly? I could care less what any of you think almost about well, anything(no offense. It’s a game, and I don’t know you folks all that well), but I think if people are slinging the term around, I’d try and include it in the blurb. I should add, wrong or right in CoH is irrelevant. But missing key info in feedback threads thanks to the usual back n forth between the same offenders? Not great.

Tired of the back 'n forth? Simply go under your account, go to 'Ignored Users', then type in the name of those who you wish to ignore. No more back n forth, no more constantly negative people in your thread! Use it. Love it. Pass it on! *EDIT: changed phrasing around a bit to uh, be better suited to discussion I guess?

"Cheating"? Ehh not really. The content here imo isn't worth taking what will probably be my 70 something 50 through. I think you've failed to understand this: This community has been around FAR longer than HC. We have ALL PLAYED ALL OF THE CONENT ALMOST in COH, hence why lot's of folks farm nowadays. Plus, I mean, literally 66%(Praetorian and Redside) isn't played anymore, not because of AE, but because people have grievances w/redside or praetoria for one reason or another, so AE nerfs wouldn't fix this. Folks want to blame everything including tectonic plates on Farming, but fail to understand just how outdated, boring, and repetitive CoH leveling content is post your, I dunno, 10th 50 at most? *Of course opinions will vary. Some of you play this content like it's candy/it's awesome every single time, to which I say good for you. I

If AE becomes crap it wouldn't be great either. I won't, don't at least anymore, PUG to 50 in this game so long as I have an account. I know if AE died, I would simply find another farm tactic. If anything, getting rid of AE would simply laterally shift farming. Oh and I would assume most farmers would(and at that point, should) charge for farms again.

I’ve done this with 12-15 50s, all at a time when I only had about 3 or so hours to play at most on a good day. It’s done through future proofing, where I basically stored inf so I can immediately buy my builds. It’s actually the legit only reason I still play this game. Well that and family still play It took me about a 3 years(didnt play CoH for half of one) to do this all though.

I highly recommend putting the offenders on your forums ignore list. I have them there, and trust me, when they show up to a thread it’s no longer a pain because their post are hidden. I recommend you all do this.

If I can get the ravager so help me I will grind for MONTHS. Do you hear me, MONTHS!

The only problem I have is with the phrasing. It’s not an “issue” for folks to get maxed out characters, this is meant to be a past time and nothing more, so having them get a maxed character in a few hours(takes me personally 5 if I get the time) isn’t terrible. Now, I get the aether stuff. In fact, upon thinking on this further, this could be just what I needed to get back a couple bil.

Im gonna be honest: At this point it’s too late for a PR person. Whoever it is, they will be polarizing to another aspect of the community and then something something favoritism towards this or that subgroup. Trust me on this one, pulling from this limited pool of players will end horribly. I’m not sure of a better alternative but that would NOT go well, of that, I am sure. *I hate leaving on a negative note, so maybe as a solution, one of the current GMs can be a liason?

Something something elephant 😛

I dont blame the GMs, I always blame the forums being well, the forums. I assume that certain posters will post, and pardon my french, but utterly stupid shit( some have even decided to show up here :P), both for and against the devs. But, I don’t blame all the GM’s for moderation here. That does NOT mean I think they’re infalliable, they’ve made plenty mistakes, and will continue to do so because they’re just players like the rest of us. What cant be fixed is the same sycophants on both sides spewing their crap.

I thought I posted my agreement with this sentiment last night, but I guess I must have forgot! I may not of liked every addition brought in a page, but I do enjoy the people behind the additions. They're at least TRYING something, ya know? In any case, lookin forward to some new toons on Page 5.

This. Good god so much this. But like I said, if I think im right and they think they’re right, all thats lost is the time spent arguing.

If that’s your takeaway from this, alrighty. I’m moving past this. All I get is a headache and all you get is to keep replying.

Did I strike a nerve here? Which part made you feel this response was appropriate? I never wanted ALL of CoH to be a sandbox but now I have to ask: What’s your angle? Do you want more “earned”(It’s a videogame, what are you earning? Do folks think having imaginary trinkets will earn the adoration of others?) content and thusly thats why you hate the sandboxy nature of CoH? Remember, this game was ALWAYS meant to stay and be casual for the reason I mentioned( RL) to keep the game fun and accessible. Are you upset people want to maintain this, and are extrapolating this anger to a fear of the whole game becoming this?

I mean, CoH aint an MMO anymore, least in my eyes. I can agree on powercreep but what I disagree on is it being bad: I will say this until folks get it. People have lives now, jobs, families, ya know, normal stuff like that. It being a sandbox is a GOOD thing imo. In fact, if it is one, maybe it’ll draw more casual players( the kind this game wants AND was made for by the way). Having dedicated folks is nice, but then it becomes the same people and, to me, makes the game stale.

They aren’t that powerful tbh outside of Fire and maybe Ice for offense. Defensively eh. But folks here are purposefully ignoring the main part that proves no nerfs need to happen: Slotting.

Thats been my opinion too, but I like to remind folks: This is not a retail game. We can benefit from realizing this. Blindly defending the devs wont keep this game here, not to say being overly negative is helpful, but I think a lot of the more uh…vocal positive supporters, yeah let’s call em that, can seriously calm down.
