This is a fantastic rule and should really apply at all times for everything.

I like this idea

This wasn't for a company, so we didn't carry it around the bases. Clearly we were amateurs.

I used to play slow pitch softball in my 20s and catcher was my favorite because I didn't have to run and I could drink beer between pitches.

That's a terrible comparison since people need shelter for things like staying alive and health. People need Influence in CoH for things like showing off and being generally Ebil. I get your point. I just like to say that at this point since it is so relatively easy, I no longer use purples as any sort of reliable way to measure if someone is a casual player or not.

It's all about the negative connotation of the word exploit. People often see it as an issue of morality and bad intentions, so when something they do is considered an exploit if offends them.

I use SHIFT+LBUTTON "powexec_name Lightning Rod" and it will land wherever my mouse is pointing.

I mean, people are optimizing both missions and builds to maximize influence, why wouldn't it be more efficient? And being Chinese or not is 100% irrelevant to the topic.

I think coming up with different ideas would be a more productive since I don't see the HC team making the requested change.

It's only happened once, but one of my character's base is on top of the head of the statue behind Maria Jenkins in PI. Logged in one time and somebody was standing there trespassing, so I nudged them off the head to the shoulder. I showed them.

Those all ATs that secretly wish they were Scrappers. Other ATs are Scrappers pets.

Phantasmagoric - Ice/Fire Blaster Bung - Dark/Earth Dominator MunkiLord - Dark/SR Scrapper Impeccable Girl - Elec/SD Scrapper Thoughtless - Arch/Temp Blaster

This is a terrible list. There are two types of players, Scrappers and those that want to be Scrappers.

In general I agree with you, my Scrappers are sturdier. Except my Ice/Fire Blaster, I feel that can stand with pretty much any Scrapper I have. It's the only character I've done a solo Master ITF with as well(+2x5 I think) and it's definitely a better farmer than any of my Scrappers. But I only play Blasters in melee range unless I'm trying to solo an AV, I even took Provoke on my Arch/Temp Blaster. Provoke sucks btw. Scrappers > Blasters > Dominators > Other Stuff

If that were true then the protection of speech wouldn't be written into so many laws across the world. I didn't include the rest of the post because this statement is ridiculous in almost every context.

I still think the best option is to make it super easy and convenient to dump all salvage of a chosen tier on the market at a price chosen by the player. Every once in a while I'll click a button or right click option to post all white salvage for X influence. Or even sell all salvage at once if that's what I want, with each tier going for a price I have preset. So press this one button and every piece is on the market. It would be a win-win. Sure the people wanting to turn it off completely aren't getting exactly what they want, but a few button clicks seems like a good compromise that will also add more supply for other players.

I'm not opposed to a warning pop up as long as it can be turned off like the high list fee warning. However I think using the last five isn't reliable as long as the last five showing the wrong prices is still around.

I think a better solution would be to add an option in the right click menu to post all salvage of a chosen rarity for a chosen price to the market at once. This would allow quick dumping of salvage and have the added benefit of creating additional supply. My current method is to right click on white salvage and press 'S' to delete the stack.

Few suggestion: For Thunderstrike I would use the Chance for Fire Damage Proc instead of something else, perhaps taking out the Dam/Recharge. The proc going off will do more damage than the 5% you lose from enhancements, and the recharge time difference is about a third of a second. For the Scrapper ATOs keep in mind that Lightning Rod and Shield Charge cannot crit, so if you are like me and lead with those two attacks put the Superior Critical Strikes set in whichever of the two you use last. I would drop Havoc Punch and pick up Jacob's Ladder instead. The DPA is similar and Jacob's Ladder is a cone. Havoc Punch is terrible. That being said, it may not be worth the effort if you have to move around a bunch of sets to remain at softcap. It can be done, I just don't know how much work it would take. +4x8 with bosses will likely remain a challenge since single target damage is so low for this combo, it can be pretty slow at times. It's certainly doable and you can even take down AVs, but it's time consuming. In general I prefer Assault Hybrid over Melee, but if you feel you need the extra survivability it makes sense. and hejtmane is correct in creating those binds for LR and SC, makes life so much better. edit: Also use enhancement boosters in your recharge enhancements, purple sets, and anything not catalyzed. Boosting the two in Hasten to +5 puts you at perma.

I've done the first mission so far, but I liked it. It's turn based like XCOM, but I'm not yet sure if you get to customize every hero or just your character. It's cheesey sorta like Freedom Force. I'd play it more but I started watching The Last Kingdom the same day and that's pretty much gonna be my life until I'm caught up.

I farm solely to powerlevel my alts. I don't enjoy it, which is why I usually try and influence whip other people to powerlevel me.

Just ran across this game on Steam https://store.steampowered.com/app/812870/Sentinels_of_Freedom/ and it looks like it has some potential. Reminds me a bit of Freedom Force just from looking at it, though this is completely turned based. Haven't played it yet as I just bought it, but I'm hoping this is a lot of fun. Anyone else heard of this game, this universe, or have any thoughts?

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand, sent! Also, pride shouldn't get in the way of having fun!

Watch the yellow recipes/enhancements, those are the ones that sell for a lot more than you may think.

I haven't been playing recently, so I'm falling behind on giving away and/or wasting influence.
