Biggest pet peeves...

[ImpousVileTerror]

Faction Chat is still a setting, so that's a possibility.

And sometimes messages just get lost in the shuffle.  I sometimes get dozens of messages when I advertise a team.  It's not an easy thing to always reply to everyone.

You mean its not pronounced like: Carry Bean?

For in game purposes my biggest peeve is people who seem to think that the game is some kind of advance science and that only THEY have mastered it through playing how THEY deem to be the right way to play. Therefore no one that power levels could possible know as much as them or how to play the game etc. 

 

My second biggest is people who cry about making their character how they want. I mean sure, we should all make characters to our own standards of fun to play that is the entire point. But i do think it is a bit crappy to join a TF with people thinking they took on a damage dealer to find out that you have 25 power choices spread across the healing pools, 2 different travel pools, stealth and teleports etc. Just like if you were to have made a defender or a controler and then said you only pick powers that you gain benefit from for your own attacks, so no fort, no clear mind etc. I mean make a character that is fun sure, but come on there is a limit. And if  you are at that threshold it prob just means you should have made a different AT to begin with.

Those little sticks that get put through sandwiches. You have to pull them out to eat the sandwich causing it to fall apart. What's the point other than presentation?

it's not presentation. It's to keep them from falling apart. They usually put a flag there instead of just sticks so you see it and don't bite into it jamming up the roof of your mouth. 

The "proper" way to deal with this is to hold your sammich securely before you take the flag out.

Note: where I'm from, we rarely use these flags since there's barely enough between our sammiches that needs holding together 😃

Yeah, but they keep sticking them in my peanut butter sandwiches...

Nerf necroposting.

@Greycat, then those people are either dumb or evil... or it's one humongous peanut butter sammich... which shouldn't need it because the pb does the job even if you have a stack of 12. I'd go with dumb.

That reminds me of another.  People who don’t put peanut butter on both slices of bread. If you don’t do that, you will end up with jelly seepage.

@EmmySkyYes... I mean no... sort of... 

It just so happens I enjoy your comments (along with MTeague, Vile, and a few others), and that they appear in the threads I'm interested in.

I don’t know, sounds like you’re asking for honey seepage.

No.  The honey and the bread do a little chemical interaction thing where it almost feels like delicious soft crystals of nectar.  If there is seepage you've added too much.

Or reversed the ingredients so the honey's on the outside.

 

And... yeah, that's an apt description.

People that don't know that you spread peanut butter to the edge of one slice of bread and the jelly shy of the edge of the other slice so that the peanut butter seals the jelly in.

 

Also, people that think it's odd to but plain potato chips in their PB&J.

I dunno... Honey on a PBJ just sounds like it would make the entire thing way too sweet to actually eat.

 

I mean, your average glop of grape jelly is already pushing the Sugar Bomb limits as it is. Honey would just be... yikes. TOO MUCH. o_0

I prefer Ruffles in my PB&J. My all time favorite sandwich.

[DoctorDitko]

I like sliced bananas in mine. With damson preserves and Jif peanut butter.

One of the few sandwiches not made better by sourdough bread.

people who don’t use a single insp whilst playing - why? crunch down those insps baby, enjoy the free buffs

 

they drop like crazy during a good team, there’s no good reason not to use them other than some bizarre ego insecurity of “i don’t need insps”

Or, more likely, they have their inspirations set already. For example, in my case instead of a big bag of random inspirations there are two neat rows of greens for emergency healing, one row of purples to combat defense debuffs, one row of accuracy (I do low level content a lot and Tsoo/Circle of Thorns are painful to whittle while ToHit debuffed to the gills), one emergency blue if sapped, two breakfrees for emergency CC break (DAMN YOU FEARS!) and one emergency orange.

 

I have tried the macros to combine insps into making reds but found that in a group I don't get enough insps to keep up with the expenditure. It's still good practice when soloing though.

I use insps when I need them. Generally speaking, on most of my alts, they are for "oh crap" moments, and I like to know what I have and where it is for those very moments. If you are using them constantly they are scattered all over the place and there is no guarantee you'll have what you need, or have time to combine to get what you need, before it's too late. Equally I have no problem with people that use them all at once. It's just a preference thing.

[MoonSheep]

I see the alternate argument but have a differing view

 

Even if I’ve setup my insp tray for a tough AV battle I’ll still use the left most line of insps and mash my F1 key to clear them out whenever full. To not use them is being inefficient and missing out on additional buffs 

 

Another pet peeve are ranged characters who stay solely at range when I am blessing the earth with God’s Fulcrum Shift. Come close and feel the warmth of our Kinetic Lord (amen)
