Fabrics can't hold crayons or paint brushes, so how would they color?

 

That depends on the kind of crayon or paint

 

I don't think many fabrics can hold brushes though.. I'll give you that one

There's a fine line between a numerator and a denominator but only a fraction of people understand that.

In my time of dying
Want nobody to mourn
All I want for you to do
Is take my body home

Meet me, Jesus, meet me
Ooh, meet me in the middle of the air
If my wings should fail me, Lord
Oh, please meet me with another pair

Well, well, well, so I can die easy
Oh-oh, well, well, well, so I can die easy

Jesus gotta make up, somebody, somebody
Oh, oh, Jesus gotta make up

Won't you let me in?
I never did no harm
I never did no wrong

Oh, oh, Gabriel, oh, let me blow your horn
Let me blow your horn
Oh, I never did no harm
Did no wrong

And I see them in the fields, yeah
And I hear them under my feet
And I know it's got to be real
Oh, Lord, deliver me
All the wrong I've done

Well, actually, I think that "wait 5 secs" would stretch to 30s or longer laid out on the dirt for a team mate to act on the opportunity to use vengeance or whatever. The most effective etiquette is the etiquette no player ever uses = communication in team or league chat.

 

So that's the "unwritten rule" we all actually need - use chat to communicate!

 

e.g.

 

"I have vengeance available"

"I'm down, use vengeance plz!"

"Ok, be right with you!"

 

Create consent never assume anything for granted.

Tan me hide when I'm dead, Fred,

Tan me hide when I'm dead.

So we tanned his hide when he died, Clyde,

And that's it hanging on the shed...

When you die on a team, please wait just a few seconds before you pop that START self-rez. Just enough time for your teammates to have a chance to use Vengeance, or rez you. That’s all we ask! Maybe five seconds!

 

Heck.

I'm seeing far too many players bolt to the hospital as soon as they are down ... or quickly afterwards ... even in the middle of a task force.

 

I don't think that I'm the only one on a team that carries extra awakens and has a day job power that can rez people.

There could even be teammate(s) that might have archetype powers that can rez teammates.

If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore.

(It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications)

Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case.

But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable.

Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them.

The problem here is that dead people don't get the benefits of vengeance.  If they did, any self respecting blaster would happily die and wait for the buff.  If there's one thing I've learned, it's that you can always trust people to act in their own self interest.

I have to say, rereading this thread, that I am somewhat sad because nobody made the obvious joke about colouring fabrics

 

The one about how the designer had trouble staying within the lines?

And don't forget the big difference between RIT and RID.

Nein! Das ist nicht Fabric.  Sie ist Farbe.

Sie ist keine Farbe, Sie ist Stoff. Und Stoff können Farben nicht halten.

 

And that's my word play for the day.

Being constantly offended doesn't mean you're right, it means you're too narcissistic to tolerate opinions different than your own.
