    Rat Bastard Reccomendations

    The problem I see with your description is in the text I quoted. It led them to itself - they didn't use it - it used them. At least that's the way I would interpret things. How far would you have taken this? The player's character is treading water and notices a blinking light. The character...

    Frequency of TPKs?

    We had a stretch where every time we hit levels 5-6 there would be a TPK - that was back in our 2E days. It's still a running joke in new campaigns - ooohh, we're 5th level, Brian's going to kill us all now. Then it switched to levels 12-14 (near the end of 3.5). I've been playing since 78-79...

    Surrender or Die!

    Usually what I see is the players get all over the one who started the fight because he chose the wrong opening tactic/target...

    Surrender or Die!

    I have yet to see anyone surrender in these situations - because someone always refuses, starts the fight, and at that point everyone else joins in.

    Do You Blog?

    I neither blog nor read blogs - I have no desire to spend that much time on the computer. I only post occasionally here - typically only when I have a rpg question that someone else may be able to help with or on something that humors me. This thread humored me tonight. I don't use the computer...

    Burning nostalgic for Alternity

    I haven't seen a clone of Alternity. It's one of the few game systems I purchased without having anyone up for playing it - I think i have everything. The reason I bought it was because of a story hour here. I now have to go look for the story hour and reread it.

    NAD - which one is attacked the most ?

    Right now it has been my experience that we have at least one creature that attacks will or fort in every encounter. I'm playing the rogue - guess which are my lowest defenses.

    Why Have You Disabled Experience Points?

    Is the ability to toggle showing the xp comments on or off (along with status + other things that make 1 sentence posts take up so much vertical space) a possibility in the future?

    Why Have You Disabled Experience Points?

    Hmmm - it just shows Unread 0, Total 0 - and I never would have known to look there either.

    Why Have You Disabled Experience Points?

    Sorry for the thread-jack but how are people notified when someone has given xp? Does it require some other account option be turned on? I was doing a quick scroll through this thread and found out someone gave me xp - but i would normally never know because I seldom reread my own posts and...

    Why Have You Disabled Experience Points?

    Because it is one more thing that i do not want or need in an RPG discussion board.

    Keeping Track of Rules Updates

    Our group apparently doesn't. We usually don't find out something has errata until after there is a question about how it interacts with something new at the table. We then look it up - the DM has a DDI subscription - and we find out it was changed 3 months ago and how we are playing it is now...

    Help with Hide in Plain Sight

    Party synergy is going to be tough - the wizard has at most two powers that provide concealment and I'm not sure any of the other characters have any powers that move other allies....I may just retrain that utility power. Its just a little too situational.

    Is there an easy way to put someone on your ignore list

    Thanks I wonder if it would be possible to put this back in the drop down menu when you click on a poster's name again???

    Help with Hide in Plain Sight

    I'm currently playing a human rogue with the Hide in Plain Sight utility power and am having trouble getting to use it in an effective manner. The character also has Fleeting Ghost and Chameleon. I'm looking for ways to get out in the middle of an area - while still being hidden - so I can use...

    Is there an easy way to put someone on your ignore list

    It doesn't appear to be there unless - like i stated earlier - I'm missing something....:erm:

    Ignore lists

    I have 50 - 70 on my ignore list at any one time - it's a rotating number. I'm certain a number are people who no longer post and another number are people whose posts are excessively long - I get tired of scrolling through to get the one point they are trying to make with 10,000 words. I have...

    Is there an easy way to put someone on your ignore list

    Way back when there was a drop down menu that made it easy to put people on the ignore list - is there something similar now and I'm just missing it?
