That's great. I'm a fan of rule 0. But what does your previous DM's special decisions have to do with your next one?

Why do you keep putting advertising links in your posts?

maybe it is called keen I dont know, the DM called it sharpness.

Nothing absolutely nothing if the DM dosent like ti hell tell me to take it off sheesh, its just a character I have, he wasnt created he wasnt fudged, its the only comperable 7th level charater I have. You guys are acting like Im trying to sneak something by. Sorry thats not the case, when a DM tells me bring in a 7th level character I get what I have, if he dosent like it I dont play it.

And why does every one think I have ads in my posts? Ive gone back 6 times theres no ads Im not putting ads in. Are there ads Im just not seeing and some one did something to my account? this is the first Ive heard of this.
 

First of all, please keep it friendly, everyone.


Focallength, the ad links in your posts probably mean you unknowingly have some kind of malware (kinda like a virus) on your computer.

Here's a handy guide about such crap, including how to get rid of it: Guide.

I'm not an expert, but here's what's worked well for me in the past: Run an anti-virus program (here is a good free one if you need one) and if that doesn't take care of it, run as many dedicated tools against such things as necessary (AdAware SE is a good free one, IMO).
Make sure to tell AdAware to get its newest updates before using it to ensure it knows your malware.

I hope it helps, though not every anti-malware tool might be able to get rid of every single type of malware. In that case, refer to the guide above and if you need help, feel free to start a thread in our software forum.

By the way, read the instructions of all such programs carefully and check their settings to ensure they do what you need them to (and nothing you don't want them to).

I want to apologize, or rather sympathize. I didn't see any links, so I suppose that McAfee must have blocked them. I just feel badly that you're just getting the ugly end of the abuse stick in this thread, and I think it's as much over the links as it is the character. While the character seems okay to me, the general concensus seems to be that it's overpowered and that, somehow that makes you a bad person for owning the character sheet, for feeling that you have a right to badwrongfun, or that your last DM gave your character some neat gear.

You've been around long enough to know that folks aren't always so vicious in their constructive criticisms here at ENWorld, and previous posts by the folks who've posted in this thread have lead me to believe that they're all reasonable folks, and I still believe that.

Anyway, sorry that you've been at the brunt of this thread; that's not cool, but, ever so rarely, it happens.

Good luck with the new game, and hopefully, this thread has already given you as much of an answer as you expected, even if it wasn't what you'd hoped, or how it might, ideally, have been phrased.

Edit: okay, I see the link now. I guess I just tend to ignore most links.

(To help you figure out what's happening:)

In your first post, the word "game" has a link to http://[deleted]/cgi-bin/ezlclk.fcgi which is an advertising page (I deleted the server name).

I googled "ezlclk.fcgi" and found some other complaints about it, but I couldn't find specific instructions for getting rid of it. Darkness posted some good tips. If AdAware doesn't find anything you can try Spybot S&D which is also good.
 

It sounds like an EasyClick thing I've killed several times over. It appears there's an IP address in the link - could be useful information...;)

...and now that I say that, I see that it's related to a toolbar. If you have an EasyClick toolbar, or something similar, get rid of it. I guess it's still not legal to...take measures against any website, but if someone were to...disable that advertising hub, I'd be terribly amused.

...and another edit - it's hosted by a New York company who I just informed via e-mail. Hopefully, they'll quarantine that site, which seems to be a hub for EasyClick...sort of a tattle-tale way to solve the problem, but it's fine with me. :)

There are at least 3 in this post, 2 of which are in the quote but not in what was quoted, so it's likely something being added on your system.

as for the character, you won't know till you get to the game if you're too powerful. Seems like you have a bit more equipment than normal, but you're slightly lower level. Your stats aren't too bad given the GM's generation system, but could be on par with the rest of the party. And if the spell is an issue, it's easy to drop. If the concept is sound, then the character will likely just need to be tweeked to be ok (perhaps he lost his armor or sword at some point), but nothing realy bad.

I don't know why people are tearing into you. Other than people not believing the stat rolls (understandable), every game is different in how it gives out gear and such. I've got a character I know would never be allowed in most other games, but he's legal in my current game, and is on par with everyone else, so it doesn't matter.

Feats: weapon focus (B.Sword), divine might (use a turning ttempt to get
+4 damage on all attack rolls for one round) Endurance, Diehard,
Power attack, Imp. overrun

I think he might just be a tad over the top and I dont know how the other players are equipped.

yea, he's got great stats, but you took Endurance, Diehard, and Improved Overrun. I think those more than compensate for his good stats. curious, how is he proficent with the B. Sword? you took w focus, but not Exotic Weapon (B. Sword). Besides if the average was at 7th and you were comming in at 6th then he is barely keeping up.
edit:
I completed reading the current posts and yes a b Sword can be used as a martial weapon, but if you use it two handed you are always better off with at two handed sword. 1d10 vs 2d6. your character has more wealth than any of my overpowered 15th level characters (just an fyi). lastly, permenecied spells are ALWAYS a bad idea as for all they cost gp/xp they can still be dispelled.
Thank you for you consideration.
