Thanks. Add another to my collection of Netters that hate me. Oh how will I surive? Oh, easy. I'll eat food, and drink some liquid. That's how.

He's a Ninja. Ninjas are known for holding grudges so what did ya expect?

LOL True some of your alter egos posted reasonably well, and in the rules (for the most part). However, sadly, it's the case of them being punished for being an alter ego of someone who was banned. :D

Gabrielle is evil. She stole and copied my post and made it her own!

Human paladins don't cry over allowing goblins to be killed. Human paladins wouldn't survive 2 seconds in drow society. Human paladins see things in black and white; Drizzt if you actually read the books definitely doens't. He may be 'good'; but he's most certainly not 'black and white good'. Drizzt is shaped by his heritage, and culture as much as anyone. In fact, he lives in constant fear of being like his fellow drow. Every mistake he makes he worries it's the first step to damnation. Drizzt is a fantastically deep character that gets a lots of bashing mostly because of the backlash due to fanboys copying him verbatim. Sadly, the only thing the fanboys ultimately copy is his stats; not his heart and soul. LONG LIVE DRIZZT!

WOW! All I gotta to say is that kalfear has one of the most polite responses I've seen from someone who just got a warning on a message baord. LOL :D I missed the actual post that got the warning; but heh. I'm wodnering what Houkka did that got you so upset as his post in response to your original wasn't too bad. Though you state he has a habit of baiting you so I'm probably not gettingt he whole story by that one post. <> :D

"couldn't go back for a week" Equivelant of a time out? LOL

I play my character. If he is good he doesn't go around killing people, and if an innocent dies I deal with it, and make it a part of the character experience. If he's evil, the character kills wheoever whenever if it will benefit him.

"At which point they just become funny shaped humans. Driizt is no more a dark elf than Eliminster is. Now he's a human with dark skin and odd shaped ears. " That's silly. Drizzt is who he is because he is a drow. He is who he is because of what he's had to deal with in his life. His experiences growing up has shaped him forever, and that's because of what he had to deal with as a drow. Drizzt is no human.

Kirrutu, that's because BIO has decided a strict modding style. They feel they have to because of the number of posters they have so they don't have time to deal with flames, and the like. That's said, there's a lot of flames, and trolls that BIO doesn't touch. And, they have no problem with critical posts about them or their games as long as they're posted reasonably. "My problem is the Biowarians themselves. They think they are the gods of gaming which they are not. They believe their own hype." Nonsense. You just don't like the fact that a few BIO devs have no problem putting you in your place when you go in trolling mode. LOL :D

"agree I suppose that is what I was trying to get at. In D&D monsters are sterotyipical and if you change that too much, then it's not D&D anymore." That's weird. D&D itself has done itself to alter the 'sterotype'. The existence of Drizzt, Athas halflings, dwarven bard characters in novels and in games, and the list goes on proves this. Yet, the funny thing is, all these things are very much D&D. D&D stereotypes are menat to be just that. Stereotypes are meant to broken. In fact, the Forgotten Realms has LG tribe of orcs that are nearly their own race, and culture.

What's so hilarious about Eldar's silly post is that Rhomal is not a big fan of BIO. R00fles! As far as obnoxiousnes goes; ther'es enough of that to go around to all forums including this one.

Around here, it's easily NWN. What's really funny is that many of the same people who constantly bash the game are some of the people who are still playing it. Go figure. Three + years, and I still play it full time. Every other game, no matter how much liked it ie BG or FO or the Ultimas, I play them for 6 months if lucky, and then I throw them in the trash 'cause they have outlived their usefulness. But, not NWN which is the Everlasting Game tm.

"Oh, I made some posts in the Mass Effect forum as well, Volourn." Didn't see those posts; but I'm sure when I do; it'll be basically the same as what you did in NWN2 Forums. Doesn't relaly bother me; but you shouldn't be surprised when people jump all over you for silly stuff like that. P.S. Just read your ME thread. A tad more reasonable than your NWN2 one and if you noticed the responses in return ar emore reasonable too. Still repetitive, and illogical considering how much you like NWN, KOTOR1+2, and espicially JE.

"I'm surprised no one is throwing any gold box D&D games out there. RPG's had a solid renaissance in the late 80's-early 90's with Might and Magic, Ultima, Wizardry, Bards Tale..." Eh. I played all those games or at least mostly the early ones in thats eries. Outside of the Ultimas, those series are horrible role-playing wise. They're basic exploration + levelling games. Fun; but not role-playing espicially matched up with the more modern type role-playing game starting with the Fallouts. I'd have put a few of the Ultimas on my list; but frnakly, I don't remember much about them. Hehe. Even games I pick on for their lakc of role-play like TOEE, IWD2, or even POR2 are as good or even better at role-playing than most 'old skool' CRPGs like M&M and Wizardry. P.S. FF games are a different type of role-playing game if you are wwondering why i put them on the list.

"Well, the fanboys jumped down my case which is to be expected." Eh. Many of the 'fanboys' that were stomping all over you were Obsidian fnaboys; not neccessarily BIO fanboys. Afterall, all you were doing was attacking Obsidian's work on NWN2 over some of the silliest stuff. Big whoop. No jumping, flying, or climbing. Oh the horror of it all!

Lists rock! 1. BG2 1. FO2 1.NWN 4.BG1 5.FO1 RU: FF8, FF6, and JE.

BL is good; but nowhere near that level. Not with the bugs, and some of the worst combat ever. Not to mention the unevenness of the story and role-playing progression.

That was their choice. MS didn't force them to stand in line for 2 days. They're owed the money (either through refund or a new working x-box 360), and that's it. Anything else is legalized theft if the court decides in their favor immorally. The only obligation that MS has to those who may have bought defective x-box 360s is replacement ones or a refund of equal value. Just because someone decided to wiat 2 days in a line for it is not MS's responsibility just like it isn't the Harry Pooter writer's responsibility that people spent days wiating for the newest book or the theatre's fault that someone waite days to watch SW. That's silly talk.

Everyone should sue Bioware, Obsidian, Troika, and every other company then. Theys ell defetcive products! Hahahaha! Quite frankly, suing over something like is another way to legally steal money. If you buy soemthing that doesn't work as intended bring it back and get a refund. And, don't tell me you can't 'cause you can. The only thing people who bought a defective x-box 360 deserve is their money back. That's it. It's a waste of the court's time to dela with such frivilous lawsuits.

I am the absolution of perfection. I am the all in allow. I am the one who made it all possible. P.S. Many have done it better. P.S.S. Why is it when anyone dies they automatically becaome the 'best ever'? Very, very silly. It's one thing to mourn someone passing; it's another thing to make up stuff.

Hmm.. Weird. Last i checked, FO is classless by the very definition of the term. Afterall, all skills, perks, and so forth are available to every character that have the minimum requirements that do not include classes. There is no 'fighter' or 'rogue' class in the game.

"Your really not getting though are you. You say that killing Golems was fun when you were clearly not using the most powerful or even sensible method available. Yet you critisice KOTOR for being easy when you took every advantage of the system." Actually, I didn't use the 'most powerful' stuff in KOTOR2. I played whatever role I decicded to take. I was role-playing a Monk Caster in JE so I played it as such just like I would in KOTOR. And, I didn't do that in JE until my third time through. The problem is that neither KOTOR was worthy enough for me to play a 2nd or espicially a 3rd time through. My first time through JE, I played my character and 'took advantage' of the 'powerful stuff'. Heck, my KOTOR2 characetr never used missle weapons at all, and would only use sword type weapoins ebfore he got the lightsbare. Even with the light sbre gems I would only use the gems that fit the character; not simply the more powerful ones. I don't consider it 'limiting'; I consider it 'role-playing'. "Since your definitions are now out in the open for all to see (and maybe laugh at) no need to continue this." If me role-playing is soemthing to laugh at, laugh away. LOL :D

"Fun taking 10 minutes to kill a golem was it?" Absolutely. Fun, and challenging. Unlike Kreia, and most KOTOR series combat.

"Even without Golem once you know the pattern its no different just add 10 seconds or so." That's nice. You consider something easy afetr you've died a few times, figure out the best way to beat it then kill it quick. That doesn't make it easy at all. As for taking off my armour to fight Kreia? 1. I'm not gonna play KOTOR2 again just to prove a point. I played the game once, enjoyed it, and (semi) moved on. 2. Taking off armour won't make all that much off a difference. On top of that, supposedly like Li is balanced for what characters are an dhave so should Kreia. preusmably she was balanced for character who had all that ph@t lewt. That's what we should be testing to see if the combat is easy. Might as well, take out all gems in JE or all items in KOTOR2 to test. then again, depsite being a Martial Artist in JE; KOTOR2's unarmed characters are much more powerful. Hehe. 3. All taking my armour off would do is me being hit on around an 8 or so instead and with 300+ hit points I'm not too worried... "And that character got crushed by golems." That character learned how to combat dance. Hehe. "No they all work the same there are no active increases in JE its all passive." Not quite true. You fight differently depending on the weapon. Staves have longe rrwach, swords are quicker, and axe is slower but can push enemies even frther back than normal. So, no, they don't work the same. P.S. To get back on topic, to me, role-playing itslef has very little to do with how the combat plays out. Both BL and JE have some of the best role-playing in any game I've seen yet both have RT combat. Go figure.
