Can someone count for me how many times Shang died?
Oh, that's not as bad as I thought.
I just watched like the first 10 minutes and thought he was crap for dying like 20 times.

does this count as suicide?
also the exp isn't all there because my aran friend wanted to watch me before he left and his body pressure probably knocked some off (about 80k exp i guess)
Do you always have to go out of your way to respond to posts with relatively unrelated comments that make everything about you? Serious question.
Sorry to come off as a stickler but dear god you do it EVERYWHERE on this site and it's incredibly annoying. Here's an idea: if it doesn't relate to you, only bother quote replying if you have something congratulatory or directly related to the original poster to say, instead of inserting yourself into something that wasn't really inviting you to do so in the first place.
If none of these options fit the situation, but you still want to acknowledge the post, +1/-1 it. I mean c'mon, dude.
I would think that's the reason why I also +1'ed it since that's something I pretty much do for all my congratulatory posts whether it's the potential thread, the level up thread or the achievement thread. Sometimes I don't know what to say, sometimes I'm just +1'ing because it's impressive and maybe sometimes I just find it funny since I don't respond to every single thing I +1/-1 for.
Just so you know I don't think saying only 'Congratulations!' is very much better, it's literally one word and I wouldn't even have said anything if the post wasn't somewhat ironic what with Pink Bean defeating Pink Bean which was almost the same case as mine. Self-centred? Maybe, but you can't say that I didn't acknowledge the defeat on its own as I was pretty much saying "Yes, that is technical suicide and I thought the same when I helped my friend who fancies himself as Pink Bean do it. Also, we had a good laugh camping for the last few minutes".
After all this is about experience; I simply don't comment if I don't find anything remarkable about it or if I don't relate in some way just like I don't +1 or -1 every little thing even if I have opinions about it since I want it to actually count but you did remind me that I have a PB run to try this week so maybe I can make that all about me. :f7:
(Anyhow, in spite of my counter-argument and sarcasm I'll do this less because I don't like being thought of as not contributing much even if it doesn't break any rules. Just give me some time to improve on it. :c)
Another way to think about it: you used "I" pronouns 23 times in this quoted post. Not including other personal pronoun forms "me" or "my."
It really boils down to absolutely relevance. Yes, your posts are usually relevant in that they're responding on the same subject, but - and this is the crux of the issue - they're usually not relevant to even mention. In other words, worthwhile. We're glad you also have a fond memory of a Pink Bean run, but was it worth the minute and bandwidth space in posting? Is it adding to the discussion in any engaging way, or it just a side-thought best reserved for instant chat forms where such comments normally exist?
At the end of the day it's about editing your comments before you make them - as in, making the judgment call as to whether or not the post you're about to make will actually contribute to the conversation, or merely add a tangential quip that will likely be scrolled past by the majority reading the thread. And heck, even editing them before you post them (this goes for everyone), because, for example, in your quoted post you make a lot of common sense/captain obvious comments that aren't even necessary to write, such as:
That's the point of the system, you don't have to reiterate it.Quote:

My 1st HT solo, and waited for the drops. :glitter:
I hate fighting the HT heads because of the massive lag in those two maps.

My best attempt post-hypers. I'm hoping our Unlimited patch slows down that dumb green attack :f3:

@FrozNlite
agree with you totally.
pop over to the MSEA forums. you would see him over glorifying himself to satiate his ego and never failing to construct smart aleck and redundant comments.
P.S. he can't take criticisms at all. reinforced by the fact of the long paragraph he typed, trying so hard to justify his comments.

I find it surprising that I actually got that far considering my Mille is only about 130k+ per line, but having Cygnus go on DR cooldown probably explains why I can do much better than before. I dodged all the Dark Genesis attacks pretty smoothly but tornado attacks are a significant problem now that she will use it in either direction and the mobs being buffed both in HP and accuracy means that my chances of survival drop drastically once she summons them. I fell because of being tornado'ed once and another time when she tornado'ed me while my PE was on cooldown.
I'll be using Heal for the next attempt and see how much further I get but I won't be posting the results unless it's a lot better. :f7:
Oh, about Dark Genesis: The worst part of it is that you could be standing at what you think is a safe area but as long as she's still in attack mode more nodes might pop up. Wheel consuming indeed seeing that very few classes can flee on demand.

What the pineapple does that even MEAN?
Finally :f2:
Ironically, I found it easier to not use the Potion Pot on Auto Pot.

I'd wager it's just a bad translation. That or it means screw you, just because I don't have auto-heals any more doesn't mean I can't cheat by summoning Sir (?) Shinsoo.
(To be clear Shinsoo actually healed Cygnus before I went out but I managed to capture her HP prior to the heal.)
