So while I'm at it I went to the CoH forums to research what I'm suspecting are bogus propaganda and misinformation that seems to be circulating amongst my colleagues at my super-group, The Heretics.
Story: Skills (as in DnD style skills) will be implemented in the game.
Information: I find skills mentioned no where in the forums in context. Statesman mentions the necessity for a lone person to be able to solo. I am thinking that having skills would be detrimental to that as it requires the cooperation of a team to have a healthy balance of skills. Which, if I may meander from point for a moment, is probably part of the teamwork of tabletop RPG's that can't be recreated online for that very reason.
Story: Our powers will be shut off at the implementation of CoV.
Information: Again, I find nothing in any of the CoV FAQs that covers this. It does mention that when joining up with CoV your VILLAIN will have no powers until he/she gets recruited by a super-villain group. It is my suspected belief that this was misunderstood, misinterpreted, misread, or misheard and passed to me.
If anyone else has any feedback, feel free to post. In the meantime let me leave you with today's Buddhist conundrum:
Friction impedes movement, but without friction nothing could be moved.
Oh yeah, and I am roaming now, so forgive me if I do not answer my phone.
"Dungeon & Dragons" illustrator David Sutherland dies of liver failure, level-three orc. Reads the Fark headline.
This is weird not only because I play DnD, but my brother's name is David Sutherland. That and the city of my birth is mentioned in the article.

Next time Pink, please email me a few months in advance that way I can line up some time off, put some money aside, and get a passport.
In another universe, I would have forked over my money to fly to London to see the band and sip tea. But Dain has to go and get married on that day... and I don't have the money to fly out... and it's the last day of my vaction.... CRUEL WORLD!
Don't let me give any of you the idea that there's any place I would rather be than Dain's wedding. Friday's the bachelor party! Hopefully I'll be ready to fly out on Sunday.
