The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent
vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums
here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules
document is now in effect.
The current plan is to attempt to start the Holiday Forums on December 23rd sometime during the day. During this time, the Future State Planning Center will remain open. The Holiday Forum merge will last (if Vanilla cooperates) until January 3rd.

... that's exactly what Anonymous would do. And those arrests are fucking ridiculous. Fuck Orlando.
Woah woah woah... pump the brakes.
Nuh uh.
No use in denying it now, we have your post up above. If it was posted on the internet, it must be true!
Not sure if serious[/Fry]
I do think the arrests are dumb, and I also had misconceptions about Anon I guess. Maybe they all aren't just immature children being jerks. Radio guy just now had a man claiming to be part of Anon (his voice was all masked) there's no way to validate his claim, but he sounded intelligent, well spoken, and like a nice dude... its like my world view has been shattered.

Yeah. It's like I've said before, Anonymous acts against morally-bankrupt people / organizations. Lulzsec just kinda does whatever. I don't know how people ignore the distinction. Ignorance I guess. Life isn't black and white.
They've done some really good things, they've also done some terrible.
Holy shit. My body is not ready.
I hope this is a good sign.
Fix'd.
Good. Level 5 was getting pretty crappy there.
The problem is that Anonymous isn't a group. It's... anonymous. Just a bunch of random unnamed people acting as a group. In any attack/protest/whatever, there's going to be a mix of dumb twats, intelligent and reasonable people, and any number inbetween. Anyone that claims to speak for anonymous as a whole is usually full of shit and just getting their five minutes of fame.
Old PA forum lookalike style for the new forums | My ko-fi donation thing.
White Knight has been their only real stumble in my opinion. Otherwise, they're the new Squaresoft.
At worse, I think it'll pretty much get the same titles as the 360/PS3 with a pause menu, map, or inventory screen being moved to the controller screen. Some will make magic happen, but yes, I believe devs wont necessarily bring their A-game.

You are wrong. WRONG. WKC was goofy fun. That game is them coming back. Could have been better, yes, but I have few games as pretty. It was finally the single player MMO I always wanted. Rogue Galaxy and DQ8 are their big their big screw-ups, those games were awful.
I also just don't like that they've swerved into puzzle games.
They will always rock due to that classy gentleman.

Well I can see where your preferences lie. Makes sense that you're dissatisfied with the current direction then. I would be angry as well.

Sort of. But all you had to do is get by a save point and spam Orphan McSuperboys dust devil attack over and over in fights until you over level the place and then just waltz through. Otherwise you'd get raped by lizardbugs. And there was so much in the game that just didn't matter at all to the game itself. And oh-so-grindy. I love grinding but RQ's grinding just didn't make sense. The bug trapping alone was enough to drive someone completely insane.
I remember rubber banding my controller to grind roses of some sort. I remember reading a book and looking up every now and then, bouncing with glee everytime I found a rose. Good times. Oh, and the crafting system was weird but oddly satisfying.

Yeah, there were some damn big bright spots in the game, I won't deny it. But that cookie dough did not bake well.
I like Layton as well, the best con-artist ever. Parades around all dapper like, has this reputation as a genious but the kid is always solving the puzzles and reading stuff. Layton is an illiterate simpleton!
I don't think this metaphor works, because chocolate chip cookie dough is always delicious.
I didn't say it was chocolate chip cookie dough.
He was also so great with the ladies that one of them

I remember watching my friend get to the final boss and then encountering that glitch where every spell/attack would only do 1 damage.
Except for voo doo dance.
Which did like, 200 damage.
To a boss that had somewhere near 50,000+ hit points.
He got to become really comfortable with that attacks cut scene.
Hm. Sounds like they're moving pieces into place so that Kaz can replace Howard Stringer. And Stringer probably isn't long for Sony, since his 3D strategy isn't working and the company as a whole is going "meh." Financially speaking.
In other Sony news:
Was Invisimals that good?
I wondered what the hell even happened to that game. People were literally drooling about it, as the beacon of salvation for the PS3 (as though the situation was so dire on it) and then....nothing. Like a goddamn moratorium on talking about WKC. I'd forgotten it even came out.
"We don't talk about White Knight Chronicles."
I think SP is a great game. Multi is a wreck tho. The grind is awful. All the missions don't matter since there's just 3 that will give you the best payout for the time involved.
I got to a part in the SP that was basically a maze filled with large monsters that take 10-15 minutes to kill. So if you go the wrong way your punishment was to fight 10 of these monsters.
Pink, you have some weird bizarro tastes.
I'm sure you meant to say "refined".
And I can't say that WKC was good but I did enjoy it.

Maybe I can get a job there. As a janitor.
... I have no relevant talents to the industry.
The janitorial arts are a proud craft!
Would you mind posting the full list? I always forget where to find them.
