I lovez da Ubuntu. I run an Ubuntu 7.10 server at home with Ventrilo, a private WoW server (for the teen and his friends) and a Counter-Strike server. Fun stuff, fun stuff!

I used to run my blogs on PhPNuke (well, actually PostNuke), but changed everything over to WordPress. I’ve found WP to be easier to manage and it seems to be more secure.

There is definitely some stuff that I miss about PostNuke though!

I want to open the Coh (guild/ventrillo/forums/…hopefully scrolling pic) site. Actually I am testing my Ubuntu 7.10 skills and want to show off some PhP nuke…

BTW can you tell Viv to say “Tasty” one more time? lol

You guys take care and keep up the AWESOMESAUCE!!!!!!

Its been forever since I’ve been to CoHFaces. IIRC its to post pictures of the players, not the characters, right?

Ooh- what kind of server? Private game server? Blog? Ventrillo/Teamspeak?

Yet another awe-inspiring show. You two continue to amaze me with your attnetion to podcast professiona levels of quality, matched with extremely informative articles and finally followed up with a friendly spin on the whole kaboodle.
If more podcasters were like you two, Television as we know it would be in trouble.

I agree the pictures thing would be great. Have either of you been to CoHFaces? Its not a bad site, although the pics can sometimes be a bit off topic.

Finally I would like to congratulate you two on officially forcing me to get off my but and set up my very own self-hosted server dedicated to CoH. Thanks guys…. and Viv…could you please say “tasty” one more time? ;}

What’s this? Want a full screen version of the wedding? That’s what demos are for! I just uploaded one from the “dress rehersal” to that includes plenty of costume gawking, all the vows, and the fight afterwards. And it uses game sounds.

Don’t know what a demo is? does! Snag my demo launcher and it’s really pretty easy to view them. They lose a bit (you can’t see my tank’s shovel and the knockback looks pretty wrong, for instance) but it’s full screen, full rez, full sound, and a much smaller file size.

If you are looking for a forum, why not just make a topic on the official forums? Ex-Libris just pointed you out in the Media forum, so I’m thinking that would be a reasonable place to discuss. Seeing as how we already are.

Now about this whole Defender/Healer deal. What you have to realize is that Defenders are more than… ZOMG! Did you just call your character a “t00n”!?!? No… no, I must be hearing things… MUST be…. {shudder ;}

Just found your podcast about a week ago, and wanted to say y’all are awesome!

A little background: I’ve been playing for about 2 years. I’m not a hardcore gamer, but I do enjoy number-crunching from time to time. As a fellow casual gamer, it’s great listening to y’all who don’t concentrate on being “uber” ^_^

Ok, on to my comments:

As a dark defender, I have a bit to say about the rez power: it’s a ranged AoE foe Disorient, so you shouldn’t have to worry much about aggro after using it. Unless, of course, there are a bunch of Lts, Bosses, or AVs…Also, the rez power is very useful for an opening move…I use it more for making my enemies helpless than rezing defeated allies!

Also, being a Kin defender, I have to say that it’s not that hard to solo…since most of the self buffs also debuff the enemy. Just don’t get overconfident, or you might get caught with your pants down (IE, rushing a new mob right BEFORE Fulcrum Shift wore off >.<).

Another great show, you two, chock full of info. I tend to listen to your podcasts in the wee hours of the night (meaning the hours that I tend to wee, but nevermind my incontinence problems), and I find your voices really soothing (unlike that awful Fran Drescher CoH podcast).

Very cool idea about having a place where people can post pics of their characters. The message board idea didn’t sound bad, either, assuming there would be enough interest (hey, I’d frequent it, and I’d even promise not to use it to cheaply plug my comics).

Anyway, keep up the exemplary work. There are plenty of us out here listening, and often you’re the only thing acting as a wedge against our intenet porn addiction…
