Kaasoljoyyx Wrote:There are 2 ways to interpret this because he included a video

A. "This guy" could refer to the mercedes in the video that he posted
B. "This guy" could refer to the angelic burster stating that the AB and the mercedes are the same

Due to the fact that he included the word "also" makes it option B. though. (Did not see that word but my point still stands that english language can be very ambiguous sometimes)

And if you've ever taken another language e.g. Spanish, you'd realize how ambiguous it can be. For example

English: Can I take your order?

This can refer to 1 person or multiple people.

Spanish: They have "usted" and "ustedes" to distinguish between 1 person and multiple people.

If you feel english is not an ambiguous language in some cases, then back it up instead of implying I'm an idiot and have no idea what I'm talking about.

If you're really really basic, sure.
"Can I take your order?"

"Order," is actually pluralized in most cases when you can tell you are talking to a group of people, as table 1 with 5 people, does not have a single order, but a group of orders.

In Spanish, I do believe they'd also use a singular for addressing an unknown amount of people. Such as at a drive-through.

Thus, an example of how both are equally as ambiguous, and not ambiguous at the same time. Your examples are over simplified and completely ignore context, and in this context, his post should have only been read one way. As there is no relevance to comparing some random Mercedes to an Angelic Burster in this topic. Not that I wish to argue with you, nor insult you, and I hope I am not coming across in such a way, I merely felt that you're describing the English language without really knowing it that well. I'd honestly go as far as to suggest that it's obviously not your first language. While I admit, I'm not perfect when it comes to grammar and the like, I would never make such a general statement as to say an entire language is ambiguous, simply due to a lack of understanding.

Besides deliberately trying to take what I said as an insult, I do not feel that you are an idiot, and did not mean to imply such. All statements I made were a generalization, except for where I called your statement ridiculous, which as far as I'm concerned does not imply that you are an idiot. Ambiguity lies in the writer/speaker, the listener/reader, and context. It's in what you know and how you know to use it, and when. This isn't an "agree to disagree," subject imo either, however, this is the last I'll say on the matter to simply allow the topic to get back on track.

The point of the damage cap?
Haseo Wrote:I've never really been sure of what the purpose of the damage cap has been since its inception. I know private servers use high damage as a means of catching hackers, but this is a cap so it's not really the same. I thought about it and decided it might be for balance issues, but however much the cap is right now is pretty imbalanced in itself. Unless I am getting things wrong.

What is the point of the damage cap exactly? It just seems to gimp single hit skill utility and do nothing past that.

Dear Haseo, watch the video above. That's why, son. That's why.

How does someone get paid for playing?

Sure there is.

.....Phantom provides buffs and Threaten. Demon Slayer has Demon Cry and Binding of Darkness, and Mercedes has Unicorn Spike and Spikes Royal to help our new goddess do even more damage.

You sell your sh`it for money rather than mesos/nx. Or sell characters as a service Rolleyes

when there's nothing for him to improve, he sells mesos/equips.
he also wrote the level up guide.

rumors are that his internet is a sponsored line from nexon, giving him PC Cafe benefits at home, but I seriously doubt that.

@The grammar debate on the first page: The only ambiguous thing about it would be the colon usage implying that the following person is the subject referred to in the subject of the sentence. Unless you're terrible at maintaining a conversation (referring to the person posting "This guy"), the natural flow of the discussion was as follows:

>video
>"This guy" also does this:

Not ambiguous. Though, yes, there are dangling participle and ambiguity problems in the English language. However, one must follow the natural flow of a conversation. If you do, there's not that much about which to be confused if you follow along, and the poster confirmed he was being, well, normal and in his right mind.

That is funny, yet so sad lol

As for what's been said here about the damage cap, It seems the damage cap wasn't a real meant to really limit damage, cap the money one should spend on this game. Why spending more than a set amount if anything beyond that wont make you any stronger?. Now with the cap gone, you can just keep spending until you go bankrupt.

As someone who quit MS in early 2010, this video is confusing as hell. So is the main attraction these days just flooding the screen with seas of 50 digit pink numbers and soloing every boss in the game?

...I remember when you actually needed a party to do stuff.

But it's so annoying to have noob weak players in your party. I mean, you didn't spend a shietload on cubes yourself just to be hindered by these annoying low life players. Maplestory evolves around you, not around a community of free-loaders who just want to play a nice game... pshhhh...

Sad but true...

Yep.

They introduced this thing called "Potential" (Bonuses that gear can give.) and "Miracle Cubes" (Reset a gear's Potential, giving you new bonuses.)

Potential gear you can get for free, but Miracle Cubes need to be bought from the Cash Shop.

The idea is you buy tons of these cubes until you get the bonuses you want. (Ones that increase your main stat by a percentage, bonus damage against bosses, defense ignore, crit chance, bonus HP, etc.)

However, the damage cap is at 999999. So they needed to find a new way to get people to buy more cubes..... (And perhaps blow some money on expensive class exclusive Cash Shop gear.)

Enter Angelic Burster.

My guildie also said that too, if the party members aint doing 1m per hit, there is no way they should be in the guild or in the party.
Just her point of view.

Wiped out the quote. Sorry about that @Rotosound

I was supporting you -_-; Go back and read it again.

My whole point was that you made a naturally flowing conversation and that Calmly was just looking to exploit a possible dangling participle that shouldn't be a problem.
