As long as I am paying for my subscription I'll get on the elevator with who I want when I want. And UMT they say birds of a feather flock together, reason being your skills or lack there of, are right there with the low laffers. Dont waste your time telling me how many toons you got, none of them are holly 50's so you havn't achieved the highest levels in the game on any of your toons. Im not interested in anything you have to say UMT.

If I see your son in the VP room with a cold caller 2 suit, I'll ditch him in the elevator because he don't belong there with 50 laff, thats a joke and an insult to all the other toons who payed their dues to be there.

I agree with the other post that states come back at 70 laff if you got some gags or be shuffled out. I don't discriminate due to age which we usually don't know anyway.

UMT dont bother to respond your points are worthless

I'm really sorry about that, I hope your son has better luck next time. That elevator prank is the oldest prank, yet it happens to everyone, and it happens to me. Next time they trap him to fight alone, he IMMEADIATELY has to Alt Tab and close the game to prevent any lost parts. Gosh, I feel so bad, I'd help him myself fight the vp if he really needs help, you can PM me to be his friend!

Wow, think you could be any more rude?

These kids aren't looking for high laffers to carry them on their shoulders. The lower laffers are willing to contribute to the battle along with everybody else. If you're really a Holly Level 50, you should have figured out LONG ago that you don't need eight 70+ toons to defeat the VP. And you're suggesting that UMT must have weak skills just because she understands this?!? What kind of backwards logic is that?? Maybe it's just the opposite: if someone insists on having eight 70+ toons every time, I'd say it's because his skills aren't up to par.

And yes, the kid does belong there. He earned his suit -- that's the price of admission. Deal with it.

I don't know where to start.... Can you honestly put UMT down? Credibility is 0 even at this early juncture. I would bet my 40 laffer's Hollywood suit that you were carried through a few times... or did you get to 50 Hollywood by soloing the VP and factory? You have the right to play the way you want, correct. UMT's point was that if you need all high laffers, then you have. no. skills. Make sure you understand this. If you need all high laffers with maxed gags, then you have no VP expertise, even if you have a 500 Hollywood suit.

Any 8 year old with lots of time can make it to 50 Hollywood. That big suit does not make anyone respect you. Try not to pull too many numbers out, because your authority isn't worth beans here. I don't care what level you are, and no one here whose respect is worth having cares either.

No that would be you. Is this called Toontown or Terrortown? Is this a safe kids game or a game where you intentionally make people cry? You're the insult - to the spirit of the game, you elitist.

It must be nice to be at the pinnacle of Toontown so that you can walk all over everyone else. Step back and remember that you're not a cog, hey?

You've earned a place on my "Avoid at all costs" list. Congrats! I so love your high and mighty attitude!

Go get 'em, UMT!


I'm usually very laid back - anyone who reads my posts here knows that. But it really ticks me off when some heartless cog says tough luck to a innocent crying kid. Hey my first modded post!

LoonyToony, tell your son to head to CCG. If the CCG can put out half a dozen sub-50 laff Hollywoods, then they can surely show your son the ropes! You won't have to deal with jerks, trust me.

I'd like to make a few points:

1) Alot of the time there are several low laughers that want to go in at the same time. This isnt a very good idea because if you have several toons with low gags and low LP its makes it incredibly difficult to just stay alive, let alone destroy the cogs.

2) When you take a low laugher with you they go down really quickly, which means you have to toon them up ever turn. If you have to do that, you have people not focusing on the danger at hand. I dont mind a low laugher with me, as long as there is only one, maybe two. If there is only one with you it doesnt divert to much attention when tooning one toon up every turn. But when you have more, it gets dangerous. And you definatly dont want them dieing because they can get some pies in to help. It really depends on the toon. If they are ~65 there isnt really any problem taking two. (but you have to hope they dont get stuck together on the same side. That would be not very good)

3) The maximum amount of damage that can be dealt in one consecutive attack is 96 points (4 11's with that shift attack (24 x 4)). Ive had that happen to me twice. One time I died and the other time I made it because I wasnt nearly as down. And both times it was because lure missed. And lure always misses atleast once. It seems to missing alot more than usual for some reason (3 lvl 6 maxed lure missed in a row).

4) When someone hops off the elevader (for what ever reason, not just becuase of low laughers) other people hop off too just because they dont want to be shorted people, let alone get stuck on the elevader by themself when everone else hops off.

5) If you get stuck on the elevader because someone hoped off you can hit Alt-F4 to log off toon town. You will have all your parts and you can go back in. You just have to do it before you get off the elevader (or is it after he smashes it off you?)

Suggestion:

When you walk into the lobby scan all the toons and make sure there are no other low laughers. There is a big chance they will let you go along. This is true especialy when there are only 7 toons waiting.

Other Comments:

Yes I agree there are alot of mean toons out there, and there are becoming more and more. I think there is one cause for this: People being mean to other toons. Yes, I think being mean to toons indirectly causes others to be mean. How? When a low toon encounters this kinda of treatment they arnt happy about it. When they work their way up to a high laugher they start adopting the same behavior. They may see the way other high toons act as the "acceptable way".

EDIT: They seriosly need to enhance the way they seperate toons for a VP battle. Currently its random, and thats not very good. If it wasnt random I would take 2 low laughers no problem. Problem is they dont split up evently all the time. Takes luck. I'll take one no problem

Loony Toon whats your son's toons name I will be more glad than a glad handler to help him! I'm 105 laff and I'll take helping lower laffers in the VP. If I know the low laffer will work with me, I'll go in anyday and help him out! Tell him if he see's a red duck named Kirby he will lend him a hand if he's shunned by others in the lobby!

anymore after a succesful run with me! Your son won't be so sad He'll be a confident pro in no time. And we'll beat up all those mean toons (somehow)

Yeah Im going to have to agree with you there. I would rather loose the VP then make a little kid cry.

I can assure you that this won't happen if you're using good strategy. If you sound blast the cogs, then this will happen often (esp. with how "off" lure seems to be right now).

Lure left, Kill right. You'll rarely lose any laff this way. I should know!

As a note, I've been a number of times with 4 low and 4 high laffers, and won handily. Only 2 of these low were super lows, too.

The main problem is bad gag choice, to be honest. I know a few times I've gotten into trouble with my big bunny because some low laffer tooted his horn on a row of lured 12s. This is when it becomes tough to go with low laffers. I know this, ok? The thing is, I've seen more incorrect sound use with high laffers than with low! Thing is, the high laffers can take the blows.

As much as I love taking low laffers through the VP, when you make a choice that almost kills the team... I have to let you go. First mistake, I'll try my best to keep you alive. Second, I won't go out of my way to toon you up, but I won't avoid it. Third - sorry pal, it's either you or all of us. Note that these mistakes are ones where we tell you "No" "No!!!!" or something similar.

I give it my best, and have died trying to save the little guy - more than a few times, actually. But that's ok. I'd rather try and die than be a stuck up jerk. The times where I'm able to keep you going all the way through are rewarding to me, so I will keep doing it.

Plus I've taken my 40 laffer through dozens of times... so I know what I'm talking about!

I DO think that this post was a little rude but I agree
on a couple of points such as we worked hard to get there.
Oh quit it. Everyone has to get merits - you only have to get 5500 because you choose to do it. Tons of people get the 5500 and go out of the way to take the little ones. 5500 doesn't give you a special elevator with your name on it, bud. We've all worked hard to get there, so you're nothing special. I don't like high suits clogging the elevator, so there!

Anyways you don't lose merits if you die.

Hey guess what, I got the full unedited version of your post...

What I think should happen is if you reach lvl 50 mr holly wood you shouldnt have to get merits even when you win. Level 50 is crazy, and if youve worked that hard you shouldnt need merits. And it doesnt make much sense to have to get merits when you cant go past lvl 50. Just what are you geting a promotion for? If that were to happen I think those big Mr. Hollywoods would be more likely to help out some toon

EDIT: I know I dont fret when I loose a vp since I only need 100-800 merits... Couple of factory runs and im done "woo hoo". The only time I get upset is when we're rescusing a 5 star sos. Those are hard to come by...

Yes, but if you go in with a random group, you are expecting that 100 laff points = skilled. I gave my 5 year old one of my 100+ laffers. He knows a few things, but I can guarantee he's not THAT skilled. If you don't want to go in with a random group, ask your friends to join you and go to a less crowded district. Even if you have ONE friend to go with you, take a couple of lower laffers. Then you can decide if they want you to carry them through or they are willing to play. If they are wanting a free ride, leave 'em. If they are good, you'll never know until you give them the chance.

And if they go down in laff points really quickly....so? If it comes to tooning constantly or fighting the cogs, that's a decision you have to make. Sometimes it's a good decision, sometimes it doesn't work out. That's the choice they decided to make. Even when someone yells "I need a toon up!", they can take a few hit points & be ok. So when that happens, say "Wait a minute!" and do what you have to do and when you get the chance, toon up. But they are required to be there in the factory at least from about 43 laff points & up. They are given tasks regularly to go in & these tasks they are required to take sometimes. I've been in the VP with Master SwampJedi, a 40 laffer (MK_Superknees above) and I'd much rather take him than a random toon. But I wouldn't have known what a good player he is if I didn't give him the chance.

If a lure misses there is nothing you, I, Flippy, Fluffy, Lil Oldman or Mickey Mouse himself can do. LOL. If they go sad, yes it's heartbreaking, but ya know what? When they jumped in that elevator with you, they took that chance that a lure might miss. On the other hand, you or anyone else can do what they need to do to get through it as good as you can. If you did your best, then just have fun with it & try to save who you can.

Yes, this is very true. People get scared that at the last minute someone will jump off. But that's the wonderful thing about Alt + F4. Even if you get stuck on the elevator with less than half people on board, push Alt + F4 as soon as you realize it. You can contribute to the problem or try to make it better and if everyone stopped and told themselves "No matter what, I'm not going to jump off!" then I can see the problems lessening at least. You have control over one person: yourself.

Exactly my point. See? You get it now!

Sorry to disagree, but even with half of them low laffers, you can do it with one thing: skill. Yes, there's luck but that's out of your control. Do what you can with what you have.

I'm not picking on you. There's another post in this thread for that purpose...hehehe. Reminds me, gotta clean up some stuff on this thread. But I did want to give something to think about.
