YES! I did it, folks. I squeezed it all into two posts. INCREDIBLE:

Then why are you using the evil aura now? O_o
Dark and mod auras look best with that level 45 scythe. Very very nice.

I personally am a tad disappointed with the new B/P ranks. Anyone else feel this way?
Absolutely! The new levels are cool (although they'll take some getting used to, naturally), but the ranks? Disappointing, yes.
I'm sure it's been said enough in the past month or so already, and indeed I've said it (in other topics), but... I don't feel I can pass up even just one more chance to say in agreement to that statement:
Me three thousand!

I think 46 is the best new level aswell, also I must say that level 51 is fucking ridicoulous, looks no way good enough to be that high, looks like it'd fit more between 20 - 30, it's just a normal-looking sword?
What? Level 51 isn't some "normal-looking sword," it's the freakin' Master Sword from the Legend of Zelda series of game. LINK ring a bell to you?
The only thing wrong with it, or any of the other sword levels, IMO, is that too many of them have the blade down instead of up. I think the katana and the... mini-katana, since I can't remember the actual name for the seppuku blade.... curving down and to the side works okay since that's how they'd look when being drawn from the sheath, but... for both the 42 and 51 swords to be pointed downwards is... bleh. At least the 55 sword is held upright.

I was quite dissapointed with those too, aswell as with the new designs of the metal gauntlets they looked SO much better before. I also miss level weapons from the levels old levels of 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 28 and 29 they were pretty much abadonned.
No they weren't.... 21 and 22 are still in the new levels, 24 and 25 pretty much are as well. More on that in a sec:

19 and 26 always eluded me in the sense that I was never quite sure what they actually were.
Flails.
21 and 22 were awesome axes, but they have been replaced by the orgasm of a level icon that is the level 46 axe, so that makes it slightly better.
That, and also 37 and 38 in the new system are pretty much exactly 21 and 22. Same types of axe, at least, if not the exact same looks...
23 I never really liked. It just looked too fragile to be level 23 out of 30.
Hear hear. 23 bites, I'm glad they didn't make a "new 23" level.
24 was a nice little sword, but there are 4 or 5 swords in the new system. I reckon the level 42 and 51 swords should be switched though.
Well, the 42 sword is very badass, yes, but 42 is a badass number. I'm really looking forward to hitting 42 by the end of 2007, in fact. I wouldn't mind waiting until 50+ for it, either. As I just went over a bit up in this post, there's nothing wrong with 51 except it's pointing down.
I think the actual "level 24 sword" of the new system is the level 55 sword, though.
25 was just amazing. I guess 47 has replaced it, but it looks nowhere near as cool.
Yep, there you go. 47 = old 25, and yes, it's nowhere near as good as 25, unfortunately.
28 was the sweet golden axe, I believe? But again, axes aplenty.
More than enough axes of every variety, yes, including a freakin' Indian axe (36), a bone axe/cleaver (40), maybe another one I don't see while glancing at the list.. All of those + the 37/38 axes and 46, AND the golden 53 axe, too. SO MANY. I hope the axe fans are happy, but I'm more of a sword fan. There's less swords (AGAIN), but still way more than in the 30 level system, so I happy, too.
29 was ok. No real opinion on it.
It was just a beefed-up 23. And since it was the best icon anyone but Pimp/HT could ever have... in a way, it was worse than 23. At least 23 you could get through in a year or two. 29... you'd have... FOR LIFE. Just ask Shrapnel.

Yeah that's what tom said. Scaling's a thing of the past. Course that leaves us to wonder what 38640-??? means, but it could be anything at this point. I truly hope level 60 won't scale. 3964 days is enough for anyone to deserve level 60.
Personally, I think "???" means either "infinite" (in the sense of "unlimited") or "we may introduce new levels in the future if too many people actually reach level 60, but we're not gonna worry about that just yet".
??? should mean, IMO... that we don't know what the level 60's exp amount will be once there IS a level 60 (i.e. how high they'll get, whether they'll keep going forever or retire on some ungodly number like 100,000, etc. etc.... or, well, seeing as how all those high exp folks have -6 ending exp, I guess it'd be 100,006).
After all, if they were trying to show the ??? = scaling, the 38640 should be the ???, not the UPPER end of the level's exp range. #;-}>
But yes, as schnee said, it could be taken to mean they may tack on even more levels, yeah. But 60's enough, I don't really think it's necessary. We've gone from 30 to 60 (and aside from me loving the number 36).... what more could be gained without going way over the top? What'd be next? 100? Too many.

level 27 is mine. thought the old level 16 icon looked far better then this pair does.
I still think it's one of the better looking icons to come out of the redesign. Plus, the level 27 chuks look better than the original level 16 ones with the red aura.
Level 27 new is not QUITE as good as level 16 old, no, but they're still black-handled metal nunchaku, and as a result they still rock.
I wouldn't care how either pair look with the red aura, though. #;-}>

he'll be doing one last update when he reaches 10,000 Posts and gets himself on the 4x10k list.
Sooner than I once thought, but not soon enough for most.

To be honest, the ones you were listening to might be really great songs, I don't know too many Judas Priest songs. My sister probably knows more, she saw them live in Philly back in the 90s. Yar.

You do realise that that was paraphrased from the Simpsons, right? In "Cape Feare", the parole board makes a similar comment concerning Sideshow Bob ("No one who speaks German could be an evil man"). :) Look it up, or - better yet - watch it. :)
But that would... (gasp)... involve him NOT watching Futurama instead.
Can you believe that, guys? Simpsons-watching instead of Futurama? THE THOUGHT OF IT.
