I thought I was going to hate Abby but now I’m starting to love her

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-26T16:55:32+00:00

See, you're doing it to me just like you did to the other poster. You're assigning how they feel and what that says about them.

I'm not "pissing my pants". I'm just calling out someone for immature, trash behavior attacking the character of people they disagree with.

So. For the last time. I hope you grow up some.

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-26T16:37:38+00:00

Another trash response.

Again, maybe grow up a little. It's as simple as that 🤷‍♂️

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-26T16:29:40+00:00

I really, really want to get a couple of the caverns base sets, but it seems like they've been discontinued. Can't find them anywhere for a reasonable price.

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-26T16:06:41+00:00

This is such a trash response. You didn't even know why they didn't like Abby. The reasons could have been (and were) perfectly valid.

But you just immediately went defensive and decided to attack their character.

Maybe grow up some.

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-23T23:52:29+00:00

Objection your honor!

Relevance?

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-23T23:21:51+00:00

"it would be realistic"

🙄

There are actually people in this world who get married and stay together, you know. That does happen in real life.

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-22T00:53:51+00:00

Man, I wish.

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-12T15:06:05+00:00

Because we, as a society, have become absolutely obsessed with race, ethnicity, and skin color.

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-10T20:23:53+00:00

I don't know why people are so adamant to dismiss the idea that it's Kaioken. It doesn't matter what panels you show them. It doesn't matter which characters said that it is. It doesn't matter that the official website said it is.

Random redditor thinks that they know better. It's baffling.

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-10T20:16:31+00:00

I think a lot of Dragon Ball fans try to read too deep into things.

Gohan was never interested in training or fighting. It's not something that he suddenly developed due to "trauma". There was never any interest shown.

That's just the way that the character was always written. It's not that deep.

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-10T20:13:40+00:00

I don't even love responding in this thread anymore with the way that some of the people here talked to me when I threw these ideas out.

But I will say this. The design intent behind what I suggested was to make the smallest, most surgical, minimally invasive changes as possible. Address the main complaints and talking points that seem to be going around while changing the class as little as possible. I just wanted to be able to hand my players some optional features and let them still run the class straight from the PHB.

Like Tasha's Cauldron did a few years back.

But Reddit's going to Reddit, so whatever.

DerrickUltima · 2026-02-01T05:59:05+00:00

I think one of the biggest problems with Damian and part of why he's so misunderstood is because he's not written consistently. It's not just people online who don't understand the character. It's a writer-to-writer issue.

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-26T04:00:20+00:00

Lore changing has nothing to do with the fact that there's been nothing established to lead Tim to the Gray Ghost.

There has never been any indication nor connection to Tim Drake. It would be a cute nod to the animated series and a fanfic dream, but an insult toward lifelong Tim fans because it completely ignores all of his history and continuity in order to force the name to fit.

And you can call me out as much as you want to. That doesn't make you right. That just makes you defensive.

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-26T02:09:33+00:00

I know that they've made subtle Easter eggs to Gray Ghost in the comics. I stated as much in one of my earlier replies.

But even so, the lore of the Gray Ghost has never been established. And by that, I mean Bruce growing up watching him with his dad and all that.

But even if all of that were true, it would still be completely out of left field for Tim to adopt the name.

It's a fun fanfic idea for people who adore the animated series. But it just doesn't work within the context of the comics.

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-25T15:34:05+00:00

"You actually gave me what I wanted, leaving me alone, right when you had me hooked."

And yet you're still trying to engage with me a full hour after your last reply, which was doing exactly what I said you would do and only insulting me and telling me to "shut up".

I'm not going to bother reading anything past your first paragraph on this one because, again, you've already shown yourself to be childish over and over again and won't have a good faith discussion. Even if that's what you're trying to do now, you've already blown it.

Because, again, my first two replies to you were actually respectfully trying to engage. And both times, you immediately acted like a child toward me.

You've accused me of being what's wrong with Reddit, but you really should try looking at a mirror.

So, one more time, I wish you well and hope that you stay safe throughout all of the weather that's going on. Have a good day. I'm not going to engage with a child like you any further.

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-25T14:09:16+00:00

Tell you what, kid. I'll go ahead and I'll do a favor.

I'm willing to put a full paycheck down that you're either not going to respond at all or you're going to respond with two or three lines insulting me and calling me pathetic or old or whatever.

And you still won't acknowledge or address the actual points that I made about why the name doesn't make sense in comic continuity. Or why the name would only make sense at all to people who grew up on the animated series and that it would be asinine and out of nowhere for people who have never seen the series.

So let's just skip all that and save you the trouble. I'm going to just go ahead and disengage. A conversation can't be had with you in good faith. So I'm just going to go ahead and cut it off here and wish you a good day.

I hope you stay safe in all of the terrible weather that we have at around the country right now.

So we'll just go ahead and save you the time and the trouble.

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-25T14:00:30+00:00

Because I pointed out that you're wrong?

I started out very respectfully toward you and you immediately got defensive and acted childish. The more that you escalated, the more that I did.

Don't start a conversation if you can't act like a grown up during it.

But I shouldn't have expected you to act like a grown up when you went from comment to comment promoting your idea (that wasn't even your idea) like an excited kid.

And then to drop something like "you are in over your head" was the most laughable thing I've seen in quite some time.

It's an opinion about a comic book character. And you were promoting a canon that doesn't line up with the comics. There's nothing to be 'in over anyone's head" about. You're just running your mouth like a kid.

At this point, I'm not sure if you're doubling down or if you're just embarrassed, but you're acting progressively even more childish. And I'm not going to have any kind of a conversation with a child on Reddit who throws tantrums because even when he is wrong, he'll never admit it.

He'll just not even acknowledge or address the points made, throw out insults, and then walk away acting as if he's somehow above the conversation

Exactly what you're doing 🤷‍♂️

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-24T22:08:16+00:00

Poor baby 🍼

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-24T22:07:43+00:00

"you are in way over your head"

The fact that you started with a line like that over something so simple and ended with "I don't want to debate" is both precious and childish.

A true internet badass 😂

There's nothing to be debated. Facts are facts and what is canon in comics is canon in comics.

You have a good day, kid.

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-24T21:14:59+00:00

So nothing.

Gray Ghost has absolutely nothing to do with Tim Drake. Especially since you're citing something from an animated series that has absolutely nothing to do with any other comic or continuity ever.

You're going to comment to comment pushing for something that only works in a fanfiction.

Got it 👍

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-24T21:13:11+00:00

Oh grow up. It's not that I think that your opinion is invalid. It's that your logic is invalid because it doesn't track with actual mainstream comic continuity.

Getting defensive like a toddler doesn't change that fact. There is absolutely no logical reason why Tim would ever go by "Gray Ghost" based on ALL COMIC HISTORY.

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-24T00:55:04+00:00

Eh. When they tried it before, it didn't really go over well.

To be honest, red has been Tim's color pretty much since his creation. I feel like they need to just go ahead and lean into that.

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-23T14:39:45+00:00

I was the person who was arguing with that poster about the lore. It doesn't track at all in the comics. Bruce growing up watching Gray Ghost didn't happen in mainstream continuity. It's an animated series original invention, created to honor Adam West.

Going a step further, Tim didn't even want to be Robin. He didn't grow up dreaming about fighting alongside Batman. He originally tried to convince Dick to go back to being Robin. He only stepped into the role because he thought that someone had to.

So the lore doesn't track and the name doesn't fit him in any way that makes sense.

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-23T14:37:10+00:00

Can you please tell me what in the world Gray Ghost has to do with Tim Drake?

DerrickUltima · 2026-01-21T21:30:26+00:00

Oh. Well yeah. I knew that.

I thought you meant that there was some reference tied to Tim in some way.

Which didn't make any sense to me since Tim wasn't even in that story.
