Post Player actor/device mods?
I have been flooded with CC ideas for modding, guns, bombs, devices, etc., and I have tried understanding Lua, and stuff, but I think it will take a bit (a lot) more time for me to make anything above horrifyingly horrible. Anyway, one of my ideas was like, to make a device or/and actor for each player, as like a tribute. For example (Note: These names are just the ones I have been able to remember, because my short term memory is bleh):
ProjektTHOR: Thor combat suit? Giant hammer?
Numgun: Numb gun? Taser-like thing?
Who else... uhm... me?
Repulsion: Super repulsor thingamachig?

Whatever, tell me what you think.

There's a kernel of an interesting idea deep in there, but it would make more sense for a forum denizen to produce an in-game body/tool/object for himself.
But why would you want this, save being particularly egotistical? Would you even want yourself represented as a mind-slave of everyone else?

The other obvious question is of how personality is displayed on a forum. Very few users are very familiar with anyone but the old hands, the moderating "staff," or in this case the modding lords standing on pedestals of praise.

Yes it would make sense for each forum member to post an actor they have made of themselves in a thread called something like: Yourself actors mod posts.

Some of the most recognized members of this forum soiciety:

ProjektTHOR
Darlos9D
DSMK2
Duh102
capnbubs
Data
The Last Banana [TLB]
Scancode
Grif [and most feared]
Ropeface
The Decaying Soldat
Whitty
Shook
MaximDude
Hyperkultura
LordTim
AlenthEneil
CrazyMLC
Areku
The Fat SandRat
Numgun [also horribly whiny recently.]
Zalo
Serapth
p3lb0x

Forgive me if I missed someone.

I was also going to write myself, but... i probably would get flamed.

Why do I never make it onto those things?
Also I kinda like this idea, someone did it a while back, but it would be nice to see a more complete one.

By your avatar, you're nearly there already, Geti.
I still do not see why anyone would want to actually make this though. I can almost fathom playing as a representation of myself, but not so much as caring to use someone else's likening.

Unless they were pretty damn baddass, which would make the creator either vain or a suck-up.

Now I'm insulted. Is there any way to have my name changed? Because I honestly am starting to regret naming myself this, and thought of a much better name last night.
