You manage to type at all in battle? o.O
It takes me too long to switch gears between talking and fighting for me to do that. (Mind you, sometimes I'll start talking during a fight on Eri, but that's a) soloing, and b) on a regen scrapper, so she'll probably have more health after I'm done talking than when I started.)
When I'd party in FFXI I'd almost never talk at all, because unless things have gone wrong you're usually fighting, running, or getting ready to do one of those all the time, and I needed my hands on the controls ready to do things at any moment. '.'

I fear Inari/Ogami/Nogi are out of contention for tonight. I'm working until 10 eastern... I'd show up just as you pumpkin.

I should be more about now. Off the satellite, and back to my DSL. So I could probably be there at 7 and after 10. ![[Image: smalldarksideoc5.png]](http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/5599/smalldarksideoc5.png)

Well, yeah, I'm a fairly nimble typist. Most of the time. But when I go fumblefingers it tends to be drastic, and slows me down to hunt-and-peck speeds.

It depends on the character I'm playing, personally - and more importantly, whether the team can spare my attention for a moment. If I, or someone else, am damn close to dying if stuff isn't done RIGHT NOW, then I ain't gonna take the time to type.
But if the battle's proceeding well...then sure, what the hell. Especially if I'm on a debuff character. If I've already smashed all my big debuffs on the bad guys, I got a window of opportunity to chat. 'cause even if i continue to attack then, it's not like it'd make a huge difference anyway. My major contribution's already been made.
On a Blaster, I might take the time to chat immediately after dropping my nuke. 'cause even if I pop a blue inspiration or two, I don't have much endurance to do much anyway.
Even outside those specific cases, I still type chat stuff, be it random comments or RP - mid-fight. Since generally there will be moments when I find all my situation-relevant powers have been used, and there's gonna be at least a second or two before stuff recharges.
Admittedly, I type fast.

OK, not a ninja night, more DHH - maybe the Twins should make a run. Folks around level 9-10?--

As will I. Maybe a side trip to kill the Winter Lord?

Well, K-chan's now level 10 due to some playing after the BNY evening, so if my schedule works out... when was it again? (he asked, unable to scroll up because he opened a reply in the same window he used to view the thread)
ETA: (scrolls up after posting reply) Um. Tonight? Not likely, given I'm posting this 30 mins too late...

Well. That was certainly interesting last night. We got ourselves a Winter Lord, which climbed up the side of a building, King Kong-style, and eventually kicked our little red and black butts.
Can't say it wasn't an exciting night, though.
