Hey, I had fun just goofing off with you guys :)
Trendon - Try to right click on the picture and do copy and then paste the picture into Google Docs. It works for almost all of the PDF's I use from Paizo. For the ones that it doesn't, I use an online PDF image extractor to pull out the images and then drag them into the google doc. Then do the same thing for the avatar pictures here. Right click copy and paste in GD and resizes. Cake!
I've run this scenario before and could do it for you guys, but man, my plate is already overfull right now.

Pass the lead to me when you get a chance? I will try to be quicker, and still havent fully gotten maps figured out but worse comes to worse I can always take a picture and email myself the map All i need from Rysky is a charector then. Cause there is no need for guilt at all but someone will loosely have to replace me, DM PC's can be a bit of a bore and of course Trendon will always be there in the background to provide Aid for you folk... especially you sexy sexy folk :P

If you want a good melee character look at knifemaster rogue. I built one that got pretty brutal. d8's for sneak attack, basically every attack being a sneak attack by quickdrawing concealed weapons, a few timed per day MAXIMIZED Sneak Attack.

That would actually dovetail nicely with my raging song. Honestly, with a bard and a skald, anything melee will get a huge shot in the arm. If there was a str based melee class you always wanted to try but worried about to-hit or damage (something dual weilding maybe), this would be the time.

I just like playing two-handers I guess, it's what I always play in video games as well.
Looking at my other characters that I've actually played on PbPs I've got
4 Barbarians
3 Rangers*
2 Bloodragers*
2 Warders
1 Fighter (don't care for them either)
1 Inquisitor (really didn't care for that)
1 Spiritualist (the Phantom is fun but overall I don't care for actually playing the class)
*Wednesday is mutliclassed.
As much as I like the Vigilante I'm playing one in my live game and that's not working out that well, I can't come up with a social identity, and I'm too stupid to remember their abilities.

Pit born tiefling variant with wings make a very nice looking succubus/incubus appearance if that's what you're after.

It's funny that you say that, I've been telling myself the next character I create would be a straight fighter just to see what I could do with it.

Fighters are good at their namesake, they're just milquetoast.
Until you get higher levels to get the Advanced Armor and Weapon Training abilities and feats like Cut from the Air and Smash from the Air. Even then though they're just kinda meh.
The 2 skill points also doesn't help matters.

The class it self makes you good at combat. That's it. In a way a fighter is advanced RP, because it's in the description of how they fight that a fighter can be made amazing.
Most of the feats you'd take early on give solid mechanical benefits but lack the "sexy" descriptions of other classes features.
Combat Expertise: You can increase your defense at the expense of your accuracy. –1 penalty on melee attack rolls and combat maneuver checks to gain a +1 dodge bonus to your Armor Class.
Yup Boring.
His eyes narrow as he notes his opponent's skill with a blade, this one bore paying attention to. Fluidly slipping into an easier more relaxed stance, his hands begin to move, blade weaving in an out, weight shifting constantly in a defensive dance. A true master knew that a blade could be just as good a defense as a weapon.
Using Combat Expertise to -2 from attacks to boost AC
Same feat made sexy.

I have a phalanx fighter that I've had a blast with. But I'll admit that is not from a strictly mechanical standpoint. Is been mostly from the group's RP
I agree Gideon. I believe all of the classes can be fun if you put the story and RP into it. I play a vanilla fighter (just so I could try it out) and I'm loving the character but that is mostly due to the group I play with and the RP that has evolved out of it.

Yeah if you do that it can be. My RL group would get annoyed if you spent time flavoring your actions like that so I never bothered.
That and I guess I'm just not fond of the fighter (training, learned), vs the Barbarian (instinct, innate) kinda. I workout in RL. Or I used to. I mostly just run lately. A character built around training doesn't interest me.

Sorry if you had been waiting on me, I was kinda hoping you'd all move on though.
I guess to move things along would you allow the Consumed Vigilante archetype from the Legendary Vigilante playtest?
