Leadership is a special kind of sauce. If you lack that certain Je ne sais quoi, then will have a dry dish that no one will want.
my rage idiots in guilds that act like that are all that, when they clearly are idiots.

Akirash canters slightly to the side of you and leans over to grab you with both hands as his mount
continues to move, using his momentum and supernatural strength to fling you into the air.
Akirash uses Corpus Fling Slam on you.
Your ascent is abruptly stopped by way of your body slamming into the ceiling, and you fall back
down to land face-first on the ground.

"If it makes you feel better, just checking your artifact list threatens to crash my mudlet."
You'd be surprised at what disrupt stops and doesn't stop.
Fear only works if they can leave. Same as agoraphobia, which also has other restrictions.
Running is not and should not ever be a valid option to stop a skill Mr. Hadoryu Jr.
Do berserk procs interrupt channels?
Also, I'm not against adding a defense against it, just not mass. Something that is stopped the moment you start a channeled skill, sure. It makes sense that if you do something as dumb as start a channeled skill while I am unhindered that I should be able to easily and immediately stop it.
But you have one skill that stops it. Paralysis. You're wanting some more surefire way that doesn't require you to work harder? All I have is paralysis or transfix. The thing is, the Judge you refer to isn't even possible anymore because healing rite is gone and care doesn't stack with purity. Be smarter about how you apply your single paralysis and you'll be fine. Mass is a good counter to this, IMO. Forced movement with no defense is never a good thing.
Also, Judge\Cleave\Behead\et al isn't '2 steps to stop your one'. There are multiple checks on these skills. It's not a one shot deal to stop it. Judge has -3- chances to stop it. Behead and the others have 2 I believe.

"If it makes you feel better, just checking your artifact list threatens to crash my mudlet."
It's not even a thing in 1v1 combat, so just set it up so that the Gravity fortification stops getting tossed into the air.
There's a bunch of crazy team things you can do. I don't think this is worth a "we need to balance this" conversation, honestly.
AS A JOKING ASIDE:
I don't see anyone complaining about Leapslash spam at a certain lesser that happened earlier this week, either.
Amirite, Mr. U. R. "Death from Above" @Benedicto? <.<

Also, like I said, paralysis can be picked up by purity.
Dude, I think you misunderstand...
Flinged with mass
Mass Strips
Mass has to be applied again.
It's an in room salve knock you can give someone, that when teaming, especially with a Teradrim, means mass will end up down.

"If it makes you feel better, just checking your artifact list threatens to crash my mudlet."
Using Fling to stop an insta requires you be unhindered, mounted, et al. If someone's unhindered, and you're still beheading, you have either balls or poor timing. You also give up a venom and a dwhisper in using it to stop an insta. I personally don't even bother with it. Randomly nerfing something like that seems more like nerfing something at random than actually balancing something that needs balanced - just because one person did it successfully one time at a lesser. As I've said in previous posts (and this post may result in a Separate Thread, sorry dudes) I think we have the Nerf Bat(tm) way too readily at hand, and are prone to attempting use of the Nerf Bat to solve issues as opposed to thorough intellectual effort.
I can never tell if these are like serious "we should do this" conversations or just mild speculation, so forgive me if this is the latter. It rings of knee-jerk conversation to me.

My issue is the balance knock on the skill, especially if done indoors multiple people can do it to you and the balance knocks stack, which means that a well timed group of flingers can throw you off balance for a very long time if they wanted to. Take out the balance knock and I've no issue with the skill - OR- put a cooldown on it so they can't be stacked -OR- just make it respect mass. That's my opinion. Draiman, again, Judge\Behead, at all give you MULTIPLE attempts to stop them. Multiple. And Care\Purity won't fire more than once, at MOST, during a single judge\behead. When someone starts to judge me, I don't even change my offense because paralysis is so high on my aff priority list that it'll get them before they get me if they're actually doing it in the clear. If I'm messed up, well, then I deserve the death.
Edited to add:
(The Quorum): Cole says, "It's not the balance thing that's so dangerous, Daskalos. It's that if you can't fly, you can't do anything other than wait to fall again. And if you fall back down, they can fling you right back up. 1 person kept Dwodin/Jami/me in the air for the entire lesser. Then they tentacled Jami back down, killed her while Dwodin and I were still being flung up, and then killed me while still flinging Dwodin."

You're arguing you need it as is so you can stop instants, but if that's what the skill was designed for, I don't think the above was in the design. With the nerfs to passive healing that have gone on over the last few years, I don't see how this is still needed.

"If it makes you feel better, just checking your artifact list threatens to crash my mudlet."
Templars could probably spam Cleave with their aff cure aura, a purity necklace, and web boots to the same effect Dourif did it when he was Paladin. No, not as likely as The Dourif Judge (c) when it was originated, but the cleave still worked often enough.
