32,768 is the biggest number you can store in a signed 16-bit integer. Not sure what made them go for 16 bits there, that seems pretty stingy even for 1999.

Count me in the former group. Instances are the way to go for raiding. The alternative is competing with the biggest poopsockers on the server for every spawn, or raiding every few weeks in a rotation. The TLPs have a decent balance I think, you have your weekly DZ, and on top of that there are...

Seems like an obvious way to catch cheaters then, but I guess botter $ spends just as well as any other.

Missed out on Kunark and Velious, just got back on Aradune on my cleric. Now that it's 60, I want to roll up an alt to box, so I can farm some shit by myself, and occasionally box it in a group. What would be a good class to do this? If it was launch I would probably go for enchanter because of...

Was wondering the same thing after getting my CLR to 50. Enchanter is very powerful, but having to deal with charm breaks all the time gets tedious fast. Necro would allow me to be semi-afk most of the time. Not sure yet.

I'm just wondering just what kind of dog shit they're running this server on. Can't they ask around the office if someone has an old pentium III they could upgrade to?

I've cancelled my accounts. If it doesn't get better before the sub runs out, they'll stay cancelled.

Started my enchanter to possibly box with my cleric. I thought it would be rough going till I got to charm, but this class is just OP straight out of the gate. The level 2 pet is level 5, and the next few ones are also a few levels above the level you get them. Just silly.

I just timed it, zoning takes 3 minutes and 10 seconds right now. Absolutely retarded. If this doesn't get better quick I guess I'll add to the solution by letting my account lapse.

Why even bother ninjalooting. With 20 picks of Lguk running the game is shitting out so much gear, everything but the best shit can be had for cheap.

I found this out to my detriment. I'm now a cleric with 60 strength. Bronze will be fun.

So how does this queue work: I get the message, click OK. 1) Do I get logged into the character select automatically at this point? 2) If I manually try to log in again, do I get booted to the back of the queue?

No queue in the European morning, which is nice. I suppose the flipside of that coin is there'll be at most 2 guilds raiding in EU times.

Already greatly enjoying mage pets just sitting there until the mob is almost dead. If you find yourself in a group with active non-AFK players, never leave.

I got to level 5 and decided I'd rather be a dark elf after all.
