    Weight Loss Thread

    Now that I'm not actively trying to lose a large amount of weight (I'm 195, I'd like to be 180, but I'm also fairly content at this weight compared to when I hit 240) That's basically all I do.

I don't follow the program, but I have it at my girlfriend's house because it is an easy way for me to get her to exercise, because she won't do it on her own, and doesn't go to...

    Ummm... How is playing a tank class in a group with a healer keeping you alive more risky than playing a pet class that specializes in tanking. If the healer lets the tank die, in either situation, the group wipes. If you are not using active tools to help keep your pet alive, then that is...

    That actual in-game census makes me feel a lot better about gilgamesh than I was previously based on reddit poll results. I'm still leery about it. If it's not playable for me (any queue greater than an hour if other servers have none at launch assuming they open the floodgates of open...

    Here... I'll just rip quotes from the paid IGN endorsement. So you get all of the downsides of an MMO, and none of the upsides (socialization / group oriented play) Action combat is great in a single player game, I absolutely love Dark Souls... except it makes for a shitty MMO... See: TERA read...

    If Gilgamesh has literally 2x the population of the next most populous server, like on that graph, there will be no way of mitigating massive queues and lag that will mar the playability of this game, it's inevitable. I mean I'd love to play with RR'ed people, since I have been here or foh...

    Every 4 man groups requires a tank, every 8 man group will want 2 tanks, I wouldn't worry about rolling a tank. Most tanks aren't hardcore enough to keep up the pace with their friends (killing mobs at 70% speed of a dps class isn't conducive to solo leveling unless you're more hardcore). Every...

    And then cancelling their subscriptions 5 months later when the entire dev team is canned. But I guess it doesn't matter to the shills at that point, they earned their money... I want to be playing a community social MMO for years, not a couple months, check out the DLC... Errr I mean patch...

    Leviathan seems like a pretty good compromise for me.

I'd rather play where people know all of the guilds...

    Don't really see what advantage a maxed out mastering team has over any viable tanky team maxed out (double gab, double raph, double Michael, double Lucifer, double astaroth) ...

    Blizzard level animations p.s. Final Fantasy 14 has pretty good animations from what I've seen too. The only problem I (or I think anyone) has with it is the attack animations don't blend with the movement animations, so if you move while attacking, your character slides across the ground...

    Larger Health Pool and On demand Healing was the mechanic that deathknights used to become the preferred tanks during WoW Cataclysm. It's all just a numbers game and individual encounters matter. There is no reason to doubt that they'll be viable... at the very least you'll have an easier time...

    I was a virgin until I was 26, slept with over 30 women between 26 and 30. They are only a scarce resource as long as you are low value to them. As their values go down, and your values go up... you can figuratively swim in a sea of pussy.

    Funny thing about the responsiveness issues/AOE... That was actually an issue in early WoW as well. Used to be spells cast from the center of your circle to the edge of theirs... Which is fine until two players have vastly different sized circles, ala gnomes and Tauren.

    The nice idea wow had is that nighttime was actually at night, if you saw the sunrise in WOW, you know you'd been playing too long. EQs 2 hour cycle had you notice it more, but Yea, it didn't help that WoW didn't actually "change" between day and night, certainly nothing like kithicor

    As long as players can earn a Sullon Zek like reputation (1 character per account), then it doesn't matter. Safe zones also helped ruin the reputation thing... The worst thing in the world is getting a force to invade the other faction in WoW only not be able to touch the other players...

    in my opinion, it is worth making the box space to save up Drops (light heartbreaker), Poporing (green heartbreaker), and Marin (Blue Heartbreaker). We JUST had the green and blue heartbreaker dungeon, so probably won't see it again for a few months, but it is a guaranteed drop, and 1 of the...

    Well, as an example, at Hera-is, I needed to do a 3 heaet orb plus 1 other combo after every normal round, or 5+ hearts in about 4 combos after every special attack (about 66% of the time). If I ran out of heart orbs on any turn, I was pretty much guaranteed to die. In such a situation, my golem...

    P.S. I used my mono red to tackle 2 heroes, burned about 5 stones (net -4) between 3 runs, Freyr/area just seemed as good or better than mono dark for me, since A) the goal is to burn down green, and b) survival against solo blue wasn't hard. 1 stone at masks, 3 at vamps.

    Honestly, they just need to nerf the one outlier in this case, 300x atk is just too damned high compared to all the other 50x nukes available. Yes, I know Japan also has access to the 300x water nuke also, but that seems just as ridiculously overpowered compared to other team comps ... Anyways...
