I know you're being snide but she was actually. Always did a great job of hosting and making sure everyone had a good time. I felt ashamed after the Blizzcon party I went to because I was so tired and hungover the next morning I forgot to help clean up. Fuck, that reminds me. Sutekh can...

Since I'm on a nostalgic kick, you know what I miss? I miss the fucking websites from '99 and '00. Here's a post by Abashi (You remember him right?) back in 2000 telling casual players to stop fucking whining about how long it takes to form groups...

The thing I miss most from the VG beta was the forums. It didn't matter what the discussion was or what you were pointing out. Once you got labeled as a 'faggot WoW fanboy' it was over. Pointed out a bug at one point that let you level from 3 to 20 in about 10 minutes and had a couple people...

Lori did plenty of nice things. Her charity work with dogs was no sham. She was always a very gracious host with whoever came to visit. She put a lot of effort into the guild in EQ and WoW. On a more personal level she came to my defense many times (ousting Millie after Millie tried to ban me...

You do realize if you work for family pretty much all DOL rules go out the window, right?

This is where we talk about jimmies being rustled right?

it's sad when Aychs fake life is less interesting than Sutekhs real one.

One of our favorite places to eat is the Turkish Star. It's about a 5 minute walk from where I live. When we show up, our favorite server Manaj will help me take the stroller out of the back of my car for my kid. He then gets us two cokes and some bread and hummus for our son. We sit, he...

Thanks guys. +1's all around.

Don't forget to check resellers and shit on Ebay as well. Granted this was for our actual wedding rings but we went to a variety of jewelers, picked out the rings we wanted and then she went on an ebay hunt. Managed to get the ring I wanted for 25 bucks (jeweler wanted 350) and hers for 950...

I don't know about you guys but I'm still waiting for my destiny collector card for liking reckoning on facebook.

The middle east is a non-tipping culture as well. You show up, they take your order. If you need anything you raise your hand or make eye contact and nod and they're at your side in a second ready to work. The nice thing about it is there's no such thing as 'sections' so every server is there...

All my internet history did was give the wife ideas. Though she still teases me to this day about some of the shit in there. I say all in all a net positive experience. Said about what?

So need a good recommendation for online filing since getting the paperwork to file here requires a 4 hour drive and fuck that noise. Anybody have a site they've been using regularly and feel is reliable? Preferably one that does both federal and state taxes.

The only redeeming factor of DA2 is it has the only, as far as I can recall that is, actual moral choice quandary I've ever come across in a bioware game and you don't know you've done it until long after you made the choice. Sean knows what I'm talking about as he was fucking devastated when...

Kinda what I was afraid of. I want a bigger tablet for reading/browsing but a smaller one seems more practical for phone/picture taking when I'm out and about. Goddamnit. Thanks guys. +1's

The only redeeming quality for EQ2 at release was that quest items didn't take up inventory space.

My cellphone has started to develop liver spots. Been looking at tablets but my wife insists on me just getting a new phone. I'd like a 7 inch tablet for the amount of reading/browsing I do. I know there are a few 7 inch tablets with cell phone connectivity as an option. Anybody have any...

One thing that's also nice in a non-tipping society is you never run into that fucked up situation where you're sitting next to a table of like 12 and you get mediocre service all night because the server is working the 100 dollar tip instead of your 3 dollar tip. They're getting paid just the...

I've yet to meet a server who accurately reports tips. Granted this is anecdotal but every server I've ever known reports just enough to stay above minimum wage and to not get caught they just bite the bullet and report the same amount if they don't pull in enough for some reason that week.

It's like some of you don't realize that there are restaurants outside of America. I've had nothing but amazing service, fantastic food and the price is still very affordable. The servers don't resent me because I expect them to do cartwheels to make minimum wage off my generosity. They're...

If I start posting about begging her for pity sex, let me know and i'll put myself out of my misery.

Community argument in it's varied forms and what to 'do about it' comes up more often then pictures of Jaits mom on /r/gonewildbbw. What killed the 'community' of a game like EverQuest was simple and started happening long before WoW hit the shelves. Raiding became prominent which lead to...

http://forums.riftgame.com/rift-gene...ml#post4127332 Welp, Defiance confirmed train wreck and Hartsman wants to be as far from that disaster as possible.

I had a certain game dev once contact me who said something to the effect of, "Your ideas would be great if the playerbase wasn't retarded." We talked for a bit and it really shaped the way I think about things like this. I used to have an idea for itemization which was basically...

Wife got a job teaching ESL. Let's me be a stay at home dad for a year or two while she works which is nice. Only real downside is Oman is 5000 miles from anywhere people want to build shit so I can't really play DOTA2 or anything like that. Plus most of the women out here, even if you get...

The only thing I miss about early WoW was that I was coming from EQ when I did it. Killing some random ass mob out in the middle of nowhere and it dropping an upgrade fucking floored me. "Wait...that wasn't a rare...and it dropped something useful? THE FUCK."

Several people that teach at the college here in Oman talk about how when they taught in Korea all they did was fuck Asians in their spare time. You come here and right in the goddamn booklet they give you there's a whole section on why you are strongly advised not to even talk to Omani women...

Middle East chicks are a mixed bag, like anywhere else. Lebanese and Syrian chicks aren't too bad but once you get into Iran, Yemen, Oman, Saudi, etc...it's one in a thousand if even that honestly. I mean if they'd just pluck their fucking unibrows we might be on to something. It also takes...

What you basically just described was a materials market. If you make the rarities such a pain in the ass to acquire that it's simply not worth it outside of collectors and the lucky...then the bots/rangrangs will farm raw mats that sell well in bulk. One thing to also consider is that a...

There's no reason you can't have nice items be droppable. My conclusion is that you can't really make droppable items the cornerstone of the market like it was in EQ without causing a botting epidemic or bringing back some really shady/bad game mechanics like cock blocking, spawn camping and so...

I know right? What shitty parents. My kid would never be seen walking around with an iPhone. He's going to be raised proper and I'd get him a Galaxy. I think the only thing that would cause me hesitation son something like this would be the concern of him losing it or someone stealing it...

Or they knew someone at SoE which was pretty common. The thing about WoW vs. EQ is that WoW is a commodities market whereas EQ was more of a rarities market, if that makes any sense. In WoW the bulk of trades are in terms of raw materials. You ask anyone where the money is and it's going to...

That reason hasn't ever held water. Learning what all your abilities do in PvE and then in PvP once would be easier then having to relearn it every other month due to rebalancing and whatnot. For that matter 99% of the excuses that Blizzard gave for everything were pure utter bullshit...

Cool beans, I'll look into these. MTG gonna be hard since I'm the only one I know of that enjoys it to any reasonable degree but I have Frozen Synapse, haven't played it yet though. Appreciate it sirs. +nets all around.

So I'm in the middle east for a few more months. While my internet connection is rock solid, I'm 5000 miles from anywhere people want to put things which makes it difficult to play MOBA's, RTS's, etc... Looking for suggestions on some lag friendly games (co-op preferred, competative is fine)...

You really shouldn't feel bad about asking for a refund whether it's days, months or years later. Even if you enjoyed a product. For one thing even in this case they still made a profit off you by investing the money you gave them for however long. Digital distribution for the fucking win...

I think it stems from back during MC or BW when you'd have 15 healers or whatever spamming the shit out of those auto-heal addons. I got so bored of it I'd tab out and play starcraft or whatever. I think there are screenshots somewhere Lelaniel took back in the day where I hadn't cast a heal...

Eomers gonna be an amazing dad some day. "What do you mean I only get 2 hours of sleep tonight?"

I remember 12 years ago my best friend freaking the fuck out when I accidentally used his real first name in guild chat one night. How times have changed. I imagine we all have some shit we"d rather keep hidden Eomer. I made the mistake a year ago of airing out some petty shit here. I"m...
