God I hate when shit becomes so popular it's cool to hate on it... Side note as I'm really not sure how you can hate the new OS. It's the same shit with different icons/sounds. Also has some nice new perks like being able to swipe to go back on Safari and shit like that. The level of change...

I keep seeing shit like this. I must be really fortunate in the IT jobs I get. Been at my current gig a year where I'm in charge of a 200k equipment budget, make 55k a year with an associates degree, and can do pretty much whatever I want as long as things are progressing and I resolve user...

That is almost exactly the point we are illustrating. Nobody is arguing that the game itself is poorly designed, clunky, or whatever. It is by far the best ARPG in terms of smoothness, graphics, and any other variable you want to toss in. The flaw is in the mechanics behind the scenes. The...

Lithose is really hitting the nail on the head. In your example you simply have not reached the final stage. As you progress you will slowly start to question what you gain by playing and your interest will dwindle. Either that or you play so infrequently that you may never reach that point.

I was going to give you a long response, but random dungeons mean dick. People want to feel that their time invested = progress. If someone uses the auction house to buy the best possible gear they can afford then there is very little progress outside of small amounts of gold accumulated and...

Ok we can write that up as a misunderstanding then. I was more trying to illustrate that the reason drops aren't plentiful, and were even less so right after release was due to balancing around the AH. I completely agree that the AH will always have better items regardless of drop rates, and...

The difficulty of Inferno is completely irrelevant to the discussion. The itemization was shit in the beginning, but yes even in that instance the auction house made the game easier. I got absolutely no excitement when a weapon dropped of any variety, and do you know why? Because I had already...

There's a reason its an obnoxious slog. Because even in its current form the drops are relatively abundant when spread across the million some odd people playing every single day! You really have no ground to stand on saying the auction house doesn't directly effect drop rates. In D2 if I found...

Some of you are definitely missing the fundamental issue with the auction house. If trading is going to be infinitely easier then they need to throttle the item drops. When trading difficulty increases then they can ease up on the drops. You can't have both the auction house and super easiness...

Really shocked people are talking about accounting, but not CS or IT. CS is a bit harder to get into, but if you're good at it you'll make great pay and have a super flexible work schedule with an awesome skill. IT is super flexible as well, but generally a bit less pay than CS unless you're an...

This smells of nostalgia. He's all excited now, but I foresee this coming to a close Vanguard style or even worse.

My experience. It's a lot harder to get your career up and running w/o a degree, but once you're foot is in the door if you have good business insight and leadership skills you can be put in charge of shit with no degree. Just need to have the right attitude and put in a lot of effort.

Yeah. The fact that Grumpus went from never marry to "Oh I want to marry right away" just shows that he has never been in that serious of a relationship. Not that that's a bad thing, but it explains the sudden shift in his feelings. Anyways Grumpus to give you some encouragement. I started...

Ummm two things. 1. Auction house definitely gave a sting to bad loot, but the balancing around it made your % chance of finding an item EVEN less so it was a double edged sword. You found less items, and you had better items easily available via the auction house. 2. Original Inferno was...

Or they don't understand basic human psychology/nature... In other words idiots.

Buddy is a dev at Amazon. This is definitely true. His words "Amazon treats developers as a necessary evil." Basically he thinks if they could axe developers they would.

Big shocker, but that's probably the point. To give you something to aspire for. I'm beyond sick of people who want instant gratification having an effect on the game industry. The entire point of playing these types of games is to try an get lucky and acquire some cool stuff, not mod your save...

I played for about an hour. Definitely exceeded my low expectations by a large margin. I'd put the animations and game quality right up there with WoW. I enjoyed the change in combat from regular auto attack to having to click even if it's relatively the same in the long rung. I also thought the...

You guys are pretty funny. If you intend to buy a new console then I have no idea why you would wait. Sure you can look back and say "Oh RED RING!!", but lets be realistic here. The red ring issue wasn't resolved on the production side for a long ass time (years?). And as far as price drops, do...

Can you guys imagine the media circus had these pieces of shit walked up on a CCW holder. Oh man I can see the salty facebook tears of injustice now! "These poor young kids just wanted to get some money for some Skittles and a Tea, and yeah they made a mistake, but they didn't deserve to get...

Meh, not to derail, but I think if you could find the right hard ass like Steve Jobs it could change. The entire culture of Microsoft is one of "good enough". The best example of this would definitely be the Surface and Windows 8. You know damn well pretty much everyone who played with them saw...

Sometimes I wonder if this was a really poorly thought out con by both the girl and her boyfriend as well as theTitlemaxguy to sell an already stolen car.

Pretty sure all COD games on both consoles have used P2P hosting to date.

None of you care about the fact that Xbox and only Xbox is going to have dedicated servers for COD? I know this forum is rampant of anti COD, but surely this is going to sway some people... I know I was pretty committed to ditching the Xbox, but when COD is the game I play most with friends I...

Definitely true. My cousin got married after five years of dating, and the chick said she was unhappy six months after that...

Looking up the laws on license plates is hard. Even more curious is all this talk of fines when this transaction should not of taken anywhere near thirty days. Pretty sure Eomer has it right. They're all morons. It's no wonder the local police wouldn't get involved...

More evidence that there was some sort of agreement on the plates. Like I said before. It just doesn't add up. You have both the boyfriend, and lady referring to the plates and fines. Why would he say "by not living by your word"? It just doesn't make sense. Even the dumbest mother fucking...

Once again dude. These prove my theory. Both of you are stubborn idiots. Here's a tip. The plates don't help you. They are not leverage in a car sale. Obviously she's a dumb bitch, but next time mail her the plates! The very fact she thought it was ok for you to keep them, and then realized...

Something is extremely fishy here. I'm sorry, but you are omitting a shit load of details. I feel like you told her as soon as you got home you'd mail the plates. On your way home you went "Oh shit, I don't have any proof I bought the car, so I'll keep the plates until I get the title" as if...

Yeah I agree. Seems like everyone has some pics of them playing a Kinect game the first few days they get it and then they never use it again. I personally have a few friends and a relative who own the Kinect and none of them use it at all.

Ok, so maybe I'm crazy, but I'm posting this here because I'm quote curious. 3000-6000 SQ. Ft. lots are selling for $1.00 - $200.00 in Detroit (shitty house included, so bulldozing/disposal fees likely a cost later on). Yes, I'm aware it's a bankrupt shit hole, but if it were to turn around in...

I voted for Obama, and my impression that this is a ploy to distract people from looking at the IRS scandal and other crap. Before the Zimmerman craze every week was just more and more justified bashing of the current administration. Now all you see is crap about rioting and Zimmerman.

Yes I'm aware of that. It was more of a rhetorical question... I just find it amusing that they're so many people in this thread that seem to think Martin was justified in starting a fight with Zimmerman.

Serious post... There have been times I have been walking long distances home and someone behind me seems to make every turn that I make almost as if I'm being followed, but eventually they go another route or I end up at home. What is the definitive distance that is considered following? It...

Watching much CNN? Fuck what is with this he's not guilty shit, but oh he's not innocent either. He's not guilty! News flash, if some dude was following me I'd book it and call the cops on my cell phone. Punching him or getting into any type of physical altercation would be my very last resort.

This was my thought. I certainly wouldn't approach someone that was following me, and if a confrontation did occur I would likely be like "Ummm, is there a problem? Something I can help with?" I certainly wouldn't start wailing on them unless it was the only option. I mean what do the police...

Let's hope if he's found guilty that the backlash comes through on those who are guilty of railroading him.

Welcome to the American justice system. It's nothing but a big chess game for all the overpaid lawyers out there.

They are much more convenient, and you'd be shocked how many people have no idea about PC specs let alone how to build one. There will always be a place for consoles even if they are just a limited use computer.

Either he saw the writing on the wall, or Ballmer gave him a courtesy heads up to start looking for a new gig... EDIT Wow. Maybe I'm behind the times, but I didn't realize this guy spent the majority of his career at EA. Not that any developer/publisher is out to help the consumer, but this...
