My cleric is up to level 45 now. When should I head to the Storm Legion Content? Straight at 50? I'd forgotten how painful some of these quests are: "Go gather me 15 harpy feathers!" 27 harpies later and I've got 8.

Results vary, I measured 27%, but Olivia Thirlby will refill the spank bank for a good month. Guaranteed.

This is the thing I hate most about winter. Not the cold, not the having to get up earlier and defrost the car, not the huge heating bills. But idiots driving at stupid mph when the roads clearly aren't icy. I hate people.

There's a pretty exciting interviewherewith Chris Roberts. Among other things he says that the game will be PC only, hurrah!

This is how I feel too. Leaving aside the business model for a moment, it would take a great deal of effort and expense to get the game back on track. I've been back and played briefly twice since I stopped playing 4 or 5 months after release. While initially it feels great to be back in the...

No, Guardian, but from what you've said I presume it's the same for both. I've got 3 level 50s and a crafting minion, so I know the starter zone like the back of my hand even after 18 months. All the quest mobs, clickies, and collectables are still there, but they just don't do anything and...

I've just started playing this again. Rather than try and figure out how things work again with my 50s I've started over with a cleric. Loving it so far, I think it's just been a long time since I had an MMO fix. It was a bit strange how they've obviously removed 75% of the starter zone...

Awesome film, and kudos to Karl Urban for not taking his helmet off throughout the entire movie. Here's hoping for a sequel.

Snow has arrived! Winter...finally.

There's an interesting articleherewhere the creator describes instancing etc. The impression I get is it is similar to Guild Wars in that there are "Town" hubs and then instanced space, but on a larger scale than just your group.

I saw an ad once, pretty sure it was legit, on Saturday Night Live for a diet called the "Stop eating so goddam much diet". I think that would be more successful than this one.

Ahhh I see. Sickness policy differs dramatically between companies, never mind countries though. For instance, where I work now, we get 10 days or 5 instances (whichever comes first) of paid sick leave annually. That is the most generous allowance I've had ever, yet there are still people who...

Are you replying to Ancient and quoting me by mistake? Your question makes no sense.

Confirmed advocate of presenteeism. Seriously though, what you say is partially true. However, it's less the coughing and spluttering that winds me up, but more the "Look at me! I could be at home sick, but I'm so devoted I came in anyway *sniffle sniffle*" nonsense. Coming into work while ill...

Go to the gym 3+ times a week instead of once or twice a week. Get out on my bike more. Drink less fizzy drinks.

I got the flu shot this year, but only because work had a doctor come in and do them for free, most years I don't bother. I have only had the flu once when I was in my early twenties. Most of my illnesses are due to a certain group of people that consider themselves heroes for coming in to...

Ha, I'm in the exact same position. Within days of me starting playing this, I referred to it as "That fucking game". Whenever I play it my blood pressure goes through the roof, but I just can't put it down. I do wish a competent dev studio would take over and release the next edition with a UI...

I'm going to echo this, except the beer is gilding the lily. Anything that makes your mind work, physics lectures about quantum tunnelling etc tends to send me off super fast. My problem is my mind just won't stfu and unless it's distracted I have little chance of falling asleep.

I had a dream last night that I was asleep in bed, but it wasn't in my house. I was in my parents old house, in their room. I woke up because I heard a spider crawling around. When I turned the lights on I saw the spider, it was the one from 27bslash6, with the little face and everything. Except...

Fine, I guess I couldn't live without Steam, I hate having to swap disks.

It's difficult to figure out what you couldn't live without until you actually have to live without it, as we take so much stuff for granted. If we take running water, food, heating, shelter, and power as a given, I'd say there's nothing I couldn't live without.

Lot of memories in this thread.

Indeed.

Merry Christmas!

What OS are you running? And which service pack? Do you have MS updates installing automatically all the time? How long has this been an issue? Have you made any hardware changes recently?

That's pretty much as good as it gets. I've spent a while in Iceland as I have a lot of family out there, and while even in the summer it's cold as fuck, it's still sunnier. The first time I went there in the summer we climbed a dead volcano and even though it was near freezing and I got sun...

It'll log an event regardless yeah, but the pop up in the bottom right appears sporadically on the machine the OS suspects is "in the wrong", which switches, so it's not a reliable indicator.

Are you using fixed IP addresses? You'd get that behaviour if you had an IP conflict on your network. You could try doing an ipconfig /release then ipconfig /renew in a command prompt. What OS are you running? If XP you can try runningthis toolto unrustle your winsock jimmies.

There's a graveyard at the end of my driveway. At one point I thought the dead were rising from the grave, but it just turned out to be the gardener, so I waved. He didn't wave back....

^^lol I've played through this 3 times now and although it is an awesome game, I'm still waiting for them to enable the "marathon mode" that was disabled at release. I still find the game is just too short and rushed.

I went out and got a bunch of my friends black babies. I'm like Martin Luther King basically.

Oh hai guys. Well it's 11am here in bonny old England. A cursory glance out of my window suggests all is business as usual, it's actually quite mild and sunny. I have run out of milk though, so I had to have coffee this morning using powdered milk, maybe that's what the Mayans predicted?

With so many people eager to look at pictures of naked men and their junk, maybe it's time to create a gay area of the forum where they can all hang out and chat. Progressive.

Why do so many people have an obsession about posting dick? When you go out with your friends do you take a bunch of cock pictures to show them? What is the appeal? Seriously.

As many as 1 in 10 people have persistent tinnitus that is mild and not very troublesome. However, about 1 in 100 people have tinnitus which persists most of the time. Tinnitus is common and can occur at any age. In most cases there is no easy cure. Some people are helped by understanding the...

The one and only time I've ever "cheated" was when I was with a rebound girl who I honestly only hung around with for company following a break up. Despite having little to no feelings about the girl I was with I broke up with her the next day because I didn't want to lead her on. I've been...

The worst kind of loser.

While I do now browse this site at work, I used to browse fohguild.org at work. I guess as the old site has shut down now you could say browsing this new forum is common sense, yes.

I said this on Morenetz before the madness, but I'll say it here again. Lots of people including me browse the forums at work. Isn't it common sense to contain the NSFW and donger shenannigans to screenshots? That way people can comfortably read and contribute to the majority of the board...

It's win win being sane. If it turns out all the logical thinkers are wrong and the world does indeed end, then all the people who are right will be too busy getting burned to death to say "I told you so."
