    My lunch today; total prep time 5 minutes, total eat time roughly the same. Chicken Thighs are like $1/lb in GA -- total cost of batch counting all ingredients is probably $1.50. Put 4 chicken thighs in slow-cooker. Mix up 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/3 cup honey... optional...

    EVE Online

    There are some really good youtube tutorials available too for how to do it quickly and other tips. Last two times I played Eve, I did a lot of null-sec exploration. It was kinda cool deep into "hostile" space carrying 200+ mil worth of loot knowing that everyone wanted a piece of you but no...

    Nah -- just roll fresh. They've revamped the tutorial and the stats/skills newb characters roll with (for the better) a handful of times since then so a new character very likely has far better stats than your ancient 1 week old.

    Hah, I was about to reply "Me too!" then I noticed boiled. What the fuck man. I should film my process so you can see how fucking easy it is. I brush the two chicken breasts with some coconut oil, sprinkle some of my spice blend on them, throw them on a really hot pan for 2-3 minutes each...

    I sub to Eve every 9 months or so like clockwork. I agree.

    That shit will be tuned pretty fast to make LFR completable. You know they have the metrics on "average completion rate" // "average completion time".

    Anyone got an addon suggestion that tracks where my gold income is coming from? I feel like I make 10k a day and I have no idea how.

    Sold a weapon upgrade thingy for 100k. The bloods cost me like 25k. Not a bad deal IMO. Initially had it listed at like 270k but realized I should just try to move it quick before people start undercutting (had the only one on ah). I will probably make another in a few days, I bet there are...

    I'm pretty happy with this so far -- I'm chilling at 100 iLvl 628 or some such just casually doing heroics. The change to the satchel was awesome, got a bpet worth 3k earlier. I'm a little sad that heroics feel trivialized now when I get some solid players -- but I joined a group earlier that...

    I played WoW last year right after SOO released and I don't remember there being much of substance other than kill celestials / clear SOO weekly. I don't know what you're expecting here -- what could Blizzard add to keep you entertained 4+ hours a day that isn't a ridiculous grind for their...

    You're a good sport man. People are teasing you because candy is nutritionally void, while most fruits are pretty goddamn good for you (many micronutrients that most Americans are deficient in), and the fiber in them tends to curb any chance of over-eating. I mean, I could smash 1200 calories...

    I'm kinda sad at how easy the heroics feel at 620 iLvl, but on the other hand, I'm not sure if I have the patience to return to the TBC-era of hand-crafting my party via tells and friends list... knowing that any stranger exponentially increases average duration time. At least now its tuned to...

    Any of you WoW vets have any idea how viable it'd be for someone to get high iLVL gear solo via gold? I don't know how frequent awesome shit is on the bmah. I have a friend who is vehemently opposed to group content -- I'm wondering if he could get rich farming old raids for rare drops or some...

    The last two times I played Eve I did a lot of null-sec exploration in hostile space. It's hard as fuck to catch a covert ops ship -- it pretty much takes a super-dedicated stealth bomber who is willing to pre-bookmark exploration sites and then patrol a series of systems hoping you start the...

    Why do you dislike the bmah? Seems like a pretty decent gold sink; probably goes a long way in maintaining a healthy economy.

    This is all wrong -- in this fantasy "the AH is too hard for me" scenario of yours, the selling price of an item is perpetually lower than whatever you list it at? Get the fuck out of here. This is the type of salty QQ bullshit post I'd expect to see on the official forums.

    I think its a fair point that you dislike the direction they went with professions. That it originally was a route for alts to twink themselves and its obvious from the forums that many people liked it... however... I also see why Blizzard thought that was ultimately pretty irrelevent. They...

    You're missing the point, man. My casual recluse friends don't perceive it as a grind -- they aren't racing to any sort of goal or competing against anyone. They very concept of a grind doesn't register with this crowd;if they ever feel like they're actually grinding they'll go play something...

    Meh -- I think Blizzard is trying to remove botters and farmers from professions. This current iteration of professions are meant to be progression routes for people who need them. For example, I have two friends that will absolutely never raid and likely never 5 man group. They're entertained...

    How many hours a day do you play WoW, and do you truly expect to be fully entertained playing WoW as a second job? You're part of a demographic that just isn't profitable to cater to. That you're working on your 3rd 100 in the first two weeks of an expansion means you're playing how much? Of...

    Out of curiosity, what would you like to see? Starting Tuesday, learning the new raid content will consume a lot of peoples time. I just don't see the point in commenting on the 100 game until AFTER raids are unlocked.

    I think the dailies are just a thing to do for the super-casuals who have minimal interest in raiding. This isn't the prime progression route intended for the crowd that plans to raid.

    What professions would be best for a returning (hasn't played since Vanilla) Druid? He has zero gold and is unlikely to group/raid much. Thinking skinning/LW to make gear?

    Lol I don't know why you're quibbling over this. Four great players with a shitty tank is still going to get shitpumped in heroics. They'd be better off booting the bad tank and waiting for a mediocre one. That's why I'm always so reluctant to play non-tank roles; I absolutely hate dealing...

    Yea -- a good tank might have a hard time carrying four bads... but at this stage in a new expansion, a tank is the ONLY role that could possibly carry four bads. It doesn't matter how shit hot you are on heals/dps, if you have a shitty tank then your dungeon run is going to miserable and...
