    Phobia of flying...what to take?

    My ex was shit scared of flying to the point where she would crush my hand with a death grip during take off and landing and quietly weep to herself during turbulence or otherwise bumpy flights. Yet we would take 6 - 12 hour flights at least twice every year as she loves Vegas and the US and she...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    I'm pretty sure I started the blazing row that made me finish with my girlfriend with Agnarr weighing heavily in my subconscious.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Decisions, do I roll bard again and just deal with my hatred of kiting fear or finally branch out into that wizard or rogue I've always wanted to gear out. Would possibly be interested in rolling up with you dudes - I'm guessing you don't have a problem with occasional posters signing up as...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    10/10 for ambition, it's a shame it'll be in development for another two years. It's certainly been bizarre watching this turn from a trainwreck into a viable venture, surely they've come far enough now that they'll push something out the door eventually. Also wasn't their original kicktarter...

    Project 1999 - Making Norrath Great Again

    Both are relatively easy gained - the spawnable Trak is in for the bard guts and red scales can be done with a little light rage fire poop socking- alternatively there's plenty on the market.

    EQ Next: #1 Next gen MMO

    Aye its absolutely ridiculous how much that is the case. At the launch event it's now obvious they looked at whatever emerging technologies there were, decided they were going to put all of them in the game, make some art assets and announce it to the world.

    Project 1999 - Making Norrath Great Again

    I used to always get that skipping thing as well - would often be 180'd into a kite on my bard.. I used to get the horizontal thing as well, ruined many screenshots.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I thought that too, maybe he's been doing other programming things while waiting for his big break back into the gaming industry. There was a LinkedIn profile for a statistical programmer Robert Crane but making an account to view it is beyond how many fucks I give. To be honest, I think I've...

    Actually snorted when I read that tweet. If it had any chance of success Daybreak wouldn't have canned a game 3+ years in development when they took over. Fucking delusional.

    It wasn't even the constant slating he took over Pantheon that drove him away but some dumb drama over an NFL bet, wasn't it?

    Dealing with addiction

    Aye, don't hate yourself for slipping up - if it didn't end up in a class A fuelled mess then it's a victory. Think of it as step towards being able to party without going buck wild although don't take it as confirmation that's what you'll do everytime - the road is slippery pal.

    Dealing with addiction

    If you're always going to be addicted to something a solid weed habit is the way to go. It's enjoyable to do indoors by yourself or in small groups, being stoned in a pub sucks and kills any desire I have for hard drugs. Also delete your hard drug dealers phone numbers, I've never had a problem...

    When does laziness cross the line into depression?

    Life is dull as fuck sometimes. When I get like that I usually end up taking it as a sign I'm not happy and - not always consciously - change something to make life more interesting. Examples from the past few years, in no particular order, would be stepping up indulgence in a particular drug...

    Project 1999 - Making Norrath Great Again

    Haha, I remember hearing rumblings that Ephi was involved - hellish Irony that. Did you see all this in those csr logs that Greengrocer released or did you have another source? I could never be fucked trawling through them, I was really active in Asgard at the time and everything I heard was...

    Dredd 2 (2026 Confirmed!)

    I was working in a cinema when Dredd 3D came out and I barely knew it was happening. It didn't help that it was released around a time period when people were getting pissed off about movies being released in 3D only (I remember the distributors wouldn't even let us book a 2D version of this in...

    Nah, gear has the traditional stats on this server. You do start of with a custom charm which has a ds and a few stat boosts.

    I haven't done any luclin yet but that has been my experience trying to do velious content level appropriately. I haven't tried IS Boxer but I've got a similar set up with mq2, I do mostly everything from my enc.

    Visions of Grandeur (making dad-servers great again!)

    @Rikkon cheers, my combo is war/enc/clr/rogue. We'll be able to get stuff done! @mkopec you're right about the velious+ raid stuff, most of it is too touch with a 4 box, especially without a slower. While I think the old world and kunark is balanced well the big jump in hps and damage come...

    Visions of Grandeur (making dad-servers great again!)

    I'm still playing casually a couple of nights a week. Currently working my way through levels and Velious content - my dudes are at 60 atm. Look out for Bigbaws, Weeprick, Docdalv or Mezzindalv if you want to do some content. My dad also plays more often, his lead is Scaly and he'd be happy to...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    As far as I know both these servers allow the rof2 mq2 version for qol stuff but I don't know if straight up scripts etc are allowed. I doubt anyone would notice in any case.

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    I also had that .dll problem but dropping it in the emu folder solved it for me before hitting the current error. Thanks for the web installer tip, I'll give that a try. NL has a lot of custom stuff and progression quests (or at least used to) and VoG is more straight up with no gated content...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    From what I can see its a problem that can occur with a variety of games. Try reinstalling your .net frameworks and vc++ redistrubatbles as that seems to be the most common solution to the error. It didn't work for me (my 2012 distributable is giving me trouble) but you never know!

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    @Tilluin is it error 00xc000007b by any chance? I've no problems on my desktop pc but direct copies of that folder to my laptop and a fresh install of the files from the VoG emu (which is essentially the same) keep bringing this up. I've tried just about everything Google has to offer to get...

    It was Derubael and he did it exactly what you said - was stripping banned accounts and RMTing the items and made 10k if rumours are to be believed. Derubael was (I think) former community member Gotrocks who had a but of fame in the p99 forums for being helpful in technical discussion, being a...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    I should say I havent read any of Esslemont's after RotCG and I actually found it really enjoyable like you said and a lot more accessible than most of the Book of the Fallen stuff. Maybe I just had Malazan burn out after committing to 10 books and finding storylines and huge events that were...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Shit not getting resolved is what riled me up the most about this series. I picked it up when book 8 was out and reread it through when book 9 and then 10 came out and it's definitely a hell of a ride, especially the first third. Rereads are awesome when you actually have a clue what's going on...

    Aye Velious has been put since August 2015, they are very slowly completing the various patches and updates that took place during Velipus but like I said the devs seem to have largely lost interest at the moment, they patch every 3 months or so. it's still fun but if you want to do high end...

    Project 1999 - Making Norrath Great Again

    P99 is still a fun ride 1 - 60 but if you want to raid you're faced with bat phones, 16 hour variance on mob spawns and I think foot racing for fte is still the gms flavour of the month for determining who gets the mob. That being said I think VP and Tunare are currently rotated amongst the...
