    Homeowners

    My experience with owning one has been fairly negative. Just wanted to see what other people thought about pool ownership. Guess I'm not alone. Long story short, it requires constant maintenance, when stuff breaks or goes wrong it's costly and we rarely use it, even in a warm climate. It's...

    Homeowners

    Anyone buy a house with a pool? If so, how do you feel about it?

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    2 things that may explain it: 1) They need capital quickly and software has a very little inherent cost, so almost all money generated is profit. 2) A lot of the games had DLC or add-ons that are not part of the pack. They probably hope you like some of the games and buy additional content.

    Thank you Draegan, Goodbye FOH

    Really? You'd like her to get the satisfaction of shitting up a whole new forum for few days? Think, then type. The community has made it abundantly clear they lose all traces of rationality when dealing with her.

    A good example of works in theory, doesn't work in practice, I suppose.

    Thank you Draegan, Goodbye FOH

    This isn't an argument I want since I resented the shit out of her as well. Just saying it seems like a simple solution and if a community is willing to set up and move to an entirely different board, you'd think they'd be willing to check a box. However, history is on Grim and Phaz's side.

    Thank you Draegan, Goodbye FOH

    Kind of harsh, but right. If the board membership did a blanket ignore, the problem would have been solved and it probably would have pissed them the fuck off as a bonus.

    Thank you Draegan, Goodbye FOH

    It's been done a number of other times, but the cliff notes are: - FoH picked up malware, management acknowledges the problem and refuses to fix it or give someone access to fix it - Tyen and Trexx allowed to run wild - Community got sick of both problems, switched to MoreNetz - "Girl"...

    North Korea

    It's trivial to correct someone if you have facts to back it; it's often impossible to get them to change their mind if they are dug in. Gavin, let's hear some enlightenment. Even if NK's situation is indeed all our fault, how is the world better off if they develop global nuclear strike...

    North Korea

    Is inertial guidance really that hard? We did it with 1950s tech and unlike rocket technology, the tech used in guidance has become much more accessible and accurate. Toys have fairly accurate gyros in them now. Besides, how accurate do they even need to be? The capability to land a nuke...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'm not holding out hope for good PvP, though they pleasantly surprised with 1.0.4 and 1.0.5, so who knows. Today's 8 hrs of downtime for a fuck-all patch was lame. Moth: you will see numerous loot builds for classes, especially with the revamped legos. Skill variation has increased with...

    I was holding out hope that Req would see what had happened, reflect on the situation and make things right where people wanted to go back. I guess he went the other way. Req, sincere thanks for the years of good times you enabled. Draeg, thanks for taking on the headache!

    Yeah, I should probably know better. He's good at what he does, I guess. If you don't put in the time to get numerous high end weapons (like Atmas), gem boxes, economizers and max your stats through high end leveling with the right espers in FF6, the characters remain different. FF6 opened the...

    Sorry Sean. I killed the previous post because I didn't feel like discussing it further. You're right, you can build them all the same with careful planning and a shitload of grinding, which I did on one play-through.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I now have 4 of the 5 classes to (at least) P1. Because of the massive XP boost from MP10 + HF ring + helm ruby, only my main is in Inferno still. WD is my final class to level. I've been tracking what it cost me to buy passable gear for each class at level 60. I'll be posting the detailed...

    Wow, that's a billion+ gold amulet. Those Lacunis are probably also insanely pricey. Those drops or buys? Are you burnt out as fuck now?

    It's probably a rolling 7 day counter. Since it was 10k a couple of days ago, 6k now makes sense if the forum was getting >2k posts a day and is now down to <100.

    I got lucky as fuck in Blitzball. Early on, one of the top forwards didn't resign with his team and I picked him up. It was easy mode for the entire game, that guy could score at will. I've played 1-12 (minus 11), and I finished 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10 & 12. I finished 1, 4, 6 and 7 multiple...

    What's the legitimate explanation for the user list suddenly being full of obvious bot names? That was not the case prior to the malware downwards spiral. I understand they would be more noticeable if normal users were not logged in, but I don't remember seeing any bot names before the site...

    Nirgon, I saw this in the Path of Exile thread and thought of you: Thought you might want a heads up since D3 PvP is delayed and the implementation doesn't sound promising.

    Sorry to hear that =( It started off slow, but the "class-free" system really shines as you figured out synergies between specs you wouldn't think to pair together at first. The itemization and charm system were also good, IMO.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    You'd need to read the patch notes for all the game fixing stuff that was added in 1.0.4 and 1.0.5. Both were huge, game changing patches. The TL;DR is they re-tuned Inferno to be playable, upped the amount of yellows dropped and the way affixes are rolled, completely overhauled legendaries...

    Realm of the Mad God

    We had a conversation on this going over at MoreNetz, so may as well get it going here. RotMG is a F2P bullet hell fantasy themed game with 80ish player game worlds. Best (worst?) of all, you can play anywhere since it is browser based. They released a Steam client as well to capture that...

    The community is the history. Req made his feelings about the community very clear: "fuck all of you " and "helping T&T fuck with you makes me happy" sums it up. Req deserves a lot of credit for keeping the forums running for a decade+. But as others said, I'll take my chances with a site...
