Because you weren't doing a great job of hooking me into reading your article. Don't worry, it's nothing personal, I skip lithose's posts sometimes too. So if i understand you correctly, the rmah is devaluing your perceived value of farming? To which I respond as before: the same would have...

The blue cheese would cover up the jack cheese even more. Might as well just make a blue cheese sauce. I do agree, cheddar and blue would be conflicting. Cheddar cheese sauce is possible, that + elbows and you've basically got mac and cheese. You can't add too much at once or it "breaks"...

Same would have happened via trading, just would have taken longer. Either way, it looks like they're attempting to fix the problem without the hamfisted "fix" of outright removal of the AHs.

Nah. Not until you convince me it has anything to do with what we're talking about. RMAH, gold AH, and trading all shortcut the "true" method of discovering items: farming.

Mind giving me the tl;dr? Going on little bit before that wall of text, trading isn't discovering an item either.

Good job on the pretzels, who's recipe did you use? I've found it much easier to manage by shaping them into pretzel nuggets. Might even consider stuffing them next time.

Not one, but two jack cheeses! In a carefully tuned 3:2 ratio too! Do yourself a favor and toss the jack cheese and replace it with good sharp cheddar. That way you'll actually taste the damn cheese. Jack cheese, the iceberg lettuce of the cheese world. And here's where I complain...

Time for Deathwing's idiotic question(s) of the day! Someone explain trade to me because I think I'm missing out on a huge source of income. Transfer trade power, should I use that and when? Trade steering, how do I determine which node to send my merchant to trade steer? Obviously you...

Sandier than a_skeleton_03?

You sure it's masturbating? As in, for pleasurable effect. Or just playing with something. Because I'll still play with my balls just because. And I'm an adult, or people say I should act like one in public.

I like how you avoided the part about how I suggested socializing through the actual game instead of incidentally through buying/selling gear. I will fault Blizzard for not having built-in voice communication like WoW does(SC2 too?). I don't get your comment on currency. You can avoid...

Are there built in objectives? Who 'wins' when 1821 rolls around? The nation with the highest arbitrary score?

Gameplay is not the same between level 40 and level 60. I mean, you should have said paragon 1 and paragon 90, but you still would have been wrong. Inherent to farming is that you'll pick up gear along the way that will change how you play. Now, that doesn't work out for all classes, but for...

Can a country reach a limit of how many loans it can take out? I declared war on Lithuania, they have 46k available manpower but aren't recruiting any units. Lucky for them, Poland came to bail their asses out with a 55k stack and a fucking FIVE pip fire leader. So, yeah, gonna savescum their...

I mentioned that previously, that lack of social element in the AH. And...I don't care. It's just not worth the tedium. If you want socializing, play the game over vent with some friends. Do you remember anyone from trading in D2? I don't understand your question. Gold is the game's...

Just to get the flanking bonus.

Why n-2 for artillery? To account for casualties during the battle? I was thinking almost doing the same exact thing, but n/4/n instead.

Not going to happen.

Keep mentioning it, maybe it will happen. Or realize you're hoping one day Blizzard will knowingly change the game so you can grief people.

If you like going around game to game to find trade deals, then yes, that explains it. But that is the harder way. Easily takes much more time than just throwing your drops up on the AH and returning to farming. When I say AH, I mean just the gold AH. I dislike the RMAH and I'm in no way...

I don't understand that either! You like doing it the hard way? The only thing I can think of is that trading isn't completely faceless and dehumanized like the AH is? Help me out here, because this is still sounding like misplaced nostalgia for D2, like immunities.

Not sure I understand the hate for the AH. It enables you to be excited about drops that you know are good but you wouldn't use. Now, the actual economy of the AH is messed up, but that can be fixed without just blowing the whole thing away.

No. And don't put that 'yet' in there like it's going happen.

Releasing cores seems to work alright. The couple times I've done it, the country I gave back to went and lost them almost immediately. I've just changed my tactics to only take high tax areas. Egypt especially has expanded into a lot of poor areas, and they can keep them! So, my question...

How is that sad? A weapon that procs cyclone strike is pretty awesome for a melee character.

Poison makes corpses green! Mechanics wise, cold damage applies a snare. And "black" damage, i.e. no element type, just straight +min/max damage, is superior than elemental damage if you have gear that adds +elemental damage. I know, makes no sense. And they *might* have patched that, or...

I agree with Tenks, the resistances and immunities were horrible in D2. But only because the way the game let you deal with it, for most characters, led to gimping your character overall. You couldn't focus on frozen orb, if that happened to be your favorite skill, now you have to mix in some...

What's wrong with weapon damage?

keesh? seriously? I do agree about scrambled eggs and some form of bread. I like to put them on a biscuit with sausage or bacon, ghetto breakfast sandwich. I would like to try Gordon Ramsay's method for scrambled eggs(it's pretty much the same as lurkeydirkey's), but I'm half...

I don't make scrambled eggs often, I honestly prefer a bowl of cereal. But the wife is on a low carb diet(gestational diabetes) so she's having eggs more often. I'm honestly getting sick of fried eggs, so I might ask for scrambled next time. If you get big chunky curds...doing it wrong?

I'm guessing that the percentage of the playerbase that finds that fun is very small.

Speaking of Cain, wasn't he the last Horadrim? Or is Tyreal getting the gang back together?

The fly episode was horrible because I think what it accomplished(character development) could have been done while also advancing the plot in some fashion. I've only watched that episode once, but I remember being bored. I have no problems character-based episodes, but putting the breaks on...

Didn't someone make a comment earlier that they should just say "baddies over there, go kill them."? I agree with that. This high school level of a plot is just so bad. Or just completely rip off a better piece of literature. I would actually like to see if a video game could pull of a...

So you had scrambled eggs instead?

Why are you buying a Nexus 7 instead of a wireless router?

Hood.

Two teenage punks killed his wife, so he got all emo and rounded a bunch of other angels to assault the realm of Death. But just before they won, he was all like 'syke!', and sat on the throne instead.

Don't worry, 4k streaming will break 802.11ac. Don't you know that's why 4k TVs were made? More seriously, I've never had issues streaming 720p over 802.11n to my Boxee, which I'm pretty sure is 1t1r. Never had two baby cams going at once though. It definitely can't handle 1080i/p, but I...

Don't worry, 802.11ac will fix it. And if that doesn't, the next draft will. And if that doesn't, the next draft will. What's the transmitter and receiver count on the devices you're streaming? Kind of a shame that most devices with built-in 802.11n only have 1t1r. Is at least one more...
