    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I know. Doesn't change my previous statement: It paints a picture of a general mentality. Unto itself it doesn't mean much, but in the context of all the other shit, it lends credence to the idea of the allegations being accurate.

    The texts/chatgroup are honestly the bigger piece of that whole Cosby Suite thing. It shows the mentality of "lets hook up with hot chicks while working", which when taken into context of all the allegations, paints a picture that confirms a general mentality that correlates with the complaints.

    I think a good chunk of Asmon's chat is really young. He mentioned how in the past people used to say "we raped that raid boss" or something to that effect in gaming and how it was used in a different context, and tons of people in chat were like "omg, I've never heard such a thing!". No shit...

    The trick of false prophets everywhere -Say reveal is "soon" -Fail to define soon -When enough time passes that no reasonable person could consider to be "soon", then they either claim that something else happened "recently" that changed things or they extend the lie until some event even...

    Lol you can't lay that on him. This forum only became a conservative cesspool around the time Obama got elected from what I recall, long after he stopped posting.

    They wouldnt find much from him...he stopped posting on the forums not long after he joined the WoW dev team. If you recall, people started to cry that the FOH forums were getting responses vs. the official bnet forums, after which all the former EQ1 players turn devs stopped posting here...

    While I liked AA abilities, I hated the means of obtaining them. It essentially forced you to grind XP forever - not just for AA, but also to get XP buffer to prevent deleveling during raids wipes. Also, at least as of PoP, there was zero catchup mechanics for AA - you would always be...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Right, WoW was timed just perfectly with EQ shitting the bed and we all saw how that turned out in the long run. I have to suspect at some point someone, somewhere, on that team as a solution to falling numbers said "hey, battlepasses work well! lets make a hidden battlepass and turn this...

    That does remind me, how when you gave consent to have someone drag your corpse, how they also could loot your corpse of anything that wasnt no drop. I was a trust worthy person on the server, so people usually asked me to hold stuff for them if they wanted to alt transfer loot and crap. In...

    My guild died in PoP as well. We cracked Elemental Planes, suffered a mass loss in players/leadership, no one wanted to rebuild, and the guild died (although not before the guild leaders left looted the banks and peaced out). Then without a guild, I tried to get into other guilds, but got...

    I'm sure all of that will get figured out when it comes to it and there is actual profit to be made. Until now, it has been pipe dream fantasy. While we still arent there yet, it feels like it is getting closer. Antarctica is sort of the same right now - everyone is willing to hold hands and...

    Star Trek: Prodigy

    Reasoning behind this is pretty easy to figure out. New fanbase for Star Wars was previously created by the animated properties like Clone Wars and Rebels. So they figure they will try the same thing for Star Trek.

    Tim Russ played a person trying to steal the Enterprise before he was Tuvok. Wouldn’t be sci-fi without recycled actors

    Early EQ was funny like that. Most people were still dialup, had low ram, etc. In Velious I upgraded from 4 ram to 8 ram and my loading times for zones went from like 5 minutes to 30 seconds

    Doesn’t matter if it is the state or a person, plaintiff attorney is going to overstate as much as humanly possible to support their case, just like a defense attorney is going to call everything bullshit to support theirs.

    I took her inclusion, and the reactions of other people, as a way of trying to demonstrate this was common behavior for Alex so people had become desensitized to it

    Good point, the irony is pretty spot on here. Some people on this forum are "Haha stupid girl, she shouldn't have posted nudes online because she might get consequences" are also "Guys, we should hide the politics forum from prying eyes because us being racist and insurrectionist might...

    AoC was one of the biggest bait & switches in MMO history. It was the equivalent of walking into an department store with a super opulent lobby, then you go up the escalator and all the shelves are bare and there are crackheads camping out in the ruins of the lingerie section

    I had some guide friends in EQ1 and they used to tell me that the rules on what they could or could not do changed a lot by start of Kunark/very late Vanilla EQ1. On our server, there used to be a lot of GM/Guide events beyond the normal ones they would make on their own and get people to...

    While being in high cost of living areas contributes a bit, there are other shitty employer practices which cause issues, like permanent "Consultant" roles where you're never actually an employee, thus they get out of having to give you benefits and also you have a lot less protections from...

    I was asleep when the planes hit, but I was woken up after the 2nd plane/Pentagon hit and first thing I was told was "we're under attack! they just hit NYC and the Pentagon" and my first thought was thinking that WW3 had begun or something because no one explained anything after they told me...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Anyways, current "inside" rumor is that they have paused work on WoW. While maybe the lawsuit has a bit to do with it, I suspect the past few weeks of WoW getting eviscerated are the straw that broke the camel's back. I wouldn't be surprised if big shakeup announcements are made soon, but I...

    While tinfoil hats are trying to lump Tigole in with this, I don't think that was the case. It seems more plausible that it was just part of all the OG Blizzard getting the boot or leaving and he got forced out as well. If you look at the other narratives coming out of this (billion dollar...

    Sure, tech can exist. Doesn't mean it is cheap. Plus some of the things proposed would have their own challenges in terms of how to process them without ready access to certain things, like water (since you need water for keeping people alive, and there is less of it, you dont want to waste it...

    You can’t refine/manufacture stuff in space until you have the infrastructure in place to do those things. Like he mentioned, cheap access to space is key to achieving that, because it lowers initial investment costs and gets you to a break even point faster, assuming what you sell can achieve...

    Loosening dress code is fine if you aren’t customer facing. If you’re sitting in a cube for 8 hours a day, I want to be comfortable, not wearing a stupid tie. Ties don’t even make sense anymore - originally they were just shit to keep your shirt closed, then we invented buttons that did the...

    If you look at the name they picked, it’s clear that they picked one that lets them change a couple letters so they can save money on rebranding maybe? In-dians becomes guar-dians

    Asmon always countered that by saying these games set unrealistic standards for men also - they’re all perma ripped chads with 6 packs. Most people project what they aspire to look like or want to look like, not what they look like IRL exactly. Although I do find it funny that when they...
