    New cold war?

    So in your mind Carter and Reagan are exactly the same? Ok.

    New cold war?

    The Soviets could have limped along for another 40 or 50 years. Reagan just shortened the inevitable endgame. If Carter had won, we would still be dealing with a very sick and pathetic USSR.

    New cold war?

    USSR bankrupted themselves and fell apart trying to keep up with America's Military Complex. Reagan announcing the Strategic Defense Initiative (Star Wars) was basically the straw that broke their back. There was no way they could keep up with that kind of cost. Reagan knew that, so SDI might...

    Poll How open minded are you politically?

    I was 6. So like most liberals, couldn't see beyond my own selfish desires.

    Poll How open minded are you politically?

    Like most people, I was a liberal when I was 6 years old. Then I grew up.

    Poll How open minded are you politically?

    I give new opinions a listen always. But those are very, very rare. Usually the opinions being spouted are just a regurgitation of the same shit that has been going around for decades, or longer.

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    I just want a good space game - someone once said Freelancer 2 and I would be all over that. Hopefully this decade. Arthritis might set in if they take too long. Don't have any skin in the game except my hopes. In the mean time, watching the Anti's vs the Shills is kind of entertaining. A bit...

    Starting WOW - looking for advice and info

    My advice is to pick a high pop PvE server. Even if you are primarily a PvP player. The PvP servers are fagged up something fierce with serious ratio problems. Bilzzard is too retarded to fix it and their transfer costs are fucked. Especially if you like to play alts. If you take one of the...

    Revelation Online

    Yeah, that's the vibe I got. I played a ton of Aion over the years, kept going back. BDO wasn't as good imo. Aion's RvR was much better. These games are a lot of fun at launch when there is a ton of people around and nobody knows all the exploits yet. I'm a sucker for these types of games...

    SWTOR

    Jesus, I thought those were live actors for the first few seconds. F'ing amazing, they are so close to being real. They should make whole movies like this and fire all the prima donna overexposed pisswads I'm tired of looking at (Yeah, I'm talking about you Matt Damon).

    RIFT

    Haven't logged in for quite a while. Too many games still on my list. But I have fond memories of Rift up until I started raiding. And it wasn't like the raiding was bad compared to other games, I just don't care for raiding in modern mmos. Too much youtube video study, hoop jumping and...

    Poll Do you think Trump will actually win the presidency in November?

    First time in all the elections I've been though where I don't have a feel for it. Didn't always guess right in the past but I always had an opinion on who would win. With the chaos of this election, the massive media propaganda and lies by the press (much, much worse than the last 50 years or...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    They will release something eventually, otherwise they will be in lawsuit hell for the rest of their lives. But it doesn't have to be a very good game or even complete to satisfy the courts. Even though the optics look bad, I still give Chris the benefit of the doubt because of his past...

    Trump or Hillary - FOH Poll

    Trump am NONE I don't consider myself a Republican, but have very rarely voted Democrat. The modern Democrat party is totally wacked and JFK was way before my time.

    Variise.. you post a lot in this thread. So much so that I don't read your posts anymore. Don't have the time or inclination since you come off like a shill. Not saying you are, it just gets to be a little bit much. I haven't invested in this game, want it to succeed though. Loved CR's earlier...

    Who will be the next owners of EQ?

    Most mmo gamers understand and agree with you. However, you have to convince the people who have their hands on the money. And all they see is over a decade of failure at the hands of Smedley and his ilk. EQ doesn't even have name brand at this point. I give credit to Smedley for taking a...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Sorry guys, I'm not feelin' it. Reupped my ancient sub a couple of months ago and bought legion. Mainly because you all liked it so much and seemed so excited, it was infectious. And I really tried to get into it, but I failed. The invasions were kind of cool and so is the DH starting zone...

    9/11/2001 - Where were you when Bush knocked down the towers?

    San Diego. Woke up, turned on the TV and the image of the first tower just smoking like that will never leave my head. Was doing contract work at the time so just stayed at home and watched it all play out. Some friends came over but we didn't say much, didn't understand what was going on...

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

    You all are probably right about this game, since the odds are always in your favor when predicting a mmo's failure. But then again this board has the same bunch that slobbered all over Wildstar before it launched. If you want to be the cool kid you have to hate all mmo's, and most of you...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Early in the game Iksar Monks were the coolest. Only other class I wanted to play. But back then the 6 months plus to get my SK to level 60 was just too much to repeat for a different class.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Does anyone know if they intend to do something about auction houses on low pop servers? Have toons on all over the place, don't remember why I did it (played for a few months years and years ago). During the invasion events I leveled a bunch of toons. Highest level toon is on a locked (atm)...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    This thread is becoming like the EQ Next/Brad/Pantheon threads.. a lot of rehash over the same old topics over and over, because the game itself seems to be on a slow road to nowhere. Personally, I think this game has a better chance of being released. But that probably makes me a white knight...

    Black Desert

    There is a fourth type. I play a lot of mmo's casually, for a month or two at a time and then move on. Only to come back a year or so later. I didn't like BDO enough to keep at it, but it does have some fun elements - combat, graphics, etc.

    May users have a personal thread in the rickshaw?

    Ok, that's a BIG BANNER. So you made me log in. I voted yes but honestly I couldn't care less about this. The RR is like a nude beach, the first time you go there for curiosity. And that is the last time because you realize there isn't anything there worth looking at.

    Does nearly everyone under 24 seem autistic to you?

    Just saw this thread.... Kind of sad. Guys (and gals), every parent says the same thing about the kids younger than them. But then again.. maybe it's all Zika.

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

    Yeah, there is a ton of good art out there selling for nothing, and desperate talent making it. Biggest reason I left the biz, some really great artists whore themselves for pennies. As do most of the people in gaming. If you're not an owner, bend over and give it away.
