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

    Perfect example of this that I can think of would be the Runebranded Girdle in Sebilis off of Krup frogs. They wereextremelyrare, yet still extremely valuable and useful. Not quite Dragon haste level, but the next best thing IIRC. One I particularly remember running across was fighting back to...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    No kidding, right? You basically have a customer walking in and validating their entire business model (afterlife / hocus pocus). She hopes to have netted a client for life!

    Ebay: Shipping to an APO?

    Always ship Priority Mail to APO. That guarantees air shipping. There are a few nightmare stories of people shipping parcel post (cheapest option) and it taking weeks to arrive. Not sure if they slap it on a boat from time to time or what. For the very little extra cost, its worth it.

    Ebay: Shipping to an APO?

    Yes, and it always pops up as delivered for me when, in fact, its still days out from me receiving it. The last point the United States Postal service handles it is when its being handed off to the Mil Air. That is when they tick their "delivered" status. Its usually not even crossed the pond at...

    Ebay: Shipping to an APO?

    I am a contractor, but have used an APO address for the last ~14 years while working overseas. APO is considered a US address and costs the same as domestic shipping. In my experience, however, tracking is only valid for the US portion of the journey. When it finally hits air freight, its...

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    Pretty much everything from GoD forward has +shielding, etc stats on it. (Started in PoP) It will be interesting to see what levels and gear you need to pick up to do this. My self buff only 95 SK can just auto-attack kill all of PoTime (no healers / no mercs).

    EQMac Shutting down

    Most of EQ Mac (including Temerity) have scattered across different servers like Test, Xegony, PEQ, P99, or simply quit. The "community" is no more, imo.

    HDTVs

    This is sound advice. By the time it becomes more mainstream and you actually have some media available for it, the technology will have leaped monumentally over what is available on the market right now. Not to mention, significantly cheaper! I burn benjamins myself on stupid shit all the...

    Completely unrelated. Where did you grab that picture? That is a picture of Doha, Qatar (where I am currently working). I have taken very similar pics myself at the same location!

    Windows 8

    I think for me the question is, why the fuckshould Iupgrade from 7 to 8.1? (even with Classic Start) What am I really getting out of 8.1 that is so groundbreaking besides a nice new search function that I might use once every few months? Honest question.

    NAS for torrents

    I've got a 2010 model 5 Bay Synology NAS. It is absolutely badass. Not a cheap solution, but they are amazing. I am about 80% full on a 5x2TB RAID5 array. Waiting on the 4TB drives to drop in price a bit more so I can start swapping out. I love me some 1080p DTS-HD movies!

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    I really wish they would implement EQ2 style mentoring system into EQ1. Its quick and simple, drops your level and simply scales all your worn items and normal level spells / abilities down. No need to juggle new spell bar setups or all that other bullshit. I just dont think EQ1 gets that kind...

    Buying a car?

    No shit. There are about a billion other cars I would buy at the $95k pricepoint! Last on the list would be that piece of shit. GTR, 911, M5, etc.. the list goes on.

    Storing large DVD collection

    Hah! That's a good point. What made it even more annoying was when you actually did decide to rewatch and old film and here you are forced to watch trailers for some shit movie you have already seen. Cant say I recall seeing that forced on the few BluRay titles I own.

    Yep, wireless is crap for streaming HD. Add in some DTS or DTS-HD and forget it. Cat6 through my whole house and never looked back!

    Storing large DVD collection

    I actually spent a few hours beginning to rip them onto my NAS for streaming, but simply gave up. Takes far too long and I can just torrent what I want in minutes. I actually trashed hundreds of DVDs. Not worth all of the space / hassle. I purchase only a few BluRay titles a year for...

    EQ Never

    Just like EQ2's griffon transport at release then. Had physically travel to these towers and do mini quests at each to be able to use the griffons, which would fly you (not instantly either) to the other towers in the zone that you had previously unlocked.

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    AA has some insane modifier that scales down until around ~4000AA. You can easily get 1AA per kill on Test server (additional 100% xp bonus) at the lower AA levels.

    EQ Never

    I would argue we lost a lot of that focus by all the forum hopping drama. Hell, I had been a moderate poster on FoH since the beginning but missed all of the forum closure drama. One day I went to have a look and got the "That's it I'm out" blank webpage. For a few months, my Google searches...

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    I have a 95 SK with about 8k AA, but my Warrior is 65 doing the progression thing in Return to Glory. My SK has full T4 VoA and the droppable upgrades I have seen are marginal at best (with exception of the Ancient Cloak of Flames, etc). I also have a 95 Necro in VoA raid gear with about 7k AA...

    I had only started on the server in August and apped to Temerity in September. I've no clue about the previous drama, but what I saw in that time wasnt just raid training, there were assholes training normal XP zones and XP groups regardless of guild tags. Torrid had posted YouTube videos in the...

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    I've been screwing around on Test the last few days. My old 65 warrior I quit in PoP is playing with the progression guild (Return to Glory) and I also copied my 95 / 8k AA SK over. I was pretty floored to find that my SK could solo PoTime. Legit solo, no merc, no box healer. I'm sure people...

    EQMac Now Free to Play

    It's been posted 1000x, but AK server has very old code and missing nearly all PoP encounter patches / fixes. As in PoTime is version 1.0 with an unkillable Quarm, broken loot tables (no BPs drop, only 2 items per god, many items missing stats), no 85% rule for entry (everyone needs a key), etc...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Beautiful car. It's got the same engine as my X6 and the exhaust sounds amazing!! Is that Carbon Black? (M exclusive color) I still want to hear what the $4500 Bang & Olufsen stereo sounds like!
