    Here"s the deal. The person who took these photos is trying to say they were taken in Miami, USA. I"m thinking that looks nothing like Miami, at least no part I have ever seen. Does anyone recognize any of the landmarks in these shots? Any E-detectives out there have an idea of how I could...

    Thought I mentioned earlier, but the girl in the Portland pics is my ex-wife"s friend, who is Thai as well. My wife photoshopped some pics from that set and MMS-ed them to me to make it look like her friend met her in Miami. I found the original set on an external hard drive and made this thread...

    I anyone cares, here"s what finally happened. - I found out all this shit in early December - she gave me the ring back, I sold it back to the same jeweler for $500, huge loss but oh well - moved out in late December - divorce proceeding was a simplified dissolution, no kids, no alimony...

    She admitted everything when I confronted her with the evidence. She claimed she never cheated on me but I don"t really believe it. The reasons she gave for leaving the country were "she just wanted to travel" and that "sometimes I didn"t pay enough attention to her". She cried a bit, but not...

    update: - We"re getting an uncontested divorce for about $1.5k. It was about the cheapest I could find from a reputable local law firm. The cheaper online divorces you have to draft and submit forms yourself. - She gave me the ring back and I am selling it back to the jeweler to pay for...

    Have you been there? The downtown is more modern than most US cities. Yeh there are some poor places in rural Thailand, but Bangkok and the tourist areas are really nice. Khao San Road road (in the movie The Beach) has Starbucks and Subway. It is nothing like the movie depicts.

    Ehh no. I met her in the US at school, not in Thailand. Her parents are fairly well-off by either US or Thai standards - they pay for her school over here and even gave us a house in a decent neighborhood in Bangkok for a wedding present. Great. Thanks for the advice. =)

    Wife actually. I don"t wanna post too much detail, but this is what happened: - Right now, she is supposed to be in Thailand visiting her parents. However, someone saw her on campus about a week ago. She told them she was going to Portland. Then I got suspicious and started looking into some...

    Here"s what happened in more detail: - About a year ago, I was sent some cropped versions through MMS, which strips out the camera data and reduces pic size/quality. Some alleged "yeah we"re having fun in Miami pics". I"m not sure if AT&T MMS auto-resizes images, or loading them onto Iphone...

    Oh great thanks very much. I knew you guys wouldn"t fail. Yeah the license plate didn"t prove anything since there"s tons of tourists in Florida, but the pics of Portland definitely prove it. As for the reason, it isn"t stalking. The person who took these pics used it as "proof" they were in...

    Oh one more pic. Those type of trees do not exist in Florida. The crowd shot has a bunch of pasty looking people. I"ve never seen a bridge and waterway like that in Miami. I could be wrong though and would like some confirmation (again, discounting the license plate, which is not proof by itself).

    Nothing to add, except the way the pic of her is taken is like one of those POV porn films.

    Yeah Galiem. You are in decent shape and seem like a fairly average looking dude. That girl is 21 (if she isn"t lying about it) but looks near 40. If she was the nicest person ever you could *maybe* justify it, but she sounds completely psychotic. Out of interest, what type of diet do you two...

    The average gamer won"t spend $1000 to play a game. The most common cards around now are still Gforce 7 and 8 series. 4 and 3 year old tech respectively. Steam Hardware Survey Feel free to cite a better source for gauging the "average gamer PC" though. I wouldn"t mind seeing alternate...

    Target specs: 40-60FPS in single group or solo situation on a 3-year old PC that was "average" at the time of purchase or a 4-year old machine that was "high-end" at the time of release. Anything more and you will have no hope of WoW level subs (if that is your intent). The WoW min specs are...

    Just to point out, EVE is one of the most successful MMOGs if you are judging solely by subs. It is currently 7th or 8th in subs in the world, and is one of the very few games whose subs are constantly increasing. http://www.mmogchart.com/Chart2.html

    After coming back to WoW for a bit and doing hefty amounts of both PVE and PVP, here"s a few things IMHO are outdated and should be fixed. Yeah WOW is still the most playable MMOG on the market, but I think it could be even better if they either changed or fixed these: - Mana ... get rid of...

    It is probably expecting too much, but preferably it should be advantageous to fight while mounted. If I was sitting on the back of a giant lizard, most likely I wouldn"t dismount to fight an unmounted Orc. - Disallow mounts in dungeons and the entire game won"t be mounted combat. -...

    Yeah an algorithm to automatically scale all encounters to be equally difficult with 5, 10, or 20 players would be impossible. If someone does invent such a thing it would be pretty damn impressive. Also, for the sake of discussion, if you did the "must complete Encounter X to Gain level Y"...

    Yeah can we get over the BOE on everything? BOP/BOE should be limited to the best and hardest to obtain items and that is it. If you want incentive for items to leave the economy put in Disenchanting/Salvaging. Who cares if the level 10 crafting market is flooded with a certain item? Make all...

    I"m still subbed to Warhammer, but I"ll say this: Mythic will never be a threat to Blizzard because their engineering process is inept. Exhibit A, the latest 1.2 patch: - broke as many things as it fixed - introduced server side lag that makes RVR lag worse than it did at launch -...

    ASoFaI would make a hell of an RTS/Civ game. Model it after theGame of Thrones Board Game, which is sort of like Risk, only much, much better. As mentioned, I don"t really see ASoFaI fitting into your standard EQ/WoW clone MMO. It is more about politics and armies.

    Well WAR has produced a few things that will be standard in future MMOs. I assume 38 is looking at them: - public quests and PVP quests - much better instanced PVP scenarios than WoW (and yes some bad ones) - public groups/warbands that auto-advertise when you enter an area - no mana (mana...

    Just to offer some anecdotal evidence to the contrary, my roommate and several friends work at EA Tiburon. They mostly all enjoy their jobs and are paid pretty well. Yeah turnover rate is high, but from what I"ve heard, so is the inept employee ratio. Gotta weed through a lot of people to find...

    Sam you should probably consider WAR instead since it has open-world PVP as a means of advancement and end-game, which would seem to be more what you are looking for. In many ways the design of WoW will limit you due to instance caps and the only Battleground which will fit your whole squad does...

    Stuff that imho should be mandatory in a next gen fantasy MMOG UI: - Mana Conserve and Decursive functionality - Synced Meters for Damage/Healing/Tanking/etc. I never understood why these aren"t included in MMOG UI"s. I"m sure developers have their own to do parsing for balance? Why can"t...

    Digo, there would be no sliding scale, just fixed content. Bring how ever many you want (up to the raid cap). Back in WoW when you could take multiple groups to Strat/UBRS/etc... was that really hurting anyone? If you brought 20 people to Strat you probably weren"t getting loot and very little...

    I remember that thread as well Tropics. There was actually a few good discussions on the Sigil games board occasionally. Anyway, I think the basic idea of no arbitrary difference between raid or group is a good one. Just invite however many people you like and go do stuff (up to the maximum...

    Since it was mentioned. For the love of Jesus, Allah, Buddha, and Babe Ruth, please Curt (or whoever else is reading) ... no consumables. Adding an additional hour of farming for every hour of raiding is one of the worst mechanics ever. Fuck flasks. Not to mention it keeps thousands of asian...

    Well good choice imho going with that graphics engine. Seems pretty low system-spec friendly from the screenies. The U3 engine would have been a huge mistake if they are looking for a large player base.
