    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    I talked to a lot of people just doing tradeskills and the chat is currently a nightmare. Especially with people who are used to modern chat and don't factor in easy to remember, spell, and type names when naming their character. My characters that I expected tells on were two syllables or less...

    Pluribus

    She needs to be various levels of unlikeable to get people to sympathize more with how "great" the hive mind might be. Then they will slowly pull back the curtain, like @TJT says, and during that time she becomes more relatable to a wider audience.

    Keyboards & Mice

    I think I used the Logitech G600 for 15+ years of WoW and it worked great (2 mice over that time period). If anything, the ring finger button was the most uncomfortable part of it and for normal games the thumb buttons could cause a bit of hand fatigue on the thumb (after 6+ hour gaming...

    The Astronomy Thread

    Could be China's Spacesail network that they are launching to compete with Starlink (or to try to force their internet rules on more people). https://spacenews.com/china-resumes-launches-for-thousand-sails-constellation-cas-space-launches-new-international-payload/

    Pluribus

    I've given his work numerous chances, including Watchmen, and they go from mediocre to horrible. So yeah, pretty much written his projects off as not my thing. This show, on the other hand, looks to be traveling into the Vince Gilligan can do no wrong territory (although, yeah, it's way too...

    Oh? Sounds interesting, lets look it up on IMDB...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    unfortunate While I like having control over my own hardware, I would certainly look into switching to SteamOS if they release it for general use (hopefully before windows 10 stops getting security updates). Otherwise I will probably stay on Win10 for another decade. I play too many old games...

    Tradeskills: You can skill up on failed combines on tradeskills last I leveled up tradeskills (last long test). I think they only changed gathering profs to make no skill up per fail, as I am pretty sure someone told me they skilled up JC using the wire trick this test (manually put in the next...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    I meant in EQ during Velious, but Wizards in MnM get the best/most ports (or so I have been told), so yeah, it's much easier to explore everything in this game too. For Vale in particular you need see invis up.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Being one of the first people, at least on the server, to see WW is still a core gaming memory (even if I wasn't a raider and never saw NToV during Velious). A sneaky druid with egress could bypass a lot of the roadblocks, so was able to access every outdoor zone before even starting the xpac...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    You could still use old flying but still required getting the achievement half way through the xpac, right?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    What did they change about dragonriding/new flying? In the Dragonfurryfucker xpac it was great and much faster than old flying.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    That $80 a year has to be some deal they had going on. It was $10 a month years ago when they force added it to the Hulu Live subscription for "free" then months later jacked the price of Hulu by $10.

    Make a mule on a second account and stock it with molds! Start as a LW/Tailor/Chanter/Survivalist for 1 free 6 slot bag, then go see shady gnome for a second.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    That's not really a vendor issue though! There is a forge next to the woodworkers area in the docks, just to the east of the portal from north gate to the docks. Don't remember the vendor situation there though.
