Ok, ok this is getting heavy.

We need to all take a step back and watch some footage of Glenn Beck crying.

Sarvis, Your in a bar talking to a lady. She asks you if her jeans make her ass look big. It does. What do you say? If you have any interest in continuing to talk to this girl you will probably lie, or ("I love big butts and I can not lie.") Point is you tailor your response to the social ...

Well if the mob is already dead by the time it lands, what exactly is the problem? I'd leave tendrils alone, the procs it has now are way more useful than a random flux proc would be. Sorry man, just don't see any reason to mess with something that as far as I can tell works just dandy in the situat...

As a non-smoker I'm against banning it. As the husband of a smoker who I can't seem to convince to quit, I'd be for it.

I'm all for being active and involved, I just can't help but get the impression that a lot of these new 9-12 goers are just jumping on the band wagon because Glenn Beck can be so 'intense'. None of the people that have come in have had much to contribute to discussions, most recite the 9-12 commandm...

I have had a steady stream of people in my shop today printing out 9-12 project flyers, cards, bookmarks, signs...I'm actually rather blown away at the organization these new local groups seem to have in such a short period of time. Is this really as big as it appears here or am I just stuck in some...

Remarkable story, thanks for posting that. I work in the printing industry and I must say this comes as a bit of a shock considering paper prices have nearly doubled in the last five years. Everyone I've spoken to in the paper industry said it was rising fuel costs which is probably the case. At any...

It might make future incidents more hostile, but this kind of international response is warranted and needed. Companies who own these vessels paying out ransoms obviously isn't helping matters, and has probably created more incentive for pirate groups. My guess is that security on these vessels is m...

You should watch Fear of Girls and then track down a PLP, your attitude about women seems to fit the lifestyle. Maybe your chaotic neutral?

Botef

I think a more elegant solution would be removing the level cap on scarsdale all together so that people can actually assist a new player instead of having to walk them through the newbie zone via tells.

Botef

A flurry skill for rangers would be pretty cool. Make it consume 20-30 moves like EW, give priests a reason to use vigs in situations other than rogues moving corpse piles.

Botef

lol at Zeitgeist. Lets start with religious conspiracy, move into 9-11 and end with big brother so we appeal to the greatest number of tin foilers.

Botef

This is sad news. I just want to express a huge thanks to all those in RPQ for some great memories over the years. You guys put in a lot of hard work, and you will be greatly missed.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Nobel-prize winning economist Paul Krugman said in remarks published on Monday that the latest U.S. Treasury bailout program is nearly certain to fail, triggering a sense of personal despair. U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner on Monday unveiled a plan aimed at persuadin...

Just a FYI but the thread title still says the 11th. Would hate to have half no shows cause the date change wasn't noticeable.

DO YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS LARRY? DO YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU FIND A STRANGER IN THE ALPS?

Botef

Lofuckingl man, if this isn't a Sarvisism I don't know what is.

You know what's interesting? The same people who think -FILL IN THE BLANK- without being critical of it are the same ones who seem to be religious.

Botef

Wow Sarvis, just wow.

Chanting only ever gets overburdening for me when you throw a 4th spell into the picture. I can handle a pretty heavy chanting load just fine but throw in 3 or more melee that require haste/globe, plus blur/scale and everything else it does start to get a little taxing. Managing 3 spells is great, 4...

Can't say I've ever been particularly displeased with the landing rate of flux. Every now and then it gets a bit insane and just won't land, but that just seems to be bad luck and happens with any spell. I notice those freak fail rates with feeb, ray, wither, etc. Sometimes it lands easy, sometimes ...

I say we invent a new kind of currency. We'll call it Torilmark at a value of 10 plat per torilmark, and start handing it out to mobs.

Botef

One thing I find rather humorous and even a bit disturbing is that dscale robes went for about the same price that lupine did, not to mention that there were three lupines on at one time.

Botef

Chanting that wasn't so bad, I'd much rather chant that again than SM! 3 Hour spell roll ftw!

Botef

Put me down for Illus or Chanter.

Botef

Hey Teflor, suck my cock? Why you feel a need to ridicule a persons intelligence as a closing to all your arguments is beyond me. I posted that line 4 times as a tongue in cheek jab at how many times the article repeated the same statement.

Botef

Perhaps a more elegant solution would be to make Kiryan subform for politics, a Sarvis subforum for strippers and tramp stamps, and a Thillindel sub forum for ideas Shev doesn't need to bother himself reading.

Botef

I probably just should have let this thread sink but I thought I'd also ad to the above by saying this article is quite a laugh. The article is claiming Obama lied about raising taxes with the comparison to Bush 'being mistaken' on WMD. It then goes on to say the taxes only apply to people who make ...

Botef

Oh absolutely, I have no argument with that although I think it is debatable how much that trickle down really impacts the other 95% of the country.

One thing I do find humorous is the role reversal since the election. It speaks volumes in regard to the polarization of American politics.

Botef

Instead, the figure represents Obama's total efforts at deficit reduction, including tax hikes [of more than $1 trillion] on families making over $250,000 a year.

I can't find an accurate % of how many American families earn 250k or more a year. Does anybody on Toril even make that much?

Adding to the complexity of dicing in any capacity isn't a good thing. Too much room for error and not enough time to sit around and make sure you got every bid 100% accurate. It already is a big challenge to dice. You have to sit there, compile your bids from mwrites, check kegors DB and cross refe...

The only flip to the cool down I see is that it would allow Psi's do runs faster than just about any class.

Botef

Im with gormal on this, they don't need much changing. I also agree with the cool down idea as it adds a more dynamic element to game play than the lag currently associated with it. If dominate was going to be modified, maybe it could be changed to work on a point based system like undead points so ...

I ran into this again this morning on a level 13 necro with default condense settings. Three rounds of delay between spells after casting chill touch.

I don't think the issue here is the crash itself as much as the scope of the class. I really doubt necros were allowed to eq pets with the intention of decking them out in 50+ dam rogue gear, and if reimbursement from crashes were allowed you can bet your balls that people would be doing that.

Botef

For one necros/lichs would probably have to be downgraded. I don't know if anyone has really done much testing but I suspect the damage output from a pet geared with a legitimate damage set is pretty intense. If your gear was reimbursable you'd see people like Ross and myself roaming around with wig...

A big distinction is rares that are easy to check vs ones that are not. I have no qualms with rares that require a little effort to check for the most part. Whats bothersome are easy to check, at-boot rares that everybody wants, particularly if they are locatable. A good example are the IC rares whi...

I'd certainly be happy to spend two nights doing it in pieces, but I dont know how effective that would be. It would be a nice option for groups that only make it half way though. Part of the problem is getting 25+ people at keys at a specified time, especially when a handful of them are in conflict...
