I've quit WoW twice now, and after talking to a girl in work, ended up buying the Burning Crusade. Goodbye social life (for the third time) :p

Oh well sometimes you win sometimes you lose in the end ull be playing World of Warcraft till the end :D

WoW is probably my favorite game, but christ, every time I read some post by some jerkoff that treats the game like it's a JOB, I just want to make a peon cry. Hate to break it to some of you, but there are guilds out there that do end-game content that aren't all hardcore 'this-class-must-spec-this-way-to-raid-or-GTFO' guilds. Usually people with crazy stuff like... real lives, and whatnot aren't going to force anyone else to do anything, and usually aren't a bunch of ###### like some guilds I've been in.

Thats a real good point you have made there. Some guilds are just so hardout in the game that I think they have just forgotten that it is just a game and that your ment to have fun, not to be a "bunch of ######". There is still pro's and con's to guilds being like that, for instance you dont wont a guild packed with people who are just going to come on when ever they feal like it and get into kara and think that they are going to win every drop they need. Were there is the guild which is still ruffly the same but more harsh when it comes to who gets into kara and who just dont make the cut, generaly when this happens you will down all the bosses in the raid and get the gear you need/wont. So either way it is almost a win win situation:D

That's kinda how we are. We are a full raiding guild, (been doing Kara for over 2 months now, have it on clear) but are 80% made up of friends and/or family. We are very laid back guild, we do not expect you to spec any certain way unless your spec just plain sucks, in which case we will explain why it sucks and help to respec a better way :p We do expect everyone in our guild to be respectful of others, do not use the word "gay" to explain someone or a class (we do have a couple of homosexual members) and thats about it. Its very relaxed but fun.

Those guilds are out there, they are just far and few between now.. Most guilds have become color blind, the only color they see is PURPLE.. and it's like the ring in LOTR, screw everyone else, we need to get that ring NOW, I dont care how just do it!!!

I just sold my account for a few hundred dollars to kick the habit. I've quit probably almost a dozen times now, I can't say I've been more addicted to anything else in my entire life.

Yeah very addictive game. I would have to say the time that your most addicted to play is when your not, e.g you just sold your account and now your probily really tempted to play, by saying this what I mean is once you start playing is the second your hooked for life :D

This is my current UI, I dumped Bartender3 and cyCircled because of some bugs, and I find the default action bars just fine...

Btw, I'm not using the bow on that pic, i was just trying it out since I'm a Beast Mastery specced Hunter, and with that bow I get an attack speed of 1.74. :p

Wich Party Frames are That, Look quit awesome i got aG_Unitframes , but cant nothing make similiar like that someone help me ?

Does anyone know a way to set-up a macro to switch your target to the Triangle marked mob? In kara I usually grab Skull and Triangle, and I need to get some hate on Triangle, but usually the priests shackle and triangle are standing on top of each other, and often I have targeted the shackled mob and broke it without grabbing the Triangle. So is there some way to target the triangle without clicking by a macro or something?

no sorry there is no way to target a specific mark.. At least not currently in the game

just asking about the conflict going on with Phantasmorph and Smeltn, was your guild I just want to make a peon cry. Also how come Phantasmorph has a problem with serious guilds in World of Warcraft?

I...don't think there's a conflict? I certainly didn't mean it that way. I was just saying, some of the guys with that mentality annoy the **** out of me. When I said that about 'make a peon cry' I was talking about cancelling my account...you know, that little graphic with the crying peon when you cancel.

I don't have a problem with "serious" guilds in World of Warcraft, in so much that its a GAME and I play games to have fun and relax. I was in two really fun guilds that slowly changed into hardcore raiding guilds, and I watched people I liked become purple-addicted jerkoffs in a matter of months. And other good people blown off because they didn't have the time or inclination to treat this GAME like a job. If people are into that sorta thing, more power to them, I just don't see the point. Maybe I see it differently than some, but there is a social aspect that is essential for MMOs, and I don't want to have to sit and watch barely literate garbage spam up my /gchat just because such-and-such clown might be a jackass, but he's geared well. That's just not something I want to deal with.

It's all a moot point anyways, since a lot better games will be coming out and I'll probably be canceling my wow account when they do.

That makes alot of sence now. Sorry about the quessing of conflict going on.

Also in replying to the comment left with Nicholas-c "it was only a matter of time im using trial help me!!!" I quess this is were your hooked in playing the game for a very long time. I suggest to you is to head down to your local gaming store and get yourself a copy of World of Warcraft and the expansion The Burning Crusade, and be in for a long time of fun and enjoyment:D

Wich Party Frames are That, Look quit awesome i got aG_Unitframes , but cant nothing make similiar like that someone help me ?

The UI frames I've used on that screenshot are also ag_UnitFrames but with a special theme pack, aUF_Layouts. If you want the same effect as mine, choose yaBF (or at least something like that, I don't quite remember since I'm not using them anymore) from the menu, and make the border, health bar and mana bar colors black.

How do you level up fast? My friend said he could get to level 10 in 45 minutes where as it takes me several days to do.

Your friend talks ****.

Follow the natural progression of the quests (starting area > local town will get you to level 10), update your skills (every even numbered level) and take a trade skill which will give you a boost to your combat skills.

    • First time clicking on a Sayan Sen article after he started making clickbait, vague headlines recently. Didn't read, just came here to say the headline doesn't look like very cheap, vague clickbait this time. Are you okay?
    • Good review, and yeah the benchmark breakdown is pretty clear but also a little messy in a good way. It’s kinda interesting to see where the RX 9070 GRE slides in between the 7800 XT and the 9070 XT , especially when it comes to AI tasks and Blender style workloads. The side by side with Nvidia’s RTX 5070 and 4070 makes it feel obvious just how competitive the mid range GPU scene has gotten lately, and that’s great for creators and gamers too since you can pick based on your priorities rather than only chasing one single thing.
    • That's it. I finally uninstalled Firefox because they often keep pushing buggy updates, only to test them later and make users suffer. No longer is it my alternative browser to Edge. What a waste of energy. Firefox is bad for the environment, just like Chrome (wasting RAM/energy).
    • Microsoft Weekly: new Surface, Windows 11 26H2, and more by Taras Buria This week's news recap is here, with Microsoft announcing Windows 11 version 26H2, launching new Surface devices powered by Snapdragon X2 processors, GTA VI preorder date and cover art, fresh Windows 11 preview builds, a quirky phone-sized e-reader with a physical dial, and more. Quick links: Windows 10 and 11 Windows Insider Program Updates are available Reviews are in Gaming news Great deals to check Windows 11 and Windows 10 Here, we talk about everything happening around Microsoft's latest operating system in the Stable channel and preview builds: new features, removed features, controversies, bugs, interesting findings, and more. And, of course, you may find a word or two about older versions. Windows 11 version 26H2 is now official. Alongside Windows 11's new preview builds released this week, Microsoft confirmed version 26H2, which is coming later this year as an enablement package based on the same platform as versions 24H2 and 25H2. A newly published blog post details what IT admins should do to prepare for the upcoming launch. Next, we have new Windows 11 bugs. Users report that this month's security updates for Windows 11 cause all sorts of issues, including BitLocker bugs, OneDrive issues, black screens of death, and third-party integration in Office apps. Microsoft has not confirmed those yet, but it acknowledged other issues with its operating system. What Microsoft has confirmed is a bug where Recycle Bin delete prompts display internal file names instead of actual ones, and a year-old Windows JScript compatibility bug caused by security-focused engine changes. Moving to more positive news, Microsoft and Adobe are working on improving Windows performance in popular creative apps like Photoshop. Thanks to SPGO optimizations, users can expect up to 20% better performance. Finally, we have a few useful articles that can help you recover your PC or make it perform better. For one, we published a guide detailing what to do if your computer cannot boot after a clean Windows 11 install. There are two important steps you can try to get your system back to working in no time. Additionally, there is a more detailed guide on various CPU performance modes that could notably improve performance. Windows Insider Program Here is what Microsoft released for Windows Insiders this week: Builds Canary Channel Builds 28120.2315 and 29613.1000 These two builds include a new built-in audio driver, improvements to audio Settings, and more. Dev Channel Builds 26300.8697 and 26220.8690 Not much is available here. Some File Explorer improvements, Start menu enhancements, bug fixes, and more. However, build 26300.8697 is now officially marked as version 26H2. Updates are available This section covers software, firmware, and other notable updates (released and coming soon) delivering new features, security fixes, improvements, patches, and more from Microsoft and third parties. This week, Microsoft announced its newest Surface devices powered by Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon X2 processors. There is the 12th-gen Surface Pro and the 8th-gen Surface Laptop. Both devices feature little to no visual differences compared to their predecessors from 2024, and most changes hide inside, including a better processor, faster graphics, enhanced NPUs, and more. The Surface Laptop also received a new haptic trackpad. Mozilla is currently working on a major Firefox redesign, and earlier this week, it published a roadmap of upcoming features and highlights of the upcoming "Project Nova" rework. Files, one of the best file managers for Windows 10 and 11, has been updated in the Preview channel with a long-requested feature. Tree View is finally available in version 4.1.4, allowing you to quickly browse deeply nested folders without leaving the main view. In addition, the update improved the Windows Fonts folder, allowing you to preview each font without opening the default viewer. Rufus, another useful Windows 11 utility, also received a notable update. Version 4.15 arrived as beta with important fixes for silent Windows 11 installation. It also includes patches for ARM-based Windows PCs, OneDrive removal improvements, and more. Here are other updates and releases you may find interesting: Microsoft faces shareholder lawsuit over masking AI costs and slowing Azure growth Microsoft now allows you to tweak Visual Studio to new extremes Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations Microsoft will finally let you sign in to Edge with a Google account Here are the latest drivers and firmware updates released this week: NVIDIA 610.62 with support for Empulse and various fixes. Reviews are in Here is the hardware and software we reviewed this week Earlier this week, we reviewed the DuRoBo Krono, a portable, phone-sized e-reader with some interesting physical controls. This device has an Apple Watch-like dial for page turning, frontlight adjustment, and more. Software is simple and no-nonsense, but it also lacks some useful features and customization. Overall, the device proved interesting, but not flawless. On the gaming side Learn about upcoming game releases, Xbox rumors, new hardware, software updates, freebies, deals, discounts, and more. Forza Horizon 6 received two big updates this week. Alongside the Series 2 content update, developers pushed plenty of bug fixes and balancing tweaks. However, they also had to acknowledge the Eliminator CR-farming exploit and shut down the online mode temporarily. Luckily, only a few days later, another fix arrived, which re-enabled Eliminator and patched the exploit. Microsoft announced new games for Game Pass subscribers. Those include EA Sports FC 26, Junkster, Call of Duty: Vanguard, Abyssus, RV There Yet?, and more. Some existing games are leaving the catalog, so be sure to check out the full list here. New games are also available for GeForce NOW subscribers, and they include Embers of the Uncrowned Demo, Aphelion, Megastore Simulator, OPERATOR, Citizen Sleeper, and more. Rockstart Games had plenty of GTA-related news this week. For one, the company gave GTA V players another free update. Those still playing the game on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are no longer required to pay $40 to upgrade to the latest-gen version. More importantly, Rockstar Games revealed the GTA VI cover art and announced the preorder date. The Epic Games Store is giving away two games: Citizen Sleeper and Roboeat.
