Well, I haven't posted in a while, but;

My guild is now 5th Horde side for progression on Twisting Nether US, downing 6 new bosses in the past 2 1/2 weeks. Rage, Anetheron, Kaz'Rogal (last night), Naj'entus, Supremus and Shade of Akama. Surprisingly all of those fights are rather easy, the Kaz'Rogal trash kinda sucks compared to rage/anetheron but the Azgalor trash is really a bitch.

We're going back to SSC this week for Lady Vashj and then next week after that we'll be going to Kael'Thas.

It should be fun, :]]

How many can there be?

Cairne is the newest (though I believe they are making another new PvE one or is that EU?) and they have one guild working on him...if a realm is behind them that says alot.

Dinged 20 last night. :)

Grats. Keep in mind that when the next patch is released mounts will be available at level 30 for 35g (compared to level 40 and 90g at the moment) so depending on how quickly you level you may want to save your gold for a bit longer.

Well the reason you have so many mod folders is because you're using Standalone libraries which installs everything but they're only actually loaded if they're required by mod. (mods that are load on demand have a negligible impact on performance, thankfully)

Oh and completely unrelated but which Vista theme are you using?

Um.. I have enough gold as to where I can spend a bit extra and get the 35 Gold mount.. :laugh:

Wow (no pun intended) has anybody noticed that this thread alone has 200,000+ views! :o

Yes we have and no I'm not visiting Drawland.

So it sucks having 18 people sign up for a raid, getting hopes up that were so close to full 25 mans as a guild, and only have 9 show up. :(

I started the other day, and dinged 14 last night, also hit Journeyman Tailor. Level 50! :D

I've been doing a ton of wandering. Being a BElf, I started in the northern area of the Eastern Continent, and I've traveled to the Undercity, Orgrimmar, through the Barrens, to Booty Bay and a few locales there, and I'm now holed up in Thunderbluff. I really have to start finishing some quests though [back to the Ghostlands...], cause I have about 23/25 logged.

Weird problem though: When I first installed the client, I wasn't able to connect to the server I play on. I could get to any other one, but not Mug'thol. Then after a couple repairs of the game, it worked. But trying to log on today, it doesn't again... -_- Any ideas on why this is happening?

[edit] Actually, now... It just sits at 'Connecting' and then fails. Unless this is a server maintenance time or something. When do they usually do that?

Blizzard's RND can go screw itself. 12+ kills of Kaz'rogal and no shield.

lol. Don't worry Illi will drop his shield every week, untill all prot warriors, all prot pallies, all holy pallies, all ret pallies, all arm warrios, all fury warrs, and all shaman each have one. And then continue to drop. :p Or it'll be like Kaz and you'll be screwed.

Is your account going to be deleted if you don't play for some time? I've read that Blizzard will try to keep our inactive characters for at least 6 months, but it does not say anything about inactive accounts. Anyone has more info?

I logged in after a long, long absence (6-7 months) after I canceled off my account, and all my toons were there.. so..

i e-mailed blizzard with this question when i had to put my account on hold for 4 months and this was their reply:

At this time, Blizzard has no plans to delete or "expire" characters, even if an account is deactivated or cancelled. This means that all of your characters and their progress will be retained on our servers. Should you decide to return to World of Warcraft and reactivate your account, you will be able to pick up your characters again wherever you left off.

    • Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026 by Aditya Tiwari Google Gemini has been around for over three years. The AI chatbot started its journey back in 2023 (as Bard) when ChatGPT was already a talk of the town. However, it quickly attracted criticism after misrepresenting facts about the James Webb Space Telescope. The search giant spent a year fine-tuning Bard before rebranding the chatbot and its underlying generative AI model to Gemini, drawing inspiration from NASA's first human spaceflight program. Note that Bard was initially powered by LaMDA and PaLM 2; Google has since added several new features and integrations to Gemini. That said, there is scope for improvement and a gap for new features. I have been using Gemini for a while now and have realized that the chatbot lacks several features, making it harder for me to research across topics. These are mostly function-over-form updates that can improve the overall experience. Delete individual messages from a conversation Image via DepositPhotos.com One good thing about Gemini is that it can maintain context throughout the conversation. But things might get chaotic when you want to ask a related question, but don't want it to be part of your conversation in the long run. You can't ask that related question in a fresh chat because Gemini will lose the active conversation context of what you're trying to research. If Google allowed you to delete individual question/answer pairs, you could simply ask about a sub-topic and remove it from the conversation to create a smooth flow of important stuff. Offline mode Image via DepositPhotos.com A big pain of using Gemini daily is that everything loads from the cloud. It takes time for your chats to appear, and you can't view your conversation history while offline. To get a better idea, you can open the Gemini app and see how it looks without an internet connection. While Gemini models run in the cloud, it wouldn't hurt if Google could store chats (at least the text part) on the device so we can refer to them when offline. Google can also offer a lightweight version of its AI model to help with basic drafting, summarization, and other tasks. It has the Gemini Nano model, which can perform on-device processing on Google Pixel, Samsung, and some other Android brands, but it's a system feature and not related to the cloud-based Gemini app. Make temporary chats permanent I can't thank Google enough for taking the time and effort to add incognito mode or temporary chat mode to the Gemini app. It lets you have conversations without worrying that the topics will end up in your chat history or used for model training (at least on paper). Google claims that it doesn't use your temporary chats to "personalize your Gemini experience or train Google’s AI models." However, the data is stored "up to 72 hours to respond to you and to process any feedback you choose to provide." That said, I often start researching something in a temporary chat, only to realize the chatbot's answer is good enough to refer to later. Sadly, Gemini doesn't have an option to make such temporary chats permanent. In other words, I won't be able to follow up on it if I close the temporary chat. I'm left with alternatives like copying the answers into notes or another app. My digital life will get a lot better if Gemini gets a button to make temporary chats permanent. Collapse answers for a cleaner view You're heavily invested in your research game and suddenly feel the need to go up in the chat to recall something. This is when the conversation thread starts to feel like an overwhelming, unending wall of questions and answers. What if Google added a way to collapse Q&A pairs in the Gemini chat thread? It would look quite clean and easy to navigate. You'll quickly get an overview of everything you have discussed with the chatbot. Add buttons to jump between messages Suggested mockup of the feature. This reminds me of a small but useful Gemini feature that Google could add to its chatbot: the ability to hop between prompts in a conversation. Just add simple up- and down-arrow buttons, similar to YouTube Shorts, so people can quickly scroll through the messages. A table of contents or Chat Overview It's hard to get a bird's-eye view of everything you have discussed with the chatbot during a lengthy conversation. This is where a table of contents, or Chat Overview, displayed at the top of the screen, possibly in a drop-down button, might come in handy. You'll be able to get an overview of the chat and jump between messages, serving as an alternative to the up/down arrow buttons. Temporary mode for Gemini Live Image: Google You can use Gemini Live to have real-time conversations with the chatbot, which feels like you're talking to someone in the same room. However, a downside is that Gemini Live doesn't work in Temporary Chat mode, so all your conversations end up in the chat history. Google should consider expanding the temporary chat mode to include Gemini Live. Default to a specific chat One thing that feels somewhat annoying to me is that Gemini always opens in a new chat, whether on web or mobile. Sometimes, you want to return to your last chat. Google can take cues from web browsers, which let you choose whether you want to go to a new tab or a specific web page(s). Gemini can also have options to default to a specific chat when reopened. That said, generative AI chatbots have endless possibilities given the vagueness of their work. You can mold them the way you want by attaching different connectors, adding custom instructions, and including source files. It remains to be seen what Google has in store for future updates and whether anything from this wishlist gets the green light. The search giant released a stream of new Gemini updates in recent months, including Gemini 3.5 Flash and Gemini Omni Spark, adding that it now has 13 products with more than a billion users each.

    • What should AI detector tools show before users copy or export a report?

      Thank you for the post. Just a FYI that links to an outside site or promoting specific software is considered spamming here. Asking general questions is fine.

    • What should AI detector tools show before users copy or export a report?

      By sumytbe · Posted

      I have been thinking about AI detector tools as a software workflow rather than a single "AI score" widget. When someone pastes text or uploads a document, the UI can return a report with a probability-style score, sentence highlights, reliability notes, and limitations. The useful part is that it can point a reviewer toward passages worth reading again. The risky part is that a polished score can look more certain than it really is. For people who build or review web apps, what should happen before the user copies or exports that kind of report? The minimum I would expect is: A clear input boundary for pasted text versus document files. Limits shown near the workflow, including minimum text length and maximum file size. A report label that says the result is a signal, not proof of who wrote the text. Sentence highlights and evidence notes alongside the global score. Reliability notes when the sample is too short or lacks enough sentence variety. False-positive and false-negative caveats that remain visible in copied/exported summaries. I am trying to avoid the pattern where a clean report card becomes the whole product story. For AI detection, "review this evidence in context" seems more honest than "trust this score." Would you keep the warning text visible on every report, or make it collapsible so the main result stays easier to scan? Disclosure: I work on a small AI detector/reporting workflow, but I am intentionally not linking it here. I am asking about software and report design, not promoting a site.
