not debating that the person doesnt exists on a live server, and he probally does play on live. just either he wasnt on live when that was taken, or he was playing on a private earlier and the item ID that is showing, is not the liveID, but the PrivateID. aka he doesnt have a seperate WoW install for the private server, he just does the Serverlist hack to connect to the private

tradgedy is telling the truth well at least its not private server

go look up the names

Dergan

stormyknight

Cubbs

Kendora

Dergan has the exact same weapon on them (axe of frozen death) only know cause I use that same weapon

the Dergan is also level 70

its photoshoped though its a level 60 reqiurment... that and I have seen that exact weapon in other photoshoped pictures

it was actually a thread for photoshoping

but the character is actually on a live server and so was everyone else who was whisperd

Heh. This is turning out to be pretty amusing. I don't or never have played on a private server. Please note, I'm not saying someone hasn't used my computer to do so. My brother and a few others have used my computer to play a game or two. I know you'll say I'm just denying it. But whatever, it doesn't really matter if you believe me one way or another.

I mean, seriously, if I was making it up, wouldn't I be like "wow, this quest giver gave me this legendary sword and I totally pwnd all kinds of stuff with it." On a PvE server too, where it's even more useless..I'm not 12, I know that bragging on the internet doesn't win me anything.

Instead I said something strange happened to me while I was trying to do some quests and that a GM said it doesn't exist. Yeah man, that's totally cool, I'm going to run off to tell everybody I got something that is completely useless. I don't know -how- or -why- it happened, just that it did. Believe me or not, it doesn't really matter. I'm just kinda shocked at the reactions I'm getting. I thought this was some sort of screw up on Blizzards end, a bugged quest or something, sheesh.

Another thing, I talked to that GM around 8pm last night. I received the email at 7:27am. Good thing I wasn't waiting up for the email or anything. :/

I personally think that it's a bit strange that it's showing in your inventory and you've spoke to a GM, but it doesn't say that you received the item until after you'd spoken to the GM about it...

Because I was abandoning the quest and getting it again, hoping for some random reason to get the right quest item. You guys are too funny. Conspiracy abound with trag3dy and his completely useless legendary item that may or may not be real and may or may not be Photoshopped.

I guess it doesn't show in the screen shot but in between where I linked the item to the GM and received the item I abandoned the quest.

what bag mod is that anyway

sigh, just because the item is not on retail dosn't mean hes not playing retail. To me it looks like he has played on a private server and forgot to clear his cache.... this is what can happen.

I run a private server myself actually, and this happens when a server has an item that uses the same ID as a real item, thus when the player changes to retail, all the data received from the server will be old, from a private one.

That's what I think happened here, so let it go and let's move on.

Very nice, but ever thought of scaling everything a bit? With everything that big, feels like your screen would be extremly small. Maybe it's just me, but it looks nice, just way to big.

My screen is really small... It's 1280x1024. I like things slightly bigger I suppose. Don't have to strain my eyes or anything. Granted, everything would look better if it was in a higher, widescreen resolution like 1920x1080.

hey trag3dy, what big bag mod is it that your using there?

Combuctor. I think that's what you're after? It's a pretty great bag mod. The most useful I've found I think. Tabs on the side are for sorting items and it has a built in search to narrow a cluttered inventory down even more.

^^ I sound like a used car salesman.

I'm having an excellent time in Northrend. Just finished off Howling Fjord and it was a lot of fun. I still have to run Utgarde Keep... I usually play at night and there never seems to be enough people on, so I'll try during the day tomorrow.

I'm glad I signed back up, that's for sure :D

I can't wait to start questing in Northrend. I just started questing in Nagrand and it's better than Zangarmarsh, that's for sure. Anyway, what are some good UI mods for WoW? I've been using the default UI ever since I started playing.

Depends on what you want to do mostly. Do you want to completely overhaul the UI? Or just change the unit frames?

X-Perl Unit Frames are a very good default frame replacement if you don't want to tinker with it to get things the way you like it.

Pitbull unit frames if you like customizing a lot.

I like Bartender 4 to replace the bars. And ButtonFacade to make them look nice and purdy.

I could tell you dozens of other addons that I like but I think those are a good start for now.

Edit: Oh yeah, two really essential addons imo are QuestHelper and Lightheaded. Questhelper will help you easily locate quest objectives, while any that aren't very clear, you can look up in lightheaded wich gives you access to wowhead.com in game. Reduce your alt-tabbing by 90%.

Wow! Thanks a lot trag3dy. I'll give those a try with the exception of QuestHelper (I already have it). I'm looking forward to using LightHeaded as I always alt-tab out of WoW to search Wowhead. Anyway, there was a mod that I noticed in a couple of screenshots posted in this thread. It's a skin that makes it easier to read chat text. I can't find it at all nor can I remember the name. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    • I agree with what I think you are saying, just not in the way you are saying it. Like any tool, the amount it represents your work is perorational to the effort you put into it. It is similar to why 2nd grade math students learning to add and subtract are not allowed to use calculators, but a high-school calculous student is. For the 2nd grader, that tool would completely replace the work they are doing, for the calculous student the same tool allows them to work far more effectively while in no way replacing their effort or knowable. If you spend 30 seconds writing a prompt, then the image that comes out is no more "yours" than if you found the same image with a Google Image search. However, many of these generative tools also support highly iterative processes that allow back and forth, and merging generated images with photos or human created images. I am sure you would agree that a human spending hours of time working on a project, even if AI was involved in the process, still reflects that human's work.
    • Windows 11 version 26H2 is now available for testing in the latest preview build by Taras Buria Friday Windows 11 preview builds are here. Insiders in the Experimental (formerly Dev) and Beta Channel can download builds 26300.8697 and 26220.8690. There are no new features, but Microsoft is officially moving the Experimental Channel to version 26H2. In addition, Microsoft is improving the copy dialog in File Explorer, the Start menu reliability, and fixing virtualization issues. Here is the changelog: [General] With today’s build, Windows Insiders in the Experimental channel will see the versioning updated under Settings > System > About (and winver) to version 26H2. For more information, see the Windows Insiders blog.

[Settings] - Also available in Beta Improved reliability of Settings > Apps > Startup. [Virtualization] - Also available in Beta This update addresses an issue that could result in bugchecks citing HYPERVISOR_ERROR (0x20001) and KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (0x1E) errors after installing the latest flights on some devices during system restarts, virtual machine operations, or while running some gaming applications. You can find the official changelog for the Experimental build here and for the Beta build here.
    • I've always preferred this possibility. There is something that feels good about the idea that all matter in the universe will eventually come back together and maybe even result in another big bang. The idea that the universe would fizzle out over the eons and forever drift apart is a little depressing. I realize it is not logical to let a basic human desire for life to have a grand everlasting meaning change the way I feel about a scientific theory, but I am human, so that is how I feel :-).
    • Windoze 11 could finally go to hell, instead of making me savor yet another error I've never had. "Bad Pool Caller" or whatever TF cryptic crap0la message it is. Adding salt to injury, it says something along these lines (on the blank black screen after it hard stops): "Your windoze needs to restart. You can restart." NO WAY SHERLOCK. The PEECEE, look, it's *blocked*, I can do jack sh1t with it as it is and you say that it needs to restart? Further, that I can restart? What am I supposed to do, take a herbal bath? Sudo a sandwich? Timewaster pile of useless slop and errors, coded by monkeys and force-fed on us by a pedo-founded corporation, that's all there is to it. Now, let's have a fun weekend trying to handle the error, which after a quick internet check can basically be due to EVERYTHING, from memory faults to drivers to motherboard issues. Thanks M$.
    • Zen Browser 1.21.3b by Razvan Serea Zen Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser built on Mozilla Firefox, offering users a secure and customizable browsing experience. It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces. Compact Mode: Maximizes screen space by minimizing UI elements. Zen Glance: Quick website previews. Split Views: View multiple tabs in the same window. Sidebar: Access bookmarks and tools quickly. Vertical Tabs: Manage tabs vertically. Container Tabs: Separate browsing sessions. Fast Profile Switcher: Switch between profiles easily. Tab Folders: Organize tabs into folders. Customizable UI: Personalize browser interface. Security Features: Inherits Firefox’s robust security. Fast Performance: Lightweight and optimized for speed. Zen Mods Customization: Deep customization with mods. Quick Access: Easy access to favorite websites. Open Source: Built on Mozilla Firefox with community collaboration. Community-Driven: Active development and feedback from users. GitHub Repository: Contribute and review the source code. Zen Browser 1.21.3b changelog: New Features Updated to Firefox 152.0.1 Fixes Fixed transparency not working after updating to 1.21.2b (#14259) Fixed frequent crashes affecting users with Intel Raptor Lake processors Fixed an issue on macOS where choosing a PDF option, such as "Save as PDF", from the system print dialog would send the job to your printer instead of saving a file.
