Your server must be pretty boring. Even being horde on an alliance dominated server, Wintergrasp is still very popular with both factions. It's quite common to see 1-2 raid groups on both factions in Wintergrasp on my server.

All servers are boring. :) But I'm on Twisting Nether. I just haven't heard the barker announcing when the Battle for Wintergrasp would begin for ages. I'm sure people were still playing it when they took it offline. (I don't bother with battlegrounds anymore since the rewards are so useless now.)

TN has hadly any real RP.

Then again.. I wouldn't really know.

I was there for a year and a half and only saw SERIOUS RP in Sun Rock Retreat, two times.

Reason why I ask, my 'main' is currently on Sisters of Elune. I've played on RP, PVP and PVE realms, but RP-PVP realms are the only I've not tried. Might check it out, if I ever get back into WoW.

Picked up the red proto drake the day before the nerf patch, glad I did cause a bunch of people are getting them now as well, heh.

Also, the wonders the patch days. XD 3.0.8 still doesn't rank that high on the bad scale compared to when wow was released back in 04 though thats not to say they didn't eff up a lot of things this week.

Amazingly, patch day was pretty smooth for me. I didn't get on until later in the evening, so I didn't have to deal with realm restarts due to Wintergrasp, and I haven't had any problems with my character at all.

Who's up for some gnome football? :p

Lucky you. For us it was either head to Outland/Azeroth or get into an instance Tuesday. Since we were doing Sar 10, I think like 6 of us just chilled in there waiting for others to show up. And summoning those last 4 took well into the 40 minute range simply due to server crashin.

The great thing about being a Gnome DK is no one expects you to do 2k+ damage.

I'm already pulling off 1.5k Crits at 59. :rofl: .. and when damage meters come up for the group, I'm usually on top, if not on top like.. 3 points shy of being on top.

I'm 52 and doing 1050 crits with really bad gear with no enchants.. I do them a lot. Maybe 3 or more times per mob. I can kill them before they get anywhere near me. I hit them from far, they freeze, run at me really slow, when they finally get near me, they're almost dead, freeze em, boom done.

I absolutely love being a Frost Mage.

      The proportion (or number of iterations) has nothing to with this aspect of Copyright I am describing. In short, it doesn't matter how many times the manager tells you to change something or how. Your work product is always YOURS until and unless you then assign that to the person representing the client/company, usually for financial compensation -- either in salary or as a subcontract work for hire payment. if iterations determined copyright, then businesses would have learned to just keep making changes until they could claim they owned the copyright, without having to compensate the artist for their work. And that would be BAD. The only place where the amount of changes does have a role is in how much does a human modify a previous public domain work (from any source) before it is considered fair use or their own work, etc. For example, if a human makes substantial changes to a public domain (re: AI, by definition) work, then they can then claim that derivative work as their own...but NEVER the original version, of course. That's why anyone can make a movie about Dracula, for example, as long as it is based on the public domain novel, but not if they take new ideas from copyrighted movies made afterwards. As one of the people who personally advised the US Copyright Office on their recent ruling on these very issues, be assured that I specifically used the terminology precisely -- though I made it simple enough for laymen to understand it. If I made this confusing by doing so, I apologize. But, to be clear regarding your assumption that I would agree to your second statement that I quoted above -- the answer is NO. If AI does the work, no matter how much "direction" you give it, it cannot be copyrighted. All AI generated content is in the Public Domain and therefore the copyright cannot be assigned to ANYONE, even you -- until and unless substantial modifications are made to it BY A HUMAN BEING (yourself or a contracted artist/writer/etc.) and then that copyright on the derivative work is legally (in writing) transferred to you. This is a critical distinction. And it is important that people, especially AI sloppers, understand this. For example, YouTube is not paying AI slop generators for the copyright, etc. of their AI slop. What YouTube is doing is sharing AD REVENUE for permission to publish your AI slop. Copyright/ownership/rights never come into it. Importantly, that means that anyone can copy any AI slopware on YouTube, etc. and rehost it anywhere they want, even back on YouTube, and there is nothing legal that YouTube can do about it with regards to copyright protections, ownership, DMCA, etc. Anyone is legally free to use any AI slopware in any way they want. When this ruling was pending, I warned Disney legal of all of this before they did their OpenAI deal -- that it would literally dilute their entire IP portfolio forever. They ignored that warning for the PR and stock bump. But that is why, when the ruling came down last year, Disney quickly extricated themselves from that OpenAI deal, even eating the initial upfront fees -- followed closely by OpenAI ending their entire AI video generating business model. They adjusted their PR release dates to make this less obvious to shareholders, of course. Phew. I hope that this clears up the key distinctions for you and anyone reading. If you have any additional questions or even hypotheticals about AI and Copyright, please feel free to ask.

      Each of the devices displayed on this page now has a little volume meter next to it to show if there is audio actively playing. About time.

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2, urges IT admins to prepare for release

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2, urges IT admins to prepare for release by Usama Jawad Windows 11 typically follows an annual update cycle, but Microsoft recently broke that tradition a bit by releasing a "26H1" version in the first half of this year as a "scoped" build for select new silicon PCs only. This version was not available for customers using 24H2 and 25H2 builds, as Microsoft is busy preparing version 26H2 for them, confirmed officially for the first time. In a Windows IT Pro blog, Microsoft has urged IT admins to prepare for the upcoming release of Windows 11 version 26H2. The company has confirmed that this will be a small enablement package (eKB) that will simply light up certain disabled features that are already present in the operating system's code base. This means that the "refined" Windows update and deployment experience will be simpler and quicker, with minimal disruptions, as the feature update will simply toggle a few flags rather than performing a complete replacement. Microsoft has explained that this is all possible because the standard Windows 11 releases share the same servicing branch and hence, the same source code. However, this also means that Windows 11 26H1 users won't be able to upgrade to 26H2 as that is a different branch, but this is something we have known for a while now. Similar to previous annual feature updates, Windows 11 26H2 will offer the following support cycles: 24 months of support for Home, Pro, Pro EDU, and Pro for Workstations editions 36 months of support for Enterprise, Education, IoT Enterprise, and Enterprise Multi-session editions Microsoft has not confirmed a concrete release date for Windows 11 26H2, but noted that it is "coming soon". If we go by the ongoing release cadence, we can expect it to begin rolling out in early October 2026. As such, IT admins have been encouraged to begin validating Windows Insider releases in the Experimental Channel, plan rollout rings, and strategize the utilization of their existing deployment tools.
