I've been denied from weekly runs of Patchwerk because I didn't have 6k GS. I did Naxx still with 2xt5 and a bunch of blues/70 epics.

Because GS is bullsh*t, and any good player knows that. Sadly, GS is a way, in addition to achievements, sort through inexperience TO AN EXTENT, though that raid leader had to be a dumb@$$ to not lower their requirement(s) for the tier of the raid you were forming for...6k GS for Naxx? lulz

Wow I haven't played this game in a while. I only have like 3k gold in the bank, trying to get the Battered Hilt to drop or buy it since I don't have time to play a ton anymore.

I am just playing very casually from now on until Cataclysm comes out because nothing you do now except get gold will really matter once the expansion comes out. Unless you count achievements.

Sad to think, by halfway through the first new leveling zone all the gear we've grinded for so hard will be meaningless. :(

And by hard, I mean lazily moving to the left or right slightly in pretty much every boss encounter in ICC and clearing it all in under 2 hours Tuesday night, then wasting away the week because no one logs on for heroics.

Gear was never valuable: the fun that you had collecting it with friends is what matters. The only thing I liked about having Tier 2 and

3, or TIer 6/6.5 to level with is that I didn't have to use the "mandatory leveling clown suit" that less progressed players get handed.

My gear looks pretty cool but I'm not going to miss it at all when I start to replace it.

And by hard, I mean lazily moving to the left or right slightly in pretty much every boss encounter in ICC and clearing it all in under 2 hours Tuesday night, then wasting away the week because no one logs on for heroics.

Have you got RS25h and LK25h yet? Sure the first 11 in ICC 25 are a joke now, even on hard mode but the two last encounters are pretty fun.

If you can't get people to log in for hard mode attempts just start by blowing your first day on an extended raid lock out and working on them.

Move "Free loot tuesday" to wednesday.

I wouldnt bother getting the battered hilt. People pug TOC everyday, I'm sure you can get a weapon from there and save the 10K gold.

It sucks being on a lesser populated server, we've pretty much siphoned all the talent pool we can.

Extending it just makes them never log in, we've even tried tricking them-but it just causes them to log in, then magically lose all internet access 5 minutes into the raid night. Wed has pretty much just become our alt 10M H night, because no one likes licking 25M LK Hs taint apparently.

We've even started selling runs to lesser guilds that still need Kingslayers, just because our own can't get their **** together and just log in and bite the bullet.

I'm trying to rally the troops (as it were) for the last of the "hard" achievements. Dedicated Insanity, Herald, and Immortality.

I think the last of those would be the most impressive as less than 10 guilds world-wide have it today and hardly anybody is motivated to try.

Hey guys I used zomgbuffs for my Paladin, but what should I use for my Druid for auto-buff casting (self/group)?

zomgbuffs said it works for other classes but for some reason I can't get self buffs working with my Druid.

Thanks

I know it's annoying, but what are the addons at the bottom of your screen? The frames, button bars, chat and some sort of general status that goes across the screen?

My own customization of tukui - http://www.tukui.org/

V11 is going to be more user friendly as you can see on the main page, quite a bit of manual user editing of files just now.

Bit busy just now but I'll list all the additional addons I use a bit later and probably throw my user directory up in a rar file if you want my settings.

That'd be great. I've seen those frames before just never knew what they were called.

Incredibly lazy of Blizzard to change the caster skins for Druid but not the animations (using maul/etc)..... That's the kind of things you don't pay money for a month.

A WTF moment indeed, there's no end to complaints..

I don't know how long were you a Druid, but many of us were extremely happy with the new form skins, we didn't ask for much, now you want new animations ?

It's not lazy, it's redundant, why would they change something that works ?

You make it sound like you're disappointed by this, when you should be happy with what we got, how many years did they ignore our pleas ? Let's not be greedy here xD

We're not looking for a DK at the moment but the standard fair "exceptional players always welcome" applies. We have two regular DKs and one trialing as DW frost whom I expect will be accepted. If you've got gear on par with Fainn you'd probably be able to find a spot as a backup but a full time spot probably isn't open right now (we're casual but consistent so relatively few open raider spots).

You make it sound like you're disappointed by this, when you should be happy with what we got, how many years did they ignore our pleas ? Let's not be greedy here xD

If you've moved on from "We're crappy healers, worthless DPS, free kills in PVP, and only useful on one fight as a tank (soaking hatefuls on patchwerk at 60)" to "we should look even more cool when we're smacking things" then I think you've made out just fine.

    • 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.
