in canada we call people from the US americans, fyi. no canadian would be caught dead calling themselves american. not that we hate the US, but we have a bit of friendly rivalry, even though our cultures are very similar, with a few key differences that are often not really obvious unless you've lived for a good amount of time in both countries.

once again your trolling answer is wrong.

lol wut? i live in canada, we DO NOT call ourselves americans. how is any of that post you quoted trolling? we might know americans or have family in america but we still make fun of americans. we call the US, the states or america here. we don't say, oh we're americans because we live in north america. that's silly as ****. we're canadians, not americans. canada is in north america, not america.

WoW is expensive in comparison to other games. It's inexpensive when I compare it to a round of drinks in the pub. ?30 for another expansion though is a lot of money imo when your already paying ?9 a month. One thing though with Blizzard is they really are good at keeping you busy.

Grind raids and random heroics to buy new tier gear. When you eventually get the complete set they go add another tier and raid to start grinding. Repeat this 5x then release a new expansion. Repeat. Sounds repetitive, but it keeps 10 million people happy?

Personally I don't have time for WoW since becoming a dad. I will get Cata one day but justifying ?9 for a few hours play a month I just cant do right now. Roll on GuildWars 2 IMO.

General request:

Does anyone have a US horde server i could move to? My server (Bloodhoof) has a crappy population, alliance abso-freaking-lutely dominated PvP, and the GM of the guild i'm in has hated me since day 1 (long story, series of unfortunate events). I would be willing to transfer my 80 priest if there was a guild available, but I'm mostly looking for population and pretty even sided PvP.

Quel'Dorei is decent ... has good economy and decent on PvP

I might make a character on there, is it a high population server? Also, what faction? I really wish heirlooms were transferable to other servers :(

Its medium/high pop. We are playing Alliance. Just message me in game.. My mages name is Smeltn

Monthly service charges are not direct Content Patch charges.

Blizzard obviously makes money after paying all it's employees to develop new content. The revenue for that can't come from expansion pack sales alone therefore you are indeed paying for at least some of this new content from monthly service charges. Additionally, while we all as tech-oriented people should know, it does cost tons of money to host these services in their six data centers in the US alone but I don't think it costs them $15/month x 10 million. Some of that money has to go into development.

Gah, i can't stand Alliance. It's nothing against the people that play it, but i find the races so.. boring. The races/architecture of the horde feel so much more unique IMO.

Quel'Dorei is a option, but it seems the Neowin guild is all but dead.

We should remake a neowin guild. maybe get a vote on server (except nesingwary, the economy is screwed. People will charge a million gold for a first aid cloth lol).

@Smeltn - I'll see ya shortly after Cata drops. Need a home for my Dwarf Mage.

As to the neowin guild. If anyone wants to take over on the QD server (it's a good one). I'll be more than happy to pass the reigns along to whoever, if a group wants to continue on as horde.

a couple more dungeon runs tonight. wow they seemed to make wotlk 5 mans so easy compared to tbc, or is it the DKs doing 25k dps? :laugh:

i would roll with smeltn knowing how cool his crew is but he's alliance and on a pve server. my 2 man crew needs world pvp like it's our life blood. and we pretty much hate every alli race. except pink haired female gnomes. they're cool :shiftyninja:

A lot of warrior nerfs in the 4.03a patch notes. I am a sad panda.

Oh well, I guess now is a good time to take my worgen druid reroll idea more seriously...

So am I. Though after Tuesday's dailies I'll have all my heirloom gear for my undead hunter!

Why would I call myself an American when I am Canadian? If you do more power to your American brethren but I, myself and a lot of other people call ourselves Canadian as we are not American.

Anyways back OT ... I can't wait to log in today and try everything out. I tried exploring a few places on the PTR but it wasn't the same with premade characters ... I want to experience it with my REAL characters.

BTW the new Stormwind is amezzin.

Sadly, I couldnt bring myself to keep playing. I ended up deleting every lvl 80 I had, and gave my 45k odd gold to random people in dalaran. Its been a fun 5 years, but I cant take the grind anymore, or the general attitude of people within wow anymore. Plus, I have lost so much time to that game besides doing something which I have always loved to do: programming. I hope everyone has fun in the expansion

    • Glow 26.10

      By Copernic · Posted

      Glow 26.10 by Razvan Serea Glow provides detailed reporting on every hardware component in your computer, saving you valuable time typically spent searching for CPU, motherboard, RAM, graphics card, and other stats. With Glow, all the information is conveniently presented in one clean interface, allowing you to easily access and review the comprehensive hardware details of your system. Glow provides detailed information on various system aspects, including OS, motherboard, processor, memory, graphics card, storage, network, battery, drivers, and services. The well-organized format ensures easy access to the required information. You can export all the gathered data to a plain text file, facilitating sharing with others for troubleshooting purposes. No installation needed. Just decompress the archive, launch the executable, and access computer-related information. Glow runs on Windows 11 and Windows 10 64-bit versions. Glow 26.10 changelog: New Features The bootstrapping algorithm has been completely redesigned. The software can now launch directly without requiring TS Preloader. As part of this change, the startup splash screen displayed during initialization has been removed. In addition, spikes in CPU usage have been eliminated, resulting in a more stable architecture with significantly lower memory consumption. The Microsoft Office detection infrastructure within the Operating System section has been enhanced. Additional detection support has been added for Office C2R (Click-to-Run) installations. Furthermore, the license status evaluation system has been improved, and the priority order has been revised as follows: Licensed > Grace Period > Other (NOTIFICATIONS, EVALUATION, etc.). Glow now includes preliminary support for Wi-Fi 8 technology, allowing more detailed information to be displayed for Wi-Fi 8-compatible network adapters. Glow now provides full support for Bluetooth 6.2. Adapters supporting Bluetooth 6.2 can be analyzed in greater detail and with improved accuracy. The disk distribution view in the Disk section has been modernized, replacing the traditional table layout with a new 2×2 card-based design. The TS Custom Controls module has been updated to v26.7. Thanks to the new custom controls, all Türkaysoft applications now offer a more modern and consistent user interface aligned with Windows 11 design standards. Bug Fixes Potential line-ending handling issues in the Office detection code within the Operating System section have been resolved. Additionally, the output format has been standardized to UTF-8 to prevent character encoding issues and ensure consistent data processing. Several stability and file management issues within the Debugging infrastructure have been addressed. Problems that prevented new log files from being created after Debugging was disabled, as well as issues causing debug records to be lost, have been fixed. File deletion and reaccess issues that occurred after file locks were released have also been resolved. In addition, a bug that caused newly recreated log files to remain locked after deletion has been eliminated. Unnecessary blank lines within debug logs and the extra empty line that could appear at the end of log files have also been corrected. A shortcut key conflict caused by assigning identical hotkeys to both the DNS Test Tool and the Donation page has been fixed. The DNS Test Tool can now be accessed using CTRL + Shift + D, while the Donation page is available via CTRL + Alt + D. Changes The service responsible for providing the Public IP Address and Internet Service Provider information in the Network section has been updated to use the ipinfo.io infrastructure. This change improves the accuracy and consistency of the displayed data. (No external requests are made while Hiding Mode is enabled.) Some terms in the Dutch and Korean language files have been updated to make them clearer and more user-friendly. [TS Updater] Before the update process begins, users are now prompted to choose whether they would like to view the release notes. Note: Always unzip the program before using it. Otherwise you may get an error. Download: Glow 26.10 | 1.8 MB (Open Source) Links: Glow Homepage | Screenshot | Github Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
