Let me guess, you're a horde Rogue or Druid?

Wrong and wrong.

I'm a BE paladin, and I have an alt hunter.

Why would you assume I was a rogue? Dps? have fun at end game.

Druid? Hahaha. No thanks.

If I wanted to be rediculously chliche I'd be a Shaman, easily the most powerful class.

Although lock's can do a 10,000 crit with shadowbolt.

Although everyone seems to have his own opinion on what class is the most powerful, I find this rather funny. :blink:

Anyway, locks getting 10k shadowbolt crits isn't what makes them overpowered. Having a spec like SL/SL is what makes them overpowered.

HAHA Be Pally.

You might aswell be a Draenei shammy, no doubt female being played by a male.

Locks are a very very nice class to play, much better imo than Mr.Hunter, the most rolled toon ever :p

You're right, I might as well be a Draenei Shammy, if I was alliance. I'm sorry, but hunters not rolled more than locks, even if they were, it would make the game that much better, nice try.

All I'm saying is Alliance, like you've already proven, is a bunch of immature people.

(and the weak insult of me playing as a girl, I really do pity you.)

From my experience of playing WoW for many years I can safely say. You're both as bad as each other. The mature adult would back down and ignore them.

I've seen both sides in the past. Both /1 channels are full of illiterate fools grasping for attention.

I never once said I was better, infact I complimented locks because of the damage they can do.

All I said was;

1. Alliance + Lock = hilarious combination; to me only, obviously.

2. from my OWN experience, yes, disregarding all of yours because I am rude, and the immature one, alliance players in game and in real life are by far the worst people to share a gaming experience with.

Anyway, too far off topic, and getting into flaming;

/endargument.

You're not allowed to talk about end game in ssc / tk =/ sorry.

Also, if you seriously think you can possibly classify the few million people who play wow into Alliance = immature and Horde = Mature... you you must be one of the most ignorant people out there.

andd.. making fun of someone for choosing a lock? Did you miss what locks have been one of the best classes in the game for years(from both a pve dps*provided the guild is smart and knows how to use them* and pvp prospective)? FYI, hunters are one of the worst ranged dps classes in the game... hence why they weren't even invited to naxx raids (the only instance that actually took skill).

So really after reading just a few of your posts you should really stop trying to talk down to people, you honestly have no clue what you're talking about.

I'm sorry you're wrong.... http://www.warcraftrealms.com/census.php nice try. Talk out of your ass more please!

(This is my last point about this)

FYI, hunters are one of the worst ranged dps classes in the game...

Not entirely true. Problem amongts hunters is tons of them claim Marksmanship being the best DPS spec, even though there are proofs of it being the worst raiding/dps spec.

If properly specced and geared, a Beast mastery hunter is the 2nd single target dps class, right behind rogues. And that includes even Black Temple/Hyjal, excluding Archimonde which is a really pet-unfriendly fight and hunters can't do as much dps on it as usual... Before the scorpid pet bug was fixed, not even rogues were on par with BM hunter dps, cause the pet itself could dash out insane amount of dps, in range of ~700 dps (if the pet was properly talented, and it's skills were used at the right time).

alliance players in game and in real life are by far the worst people to share a gaming experience with.

How can you be so childish?

I'm really interested what alliance have done to you for you to make such an opinion? Were you ganked a lot? Got scammed? Been insulted? That happens on both sides, and claiming everyone's like that on alliance makes you no better than those players whom you disliked in the first place.

^Made some very valid points there. Although to my experiences with my guild the real use for hunters is tsa witch is highly effective if the hunter is properly geared for it. Although I quit a few months after ago after illidan =P and we only had 2 hunters in the guild because we never recruited post tbc and they wern't needed in naxx.

2. from my OWN experience, yes, disregarding all of yours because I am rude, and the immature one, alliance players in game and in real life are by far the worst people to share a gaming experience with.

Since you decided to make me look like an ignorant ass, without posting the part where I said FROM MY OWN EXPERIENCE, I guess I need to reiterate that for you.

Now, I'm sure everyone that has been obviously offended by me insulting the alliance is/was/has been an alliance player, if you're not, and playing devil's advocate (ie; arguing just for the sake of it, all apologies about being immature are welcomed) don't bother responding again.

Now, to explain why I don't like Alliance even more so; read the posts above bickering, complaining and whining about what I said. Sure, I generalized, and stereo-typed all of the alliance by saying they are immature, now, that's not ME being immature, it's me being ignorant to the fact that there are some cool alliance players out there; however it's not my fault that the ones I have met IRL and played with have represented themselves and fellow alliance as nothing more than 12 year olds that just learned how to spell swear words.

I believe this spawned from me saying something to the affect of "hahaa, of all the combinations". When did I personally belittle anyone directly? If anything you all jumped on the bandwagon of defense towards me.

I'm sorry you're all so touchy, and are obviously against a rivalry that makes the game what it is, but it's really not my problem.

I apologize, and I was wrong about the actual stats and facts of races/classes. "being-obtatyion" proved me wrong, and I do apologize. I suppose I should stop making such general comments when the actual facts are different.

Let's just play.

ps. My hunter owns your Lock. lulz, relax.

edit: Analogy; why do Red Socks fans hate the yankee's and their fans? I'm sure both fan nations don't have direct problems/dislike towards every single one of each other, it's just a rivalry, and part of the game, again, making it what it is.

I really really must be an unlucky player... Since I started doing SSC/TK with my guild I haven't seen a single hunter drop (except for the tier items, got 3 of them), it really ****es me off... No Al'ar gun, no ranger-general's chestguard, nothing... And we've been farming through that content, except for Vashj and KT... I didn't even get the Sunfury Bow even though I run Karazhan every week for the last 5 months. -.-

Blizzard should really change the way loot tables work, and make it more likely to drop an item that hasn't dropped for the players yet...

You're right, I might as well be a Draenei Shammy, if I was alliance. I'm sorry, but hunters not rolled more than locks, even if they were, it would make the game that much better, nice try.

All I'm saying is Alliance, like you've already proven, is a bunch of immature people.

(and the weak insult of me playing as a girl, I really do pity you.)

The insult if any of playing as a girl only comes if in someway your not comfortable with your self. tell you now why Hunters are rolled far more than Locks, purely as they make the best farming toons. Ever been to STV? Invariably every bot and gold farmer out there has a Hunter on a 10 day trial account called "xghyrtx".

Alliance is no way more or less mature than Horde, depends on server etc. Look at Magtheridon Eu its crawling with fanboys of Nihl.

<3 how your dominating this thread making yourself to be the bees knees in Hunters / wow players. How many others are you having "discussions" with in this thread other than me? Surely it couldnt be you who is abresive.... could it?!

Also whats with the nice try and I pity you statements, lighten up mate its only a bit of a joke. Im not gonna get pulled into any forum flame wars or other non-sensical chit chat with you. I will say one thing tho, you dont further the stereotype that Horde = Mature players... not at all.

Anyways moving on... oh no its the Gnooomes!!!

    • Winhance 26.06.12 by Razvan Serea Winhance is an open-source Windows enhancement utility designed to help users debloat, optimize, and customize Windows 10 and 11. It provides a user-friendly interface for removing unwanted apps, legacy components, and optional features safely, giving you more control over your system. With Winhance, you can improve performance, reduce clutter, and enhance privacy without the need for a clean install. Beyond basic debloating, Winhance offers extensive optimization tools. Users can tweak power plans, adjust gaming and performance settings, control notifications, and manage Windows Update behavior. Privacy-focused settings allow you to limit telemetry and data collection, while system customization options let you personalize the taskbar, Start menu, Explorer, and Windows themes. Winhance also supports installing or removing software efficiently, including external apps via WinGet integration, streamlining both new setups and daily maintenance. New AI privacy groups have been added for Windows AI, Microsoft Edge AI, and Microsoft Office AI, giving users clearer control over AI-related telemetry and feature usage. In addition, new settings in Gaming & Performance introduce AI taskbar pin toggles, options to remove AI apps, and controls for AI services and scheduled tasks, allowing users to better manage how AI components run in the background and appear in the system. For advanced users and IT professionals, Winhance integrates WIMUtil, a tool for creating custom Windows installation ISOs with automated configuration. You can generate autounattend.xml files, inject drivers, and apply your chosen Winhance settings automatically during installation. Most changes are non-destructive and reversible, with clear explanations in the GUI. Whether you’re optimizing a single PC or managing multiple systems, Winhance delivers a faster, cleaner, and highly personalized Windows experience. The Winhance.Installer.exe includes both Installable and Portable versions during setup. Winhance supports both Windows 10 and Windows 11 64-bit versions. It's regularly updated to ensure compatibility with the latest Windows updates and features. Winhance key features: Debloat Windows – Safely remove unwanted apps, features, and legacy components.

Winhance 26.06.12 changelog: Features Builder Mode — build a Winhance config file or autounattend.xml without changing anything on the PC you're sitting at. Flip the new mode switcher to Builder, set everything the way you want it, and save the result as a Winhance config or an autounattend file ready for deployment on other machines. Sponsors & Supporters page — the exit donation dialog is gone. In its place, an in-app page (heart icon or the More menu) recognizes the businesses and individual supporters who keep Winhance free. It works offline and is fully localized. Change History — Winhance now keeps a receipt of everything it does. ChangeHistory.txt records every setting change (before and after values) and every app install or removal, with clear headers for config imports and bulk actions. Open it from the More menu. Hebrew language support — Winhance is now available in 29 languages. New Explorer customizations: desktop icon visibility toggles, This PC folder visibility, an icon cache size setting, and automatic thumbnail cache cleanup. New "All apps view" setting for the redesigned Windows 11 Start menu, and the Windows 11 system tray icons setting is now a dropdown with more control. App-local UI zoom — press Ctrl +/-/0 or use Ctrl+MouseWheel to scale the whole app, just like a browser. New External Apps: EA app, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, Rockstar Games Launcher, PowerShell, and Helium Browser. Bug Fixes Layouts no longer clip when the Windows text size slider is set above 100%. Accessibility: Narrator now announces setting names on toggles and dropdowns, previously unlabeled buttons are labeled, and progress updates are announced. Silent updates now respect your custom install location instead of reverting to the default. Cancel in Review Mode no longer clears your app selections. OneNote is now detected correctly for Win32 Click-to-Run installs. Clean Start Menu applies more reliably by also writing the group policy path. WinGet errors are no longer silent — error details now show in the terminal output. Fixed a startup crash on older Windows builds caused by a .NET runtime regression. Config import now converts power setting values correctly and no longer re-applies an already-active power plan. Improvements App icons load noticeably faster and cover almost everything now, including legacy capabilities and optional features — they come from a dedicated, checksum-validated icon repository and are fetched in parallel. Software & Apps polish: per-icon tooltips, extra table columns, an app sort dropdown, relocated search, and a cleaner compact view. A warning now appears when the Connected Devices Platform Service is set to Manual or Disabled, since some Windows features depend on it.

    • Of course the problem was Secure Boot's new certificates. Install media created by the official Media Creation Tool is already signed with a valid certificate from Microsoft, so maybe that certificate isn't "up-to-date" enough for machines with the new ones installed in the UEFI. There's really no other logical explanation.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.
