The necessity of the loading screens aside, travel in this game is very efficient and quick. With an adequate computer, the loading screens are brief and have not caused me any real annoyance.

My argument works from the viewpoint of a father who wants to protect their daughter.

A parent's duties is to kill, maim, torture and destroy all who get in the way of their offspring's well being.

Barbarism is not an argument.

Did it ever occur to you that what you think is best for your daughter might not be what is really best for your daughter? And that she might hate you if you for thinking that it's a parent's duties is to kill, maim, torture and destroy? That she might even *gasp* fake her suicide only to escape your ill-guided parental "love"?

 In addition, you justify violent parental intervention because "all bets are off" when you approach these "primal behaviors," yet someone else was making the argument that you can't blame the guy for pursuing a young girl because the attraction is a primal behavior. So, acting out against the 18 year, within your worldview, would be irrational. Would he not be justified in his actions just like the parent? Of Course not, but not within your argument.   

I am looking for a new monitor for gaming and typical daily use. I would like a bigger monitor (above 24"/below 30"), but do not want to sacrifice picture quality and performance simply for screen size. I have these two monitors in mind as they are closer to my buget. Which of the following do you think will have the best picture/performance. Will there be a difference in quality? Thanks for any advice.

I apologize for my brevity, but I like this game very much. There are a few issues that I am sure will be addressed at some point. But overall, I am happy with it and feel positive about the future of the game. However, I do understand why some may not like it.

I have also just built a new PC that makes them game even more enjoyable.

Hmm, all this sounds like to me is a sugar coated form of assimilation.   If all they are doing is making a new "division" for MMOs and RPGs, why even announce it as it is pretty menial to the common customer.

I imagine that this is just the first step in future reorganization.

On the Warhammer Alliance forums

From Community Coordinator Andy Belford:

"For clarity:

Mythic is not "merging" with Bioware.

Mythic and Bioware remain independent EA studios within a larger MMO/RPG group. "

I really don't get the attraction some people have with Aion, I guess it's a fab and it's "cool" to like Aion. That's how it is in Asia at least. The game itself is terrible imo.

But Waterlily...waterlily...Aion has wings111.

I don't get why some people don't like it when others like something.

Hey, if the game is fun I will play it for sure. But, I have to say that it does look completely horrible even for Beta.

It most have taken you one serious brainstorming session to come up with that snappy little diddy; very creative! I do agree with the sentiment, however.

I can't honestly say that my expectations are very high for the game (despite being a big SG 1 fan), but ranting about a game that is pre-beta with very few details available seems a bit over dramatic. Oh wait, I forgot this is MMORPG.com.

First of all, what happened in that screenshot wasn't really a soft flirt and some light jokes.
 

Secondly, if the student is under 18 years old (you never mentioned age in your original post), then yes, the teacher will go to prison. If the student is over 18 years old, the teacher/professor will be fired on the spot no questions asked with his/her career on serious jeopardy.

 

I didnt said the student would be a minor too, right?

Anyway, it is pretty normal even a 16 years old students flirt a bit (or at least try) with a  teacher.

And yes, I know if a teacher flirt with a student he/she can have some serious career issues, but what I said is, lets not be hypocrites, this kind of thing happens and it is a human thing as everything related to sexuality.

But please, lets not compare a silly GM and a manipulative player with a teacher and a kid.

Tell Chris Hansen we said hello when you run into him, Umbral.
 

I am still trying to figure out the whole "it is hard to solo in EQ 2" comment. You are talking about Everquest 2, right?

One can only hope.

He added a great deal to a great show.

Not exactly true. People who get pissed about video games technically don't count because they aren't real people.

Fantastical

The SWG "vets" who post on this site are an amazing bunch. First, they credit their relentless campaigning against SOE with the dismal state of SWG without acknowledging the simple fact that the NGE sucked so people quit playing. The overwhelming majority of those who currently play and who use to play have no idea about their little crusade. Then they proclaim it was their activism that inspired Bioware to create a Star Wars MMO and without them the development would have never begun, and now this. I played SWG pre cu and enjoyed it very much, the sand-box design was amazing, but the game itself was an unbalanced and broken turd that only gained a base due to the communtiy and the freedom the game allowed. So forgive me when I say that I hope Bioware makes a game in which over half of the stuff actually works.

I would in no way mind CoH 2.

If they can pull off everything they promised for CoH during it's development phase, plus more, and more diversity of missions at launch, I'm all for it.

I agree

Coh developed by Cryptic--CO developed by Cryptic and yet somehow they are similar..hmm

I can't figure it out, but apparently you have broken the code.

Can't wait
