    • bored of lotro
    • I kind of know what the OP means.  It is the same feeling I have had with almost every single MMO since Dark Age of Camelot came out. 

      Everquest 2 -

      Vanguard -

      Age of Conan -

      CoH/CoV -

      Guild wars -

      EvE -

      D&D Online -

      FFXI -

      Hellgate London -

      Lineage 2 -

      Pirates of the Burning Sea -

      RF Online -

      Archlord -

      Star Wars Galaxies -

      Tabula Rasa -

      World of Warcraft -

       

      Every single one bored me and I only pushed on through some of them to play with friends who were playing.  (WoW, AoC) 

       

      I do like LOTRO but I find I need to play it extremely casually or I get burnt out on it as well. 

      Last game I was actually able to play non-stop was Asheron's Call 1.  Also the best MMO I have ever played.

    • You critic the game, you get ban, simple as that.
    • Social Guidelines

      The Age of Conan bulletin board is a place for players to talk about the game, discuss and share knowledge, and engage in role-playing. The general topic for the bulletin board is the game and the community around Age of Conan.

      In order to maintain the boards and be able to provide feedback, we must reserve the right to enforce certain standards and rules. Please understand that this bulletin board is owned and operated by Funcom. It is a privately run message board, and all rules are enforced at our discretion.

      Alias

      Your alias should be short and unique to easily identify you and set you apart from others. The rules for your alias are:

      • Keep it to 15 characters or less.
      • Use only letters, numbers (0-9), space ( ), hyphen (-) and underscore (_) in the alias.
      • Avoid offensive aliases.


      Signature

      Your signature is a good place for including some info about yourself, a quote you like, or links to your characters. The signature should not take the attention away from the posts though, and thus we have these rules for signatures:

      • Limit it to a maximum of 10 lines, including any empty lines.
      • Use normal text size or smaller. I.e. no [size=x] tags with x > 2.
      • Don't overdo the colors and smileys.
      • Avoid the [quote] tag, as it takes up a lot of space.


      Do

      Following are some guidelines that you should keep in mind when posting. Remember that the general topic on the bulletin board is Age of Conan.
       

      • Post in English, using proper mixed case and punctuation. A single exclamation mark (!) or question mark (?) is enough.
         
      • Use a relevant, specific and descriptive subject for a thread. "I was thinking of something" and "Here's an idea" are not good topics.
         
      • Stay on topic. When posting a new thread, make sure it fits into the topic of the forum. When replying to a post, make sure to stay on the topic of the thread you're posting in.
         
      • Be constructive and back up your statements. If quoting, make sure to quote all relevant text, and if needed, provide a link to the source.
         
      • Pay the moderators and other volunteers proper respect. They spend their spare time to assist and improve the Age of Conan community.
         
      • Be nice, especially to newcomers. Let people become acquainted with the environment and do beginners' mistakes without patronising them. Please respect that people may have a different political, religious, philosophical, and cultural background than you.
         
      • Play fair. Be truthful and respect other people's privacy. Do not misrepresent or impersonate others.
         
      • Have fun! That's why we're all here. Just remember to have fun with others, not at the expense of others.


      Don't

      This is a list of things you should not do on our bulletin board. If you do any of this, you might find your access to the bulletin board closed, possibly permanently.
       

      • Flame. Flaming is verbally attacking people or groups of people - e.g. a profession, an organization, a company. Name-calling and defamatory comments are typical examples of flaming.
         
      • Rant. Ranting is posting irate and normally unconstructive comments. It's normally used to let out frustration, but also as a form of trolling.
         
      • Troll. Trolling is posting to provoke others, luring them to flame or rant. Trolling is sometimes done involuntary, so please be considerate when posting.
         
      • Spam. Spamming is posting the same thing several times, or posting without any real content. "Bumping" (posting to move a thread up on the forum list) and cross-posting (posting the same thread in several forums) are examples of spam.
         
      • Fight. Taking a personal conflict to the bulletin board is not needed. Allow those not involved to avoid having to see it.
         
      • use profanity Please respect other users and do not use foul language and profanity in your posts. This includes trying to 'mask' such language by substituting letters or symbols.
         
      • Necromancy Raise threads long dead. Necromancy should be saved for Necromancers, not forums posts.
         
      • Be a jerk The Golden Rule of our forums and enforcement is "Don't Be A Jerk."
         


      Before starting a thread, take a look around the forums and see if the issue is being discussed elsewhere. There'll usually be one or two threads with most of the activity there, and spin-offs that don't merit their own thread will be closed quickly.

      On a related note, do not make parody threads, especially centered on hot topics. They're probably not funny and a good way to inflame the situation further.

      If someone is flaming you or otherwise acting like a jerk, the Report button is the best way to get our attention. We understand things can get heated at times, but nasty retorts and counter-flaming are a good way to get an entire thread closed and both sides suspended/banned.

      We ask you not to discuss politics or religion on the forums. For the purposes of these rules, discussions on race and national origin (excepting, of course, in game race/national origin) will fall under the banner of “politics.”

      We ask you not to discuss warez and other illegal activity.

      Catchphrases, memes, image macros, Rickrolls, and other such Internet tomfoolery are funny until the moderators decide they aren't funny anymore. Along with their banhammer, they are also issued badges from the Humor Police.

      While these don't apply to a game in a pre-launch state, for the sake of completeness, we include them here.

      Individual account issues (in-game banning, problems with your account, GM issues) go through customer support emails or in private messages. If there is a serious problem with customer support, please contact a community person.

      Posting of any account details (especially “I've cancelled”, cancellation screens, etc.) is prohibited.

      Moderation

      Moderation is not ever a topic for open forum. If you have any questions or feedback on moderation it should be addressed to the community manager or the specific moderator via private message.
       

      • Do not post threads questioning moderation. Such threads will be removed
         
      • If a topic is closed or removed do not, under any circumstances, re-post the same topic or material. If you have any questions as to why a thread was closed or removed please contact the moderator via private message.

       

      There are the rules for posting that everyone agrees to by posting on the forums.  In the rules it states Posting of any account details (especially "I've Cancelled") is prohibited.  Do not get mad at the moderators when they are following the rules that Funcom has in place.  (And has had in place since I think 2005 well before Age of Conan)  These are Funcom's rules for posting.  It isn't much different from other boards I have been to.  I don't know of a single company that allows posters to make posts about how they are leaving the game.

      My guess is your System specifications are the biggest thing holding people back.  As soon as I updated my DXdiag file after upgrading to a 8800GTS (G92) card, 4 gigs of ram, and Windows Vista 64 bit I got in.  Of course I got in right when Age of Conan started their early access play.

      WAR (Warhammer Online)
    • Darkfall new info
    • Originally posted by Soundbyte

      as for mythic, they only have 1 released game - DAOC.


       

      Once again you are posting untrue information.  If you are going to speak about a subject at least take the time to research it.  Don't just assume you are correct: (They have over 20 years of experience making games)
