    Making Melee Characters Useful at High Levels

    I find things that really make fighters feel useless are mind altering spells. In the campaign in which I play a fighter, he has been the target of every possible Will-save-or-be-screwed spell so far in the campaign (the party is odd, one fighter/cleric (only 2 levels of cleric, which he never...

    Tolkien Audio Books

    My grandmother has the record version of the Hobbit, that Tolkien read himself. I've not been able to find a copy.

    Star Wars Episode 3 to be darker than any other episode

    I actually didn't like the OT when I was a kid, my parents always watched it, and I thought it was boring. After I saw them when I was a few years older they were great.

    WoW -- an Enduring Nobility thread

    Did they fix Warlocks? I'm sure they did, but I'd like to make sure before I start one. When I played, they didn't even have all of their spells. (Hehe, regards the male characters looking like they could strangle a bull, I usually play female characters, since I'd incredibly picky about how my...

    Star Trek XI: Will they ever learn?

    Mojo, see the "Interesting Enterprise Finale Rumor" thread regards fifth season of Enterprise. Personally, while I see why some people might not have liked the first two seasons, I think the third and fourth seasons are vastly improved. I'm a fan of the history, so I like it anyway.

    Cool, do either of you use Teamspeak? It helps immensely, I find.

    Of course! At least it's critiquing, rather than bashing or such :P

    My feelings exactly. It was horribly *wrong* to see Anakin that way.

    Star Wars Episode 3 to be darker than any other episode

    I think I was 16 at the time. Jar Jar annoyed the crap out of me. So did young Anakin. I don't like child actors (mostly). I think he was rather exaggerated, which bothered me quite a bit. Keep in mind, I'm far from a perfectionist. I enjoyed the Chonicles of Riddick, and several other...

    Star Wars Episode 3 to be darker than any other episode

    Yeah, I realize he was meant to be annoying in Ep 2, however, I don't agree with it. I think it was severely overdone. Most likely done so that the audience wouldn't sympathize with Anakin as he goes Dark Side (it's not the East or the West side! No it's not! It's not the North or the South...

    Job Pay: another etiquitte thread.

    I don't think the comment was meant as a "bash" against Queen Dopplepopolis, but rather a slight show of distaste at the practice. In any case, I'm sure everyone can understand working somewhere you don't necessarily like for the business.

    Star Wars Episode 3 to be darker than any other episode

    Things that ruined Eps 1 and 2 for me were, respectively, corniness (Jar Jar) and the actor that played Anakin (though this last applies to both movies). I was severely annoyed by Anakin during both movies. That said, I enjoyed Ep 2 a fair amount, with above reservations.

    Job Pay: another etiquitte thread.

    Oi, that's rather shady. Still though, congratulations on the raise. I'm likely to ask for one soon myself. (Edit: "Astroturfing" I mean, not posting about said practice.)

    Recommend a RPG PDA

    Repligo handles PDFs excellently :) It comes with a full version of Wordsmith, which is directly compatible with MS Word. I believe it can also view Excel files, but I'm unsure on that. I've played most of those games, and know the developers that worked on (sometimes with me assisting) most...

    Well, in that case I'll see about getting a copy :) I'd prefer playing a human, but that's fine since I know my way around a fair amount (I could travel to dwarf or elf home towns).

    Well, I now feel dumber.....

    I recently bought cable. I use it for the occaisional movie, the History/Science channel and Futurama, Enterprise, Myth Busters and Conan O'Brien. I need to hurry and buy my tv tuner so I don't actually have to watch anything during its schedule time.

    I have my doubts also. Perhaps they'll have the characters bleed blood instead of flowers XD
