02:02.33 | Kirkburn | How do you access PTR copies on an EU account? |
02:02.49 | Kirkburn | I just logged into the account pages, but it's been redesigned and no sign of char copies |
02:04.27 | Kirkburn | nevermind, found it by copying the US path |
02:07.50 | Kirkburn | |Pixel|, any reason why PTR copies don't appear to be linked from the EU account pages? |

02:35.56 | mwj | hi all |
02:36.28 | mwj | i'm looking for some feedback - i've created a wow related site - looking to see what you think |
02:36.51 | mwj | is this an appropriate place to get some feedback? |
02:37.33 | Kirkburn | Link it and we'll see |
02:38.38 | mwj | http://www.mywarcraftjournal.com |
02:38.58 | mwj | it's a place for people to create journals (or blogs) for their characters |
02:39.16 | mwj | will include guides at a later date and reviews of addons |
02:39.22 | mwj | everything will be free |
02:40.04 | Kirkburn | Looks quite interesting |
02:40.48 | mwj | cool, thanks - glad to hear that |
02:41.25 | mwj | i have not really found a site dedicated to character journals |
02:41.52 | mwj | thought it would be interesting to read some of the stories that people post |
02:42.10 | Kirkburn | Def something to advertise to the RP community |
02:42.22 | mwj | yeah, just have to figure out how to do that now |
02:42.28 | Kirkburn | Feel free to add it to the [[fansites]] listings btw |
02:42.37 | mwj | oh, thanks - i'll do that |
02:42.39 | Kirkburn | I would try going to their forums |
02:42.50 | Kirkburn | Some are probably listed on that page too |
02:43.07 | mwj | excellent - i'll check those out as well - i've been struggling with where to advertise |
02:45.21 | mwj | what i do not want to do is copy sites that already exist - so, i've been debating on whether to have forums on the site |
02:51.11 | DuTempete | I would still include forums. You want to have a method of keeping your communigty cohesive, mwj. |
02:54.33 | mwj | true - i just know that there are so many forums out there with good information - hate to "reinvent the wheel" |
02:55.29 | mwj | if i had forums, then i would include sections for leveling tips, profession leveling tips and economy discussions (for legal gold generating ideas) |

03:40.11 | ruprecht | stupid question possibly: is there a section on wowwiki for "things we'd like to see"? i.e. suggestions to Blizz for new content? |
03:44.44 | montagg | Kind of hard to curate that list. I could say I want player housing with a golden toilet, and although it would be a VERY good idea, it might not represent the whole player base. |
03:45.49 | ruprecht | sure, but it's a trigger for Blizz's product development team to think about it. they can always say "crap idea, next agenda item" and move on |
03:46.36 | montagg | ruprecht: Right, but that's more what the suggestion forum is for. Bad ideas sink, good ideas float (sort of). Whereas, on WoWWiki, all ideas (good and bad) would sit, and probably get very little attn from Blizzard. |
03:54.40 | ruprecht | ah ok, I wasn't aware of the suggestion forum. that makes more sense. cheers! |

10:51.49 | Kirkburn|afk | ironic, eh :) |
10:51.54 | Kirkburn|afk | Dunno who did it :P |
10:51.55 | Sky2042 | always. |
10:52.07 | Sky2042 | one of the few words that i /always/ double check. |
10:54.03 | Kirkburn|afk | huh, disagree with these edits - http://www.wowwiki.com/index.php?title=Template%3AFactions&diff=1210335&oldid=1210327 |
10:54.11 | Sky2042 | i also |
10:55.22 | Sky2042 | good faith edits though. |
10:55.33 | Kirkburn|afk | oh yeah, his faction edits were top notch |
10:56.03 | Sky2042 | except where he did the same thing xD |
10:56.57 | Kirkburn|afk | lol |
10:57.04 | Kirkburn|afk | Finally got around to installing the AVT tool |
10:57.32 | Sky2042 | i don't like that it's basically a live version of mikk's bot. |
10:57.39 | Sky2042 | i'd rather be able to see all edits made |
10:57.43 | Sky2042 | but oh well. |
10:57.51 | Kirkburn|afk | Mikk's bot? |
10:58.02 | Kirkburn|afk | There is an "all recent changes" option |
10:58.19 | Sky2042 | yes. i'm pretty sure it still filters away the patrollers group. |
10:58.26 | Kirkburn|afk | And obviously, there's the whole updating every 30 seconds thing |
10:58.30 | Sky2042 | and admins / staff / bureaus. |
10:59.19 | Kirkburn|afk | Mikk's bot? Yeah |
10:59.47 | Sky2042 | no. AVT also does that, even with "All" set |
10:59.53 | Sky2042 | I /think/ |
11:00.53 | Kirkburn|afk | Dunno |
11:01.03 | Kirkburn|afk | Can take a look |
11:02.24 | Kirkburn|afk | Watching the full list to see who comes up |
11:03.59 | Kirkburn|afk | Yeah, it seems to have ignored you |
11:04.10 | Sky2042 | i haven't edited yet o_o |
11:04.25 | Sky2042 | should be in now or so. |
11:08.01 | Kirkburn|afk | You're not there |
11:08.06 | Kirkburn|afk | I assume it ignored admins |
11:08.25 | Kirkburn|afk | Everyone else should be on it though |
11:08.53 | Sky2042 | not if it hasn't changed its behavior from awhile ago. |
11:09.09 | Sky2042 | ignores all patrollers. but can't answer that now :/ |
11:16.58 | Kirkburn|afk | It ignores patrollers? Don't really see that as a problem, but kd3 would know if he added that ... |
11:18.44 | Sky2042 | kd3 just jacked the code from WP :P |
11:20.39 | Kirkburn|afk | I know, so how would it know the patrollers group? |
11:21.21 | Sky2042 | i dunno! |
11:21.27 | Sky2042 | the same way it knows the admin group? |
11:21.43 | Sky2042 | special:listusers probably can be accessed in raw form |
11:22.22 | Kirkburn|afk | Patrollers is a group specifically made for wowwiki |
11:22.54 | Sky2042 | no... |
11:23.18 | Sky2042 | huh |
11:23.23 | Kirkburn|afk | I don't see patrollers on the wikipedia list :P |
11:23.31 | Kirkburn|afk | vlad made it for us a long while back |
11:23.33 | Sky2042 | aye |
11:23.48 | Sky2042 | well, i guess it's synonymous with the rollback group now :P |
11:24.06 | Sky2042 | where did that come from, btw? |
11:24.08 | Sky2042 | o_o |
11:25.07 | Kirkburn|afk | The rollback thing? |
11:25.15 | Sky2042 | ooo... Kosovo declared independance |
11:25.19 | Kirkburn|afk | Ask and ye shall receive :) |
11:25.26 | Sky2042 | Kirkburn|afk: no. where did the idea that patrollers need rollback come from? |
11:25.41 | Kirkburn|afk | Not so much in that case though, given what Serbia and Russia think |
11:26.11 | Kirkburn|afk | It had been requested by more than one person |
11:26.21 | Sky2042 | oh. |
11:26.23 | Sky2042 | huh |
11:26.37 | Kirkburn|afk | The whole idea of the patroller group is to combat vandalism anyway, the same purpose as the rollback button |
11:26.44 | Sky2042 | heh |
11:26.53 | Kirkburn|afk | It's fairly widely given out on Wikipedia |
11:27.04 | Kirkburn|afk | Maybe not quite like candy, but not far off |
11:27.49 | Sky2042 | they only just began allowing non-sysops access to it like, 1 or 2 months ago |
11:28.41 | Dotted | figures Kirkburn|afk |
11:28.55 | Dotted | neither 173.90 or 174.12 works |
11:30.13 | Kirkburn|afk | They are beta |
11:30.30 | Kirkburn|afk | And if you don't download the INF to allow it to work on your PC, won't install either |
11:30.31 | Dotted | howcome the only driver that works for me is a beta :P? |
11:30.47 | Dotted | its not a laptop |
11:31.00 | Dotted | they install fine |
11:31.11 | Kirkburn|afk | Yeah, some are even more restrictive than just laptops |
11:31.37 | Dotted | its not a dell or whatever either |
11:31.47 | Dotted | assembled it myself |
11:31.58 | Kirkburn|afk | Sky2042, I saw the discussions about it - I guess the main opinion was "we can't really justify /not/ giving it to trusted members" |
11:32.28 | Dotted | but as i said, they install fine i just get 100 fps in 3dmark01 rather than the 400 i get using 167.26 |
11:32.36 | Kirkburn|afk | Dotted, yes, you have a lovely epeen, however ... they are still beta drivers, If the ones you had work, just wait for the next final release |
11:32.40 | Sky2042 | Kirkburn|afk: oh, i don't disagree with any of it. i just think it's awfully quick for us to switch also :p |
11:33.05 | Kirkburn|afk | Why? Everyone that's got it, we know :) |
11:33.28 | Dotted | damnit Kirkburn|afk i have tried 2 final releases after 167.26 and they dont work either - and whats epeen got to do with anything? |
11:33.30 | Sky2042 | oh, true. |
11:33.45 | Dotted | you sound like an nvidia support guy :P |
11:33.59 | Kirkburn|afk | Dotted, heh, well I meant you didn't need to tell me who built it. It's restricted by card. |
11:34.26 | Dotted | only if its OEM i'd imagine |
11:34.58 | Kirkburn|afk | Dunno why your FPS are getting trashed so much, v odd |
11:35.04 | Dotted | by saying i assembled it myself i mean that its a retail card so restrictions dont apply to me |
11:35.29 | Dotted | its because the driver thinks the card doesnt get enough power |
11:35.34 | Dotted | and clocks itself down |
11:36.19 | Dotted | but i got a 1kW psu with 35 amps on the +12V rail so thats not the issue, its a driver - and it makes me so freakin pissed |
11:41.00 | Kirkburn|afk | No, I know that, it's the driver |
11:41.20 | Sky2042 | holy. fucking. crap |
11:41.33 | Kirkburn|afk | The restrictions by card I refer to are those listed in that driver's .inf file. That lists the exact cards it can install for. |
11:41.57 | Kirkburn|afk | Some drivers are for a specific card, or series. |
11:42.08 | Kirkburn|afk | Sky2042, ? |
11:43.05 | Sky2042 | one of zeal's defense of his item catting template was that if i wanted to get rid of them, all it was was {{subst:}} |
11:43.14 | Sky2042 | freaking bull. |
11:43.16 | Kirkburn|afk | I thought 174.12 was restricted to the 9xxx series, but I think I misread something |
11:43.49 | Kirkburn|afk | Wouldn't that subst the template, not the resulting categories? |
11:44.29 | Sky2042 | oh yes. it substs the template |
11:44.42 | Sky2042 | http://www.wowwiki.com/index.php?title=Sanguine_Star&diff=1210425&oldid=1149573 |
11:44.53 | Kirkburn|afk | Couldn't the tooltip do the cats, or has that come up previously? |
11:45.32 | Sky2042 | aye, the tooltip could do the cats, its just that no-one implemented them for him. but i'm not sure i want to. |
11:45.40 | Sky2042 | with tooltip transcluded so many places... |
11:46.04 | Kirkburn|afk | Yeah the transclusions are the main problem |
11:46.06 | Sky2042 | end up breaking the wiki every time we edited it. |
11:47.01 | Sky2042 | {{item}} was a stupid idea. |

15:35.51 | pcj | patch 2.3? |
15:36.12 | PhotoJim | 2.4 I assume. |
15:36.22 | pcj | that URL's messed up |
15:36.36 | PhotoJim | unless there's a new 2.3 patch, but that would just be a minor bug fix I assume. |
15:37.07 | PhotoJim | I found a bug in Darkshore last night. there was a rabid thistle bear that was stuck against a tree. if you got close it could injure me, but I couldn't injure it at all. |
15:37.16 | PhotoJim | s/you/I/ |
15:41.32 | equiraptor | Yeah, I've seen that before, PhotoJim. |
15:41.50 | equiraptor | In Darkshore quite a bit, but sometimes in other areas, too. |
15:41.56 | PhotoJim | it was slightly annoying, but running away obviously cured the problem. |

15:42.04 | equiraptor | Yup. |
15:42.07 | equiraptor | Yup. |
15:42.08 | equiraptor | :) |
15:42.10 | PhotoJim | :) |
15:42.35 | equiraptor | "Many years ago, man invented color, which is a wonderful invention" |
15:43.12 | PhotoJim | there was a guy on a photo forum that convinced a bunch of people that Kodak invented colour in about 1920. before that, the world was actually in black and white. these young 'uns these days are gullible. :) |
15:43.29 | equiraptor | heh |
15:43.36 | equiraptor | The bit I quoted is a song lyric. |
15:43.46 | PhotoJim | I hadn't heard that one before. |
15:43.55 | equiraptor | From a type of music I never expected to like, but I'm loving a lot by this particular artist. |
15:44.09 | equiraptor | The artist is "The Pinker Tones". The track is "Many Years Ago" |
15:44.18 | PhotoJim | although I know Paul Simon's "Kodachrome" well. And I have a Nikon camera (nine actually) and some Kodachrome in the chest freezer. |
15:44.24 | PhotoJim | Hmm. The Pinker Tones. Completely new to me. |
15:44.37 | equiraptor | http://youtube.com/watch?v=vShBg0pFbb4 <-- that's the "title" track from their most recent CD (2006) |
15:44.42 | PhotoJim | Cool. |
15:44.58 | equiraptor | i'm really fond of Karma Hunters and Sonido Total as well. Both should be easy to find on youtube - Outstanding has put them up. |
15:45.26 | PhotoJim | You have eclectic musical tastes. |
15:46.04 | equiraptor | I try to like what I like and not like what I don't like, without much worry about genre, etc. :) |
15:46.13 | equiraptor | I was introduced to the group by a video game, of all things. |
15:46.16 | PhotoJim | really, that is how it should be. |
15:46.22 | PhotoJim | that's a curious way to learn about an artist. |
15:46.50 | equiraptor | It is. The video game is Forza Motorsport 2. |
15:47.08 | equiraptor | My boyfriend and I enjoyed the music with it so much, we looked up the songs. |
15:47.40 | PhotoJim | And now you're a happy fan. |
15:47.44 | PhotoJim | So all is good. |
15:47.47 | equiraptor | Yup. :) |
15:48.01 | Dotted | pcj is because the WoR RSS feed contains months old news, so if it says 2.2 or 2.3 it isnt really an error by WoR, but rather [NewsBot] |
15:49.32 | equiraptor | The Pinker Tones really has an amazing array of sounds, just within the one artist. |
15:50.28 | PhotoJim | I have that Pinker Tones video up now. |
15:51.17 | equiraptor | I've been listening to the 30 second snippits on the iTunes store. |
15:52.04 | PhotoJim | I'm old-fashioned. I buy all my music on real CDs. I hate compression artifacts. :) (but I do make MP3s out of them. they are convenient at times; I just want the option of avoiding them.) |
15:52.20 | PhotoJim | This song is somewhat catchy. |
15:52.46 | equiraptor | *nod* I can understand that. |
15:53.44 | equiraptor | On most of the stuff I listen to, I don't notice artifacts in the ACC used by iTunes. |
15:53.52 | PhotoJim | same thing about me that leads me to shoot 4-by-5-inch film at times and not doing digital :) |
15:53.59 | equiraptor | *nod* |
15:54.08 | PhotoJim | you don't really notice it usually, unless you compare uncompressed to compressed back-to-back. |
15:54.19 | PhotoJim | if the compression is mild enough it should be subtle. |
15:54.35 | equiraptor | I hate using point-and-shoot cameras, but I'm not all that picky about resolution. |
15:54.40 | PhotoJim | I listen to satellite radio for convenience. lots of artifacts, but the variety makes it worthwhile. but the first few minutes I listen to it, I can hear the compression. |
15:54.51 | equiraptor | *nod* |
15:55.03 | PhotoJim | yesterday I actually used four 1950s-60s Soviet cameras that I have. tres fun. |
15:55.19 | equiraptor | Oh, I can totally notice the compression on the HD feed from the satellite (TV). |
15:55.22 | equiraptor | Oh, sweet. :) |
15:56.06 | equiraptor | It's really disappointing to me that the "off air" HD signal (free) is better than the satellite feed. |
15:56.22 | PhotoJim | that is a little sad. at least you have an off-air feed. none here yet. |

15:57.15 | equiraptor | I learned to shoot on a K1000. |
15:57.22 | PhotoJim | heh. a lot of people did. |
15:57.26 | PhotoJim | good beginner's camera. |
15:57.28 | equiraptor | Yeah. |
15:57.33 | equiraptor | Now we have a D80, but I don't like the one lense we have for it. |
15:57.40 | PhotoJim | I used one a ton in grade 9. that was the school's camera. and I didn't get my first SLR until later that year. |
15:57.40 | equiraptor | Haven't made the boyfriend buy better lenses yet. |
15:57.49 | PhotoJim | what don't you like about the lens? |
15:58.47 | equiraptor | It's just a lense that tries to do too much. |
15:59.03 | equiraptor | There's distortions at the extreme wide angle, which I end up wanting to use quite a bit. |
15:59.18 | PhotoJim | sounds like you are the type that would enjoy a fixed focal length lens. |
15:59.52 | equiraptor | I am the type who would love to spend a lot of money I don't have and find someone to carry around all my stuff for me. |
15:59.58 | PhotoJim | :) |
16:00.09 | PhotoJim | well, come run away with me. I have tons of lenses. and an exotic Canadian accent. |
16:00.14 | equiraptor | Ooooh. |
16:00.14 | PhotoJim | My wife and your boyfriend need not know. |
16:00.37 | equiraptor | Haha, worksforme! |
16:00.42 | PhotoJim | lol |
16:01.03 | PhotoJim | I have a 17-35/2.8 zoom that I like a lot. low distortion. nice and fast, good for low light. big, but not massive. |
16:01.13 | PhotoJim | cost me a grand though. it's a serious hobby. |
16:01.31 | PhotoJim | on film it's really wide. on digital it's reasonably wide but not as wide. |

16:02.28 | equiraptor | Sory, I know, they're close. but I HATE pink. |
16:02.36 | PhotoJim | You are quite right. It's purplish. |

16:12.21 | PhotoJim | that sounds insulting almost. :) |
16:12.26 | equiraptor | haha :) |
16:12.43 | PhotoJim | I actually thought when you were mentioning the K1000 that you might be older than you appear to be. |
16:12.57 | PhotoJim | I was thinking you were in your 30s, but I'm guessing now you're in your 20s. |
16:13.01 | equiraptor | They said no, they said they were going to call it the full adult form, because of how many joints are affected and the severity of onset. |

16:16.03 | PhotoJim | apparently not :) |
16:16.11 | PhotoJim | and you are 25. most people at age 25 have some financial issues. |

16:17.15 | equiraptor | And, my RA isn't that bad, overall. It's just flaring right now. |

16:18.48 | equiraptor | I've owned or "owned" two automatics. Out of.... 5 |
16:19.00 | PhotoJim | my Protege got totalled off last summer (I still miss that car) and we got an '07 Accord EX-L. I insisted on another stick. What a nice car to drive. |
16:19.08 | equiraptor | *nod* |

16:24.44 | equiraptor | And a Mini would be the "it's a crappy day" street car. |
16:24.50 | PhotoJim | I put some firmer struts into it and it handles a lot better than it ever did. |
16:24.58 | PhotoJim | I've never heard of an Ariel Atom. |
16:25.02 | equiraptor | Potentially and alternate autocross car, if the CSP Miata is out for a bit. |
16:25.07 | PhotoJim | that's more than a "crappy day" car. :) |
16:25.13 | PhotoJim | CSP? |
16:25.17 | equiraptor | It's essentially an open wheel track car. |
16:25.31 | equiraptor | It's from the UK. |
16:25.45 | PhotoJim | cool. |
16:25.46 | equiraptor | CSP stands for C Street Prepared. It's an autocross class for slightly modified cars. |

16:26.37 | PhotoJim | Point taken. :) |
16:27.00 | PhotoJim | Alright. You fondle your '96 MX-5. I'll fondle my Bronica SQ-A with 120 back, prism finder and 50/3.5 PS. :) |

16:29.17 | equiraptor | I'm hard on my cars. Very, very hard on my cars. And I give them the best of maintenance. And they thrive. |
16:29.23 | equiraptor | Well, ok, the automatic camry didn't. |
16:29.29 | equiraptor | Neither did the automatic sable. |
16:29.38 | equiraptor | But the MX-5s thrive with that kind of treatment. |
16:29.57 | PhotoJim | if they're well maintained, they'll be fine. I agree. |
16:30.25 | PhotoJim | the Camry is a bit of a surprise, but the Sable, well, babying it probably wouldn't have made it thrive either. :) |
16:30.30 | equiraptor | *nod* The newer one will be switching to a synthetic diff fluid before the next track day. It's currently running racing brake fluid. |
16:30.34 | equiraptor | Yup. Yup. |
16:30.53 | equiraptor | The manual Camrys have dealth with my treatment just fine. It's the automatic transmission that can't take it. |
16:31.01 | PhotoJim | Toyotas are often boring, but they are built to last. (engine sludge problems on recent models notwithstanding) |

16:31.18 | equiraptor | That they are. |
16:31.46 | equiraptor | The automatic trannies can't handle my shifting demands, though. None of the automatic transmission cars I've driven could. |
16:31.53 | equiraptor | Oh, I did snap a rear sway bar on one of the Camrys once. |
16:31.55 | PhotoJim | that's why I like Hondas and Mazdas. They are built to be fun to drive. Moreso the Mazda, but the Accord is more fun to drive than the 6, even if the 3 kicks the Civic's *cough*. |
16:31.59 | PhotoJim | ouch. |
16:32.11 | equiraptor | Mazdaspeed3++ |
16:32.17 | PhotoJim | anyone who knows what they are doing should have a stick anyway, except for drag racing. |
16:32.21 | PhotoJim | Yes, those cars go like stink. |
16:32.37 | equiraptor | I know two people who bought them. One is disappointed.... |
16:32.46 | PhotoJim | how so? |
16:32.57 | equiraptor | He wanted an Elise, but couldn't afford it at the time, and his wife wanted him to get something with a backseat. |
16:33.02 | PhotoJim | ahh. |
16:33.15 | pcj | lol |
16:33.16 | PhotoJim | I am my own child. The back seat is for friends, not rug rats. :) |
16:33.17 | equiraptor | He's happy with it for what it is, but he has a better paying job now. I'm hoping he'll be able to convince his wife that one car with a backseat is enough. |
16:33.37 | equiraptor | Yeah, they have no kids. And we (their friends) all love our cars too much to pile into one! |
16:34.26 | equiraptor | We once went somewhere in 3 cars, even though we could have fit in 1. An MR2 Spyder, ///M3, and a 3 series (the 3 series was a loaner while the ///M Roadster was worked on) |
16:34.40 | PhotoJim | a 3 series is not that horrid. |
16:34.45 | equiraptor | I don't understand why Brian wanted us to bring the 3 series. |
16:34.50 | PhotoJim | hmm. |
16:34.57 | equiraptor | Well, yeah, but we all could have fit in the ///M3! |
16:35.20 | equiraptor | I wanted a ride in the Spyder, which I'd never been in at the time. And Jack couldn't not drive the M3. |
16:35.36 | PhotoJim | I understand that thinking. |
16:35.45 | PhotoJim | this is what consumes me to take seven cameras with me when I go somewhere. |
16:35.50 | equiraptor | *nod* |
16:35.52 | PhotoJim | "But I might want to use a rangefinder..." |
16:35.58 | PhotoJim | Same mentality I think. :) |
16:36.07 | equiraptor | Since then, the Spyder owner bought a Z4, the M3 owner bought a Z4M, and the M Roadster owner bought a 911. |
16:36.53 | equiraptor | Only one of the three new cars has seen a track. Though that should increase to 2 come March. |
16:37.02 | PhotoJim | cool. |
16:37.47 | PhotoJim | what servers do you play WoW on btw? |
16:37.58 | equiraptor | Mostly Whisperwind. |
16:38.07 | equiraptor | (Alliance) |
16:38.19 | equiraptor | My boyfriend and I are trying a PvP Horde experiment on Kalecgos, with friends. |
16:38.38 | equiraptor | Yes, we both rolled blood elves. Yes, we're horrible Alliance coming over to Horde on BEs. Yes, we are the spawn of the devil. |
16:38.50 | PhotoJim | my main and primary alt are on Gnomeregan (Alliance). I have an Alliance alt on Thaurissan (Oceanic PvP... I was curious if it would perform ok - it does), and a Horde on The Scryers (RP PvE). |
16:39.02 | equiraptor | *nod* |
16:39.05 | equiraptor | do you enjoy the RP? |
16:39.07 | PhotoJim | oh, that sounds quite fun. |
16:39.16 | PhotoJim | honestly, I haven't found that people do much RPing. I was a little disappointed. |
16:39.26 | PhotoJim | but I'm only at about fourth level. I need to give it more of a try. |
16:39.30 | equiraptor | *nod* |
16:39.38 | equiraptor | I hear the RP doesn't really start until at least level 20. |
16:39.46 | PhotoJim | that could well be. |
16:39.47 | equiraptor | The "idiots" and "n00bs" give up by then, apparently. |
16:39.49 | PhotoJim | get rid of the n00bs. |
16:40.11 | equiraptor | almost-jynx. :-P |
16:40.15 | equiraptor | Maybe we should run away together... |
16:40.17 | PhotoJim | :) |
16:40.21 | PhotoJim | maybe... |
16:40.38 | equiraptor | You can photo my racing? :D |
16:40.42 | PhotoJim | :) |
16:40.53 | PhotoJim | I'll be your official photographer, if you'll let me drive your MX-5 occasionally :) |
16:40.59 | PhotoJim | I promise to be no harder on her than you are. |
16:41.02 | equiraptor | Hahaha! |
16:41.07 | equiraptor | worksforme. |
16:41.30 | PhotoJim | andformetoo. |
16:41.35 | equiraptor | I'm thinking about letting one of the guys at the shop co-drive him (Vikra is a he, I think - the '06. Mika, the '94, is a she) |
16:41.46 | PhotoJim | I stand corrected. |
16:41.53 | PhotoJim | I always feminize my cars. Can't explain why. |
16:42.09 | equiraptor | He drove... something. I forget which... and said it handled well. The owner wants him to think it handles better than mine. |
16:42.28 | PhotoJim | Ahh. A comparison. |
16:42.36 | equiraptor | *nod* Mika took a long time to tell me. She's definiely a tough girl. |
16:42.54 | equiraptor | Vikra, however, has a growling voice and a tough attitude. That deep voice just has to be male. |
16:42.58 | equiraptor | (aftermarket exhaust) |
16:43.01 | PhotoJim | Understood. |
16:43.16 | PhotoJim | My cars thus far are nameless. Cameras too. Computers are named though. |
16:43.24 | PhotoJim | Vikra is a good name. |
16:43.28 | equiraptor | Computers seem to beg for nmes. At least OSes do. |
16:43.47 | equiraptor | The name exposes my excessive nerdery. His full name is Vikra'kan. |
16:43.59 | PhotoJim | I'm a big fan of nerdery. |
16:44.00 | equiraptor | As best as I can tell, that's esssentiall "Green Jewel" in Minbari. |
16:44.05 | PhotoJim | Minbari? |
16:44.26 | equiraptor | A race from Babylon 5 |
16:44.32 | equiraptor | Sci fi. :) |
16:45.00 | PhotoJim | I need to watch that series. |
16:45.33 | PhotoJim | I was an Amiga geek, and the first season was done on the Amiga. |
16:45.47 | equiraptor | It's a great show. It starts slow, but if you can make it to the third episode of season 2, I predict you will be hooked. |
16:45.52 | equiraptor | Oh, cool! |
16:46.16 | PhotoJim | My first computer was a Commodore 64, in 1984. |
16:46.21 | PhotoJim | lol |
16:46.30 | PhotoJim | n00b, but ky00t n00b |
16:46.36 | equiraptor | Ah! Nugget (my beau) beats you! His first was in '79. |
16:46.38 | equiraptor | An atari, though. |
16:46.50 | PhotoJim | well, I was poor. :) |
16:47.05 | equiraptor | He was 9 years old. |
16:47.09 | PhotoJim | '79 is early to have a computer though. |
16:47.36 | PhotoJim | the Atari was a better home choice in '79 than the Commodore was. |
16:47.43 | equiraptor | Dad's a lawyer, though. And from my understanding, was already doing well. |
16:47.45 | PhotoJim | the VIC-20 didn't come out until '80. |
16:47.58 | PhotoJim | cool. the legal profession is an interesting one. |
16:48.11 | equiraptor | It is, and his father is an interesting man. |
16:48.27 | equiraptor | Specializes in intellectual property, especially as it relates to the internet. |
16:48.43 | PhotoJim | my father-in-law was the engineer that deployed the first fibre-optic telephone network in North America. he didn't get rich, but that's still pretty cool. |
16:48.49 | PhotoJim | intellectual property is very interesting. |
16:49.01 | equiraptor | That's definitely very cool. |
16:49.28 | PhotoJim | and that network later, with upgrades, became the first broadband network available to consumers in North America, so he really started something cool. |
16:49.34 | PhotoJim | I use their biggest competitor. I have no shame. ;) |
16:49.36 | equiraptor | Oh! Nugget.dad has a bugeye sprite! |
16:49.38 | equiraptor | Haha |
16:49.48 | PhotoJim | bugeye sprite? |
16:50.25 | equiraptor | Yeah. A specific generation of Austin Healey Sprite is called the bugeye |
16:50.30 | PhotoJim | cool. |
16:50.48 | equiraptor | http://128.83.80.200/taco/bugeye.jpg |
16:51.36 | PhotoJim | aptly named. |
16:51.39 | PhotoJim | very interesting looking. |
16:52.18 | equiraptor | Yes. |
16:52.30 | equiraptor | Very much a classic british roadster. |
16:52.38 | equiraptor | It makes a Miata look monstrously huge. |
16:52.57 | *** join/#wowwiki Paradox (n=Paradox@cpc1-brmb4-0-0-cust549.bagu.cable.ntl.com) |
16:53.11 | PhotoJim | indeed. different animals. :) |
16:53.33 | equiraptor | And yet the British roadster is the inspiration for the Miata. :) |
16:53.42 | PhotoJim | hard to see it. :) |
16:54.09 | equiraptor | The elan is the inspiration for the exterior styling, the MGB for the interior styling. |
16:54.18 | equiraptor | http://www.seriouswheels.com/pics-1970-1979/1971-Lotus-Elan-S4-red-fa-lr.jpg |
16:54.44 | PhotoJim | that, I can see now. |
16:54.47 | PhotoJim | it is Miata-esque. |
16:55.09 | equiraptor | Mazda bought two Elans while designing the Miata. |
16:56.01 | equiraptor | The original goal that spawned the Miata was "LWS" - light weight sportscar. When Mazda headquarters selected the front engined RWD layout presented by the California design team, it morphed to a modern incarnation of the classic british roadster. |
16:56.41 | PhotoJim | that explains why the release of British racing green as a colour was so fitting. |
16:56.49 | PhotoJim | I'd better get going. I still haven't showered. :) |
16:56.53 | PhotoJim | I wasn't planning to stay so long :) |
16:56.56 | equiraptor | And that's what the original 1.6L MX-5s are. Take a british car guy, put him in an MX-5, and he'll start wondering why there's not a puddle of oil under it. |
16:57.02 | equiraptor | Haha,ok. |
16:57.10 | PhotoJim | :) because it's a British sports car, built right. |
16:57.13 | equiraptor | It was great talking with you. :) |
16:57.16 | PhotoJim | by non-British people :) |
16:57.17 | equiraptor | Exactly! :D |
16:57.19 | equiraptor | hehe |
16:57.22 | PhotoJim | it was equally great talking to you :) |
16:57.28 | PhotoJim | talk again soon. |

20:32.59 | Logestic | Hello. :) |
20:33.18 | equiraptor | Hello. |
20:33.40 | Logestic | I'm new to WoW. Just thought I'd pop on IRC and say hello. :) |
20:33.51 | equiraptor | Well... uh... Hello there! |
20:34.10 | equiraptor | I've been playing WoW since March 13th, 2005. I think 2005, at least. |
20:34.33 | Logestic | Heh. I am a retired Guild Wars player. |
20:34.47 | equiraptor | How new are you? Few weeks, few months? Level 20? 30? 2? :) |
20:34.48 | Logestic | I've lost all my drive to even open the GW client. So I figured I'd try WoW |
20:35.04 | Logestic | Try...I just bought the game/expansion. |
20:35.07 | equiraptor | haha :) |
20:35.09 | equiraptor | Yay! |
20:35.16 | equiraptor | Fresh meat! *chomp* |
20:35.25 | equiraptor | Wait, what am I doing? I'm not undead... |
20:35.36 | Logestic | Hah, read that. |
20:35.45 | Logestic | Stupid enter key. |
20:35.54 | Logestic | right next to the " it is. |
20:36.03 | equiraptor | :-P |
20:36.08 | equiraptor | My enter key is right next to my -. |
20:37.02 | equiraptor | :( |
20:37.16 | Logestic | Yeah, I've been trying to be a good n00b, so I was reading the newbie guide. |
20:37.18 | equiraptor | Have you thought about was classes you want to play? |
20:37.22 | equiraptor | Oooh |
20:37.29 | Logestic | I was "thinking" Logestic. |
20:37.32 | Logestic | Err... LOL |
20:37.35 | Logestic | Brain farrt. |
20:37.39 | equiraptor | LOLADIN! |
20:37.44 | Logestic | No way. |
20:37.49 | equiraptor | Hahahaha |
20:37.56 | Logestic | As a former GW player, I heard the stories.... |
20:38.12 | Logestic | There is no. F--king. Way. I'll play a loladin. |
20:38.18 | equiraptor | Hah |
20:38.25 | equiraptor | Can't stand the thing. |
20:38.27 | Logestic | I was thinkin' Mage. |
20:38.36 | equiraptor | Ah, nice. What race? |
20:38.58 | Logestic | I don't know, was thinking blood elf, but heard they're totally whored out. |
20:39.15 | [NewsBot] | WoW Insider: Arena Season 4: Brutal Gladiator - http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/02/18/arena-season-4-brutal-gladiator/ |
20:39.20 | equiraptor | I just had a blood elf reach 21, and the BE starting areas are truly great. |
20:39.37 | equiraptor | You could, of course, bring over an Undead or Troll mage. |
20:39.44 | equiraptor | Undead would be easier. |
20:39.57 | myke54142 | troll is just as easy actually |
20:40.00 | Logestic | This silly Burning Crusade download is taking forever. |
20:40.02 | Logestic | >_> |
20:40.14 | equiraptor | Meh, troll's like, 5 minutes "harder". |
20:40.46 | myke54142 | tauren may actually be hard |
20:40.47 | equiraptor | Each race has a starting area (trolls and orcs share one, as dwarfs and gnomes do). |
20:41.07 | Logestic | Uh-huh... |
20:41.10 | Logestic | I knew that. |
20:41.14 | equiraptor | The blood elf starting area (especially the levels 10-20 area) are from Burning Crusade instead of the original game. |
20:41.34 | equiraptor | Blizzard learned a lot between launch and TBC, and TBC areas are much "better" than original areas. |
20:41.38 | Logestic | Actually, I just bought the retail version, I had used a trial version. :P |
20:41.45 | equiraptor | A richer experience. |
20:41.59 | Logestic | But my trial was like.. dead for 2 weeks. |
20:42.29 | Logestic | But.. me in my infinite wisdom, kept the client installed on my off-board hard drive incase I ever did this. |
20:43.30 | equiraptor | You can go to another race's starting area annd do their starting quests. So if you worry that BE is overplayed, but want to play a mage and like the BE starting zones, you could make a troll or undead mage and just take it over to the BE area. |
20:43.33 | Logestic | I still don't know... I want to be a mage, and that's as far as I got. |
20:43.46 | equiraptor | Some of the quests are occasionally race-dependant, so I might get to level 5 or 10 before going over. |
20:44.03 | equiraptor | And that might be more of a challenge for your "first" character, but... meh, whatever. |
20:44.09 | Logestic | Well.. I'd really like to play with someone when I start. :P |
20:44.16 | equiraptor | You can have so many characters in this game, and getting to 20 takes so little time... |
20:44.30 | equiraptor | Aaaah, I forget about that aspect. |
20:44.30 | Logestic | Always helps to have a mentor there, :) |
20:44.32 | equiraptor | I'm a soloer. |
20:44.51 | equiraptor | I tried raiding. Didn't like waiting around on other people. so I solo level. And I enjoy it. |
20:45.06 | myke54142 | yeah but once you hit 70 you can't level anymore |
20:45.17 | Logestic | Thats what they want you to think. |
20:45.19 | equiraptor | Sure you can. It just requires another character. |
20:45.27 | equiraptor | Until the next expansion. |
20:45.41 | myke54142 | but there's only so many things you can do before you're redoing quests |
20:45.55 | myke54142 | and by the time you hit 70 you've seen almost all of the map and most of the isntances |
20:45.57 | Logestic | so, I herd about this "Night Elf Mohawk" |
20:46.07 | equiraptor | Actually, I haven't seen most of the instances. |
20:46.12 | equiraptor | Like I said, I'm a soloer. |
20:46.31 | Logestic | You kill wild boars to level 70? |
20:46.51 | equiraptor | I don't mind doing the quests again. I find different ways to do them. I increase my efficiency, or do something else "different". It just being a different class makes it at least a bit different. |
20:46.56 | equiraptor | Logestic: Effectively, yeah. :-P |
20:47.11 | Logestic | Awesome. |
20:47.20 | Logestic | C'mere Bacon with legs. GET in mah belly. |
20:47.34 | myke54142 | actually that wild boars thing from south park wouldn't really work |
20:47.38 | equiraptor | To 70, to 65, to 61, to 54, 50, 50, 50, 48, 33, 30, 24, 23.... |
20:47.47 | equiraptor | Er, I have a lot of characters. :) |
20:47.47 | Logestic | I also read that mages are often called upon to make water/food. Does it get annoying? |
20:48.02 | equiraptor | You do have to change mobs. You need to kill mobs closer to your own level. |
20:48.32 | equiraptor | I can't speak to that. It hasn't annoyed any of my mages, but my highest level mage is 50. It tends to be most annoying for max-level characters. |
20:48.34 | myke54142 | not really, you do that at the beginning of the dungeon run |
20:48.45 | myke54142 | just part of the prepwork |
20:50.15 | Logestic | Of course, you could just make it really easy and macro the whole damned process... |
20:50.45 | myke54142 | i haven't used macros yet |
20:51.19 | myke54142 | they don't really let you fully automate the game |
20:51.44 | myke54142 | i don't think conjuring food and water is really very hard anyway |
20:51.49 | Logestic | But they do let you bing a certain set of actions to an easy command? |
20:51.57 | myke54142 | yeah |

23:43.51 | Sky2042 | did that really ban me?... |
23:43.57 | foxlit | Yes |
23:44.19 | foxlit | Bans don't kick people out of channels, though |
23:44.28 | Sky2042 | hah |
23:44.30 | foxlit | So if you're still in here, you can stay |
23:44.38 | Sky2042 | ah |
23:44.58 | foxlit | Hence kickbans -- kicking people from the channel and preventing them from rejoining |
23:45.22 | Sky2042 | <PROTECTED> |
23:45.35 | Sky2042 | or both one after another? |

23:47.16 | Sky2042 | Dotted: AFKDuTempete |
23:48.01 | Sky2042 | and probably "Volven" is probably "Volus" |
23:48.05 | Sky2042 | but i'm not sure about that. |
23:48.30 | Sky2042 | I wonder what the formula for that curve is. |
23:50.39 | [NewsBot] | just read the logs, and volven is most likely volus |
