I guess I was hoping it'd last a bit longer, but I'm glad the massive inflation has been curbed. Now I can pivot to a more useful crew skill and develop my biochem and cybernetics without feeling guilty!

I've loved playing with all of you, and I enjoy the basic game, but I just don't enjoy this game enough to keep spending my time or money. I've got a new house with lots of projects in mind, hobbies that have been languishing, and a lot of stuff to get done before we become foster parents in...

HAX on the Toronto stock exchange. No, it's not just because it's a computer geek term. It's because it's the first ever actively managed ETF. Please don't make me explain why that's funny.

After running through the easy bit of Bastion Stair last night, I got to thinking how those lesser wards aren't worth a lot since most people should be able to get 3+ lesser wards just through regular keep taking. That's not to say that they're worthless, just pretty simple to grind in PuGs...

You'll have to set your tithe one last time, but the rate now stays set permanently once you've set it. If you don't need more gold now, consider upping your tithe to help the guild save for keep costs in the future when they become upgradeable! The tithes and taxes only take a portion of...

* A Pale Eye Burglar that has been spotted skulking around the docks in Altdorf has been persuaded to move along.

We've separated all non-officers into mains and alts (main and alternate characters) to make it easier to keep track of the number of members. Of course, the main challenge here is trying to figure out what's a main and what's an alt in the first place! I assigned most of the members on...

Next Monday, we'll have a T4 PQ run starting around 7:00PM Central (5:00 Pacific, 8:00 Eastern). We'll probably start with ch16 in Dwarf or Human areas, but suggestions or requests are certainly welcome! The goal here is to have fun as a guild while actually finishing some PQs that we'd...

As we move toward the end of T3 and into T4 where excelling at open RvR won't simply be a matter of gaining a couple levels and trying again, I'm going to start coordinating a stash of consumables for major guild events. In particular, we're going to need lots of talismans because they tend...

Archmage Healing I'm definitely not much of a min/maxer but I love standing on a rock overlooking a battle and nudging the outcome in our favor. I don't go through different specs or gear and compare, but I've routinely come out on top of the healing charts (hit my first 150k last night!)...

I just wanted to warn you that although I signed up for Gunbad tonight, I won't be able to make it since I'll be at my first rehearsal for Fiddler on the Roof. I'll miss it, but I've enjoyed guild scenarios and world PvP more than I ever enjoyed PvE in WoW so I'll probably survive. Have fun!

This is utterly unofficial, but I thought I'd throw it out there to inform the fellow guildies even if nobody else thinks tithing is a good idea. We get a lot of gold in WAR. At first, you start saving for that lvl 20 mount, but when I hit 20 with 50+ gold, I knew it wasn't a big deal. In...

http://herald.warhammeronline.com/warherald/NewsArticle.war?id=334 Don't have to be in a specific zone do join a specific scenario! Not a bad development... maybe now the human scenarios won't be so overpopulated and guildies will actually run them with me without fearing the mob of...

Lately, I've been making level 15+ potions I can't use so I figured I'd throw some in the guild bank. There are some level 10 pots as well as 15, 20 and even 30 so they might not all be useful for a while. Feel free to grab them if you can use 'em -- that's what they're there for and they're...

Gamestop sent me and I think at least one other person a CE code by mistake. If you preordered SE, it's worth a try to see if you can get in now.

For all you fellows that have skipped the Beta (so don't have the 10GB Beta download) but have headstart codes, consider downloading the files through a torrent server rather than fileplanet. Fileplanet could leave you in the queue for a day or two whereas if you pick a good torrent, you can...

I hate the start menu in Windows. Instead of catagorizing by program function as many versions of Linux do, windows organizes by COMPANY (not even program) and I've had up to four or even five columns on my start menu! Well, there's a solution. Launchy is a free, open source keystroke...

Wouldn't it be best to choose a server that is NOT on the headstart list? I mean, it would set some of us back by 2-4 days, but we would have a MUCH better chance of picking a server with lower population so we don't get 1hr+ wait times to join. Also, it'd be good to have a couple days to...
