Its really not that hard to level, so by September i think you'll be golden. That gives time for guilds to grow and prosper. Maybe even have a nice guild city up by the end of the year? SIEGES ANYONE? ;) :thumbsup: I'm not sure if there are any guilds on Tyranny close to that goal yet, but i'm sure its coming.

Menace, i HATE Menace. My guild has them KoS as well....but we are just about the size of a group so we can't do much except pick off a few here and there. Still...we do it.

Truthfully i can't understand anything on those links. Unless you speak that language i doubt it will help. ;)

Let me start by saying not sure about prices, especially canadian prices. I buy everything online. Much cheaper. Optical Drive - Most DVD roms these days will also play CD Roms. Cheap one online i got for like $25 US. Its a DVD/CD Rom drive and burner with Lightscribe (just a fancy burning tool). CPU - I run the Q6600, great chip. HDD - I perfer Western Digital to Seagate, but both are good. 7200rpm is a good all around speed, 750gb is a lot of space. If you want to cut costs a little you could probably step it back to at least a 500gb. RAM - I have GSkill ram, its cheap and works. People say OCZ is good stuff, but i don't like paying for the name on some of these products. I can get just as good performance going for a lesser known/used brand. Mine is PC6400 and i am running 8GB. 4GB is plenty to start. Video Card - Nice choice. I went with budget and got the 8800gt, but the 9800s are good cards. Personally a fan of EVGA over XFX. Stuff you are missing: Power Supply - I don't mind going with a brand here, life of your computer. I'm not sure about the 9800, but check to see if there is a recommended amount of power for it. If i were you i'd look at a 600-650w power supply at least, to be on the safe side. Case - Are you building it yourself? Picking out your own case? You have 2 choices here. Save money and have a boring looking computer, or spend more to have it "pimped out". Your choice doesn't make much difference as long as you get one that you can work in and fit everything in. Motherboard - Another important part of the computer. For the Q6600, make sure the motherboard has a Intel CPU Socket of LGA 775 Thats important or your CPU won't fit. Also make sure it has a PCI Express slot x16 for your video card. Depending on your Optical Drive (Assuming its a SATA drive) you'll want to make sure your motherboard has SATA connections on it. OS - Operating system. XP, Vista...? Guessing you already have a monitor? If not expect to spend a little there. Thats pretty much all you're looking at i do believe, someone correct me if i missed anything. Compatibility can be a [bleep]. Heres just a few things to make sure match: RAM Sockets - DDR2 is 240pin. Make sure your motherboard has 240 pin ram sockets. CPU Socket - Make sure your motherboard is a LGA 775 socket SATA - Make sure motherboard is SATA compatible Vista - Make sure its vista compatible. IF you go vista.

Viacom sucks. Everywhere you turn on youtube now "Video Removed due to copyright infringment - Viacom etc etc blah blah blah" Who cares? Viacom sucks.

Why does everyone call it noobtube seriously? Its in the game, its part of reality, get over it IMO. I use it, i love it....gets you out of binds. Just like i'd use it IRL. Everyone wants an uber realistic, fun, great RPG and then cry about it being realistic....sheesh. You only get a couple rounds anyway and it takes forever to load it. And its not even that accurate. I am just now getting into this game, i love it. Very fun, very realistic. The sounds are great, gameplay is great. The models look good as do the weapons and i love the customization available. Some maps could stand to be bigger IMO though.

Bah VT. ;) Clemson fan myself, so VT is always the pesky team that ruins our football seasons haha.

Truth. Though i wouldn't do it. I'll PM you, don't want to steer the topic off topic to much. :)

Its ok, has its ups and downs like any other job. 5 more years left for me then i'm done.

Before the Military and such i worked for UPS. In other words i broke stuff on a daily basis. Not on purpose, but we worked on time not fragility. And packages will get crushed in the belt loader or dropped from about 18ft up out of the plane. I was the first guy to touch your box after it came off the plane, or when it went on. If your box was the perfect size for the bottom box of the stack, it was going there. And if its small its tossed, literally to the back. Fragile on your package might as well be braille. I actually miss working there, great money and benefits i want that job back.

I've been the gatherer for my group/guild as well. I'm pretty close to those numbers. Its all i've been doing lately. No reason, just felt like it....PvP'd while doing it. I'm running out of bag and bank space!!

Speaking of knockdowns/knockbacks, guy was waiting on a bridge with his mount to kick whoever crossed it off the cliff. I wasn't [developmentally delayed]ed so i crouched and went under him. When he noticed he chased me and ganked me. :(

Use both. Prefer the maturity of facebook compared to myspace. Remember kids, they arn't dangerous unless YOU make them dangerous.

Oh if it were that easy.

I expect this to be out in like 3 years.... Blizz may be big, but any game company undertaking 3 major projects like they are currently is asking to be stretched thin. And possibly not put as much focus on them like they need to. My opinion. Blizz has to much on their plate.

So you are underage and complaining about the government you cannot vote for. NICE! You seem like someone who is a humanitarian....why not die for a just cause? Our allies are just as important as us, why not die for them? Why not die for the citizens we try to protect in other countries? I read a story just yesterday about a Marine winning a Silver Star for running back under fire to pull a couple Iraqi civilians to safety.

I don't know. That would make me think you hate the troops I do hate the troops. Now they're just staying in motels taking a year to look for a Haba Baba-baba-baba guy.They're risk to put their life on the line isn't for our country because Iraq isn't a threat anymore. There's more countries that are in a bigger problem than Iraq. What about Darfur? There was or is beatings going on everyday, but we're not liberating them. How the hell is Darfur (Sudan), a 3rd world country a threat to the US? I just think you don't have the balls to sign up personally. Even during a so called legit war. You'd just rather live in the country and have everything handed to you without helping to have it.

Well in that case... I'll break out my wide angle lens and see if i can get all my other stuff together...

1. You're right. Its much better then the media shows it...they never show the humanitarian actions of our troops. They also don't show some of the sickening videos on the internet of Marines abusing innocent Iraqi civilians or indiscriminately killing Iraqi civilians. [hide=Videos]qBoYaeCsuWc 7FD1jHueZZc {Quite a lot of swearing} 9ML77ev1SDI HyoFwoTQZ6Y [/hide] Eh. How do you know what the intelligence or orders were? You don't. The first video kinda makes me sick. Pansys that are now out of service bringing back the whole 60's protests, living on the streets or in tents. They could be stretching the truth? How do we know? [hide=] 1. You're right. Its much better then the media shows it...they never show the humanitarian actions of our troops. I was talking about a real war like World War II or Vietnam or one with China. Not a phony war like in Iraq The troops suck. The war in Iraq is no longer for protection of our country. Also, you ever heard of Fallujallah, the town in Iraq? Yeah, our so-called troops destroyed the whole city looking for a few insurgents. Real nice. You put so many dozens of people out of houses because a few guys work for the enemy. For real, they don't have enough power to attack us anymore, security has improved so much more after September 11, 2001. Also, the videos show justice. It just proves that any yokel can join the military these days. They're not protecting us anymore. I wish they would just pull out and leave the Iraqis to rebuild. [/hide] So the War in Iraq isn't a war? Seriously? Because to me a "war" is defined as any large scale, violent conflict. The troops suck? Again are you serious??? I take offense to that, and i'm glad you are in the minority. Fallujah, doesn't really ring a bell.......oh yeah....i've been there have you? So called troops? Whats that supposed to mean? For your information Fallujah was, and is one of the most dangerous places in Iraq. How could there only be a few insurgents in the city dubbed the Insurgent stronghold?? We had the most urban combat in that city since Vietnam. TWICE. That was in 2004, 1 year after onset of the war. Seriously just stop talking because you don't know whats going on. I've gotten my boots sandy, i've seen it before. Unlike America Iraq doesn't have multiple races of people. You can't tell friend from foe as easy. And they will turn on you with a drop of a hat. Give some kids candy one day, and they throw a grenade at you the next. You can have a guy work as a translator for you for a good 6 months, but as soon as the insurgents threaten his family, he's now popping shots at you. Fallujah, a few insurgents...HAHAHAHA....its in the Al Anbar and it only has a few insurgents and we destroyed it for the hell of it? Ok....seriously, thats funny.

Yes, yes GWB sure is huge. He almost needs a bigger tub like Taft :roll: Other then bashing the president that you most likely can't, and didn't vote for (for age reasons not party reasons) is there anything else you'd like to add?

Bags, you don't want to know lol. $$$$$ Just wondering for everyone that plays. What guild are you in? How many members? I'm currently in a guild me and some friends are trying to casually build, nothing serious yet. "The Black Legion". If you are in Menace i'm killing you btw. ;)

1. You're right. Its much better then the media shows it...they never show the humanitarian actions of our troops. 2. Did you see the beginning of this war? Seemed like Abrams blowing [cabbage] up everywhere to me. Its bogged down since, but thats the nature of occupation and an occupational war. 3. Grenades are poofy and harmless as they are, only a [developmentally delayed] or [wagon] would fumble and cause unknowing death with a grenade considering it has 3 safeties. Am i hard charging for more war? No. I am a service member but not die hard to head back overseas. Just saying...

Agreed Alienware is just hype, nothing more....though that new curved LCD screen is nice.... Go custom built if possible. Even find someone to build it for you if you buy the parts or tell them what you want.

Eh i'm not to bothered by comments like those. Every country has people like that, just americans will straight out say it and not put on a "nice" face for everyone like Europe. Europe thinks they are high class true "gentlemen". Nothing wrong with it i guess, but it ain't my cup of tea along with the majority of americans. Its kinda like bragging rights in football. The winning team that has been dragging the losing team up and down the field for the past 11 years has the right to talk smack.
