It's been a long while... RL has kicked in and so I have few hours on
my own.


I see our newsgroups are still overrun with spam :(



Interesting thing this morning... logged into an "expired" character
by mistake and it refreshed... wow!  I refreshed about 30 expired
chars before getting banned by switching too fast.  Has anyone heard
of this recently?


Reg... damn it's been a long while.

Hey Reg! Great to see you buddy!

About the 'expired character' thing, Blizz has changed it so that they still 
stay 'available' for refreshing in perpetuity as long as nobody else has 
used the toon's name. Once a character expires, it's name becomes available 
for recycling. Just so long as it hasn't ben used, you're good to resurect 
it.

I'm pleased that you discovered it for yourself. I made the mistake of 
checking my old mule accounts (some with collections of good stuff, 
including HRs) and deleting them on seeing that they were expired. A week 
later I found out about this new policy of Blizz's. :-(

Happy holidays old friend.

Hey Reg :)
What's new with you? I haven't played a lot of D2 lately, been mostly 
working on my website instead. <g>

Once upon a time - for example, Sun, 23 Dec 2007 23:02:38 +0000 -
there was this guy, or something, called EvilBill
<quake2lives@gmail.com>, and they made us all feel better by saying
the following stuff:

>> I see our newsgroups are still overrun with spam :(

Howdy all. Still hanging around ourselves. Actually I just pulled out
my D2 and had a quick game with my Amazon, Legolassie, the other day.
It's single player, Chaos Empire, Hell difficulty, and she's stuck at
the Claw Viper Temple. Fuck if that's not a deathtrap. I'm collecting
weird herbs and valuable elixirs in the hopes of surviving. All it
takes is one false step in there, and, as Elzar says, BAM!

J and I have been finishing moving into our own place, and we're going
to clear some room on this computer and start up a two-player
connection so we can play D2 CE together. Anybody have any experience
with that? We're thinking some sort of direct wireless connection. My
rig has plenty of space, but this one has the Net connection (not
needed for our intended sort of multiplay, I think) and the virus
protection.

Hopefully that will be safe. I can't help but imagine it as a
metaphorical sailor (this computer) having sex with an underage
schoolgirl (my computer) while wearing a condom (this rig's virus
protection) on its nose.

Merry fucking Christmas! In your face, Jewspam!

Now this is funny. Mickey spoke to Chris the other day, and got to
wondering where you were. He said it was a woman what done you in.

no woman has done me in this time... i have all 4 of my kids now...
without the support of a woman, so i'm quite busy with them.  i saw
Anne the other day and she said mickey was busy buying his half of the
total forum gold in the universe (or something similar... it does
sound like what mickey would be doing).

I need to catch up to him soon... I have decided to move onto the
ladder, albeit a bit late.  I'm not coming home for a few more days,
but i may log on with my laptop if the kids allow me some time.

He has a long way to go then.  For those who use jsp, find this guy's
profile, you can do this from your PM box, username X3LS4.  Here's a
screenshot of it
http://img128.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot020ot9.jpg

That guy has the highest fg I've ever seen.  I've seen a handful with
20k and several with 10k.  Last I saw username mickey1, which was less
than a week ago, he has around 10,500 forum gold (fg).

In West Softcore Ladder, high runes (Vex and above) are 25-30 fg
each.  Shako around 5-8, Pgems 0.5, Um 8-10, Pul 7-8.  So yeah Mickey
is pretty damn rich in fg, but getting to half of total fg should take
him a while.
