amazing amount of attacks from people that don't even attempt it
amazing amount of attacks from people that don't even attempt it
funny how prepared doesn't get this kind of attacks, even tho he's boxing 10-15 more toons.
ow yeah, i remember now. He didn't brag about it for 3 months prior to doing anything in wow at all. Including (but not exhaustive) saying he was the best boxer, the biggest boxer, and (ironic isn't it) the best equipped computer wise.
Mr Deathwalker did. Repeatedly.

Prepared dosn't really post all that much ...
I'm not claiming to be the best boxer in WoW at all, many many are ahead of me, Im like last right now.
In EQ I really don't see anyone who is claiming to actally be able to beat me. I mean if the New York Giants claim to be the best team in Football and then win the Superbowl, they don't a right to talk, or claim they are the best? If I'm not the top in EQ exactly who is?
I was the biggest boxer, prior to Prepared. I kinda still am though as I have 24 active EQ accounts and 26 active WoW accounts, thats 50 active accounts. Although I can only play 26 at one time, so if he is doing 30-40 at one time well guess I am 2nd.
I still claim the best hardware, surely I would not consider trading my set up for anyones.
The problem with these attacks in non bragging threads is that it derails the original post, as then I respond and a thread that at one time had no trash talk just gets a ton of it. As you can see I just respond to what others talk about (thats how forums work....). If people talk about bios and memory bandwidth then I respond with more talk about bios and memory bandwidth, if people talk about my posting style or claims I defend my posting style or claims.
I recall lots of flames at Prepared's first post about "who boxes the most characters" ... Thats just standard on any forums, new guy posts something contriversial and 20 people attack ... There is a lot less of that on this forum then any other thats for sure.
In it's essence I think it's about frustration. Most of the people launching attacks probably wish they had the funds to 10/20/40-box, but don't. They're capable boxers without having the money to throw away. Sam is the opposite. While at some point he will likely become good, he's not right now and seems to ignore the advice he's getting. I think the closest analogy would be an out-of-work racing car driver watching a rich kid riding around in a Ferrari without having any control over the car, scratching it and driving into other cars. And ignoring the advice of the racing car driver :POriginally Posted by 'keyclone',index.php?page=Thread&postID=161187#pos t161187
Personally I don't care - I think what Sam is doing is great if he has fun with it. Whether it's expensive is always relative to ones income and if he has a lot of money - good for him :-)
Classic - Pyrewood Village, Horde, EU
not sure why people always bring this down to money. I think this whole little sam asventure is just very funny and entertaining.
I tried helping Sam at the beginning, but he was not really looking for advice in the end, he was just asking questions he already had his (questionable) answers to, and spreading his leetness over the forums.
i even provided with a instant respawn area for leevl 62 grinding. But i guess it will be hotfixed before 2012.
It's getting so over the top it's just funny.
It's like your rich kid who's just been told to use the middle pedal to brake or the wheel to turn, and just ends up bying another ferrari after crashing in the wall again.
Can't wait for the power failure next week, and the new patch that will inevitably break all the addons again, and computer number #2 to show a bit more latency than the rest and needs rebuild, and the mouse batteries that die, and the cat the tips over a bottle on the main board, etc etc.
So much talk, so little action.
Thankfully we can alway see the EQ dataz to cover for the WoW ones, lol.
running out of popcorn here

As for a helping hand in this thread, lets come back on topic.
ow, Sam's already decided to replace his boards no matter what other people said. - Working as intended.

As long as you're having fun Sam, it's all good :-)
I sure am.

Excuses are becoming less everyday though. Did an instance last night, didn't go well but Im getting the idea of whats going on. Computer didnt fail so ...
Now how does this work. In a 10-man do you have to be in raid to enter? And then are you able to drop raid and be in 2 groups (for better exp) or are you stuck in raid? Or can you just enter with 2 groups (but then how do you know they go to the same instance?
Keep in mind that I view Prepard as my main competition. Lets say he can do 39, then I am competing (well would really call it competition right now as Im being blown away) against his best 39. In the last 30 days how much stonger has his best 39 become? I don't see you guys jumping on him for "lack of progress".
Keyclone idea is going to be very difficult, my guys way undergeared and going to get hammered by exp mobs before their 5 totems go off. Of course he did suggest a tank in each group. And also 5 totems arn't going to do in the mobs instantly, maybe need 3 casts and dosnt look like all will hold up. Still there is a lot to be said, maybe take in 5, park 4 at zone in, have pally round up 30 mobs pull to zone in, concecrate, kill mobs, leave instance, bring in anouther crew, and take advantage of the "instant respawn" of the instance. Not sure if the pally would be locked out if the other 4 arn't. Still Im moving up to the next dungen and seeing how I do against exp mobs today. Or I need to get some decent gear instead of utter junk.
Ya well good suggestion as to the instant spawn spot, thats the kind of helpfull infos I need.
any group with more than 5 people is a raid.
To create a raid, you first create a group, then go to your raid panel (social) and click convert to raid.
You can convert to raid at any time, but cannot convert back to a party. You need to disband the group and reinvite people (even if there are only 5 people in the raid)
Unless they are speciffically tagged as 'raid instances' (usually level 60 or more) you will be able to enter the instance as a party and create the raid inside when more people join.
Once the leader of the raid enter the instance, other members of the raid/group automatically get into his instance when they go through the portal (unless they are already saved to that instance - again this is only for 'raid' instances and daily heroics)
this is my understanding anyway
If a toon happens to be in a separate instance (for example was already in the instance when he got invited to the group/raid), just zone him out and back in.

I meant to type braggart (a load arrogant boaster: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/braggart) but it must have been a Feudian slip that made me type blaggart (an empty, intrusively informal person: http://wordmint.blogspot.com/2006/07/blaggart.html) they're equivalent in many ways.
You provided more excuses: a pc broke down, Blizzard made a mistake transferring my characters(on an automated system no less), I'm waiting 30 days, etc, etc, etc...

If you are just looking to make some money, stick with gathering professions (herbalism, mining and skinning) and maybe enchanting so you can DE your greens and sell the mats.
All other trade skills are huge money sinks.
If you combine that with cloth sells you will get from instances, you should make a decent amount of gold.
