Well, you should consider yourself lucky getting Ashes after only a couple of months. Grats. :smiley: Even though it's not as rare as it was, it can still take forever to get for some people. Many have given up; many are still farming. It is a cool looking mount though. I don't have it. I have...

I love the older stuff. It may not be as "graphically pleasing" as some of the new stuff is, but it definitely had a lot of style. There are pieces that you can't even get any more as well. Some crafted items can no longer be made. I love wearing the older stuff for looks and for the purpose of...

I can see doing that with a casual guild, but having applications made things easier for us. It was a bit of a streamlining process, so I didn't spend all my game time dealing with drama, having to kick people, worrying about their gear or if they could play. They clicked yes to reading the...

I'm curious. Why is it questionable; have you heard something? Why do you think it doesn't seem likely? If they are already accepting pre-orders, they can't push it back too far. Can they? I would hope not after they have taken people's money. It's not something I would really expect from this...

The only times I can think of that I've lost World of Warcraft authenticator is when I've dc'd during a boss fight or something else "urgent." Then, you're desperately trying to get back in so people don't think you bailed. After a while they changed it so you didn't need to put the number in...

Like I said above, you can currently pre-order it on Amazon. I'm not a fan of the whole pre-order thing, but some people might make an exception for this particular offering. The page I saw says it is set for release on December 29th of this year. If you order in advance, you can lock in the...

That's another thing that could make a difference for your wallet. If you later realize that you didn't really want the game, you'll be glad you didn't spend any money on it (even at a discounted rate). You can always use the money you saved for another game or for something else entirely (new...

It definitely requires a time commitment and a lot of effort. So many people just start a guild and think that all they have to do is pick a cool name and it will just magically thrive on its own. Not so much, unless it's just a "social" guild. Even then, people do expect some input from the...

Yep, and I refuse to pre-order. A few weeks isn't really that bad, but sometimes it takes months to see prices lowered significantly. That can be a little nail biting, but yeah, that kind of money adds up fast. That's what I'm talking about with World of Warcraft. You couldn't wait and remain...

I was a bit older, but yeah, I loved playing Atari. We had many hours of fun with it, and it was so much better than just sitting around watching TV. My brother and I used to have contests playing Space Invaders. He liked Missile Command and Asteroids too. I played Centipede also. I vaguely...

For console games, it depends on how excited we are for a game. We've bought a few upon release. We've also picked up some used ones along the way. We bought the kids a few too. As for World of Warcraft, which I really used to be into, we used to be some of the first to log on for a new expac...

I think they can have a big impact on games sales, either positively or negatively. When you see someone playing and making it look like fun, especially if they show/tell you how you can do it too, I think it encourages people to play. I used to love watching the boss fight videos to learn tips...

See, it's all these creative aspects that make it sound so fun to me. I love making stuff, so building a whole little world sounds great. I was really starting to get into the idea until I was told about it making someone dizzy. I wonder if that applies to the building stuff parts. How do you...

Someone else told me that the game may not be for me. I get motion sickness sometimes with various aspects of certain games. The person told me that Minecraft made them dizzy. That just won't work for me. Is there a way around it? Is it only certain parts of it that might create this issue...

Yeah, you make some great points. That kind of interaction inspires fan loyalty. If people love the game and feel like they are a real part of it, they will be free advertising for you. They will brag it up and want everyone they know to also play the game. Indeed, be open to constructive...

That's true, and it's something we tried to impress upon our members. One person can give a whole guild a bad rep. Recruiting is hard enough without that kind of negativity. Your other reasons are common sense as well. The few rules we had really were just that... common sense. Basically...

I think it's a good idea. It used to feel like the WoW players mattered back when Blizzard did this. Now, they spend more time on social media than they do their own forums. I get that social media is all that these days, but I do think they should grace the players with their presence on their...

I very rarely have time to kill, unless I'm sitting in a waiting room at the doc or something. I used to have a Tetris game on my phone that I played once in a while while waiting. I don't think it's even on the phone I have now. I'll have to look for it again. It's a bit of fun, since I get...

Yep, I think balance is key, @Knightmanx. Too easy is boring. Too hard is frustrating. A balance of hard stuff mixed with some easier stuff to give you a break from time to time, is generally a good way to go. I also prefer that difficulty is measured more by strategy, thinking, learning, and...

It seems like a lot of people choose gaming over other activities because it provides a social outlet. That was one of the big things that drew me in, in the beginning. It was nice having other people to talk to and play with. At the time, we lived in the boonies, so it was a needed outlet. I...
