Explanation of my Inactivity

[Sindas]

I figure I should explain myself before anyone gives me the boot. I've been almost completely inactive since before christmas. During december, it was mostly because I was simply too busy to play. I then got back ingame for one night, which was fun. It was when they added thievery I think. The next night, I could not get on, and had a weird bug (not going to attempt explaining) for many weeks.

Finally, a new patch fixed it and I could get in game, only to realize my computer can't seem to run the latest patches at all. I have horrible lag/desync and can't even hit anything half the time, let alone get my weapon out in the first place. Another reason I've been absent is some other activities which I cannot explain that have kept me very busy, though I have been keeping up with IRC and the forums.

So, I've finally given up on this piece of crap laptop, as it seems to be a bug magnet no matter what game I play, and bought a new one, which will be shipped out April 5th and hopefully get here a week or so after (hopefully less). So, until I get that new laptop, I will continue to not be very active. After I get it, I will try and be much more active within the guild and finally be able to do my part.*

If anyone is wondering, it's an Asus G73JH-A2.





*As long as no one taps on the glass of the Orca aquarium again.

Perfectly fine. No problem with that.

I have a new desktop. The laptop won't be here for a while, but this computer will do as long as I don't have to go anywhere.

It's an FX6800-01e Gateway desktop. It's sexy. It ran MO on full settings/shadows without any real noticeable fps lag. And I still need to add the extra ram sticks I have.

So, I will be able to play again now. No noticeable bugs on this computer yet, though I was only on long enough for the speeding pigs to piss me off.

You wouldn't have per chance been outside Vadda last night? The pigs were especially bad.

I was outside Fabernum, it was horrible.

Must be the devs way of balancing the game, since resources got reduced in value, everyone switched over to farming animals for money. Now they made the animal impossible to catch. It all make sense now. Perfect balance, lol.
