You dont need a PM to know who attacked you click on your name at the top of the screen that says Logged in as: Everything you need to know is at the bottom of the page it takes you to as long as you go look within 2.5 or 3hrs of the attack.

Im looking for 2-3 of these so I can play around with some templates a bit. Please shoot me an ICQ if you have one for sale!

First Richard must have a lot of gold coins in his bank account to throw a bash like this. Second ya gotta wonder what makes this guy tick? This is certainly not your average birthday party but then again this is Lord British and there is nothing normal about that!!! What an imagination and falre for life this guy has! Anyway enjoy the link. Richard Garriot celebrates his birthday in grand style!!

Came across this little video and thought most people here might find it a bit humorous; I know I did! Magic Missles, Demon God of Conquest and the Reno Police

I might pick up on D&D leadership. Depends how things are at the time of launch. I know for a fact I want to be in a guild fromt he start and I know I want to roleplay in that game. Its going to be pretty good if they do everything they say they are and from the looks of the trailer for it its going to be pretty to watch/play as well.

I bet she wouldnt unless you had one of those cool matching red Addidas sweatsuits man. Oh yeah those vids are hilarious. BOOM Headshot.... Frag out! And oh yeah my name is actually Duane but the white barbarians call me Dave!

A cheap alternative for those on a limited budget is this nifty little program called Lashback. While the newest version of Outlook 2003 has a built in spamfilter not everyone has 2003 or uses the full blown version of Outlook. Lashback will work with any version of Outlook or Outlook Express. Anyway it seems to work pretty well and it verifies if the unsubscribe link in the spam mails really will unsubscribe you or if it will just result in more...you guessed it SPAM. So far I like it and I might actually pay for the deluxe version..... Oh yeah there is a basic version which works with any current spam filtering applications you have or for those without any at all youll want the advanced. Both have a 14 day free trail! Lashback Spam Detector and Eliminator for Outlook and Outlook Express P.S. It is pretty easy to setup but if you have questions post em and I'll try to help out with it. Also thier little intro/help movie and faq section should answer just about any question people have as well.

HAHA guy in backround is playing Counterstrike!!!

Moving to sticky under leaders announcements. Also is there a runebook anywhere that has runes to thier various cities? Might help foster interaction.

MAN COMMITS SUICIDE AFTER LEARNING HARRY POTTER SPOILER ‘I No Longer Have a Reason to Live,’ Says Despondent Potter Fan A rabid Harry Potter fan took his life yesterday after inadvertently learning a plot spoiler from the soon-to-be-released J.K. Rowling opus, “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.” Jude Ralston, 32, of Hudson, Ohio left a suicide note indicating that since overhearing the plot spoiler at a shopping mall earlier in the day, “I no longer have a reason to live.” Family and friends who gathered for a candlelight memorial outside Mr. Ralston’s house remembered a man who seemed to live only for Harry Potter – and wondered if they could have done anything to prevent his tragic fate. “When Jude got that vanity license plate that said ‘Hogwarts,’ that seemed harmless enough,” said Polly Clovis, who attended Model U.N. with Mr. Ralston while the two were in high school. “But when he started wearing that wizard hat around town, we really should have seen that as a cry for help.” According to friends of Mr. Ralston, the Potter fanatic had done everything in his power to protect himself from stumbling across Potter plot spoilers, even disconnecting his computer from the Internet and avoiding his favorite vintage comic book store. Ms. Clovis said that she hoped Mr. Ralston’s death would cause federal authorities to tighten the flow of Harry Potter plot information to prevent similar tragedies from taking place. “In my heart I believe that could have saved Jude’s life, even if he didn’t have one,” she said. Elsewhere, President Bush called the jailing of a New York Times reporter “a positive step,” but warned that many other reporters were still at large.

Evil Item Update Jul 8 2005 12:14AM GMT (PST +08:00) We are working on a timeline to re-release the items back into the game after they are destroyed. The code you used to get an item the first time around will work exactly the same way. Also, you’ll be able to retrieve the code from the same giveaway webpage when it becomes active again. We are currently working on a compensation plan for those people who traded items or gold legitimately for Evil Items. We added a special tracking code to the items so we can tell who traded the items to whom, which will help with the compensation process. Please note, anyone caught trying to lie or scam a support representative will be subject to penalties, including account termination. We will post more details as we finalize the plan. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The new evil items were more evil than they had intended..... Wonder what bug someone found to use with em. I wonder what form of compensation they are going to offer people who bought items from others as they promised on thier website.

That is one hell of a punchline

Bah go to uo.com and click the link.....actually here click this link below you lazy mage!!! FAQ including pictures of the new items Oh and for those who are to lay to follow the links there *cough Bal* here is the link to get your promo code Recieve your code for evil decor gifts here P.S. Bal you are having way too much fun with your emote icons!!!

This world is going to hell fast for certain Bal. Its more violent than ever. People may claim that its no worse than ever and that the media hype makes us think there is more but I do not believe this. It truely is sad that the gut instict of man when faced with confrontation or difficulty is to kill another.....

A pity I had actually considered hauling a hundred of my crappy weapon bods and some ingots out to try and force some high end bods but if they are still as rare as the fabled pink elephant I will just let the people who run 8 accounts full of smiths earn em and hope that they sell them for less than they previously have.

Since the changes in the BoD system have high end runics become more plentiful? Have they become cheaper to buy? I really wanna swing a verite or valorite or play with a barbed but I just can't bring myself to collect the 100,000,000 BoDs I'd need to get one.

Anyone know exactly when these are going live? Looks like ill need to redesign my home to make these fit into the scheme of things! Edit - Woot They went live today it seems. I went to log in this morning and was greeted with the splash screen durning patch saying Evil Decor gifts are here! I got the throne and will try to snag the altar too. I considered getting the mirror but my ugly mug would just crack it!! I know Tok will get the pixies cause he loves those little winged beasts so much. What is everyone else going to get?

Well seems more people have decided that the slaughter of innocents is the answer to thier problems. What the hell is the matter with people these days? So far as I know noone has claimed responsibility but does it even really matter? It is such a shame that people just can not get along. Well no surprise just updated seems like its Al Quida once again........

Happy 4th of July to everyone. Remember keep it safe with those fireworks and enjoy those barbeques!!!!

What app is using all the cycles? You should be able to see what is doing this by bringing up task manager and choosing processes and see what is using the CPU. Hope that helps a little. BB

I wouldn't be shocked if it did... just slap a hilarious story to it and you could make meeeeleeeeeiooons! Could call it a cousin of Wilson found washed up on the beach? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> and definetly lost some weight compared to cousin wilson......shrunk to a pingpongbally

NOTICE....War of the Worlds is a very VERY good movie to go see on the big screen. DEFINETLY NOT for young kids......this movie will TERRIFY THEM. may even terrify some adults....I saw 4 teenage girls leave and 1 woman and husband soon after (they all were disturbed by the movie) Brightblade cannot believe it was not a R rating.....this was MUCH MUCH more disturbing than most R graphic violent movies. I would say 17....maybe a 16 but still they will be shaken if they have any idea of what Spielberg is presenting and the horror that Orson Wells intended long ago. He will DEFINETLY return from the grave to view this and approve the rendition. I challenge anyone who sees it to NOT dreading various parts of the movie that become markers for things to come. (cant tell you what they are since it would skew your thoughts) The movie was brutal in its depiction of the attack and the effect on the populace. I left the theatre in a state of .........for me.....Oh crap...that was brutal and dark....I personally felt blank in some of the scenes of the carnage and all the effects Spielberg utilized. Brightblade said a dawn of the dead/land of the dead would have been like a barney goes to seseme street in comparison to this movie....very very dark.....stomach knotting tightening clenching UGH. Both a thumbs up from this duo......worth the ticket....dont buy food....you will not have a chance to reach for it OR even want to eat. I couldnt even drink my soda.......MAN I still .....cant tell ya......GO SEE IT!!! Enjoy I guess I should say in closing......but your night skyline will NEVER look the same over the horizon.
