Graphics / Give me more pageviews!

« on: December 17, 2008, 03:07:14 pm »

So, I was looking at my gallery stats on dA, and went 'whoa!' when I realized that one of my drawings have almost 700 views! Yeah. That's pretty amazing, for me. So.

Go forth, and make the number BIGGER!

General Discussion / Should I Let Joe Visit Me?

« on: August 29, 2008, 08:51:46 pm »

As a very small portion of you might know, the reason I've been so idle and non-existent on the forum lately is that I moved to Canada. Thunder Bay, Ontario, to be precise. I was alerted by Joe only moments ago that he may be passing through here over the next few days.

While I know the obvious answer to this, I thought I'd get everyone's opinion. You know. To make you guys feel special! Since you are... sorta.

EDIT (Joe) -
Moved to general since nobody reads my forum. Hai Kaleeko.

Gaming / Warhammer Online!

« on: August 29, 2008, 08:28:04 pm »

First Question: Is anyone from x86 planning on playing it?

I've been following the progress on the game for a while, and sadly never got into CB; however, with my pre-ordered copy I got into preview weekend, and it was an absolute blast. The PvP/RvR system was amazing, and while a LOT of the mechanics were the same as WoW, the added Public Quests were a  nice change from usual grinding, and the sheer amount of PvP quests made leveling through killing people a breeze.

I had to share one computer for the two days of playtime, but I ended up getting a Witch Elf, Black Orc, and Shaman all up to level 10, and my boyfriend got a Sorceress and a Magus to 10. There was an obvious problem with the Magus class, but the others we got to try were an absolute blast. I wasn't too pleased with the Witch Elf's main mechanic being almost exactly like the rogue mechanic from WoW, but there was enough differences that I didn't mind too much.

Once Open Beta hits I'm planning on jumping into a Disciple of Khaine to try that out a little, and probably a Chosen. I might even touch Order if I feel like it. Everything's so entertaining, and they offer you SO much to do right from level one, that it actually might be an ISSUE of time management. In WoW, you follow a set path, do this, this, than this, then this. WAR offers a lot more options... Which, in a way, might actually be a major flaw in some cases. But, it means I'll never be bored.

Oh, and the Tome of Knowledge is awesome too.

Anyone else got a taste of this awesomeness yet?
(I understand a lot of you probably won't try it, and probably will say it'll just crash and burn, but I actually think it's EXTREMELY promising. WoW will always be the top of the market as a PvE game... But WAR looks like it might just beat it in terms of PvP.)

Hooray for spam!

Gaming / Guild Wars?

« on: June 03, 2008, 02:13:35 pm »

I really tried to get back into WoW.. My characters are gathering dust, and my 70 mage just got into a decent raiding guild -- but... I just can't do it. I guess the redundancy is something I can't get over. Personally, I'm waiting for Warhammer to come out; I really don't see myself getting in-depth into any MMO's until it does.

BUT. To quell my boredom, I did pick up a copy of Guild Wars yesterday; I got my character to level 8, but now... I almost feel like I've hit a dead end of sorts. Is anyone out there still playing Guild Wars? (*cough Muffin*) I don't mind playing by myself, but it seems like some of the content you can't do solo...

For those of you who've played it, though, what're the pros/cons? And is there actually a decent amount of end-game content?

General Discussion / Canadian Alcohol...

« on: May 27, 2008, 07:55:28 pm »

As some of you may know, I've been super idle for a while because I've been getting ready to move to Canada -- I'm here now, obviously. This weekend, I made the unfortunate mistake of drinking WAY too much, and ended up having the worst hangover I hope I ever have.

Though, this didn't make a whole hell of a lot of sense to me, because I drank a lot less than I have back in the states, and back then I never even drank enough to have a headache in the morning.

So, that leads into my question: is it true that Canadian alcohol is more "potent" than American/there's a higher content in their drinks? I honestly can't remember the percentages from the US off the top of my head, so I'm not sure about the comparison.

I don't know if any of you have seen that yet, but.... Haha. I'd like to shoot a bb gun into that bitches eye.  She got what she deserved.

Well, I haven't actually posted anything in a while.. And the only thing to show for what I've been doing with my time not talking to you guys is my art... and my addiction to WoW.. so.. here's an attribute to both.



If you're bored and want to look at my other stuff, then: http://kaleeko.deviantart.com/

Also, note, another picture of me on the main page of my art site! Gasp!

Blizzard, WoW and Bots / Ding 70! .. Again!

« on: July 08, 2007, 05:00:48 am »

My horde mage, Duckee, just hit 70. I'm considering transferring her to a different server, as Detheroc isn't exactly my favorite server in the world.. We'll see.

Blizzard, WoW and Bots / I got bored yesterday...

« on: June 29, 2007, 04:31:16 am »

... so I finished off my Kurenai rep.



Also, my tier4 gloves. Just need my shoulders so I don't look so ridiculous...

I'd like to join! / Make me a member already.

« on: April 22, 2007, 11:38:54 pm »

After seeing that Ender was made a member, I was suddenly incredibly disgusted at myself for not having done this a long time ago...

So, finally, I've decided to put myself up on the butcher's block and ask to be a member. (I have Sidoh and Myndfyre's approval, for those that are curious.)

I'd like to be a member because, over the time I've been here, I've become friends with a lot of the members, and respect and am amused by many of you. It probably would help to mention that:

7:58:55 PM mutsumibear: I post more often on there than most of the members.
7:59:02 PM newby1337: Yeah! And you're cooler than most members.

Oh, and, you need a girl. Really bad.

So yeah, just make me a member.. as in, right now. I love you all, and I know, somewhere deep inside your hearts, you love me too. ...

Blizzard, WoW and Bots / Ding 60, Again! .... Again!

« on: April 03, 2007, 05:27:34 am »

Okay, this will hopefully be the last time I say this. My troll mage, Duckee, just hit 60. Every pat her on the head, and don't pet the raptor.

General Discussion / The Wierdest Thing You Will Ever Hear Me Ask

« on: March 13, 2007, 01:42:04 am »

I say weird because, simply, I am usually not the type to ask for relationship advice, especially from a group of nerds such as yourself. (That's a compliment.)

If you didn't know, my boyfriend and I broke up about two weeks ago. It was a rather peaceful breakup, except for the fact that it was completely out of the blue, and unprovoked. While I was prepared to spend the rest of my life with David -- and was under the complete speculation that he felt the same way -- he apparently changed his mind and suddenly fell out of love with me. For no reason. He just *stopped*.

There are some things I understand about guys.. This isn't one of them. How does someone, one week, leave messages on your phone saying "I don't have words to describe how much I love you" and "you and I are made for each other" and "I never want to be with anyone else, or see you with anyone else", and then, almost exactly a week later, feel the exact opposite?

Seriously, you think girls are fucked up? That's just... Fucked up.

Blizzard, WoW and Bots / Cold Turkey.

« on: February 24, 2007, 12:32:18 am »

So, I quit WoW, with two days notice to myself. I think I'm in shock right now, because I'm not feeling the cravings yet. I think I'll give it a few days.

I ran outta moneys... At least, I have to decide between a gamecard and a stargate jacket. And for some reason, the latter is looking a lot more alluring.. Or maybe I'm lying to myself to help calm myself from the sudden withdrawl of WoW... I even wore my "For the Horde" shirt today in lament of how I no longer am owned by the Blizz-Gods...

... Help me. -_-

Blizzard, WoW and Bots / Help. :(

« on: February 10, 2007, 04:42:15 pm »

So, I hit 64 about a week ago, hit 65 about two days ago, and then just stopped playing altogether. For the past few weeks or so I can't seem to actually focus on leveling. And, getting online makes me even more pissed off, because my entire guild is 69 or 70 and I'm the only one lagging behind.

So.. Do I stop playing WoW altogether, bite the bullet and ignore and/or leave my guild of annoying pushy people, or start a new char? I've been tempted to start a draenei or bloodelf, but I really hate playing the beginning levels alone just because they're so goddamn boring.
