Blade and Soul feels fun. Giving Skyforge a look too, and then there's Tera.

I checked out Drakensang, but the community seems to be too low :\

Lots of people in Tera, but I got bored with it fast.

Good morning, si...erm...Bekki.

What? It's good for the finish.

Morning.

Figures, I don't check in for a day or two and suddenly y'all post.

Haven't done too much lotro in the last week. Been needing a break of helping out every single settlement in East Rohan. Yeesh...talk about weak warriors when they are too afraid to assault the orc camps and yet they send me in alone. I'm a hobbit! Ok, a hobbit you don't want to mess with but still...

Made a thief near the end of last week in GW2 and got daredevil unlocked. I wasn't sure I'd like the class but I'm actually having some fun with it. I am so done making characters now. Seven is almost too many but then I have some that I won't or don't play much so I guess it will eventually even out.

Been there, saw that, admired the physics, moved on.

ROFL! I'd thought the same thing, tho maybe being a Dorf makes my char look a wee bit sturdier. (Or maybe just more expendable? )

It's when they start sending us running around town like an errand boy that gets my goat - but as long as they're paying up the XPs...

Glad to know I'm not alone in my thinking.

I agree...I grumble at them about getting off their own lazy butts and do the errand themselves. The xp is a bonus for being downgraded to an errand boy/girl. Although, if I'm such a great hero in the land...isn't that being utterly disrespectful even in a time of war?

By the time Frodo finally tosses the ring into Mount Doom, I have a feeling my hobbit's reputation will be greater than his...

I've been told there is a chinese curse that translates to "May you live in interesting times". I'm not sure the last two months have been a curse, but I have been having a life. Looking for a new job after the contracts dried up, had a friend visit from england, got a nasty-gram from the government in regards to taxes, got a new job, the guy that I was hired to help quit, leaving me both new and overworked.

The tax thing is still all messed up. Apparently the tax department isn't allowed to talk to any of the other departments, even to confirm the legitimacy of deductions so now I need to get some sort of records out of one department to give to another.

Settling into the job. The guy who quit hasn't actually left yet, he goes at the end of the month, so at least I've got a few weeks of learning the basics.

I'm starting to miss the days when I didn't have a life and I could play DDO all day.


On the plus side, first pay check, new cloths, and new computer.

That's the spirit!


Good luck with that tax junk.

Why thank you, kind sir.

As easy as 1, 2, 3... or rather a 2 and 3 1's.

Hiya, Hazel. Good luck in the new job. Don't worry about the tax trolls, much. I hear a certain future president is going to fire some of them in January. XD

Can anyone get fired in Canada??

Congrats on the job. Sorry to hear you'll end up with a huge pile in the lap soon. Hopefully you'll learn plenty in the time before the other person leaves.

Well tell them you're going to have to charge them for your time as they are unable to do their job.

Hi all, hope everyone is well. We're good, except all of us being sick this weekend as the preschooler brought home a bug.

Tscheuss! I decided to give Laurelin a look. I looked up the RP forums for both Landroval (which I'm on) and Laurelin... and well, Laurelin's site rocks while Landy's is pretty darn underwhelming. I had thought to just transfer my whole account over to Laurelin cause I have more than enough points, but it won't let me - I suppose due to the region differences. Ouch, there goes my access to crafters and stuff.

But anyways, I'm going to pop on and make a new toon there and check it out. My concern is that as a GMT-5er I'll miss most of the fun stuff. But hopefully it'll play kind to my uber tourist casual playstyle these days. Let me know if there's any special things I should know, please.

No transfer between regions is the big downside... maybe the only downside if you like the RP style. Laurelin has varied degrees of RP, and it has the kinships to reflect them. It also has a lot of non-RP kins and players due to the world consolidation.

We just had the Harnkegger Games. Most events are listed on laurelinarchives.org. A regular event for Hobbits is Green Dragon Friday (GDF) at 3 pm /servertime every Friday. I am not sure how long it lasts, though. I always forget to look at a clock. XD

Most kinships are very helpful to kinnies and strangers alike. Many have high crafters that will make things for free, for materials, or for a fee (usually free for non-LI stuffs). Which kin you join will depend on your play and RP style. A nice middle ground kin is TheBrightMelody (xfer from Withy, iirc). They have RP members, but do not require RP.

That about all I can fit in, right now. I am playing more on DDO, atm.

Laurelin has stricter enforcement of the rules. ^^

Thanks! I decided to roll a burglar because I'd always liked the class but never capped one before - and you know, Middle Earth ninja.

Bestill my heart, the Man starting zone has multiple instances.

What happened to MyLotro?

I suspect that MyLotro went the way of MyDDO. I still miss the old forum.
