I can say that I've known some people who have learned new information from a stress test though.
What are you talking about July 10th, I'm sitting at your kitchen table in Ardesia City now waiting for a coffee. I'm so vibed up I'll have to drink it through a straw, I don't dare pickup the cup. On second though just bring the pot over...
You really should get the lock changed, and a better quality too.

Wife says it has to be an error and is going to phone them tomorrow and give the a proper what for!
Should be good ... for a chuckle.

Usually living so close to GOLGREN scares most people off I hadn't given much thought to proper locks. The Steinheim visitor's center said it was a popular model when I passed through there, but now I think I realize why...

The package on the coffee said it was "GOLGREN strength," so double it up and you should be good. ;)

Yea, GOLGREN has that affect doesn't he. Great neighbour, great friend ... but if he's your enemy, different story. Just keep a supply of Zander fish around and toss one his way every now and then and never ever cross him and you'll be good.

... m a y b e !

Mmmmmmm good coffee. Thank you, of course your welcome at Rockheim North or South anytime, pot's always on.

WOW! Weekend gone already? Where time flies when having fun.

Took a few alts out to play, had a riot. But, man oh man it sure is hard to get to level 100.

And the HGM miner LostKnight, true to that part of his life spent the weekend back and forth from Rockheim North to the Carbon mine, making ingots. Strange thing is those ingots are heavy, so I use the Double D's, Darby and Duncan to carry them.

Yesterday some Ogre(34) green texted me "Oii" on Map 0.0. Knowing who his main is and not a friend at all, I ignored him. He followed me to Map 0.1 and pulled what he though was a "How to win Friends and Influence Enemies" move, he tossed a fish at me and then asked: Where did you buy pets!. A few seconds later when the 'stun' wore off I started walking again, he pulled the same stunt.

Does this {cough cough} REALLY think I was about to answer him? Also, I know he is part of an army of alts that go around killing people. He thinks he is "a Special Player!" (his words) sigh

So today I will probably get another couple of levels and then right back to mining.

I do find it rather interesting that walking around with any pet other than dogs and low level shop pets is such a magnet for those questions. Even shop dragons (mine are named Mint & Crystal, courtesy of my official namer) get that question when you have them in pairs.

And walking around with purchased pets means you get asked a few times if you sell pets. Yes, because I walk around with multiple spares at all times should a replacement be needed?

I don't PvP - I log! It's that simple.

HATE violence, I was the little skinny kid that got beat up in the school yard. Took me two and a half years to gain 25 pounds so I could join the military when I was young. My step-father, a 6' 1" school yard bully "adult", use to beat me black and blue with a thick leather belt. Had to sleep on my stomach many a night because of the welts on my back.

I will NOT bring that type of violence into my pixel world. A long time ago there was one gamer that was attacking me, no stun, just attacking, I moved away, he came close and continued 3 or 4 times, so with one hit I killed him. I am NOT pleased about it.

And there are many who agree with you. Perhaps different reasons why or why not, but the same end stance.

Yes, and I know quite a few. I still believe this game could "thrive" with a "PvP or No PvP" option on creating a new character.

Both groups would buy houses, levels, pets, and all the other goodies on the "Buy Extra Stuff".

HOWEVER: Please let's NOT follow that line of thought here. It has been discussed in various other threads and I dropped out of it when some "in favour of PvP" people started with name calling. OK they can do PvP in the forums so they degrade to name calling. How brave of them.

Corporal Desmond Doss <<-- google him!

But please note, I did carry a gun and did use it! Nuff said!

Violence is violence. Self defence has another meaning.
Fight is not for violence, is to preserve what is important.
