Re: AO Forum Breach - Security issue - change your password

I may be hosed on my old forums account. It was set up LONG before they attached them to accounts. None of the emails I have, not even the one I had back when the forum came out, worked for a password reset. I'll buzz them but ... meh.

Re: AO 15th Anniversary announcement - Frozen accounts can play

Thanks Chris :) I'll be hopping on to say hello and play some. I probably won't be playing as much as I expected during this period ... we just put in a bid on a house in Seattle and are in process of winding down my wife's business in Oregon in prep for the move. But ... at least I'll get my names ...

Re: FC Announcement: Genele and Macrosun leaving AO

The problem with adding new content is that it usually is about making the previous end game not end game anymore. For example 200 goes to 220, then 220 goes to 220/30 then 220/30 goes to 220/30/70. Then AI comes in, then Alphas, then upgraded beast etc. That's actually the point. Subscribers play ...

Also ... they will on rare occasions give your name away after years away, but almost never if it is 200+.

when do you press q?
Ok, Noobas, I'll give you this one. Without this headache that would have gotten a true LOL.

hint: just tab around and press Q after each tab. It will eventually work out. This also works on raids like Pande.

Re: Some (annoying) things to know about servers merge !

This has happened in the past, usually not on purpose, but often taking weeks or months to get around to being fixed.

Re: Some (annoying) things to know about servers merge !

Thank Noob. I read it ... unfortunately no way for me to know if the user "Doctorhyde" on RK1 was an active account after mine went inactive. Doubtful, but no way to know without coughing up the cash or crossing my fingers until the next free month activation is spammed out. For now I'm no...

Re: Some (annoying) things to know about servers merge !

I had Hydefu on both RK1 and RK2 ... and one of them is deactivated but with a random name, the other has the name reserved. So they definitely did do something to reserve names. I guess I'll have to pay a month to find out if I lost my name.

Hrm. I rolled a fr00b account and ... Doctorhyde, Hyde (which I didn't own, though I think someone snagged it for me ... maybe Mud) and Jexyll were all taken. Hyde, I could see easily, as I never owned it. Doctorhyde, wait a minute, someone has to be messing with me personally ... But Jexyll? I thin...

Hugs back at ya Chris. I'm barely even able to WoW right now. Sitting at my desk is pretty much unbearable for more than 30 minutes at a time. Going in for 2nd surgery on the 8th and hopefully I'm "back" to normal again.
