This morning we have a Winter Weather Advisory. NOA calls for 2 feet of snow in our Cascade Moutain Range over the next 48 hours. Adding to the already 100 + inch base at Mt. Hood. That is A LOT of snow folks. For the love of the Gods, 100+ inches, just stop already. Two weeks ago here in Central Oregon we had a BRUTAL bout with freezing rain. Talk about a mass collision of elements vs. humankind. What a nightmare. Once people wrecked, if they could move, promply left their vehicles only to fall and become injured further from the subsequent fall post vehicle accident. Talk about adding insult to injury! Stay safe out there community. I remain,

Old dusty Uni. cap is once again on...16 years after the fact. Keep em' comin' wolfie. I remain,

Hello Thorin. Can't add much to what other members here have posted thusfar. Save this...I will admit, from time to time I lurk over on the SIF, but have never become a member. Never want to either. The tone is much different in that Realm. For fellowship & Gaming, you have finally found the right breed of people. The members here are the real deal so to speak. Now from time to time we stray away. On the forums and gaming. But eventually it seems we all grasp a new adventure together and come back online. Personally I hope that next adventure is "Grim Dawn". Time will tell if my wish bears fruit. Enough rambling! I remain, Etherian

Two Cents. Long overdue! A player could make an easy case for the Divine Devotion Skill. We are always debating proper balancing in many disussions pertaining to the implementation of new content within the CM patch. Never have I seen the topic even mentioned once in the many different CM threads. Honestly, no love given to Divine Devotion. A skill that could be very powerful and used often. Perhaps entire builds could be built around a given Deity. Personally, I believe the skill is often overlooked and not even considered. Perhaps because of the extreme cooldown. Perhaps because the actual Deity gift is and always has been subpar, almost to the point of being permanently nerfed. With further thought and evaluation. The Deity chosen & skill taken to mastery, could potentially be devastating or life saving. Depending on the application. I have always felt the "G" button was a last ditch effort to survive when all else failed. But, what if a character could actually incorporate the idea around a build? Imagine the possibilites. What if the skill became one of the elite. A must have skill choice found in almost every build. Like Armor Lore for defense & cooldown, or picking a class lore for damage & execution. The different applications could be almost to the point endless. With so much depth into character creation. An actual working Divine Devotion with a chosen deity skill, not nerfed, would only add to this depth. In tweaking the skill & deity gift, we could begin opening pandoras box. A whole new breed of character builds could be born! Perhaps even taking the application further. The CA's can be modded for different effects. What if the skill also functioned like a focus skill. Adding mod points for the Deity Skill. Fully modded and functional. Gods are supposed to be very powerful and to the extreme. Therefore the options should also be extreme. To the offensive or defensive capabilities. I remain,

Keep the short stories coming wolfie. You have my mind engaged & wanting more of the same. I remain, p.s.~ keep this up. You will force me to dawn my dusty old uni cap once again.

According to some "so called experts" in marine biology. Thousands of years for a very large, vibrant reef to fully develop. Very Sad! I remain,

$10 dollars? *falls out of chair* You stole it fair and square. Your gain, their loss. What an awesome game at a rock bottom basement price! I remain, jealous

To be 18 again... Happy Birthday!

Cursed Forest chain quest runs always seemed to yield decent drops. Over the course of the entire chain, the possibilites are endless really. The constructs only drop ammies & rings, an added bonus. Enjoy! Obviously, be mindful of the many dangers in the area. Some would make the debate, the area is the hardest to grind in Ancaria. I remain, Etherian

Dang...how did I miss the welcome back party. I even took the time to actually look for one as well...so not to create a double topic post. Better late then never I suppose. Finally found the WB location. Thank you for all your hard work gentlemen. The hackers may beat us down, but like a Phoenix, we will arise again from the ashes! I remain,

What a fantastic read. I had no idea you where such a affluent writer wolfie. Certainly a way with words. Like Omnicide said earlier. We are ready for the next installment. I remain,

Welcome. Nice to see some lurkers coming into the fold, still. Have a great time here. I remain, Etherian

Two thoughts here. Free coffee to co-workers is a great PR tactic, which could come back with greater rewards. Secondly, I am beginning to think gogo is a paid employee of "the golden arches". As much as MCD's is mentioned here on the forum. Point in fact, what a great way to funnel profits via a forum which reaches potentially thousands of people on a regular basis. Dang, gogo, you have an empire here. Well, the secret is out now. Might as well confess... I remain,

This is a great feature. Very hard to keep tabs on all birthdays. Just over 23K members. Whoa! Just to have a quick tooltip is very useful and warranted. Hmmm...now I cannot hide in the shadows any longer. I remain, *continues to hide in the shadows*

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=rPJaJ5ys_G0 Feel free to comment. I remain,

Well this has answered all of my questions. Seems a pure mentalist build is indeed very viable. Awesome! I remain,

Sorry to read this Chameleon. Perhaps you can find your retro's via a different supplier? Keep looking, do not give up, fight the fight. I remain,

Awesome find wolfie. Now only if the TG had a custom tailored black suit. I remain, *mod team begins creation* cough!

Forge ahead ye' fearless leader. We are all still here, regardless. I remain,

I hope Schot is back from vacation to see this whole thing transpire! 108,153 is a whopping number. GZ! gentlemen. I remain,

Happy Birthday Mate! Cheers... I remain,

Awesome. Can...not...wait! I remain, :~)

I could make a comment here & a viable argument. However, on the flipside it would be viewed as racist. I remain,

Looks like a very solid build chattius. I always wanted to make a pure mentalist build, but could never make any work. Tried 3 different variations. All failed once they got into platinum. All 3 variations lacked the power to aquire fast kill speeds. Although I never tried % life leech. Also as pure caster I never engaged in close combat with left mouse clicks. Please follow up on your progress. Seems like you may be onto something. I know I tried and FAILED! I remain,
