  1. What's the average word count for short story submissions?

    I'll just get as close to 2500 as possible. I've 1800 words already, but I have to detail a whole fight scene. T.T

    Don't sweat the word count. Just write what you need to write. If you go over, you can go back and trim back some of the least important details without compromising the story as a whole. If you try to write something such as an important fight with a limit in mind, you're really only stifling the creative process.

    Just let 'er rip and go from there.

  2. Yeah, ret pallys are pretty much useless in a lot of situations as no one really likes DPS without CC.

    Finally got the Champion of the Naaru title for my rogue. Started farming Kara and got bored with it. Ghostlands isn't really a great server to be on unless you were geared then transferred. So I rerolled a draenei hunter out of boredom.

  3. It's no mod, I built the interface myself. I never liked all those pre-made GUIs, they always clutter the screen with tons of shit. Then again, I don't raid.

    Fantastic. Did you use the UI tool from the WoW site? I hate the standard interface as well.

  4. I've never even made it INTO Darnassus before. Heck I never even got off the dock without dying too much. I've solo'd Velen a few times, though. He's easy to get to.

    I was 61 at the time of those pics. Vanishing while you're already in stealth is the best way to sneak past higher level guards without alerting anyone else around you that there is an intruder. I respecced subtlety since I began to enjoy the sneaky stuff better than the combat dps. Plus, there only 9.234234 x 10^3 combat mace rogues out there.

  5. So i got bored and decided to be a retard and go after Tyrande Whisperwind alone. I have never laughed so hard because of a game ever.

    Got the ambush of without being detected, but...

    Tyrande's guards decided to cluster-fuck me for some reason.

    EDIT: Resized. Ouch were those big.

  6. So do any of you Horde players have the pleasure of seeing "The Crossroads is under attack!" spamming your world defense channel as much as we do here on Ghostlands? Seems like it's nonstop.

    Also I received my biggest honor last night. I was whispered and told that I was on a Kill-on-Sight list. Yay for me! Probably from sneaking into Darnassus and killing their tree-people on a daily basis...

    :lol: great now my computer is going to smell like Dr. Pepper.

    Seriously though, not making a big deal about anything, it's just I lurked for the better part of 2005-2007 and saw what UnMod had become. It wasn't really all that worth getting upset over.

    *sigh* I just miss RuneLancer and Spram.

  8. THE INTERNET IS SERIOUS BUSINESS.

    Surprised no one else said it.

    Seriously though, as a former UnModder myself, it was a necessary step forward. UnMod was trash. It took the shine off the rest of the site. Props to djp for taking the backlash as well as he did. Props to Coop for being so eloquent in his documenting.

  9. I'd have to agreed with Valkyrie Profile and Vagrant Story, as well as Shadow Hearts: Covenant. Threads of Fate was good, and even though the actual game was pretty crappy, Legend of Mana was a pretty decent soundtrack. I also think that Grandia 2 was incredible, and I am of the opinion that Final Fantasy Mystic Quest has one of the catchiest RPG soundtracks ever. Need to mention Legend of Dragoon too, I guess.

    The Xenosaga series is by no means underrated musically, but there aren't enough remixes. The first episode's battle theme is my favorite of all time.

  10. Now, see, if you had an meet-up in, say, North Carolina, I'd totally be there. But since pretty much all the NC people have already been banned or no longer frequent OCR, I guess I'm screwed. I'd go to Toronto if I had a lot more notice, like if it were in June or July. And I think my passport is expired or something.

  11. There isn't any chance of lawsuit for a few reasons. The site runs off of donations, not paying customers. Notice the site is ".org" and not ".com?" The site claims to be "unofficial" and unaffiliated with any of the actually games or companies. All original composers are given credit, and none of the remixes are copyrighted. I'm pretty sure if there was any illegal activity, namely copyright infringment, going on, OCR would've already been made aware.
