    Hmm, is it me or is WoW being laggy even though I have decent latency. 70-150ms. Lots of people i've seen are pretty skippy on my screen.

    Sounds more like a hardware problem. You'll usually get some lag if you have any less than 1GB of RAM.

    Well, I have 1gig of ram now and my video card is the X800XL. I run 1680x1050 with pretty much maxed out settings.

    Maybe the new weather effects are the culprit? :P

    Just got into the game again because I actually have people to play with now.

    I started a Gnome Mage on Burning Blade because that's where my friends are. If anyone else is on that server let me know.

    I also have a few Horde characters on Arthas. Highest is 47 Undead Rogue.

    What tradeskills should a Mage get anyhow?

    Alchemy, Tailoring, and Enchanting are all good caster skills. Alchemy for filling in buff holes. Tailoring for armor to wear/sell. Enchanting is great at higher levels but its such a money sink until ya get the good enchants. Then it rocks with the self-enchanting and charging people for enchants.

    Also, in case some people didn't know having two gathering skills first makes big coinage so you don't have to worry about saving up for that mount.

    Thanks for the suggestions. You can only have 2 right? I might just go with Alchemy and Enchanting.

    Sorry to hop on this thread without reading any of the previous comments...and this has probably been answered, but..

    What's the reason behind the mother being the main character and not the father being the person who's looking for his daughter? At first I thought the movie was maybe leading into the first Silent Hill game, cause he was told by his wife to meet him at their spot. But then I remember the part where they wreck in the jeep. In the game it was the guy driving(can't even think of his name off the top of my head :P ) and not the woman.

    Well, first off, you've got the plot of silent Hill 2 confused with the plot of the first game. Harry's wife sends him no letters.

    Also, according to Chris Gans:

    "I think when Roger Avary and Nickolas Boukhrief and I started to work on the project we assumed, because we are all fans of the game, that we would start writing with Harry Mason as our lead.

    It quickly became clear however Harry never acted like a masculine character. He was constantly dizzy, fainting, talking to himself, screaming and in fact was very vulnerable. We didn't want to betray the nature of the game by changing the character's feelings and motivations, so we felt it was better to change to a female protagonist and retain all those important qualities. I don't want people to think that I have been "politically correct" because we changed Harry into Rose. There is no political correctness in Silent Hill.

    It's important to mention that we were conscious that allowing the Gamers to have to face a new character would help in the transition from Silent Hill the Game to Silent Hill the Movie."

    You can read info like this on Gans' Blog.

    Ah ok, cool. Thanks for clearing that up.

    And yeah haha, I didn't get the two mixed up, oops. It's been forever since I've played Silent Hill titles.

    Hello, I'm Lobo2me and I'm a remixoholic.

    Last night I found this site and I now have 110 MB of remixes, all downloaded with a 56K modem :D

    My favourite song is still Sonic 3 - Her Azure Eyes by DarkeSword, with Chrono Trigger - Calamitous Judgement in second place.

    Are there more mixes here that are similar to Her Azure Eyes? I prefer the techno sound with a nice melody that I can whistle to :)

    You must have gotten an error message when posting, which i'm guessing is the result of your triple post.

    Check this out if that's what has happened.

    Otherwise, welcome to the boards :) and upgrade to cable connection! :P
