The Daily Grind: Would you like appropriate movie tie-in content in your MMOs?
Posted on May 23rd 2013 8:00AM



Tell us your most epic MMO stunt and win a copy of the Guinness World Records 2012 Gamer's Edition!
Jan 20th 2012 11:42AM (Massively)The night before Tuesday (raids unlock) I posted a thread on the Realm forums that tomorrow night they wouldn't be raiding Sunwell (this was during TBC when the cream-of-the-crop raiding guilds were running it). Elitism was at an all-time high on my server, and since it was a PVP server and we were a PVP guild, I organized an event where we would get as many guildies online as possible and camp the entrence to Sunwell. Any Horde raider (they were the only faction progressed this far) who got close was getting burst down.
Their high-tier gear wasn't much match for our focus fire. Much drama ensued and although it's not as much of a stunt, everyone remembered it and our guild for halting progression for that week.

Dec 14th 2011 6:54AM (Massively)[Updated] Celebrate the launch of Veil of Alaris by winning a signed copy of the EverQuest art book
Nov 18th 2011 6:49PM (Massively)We talked in game and eventually started using voice chat services on Yahoo and such to communicate. I didn't talk much because they were much older, but they were really funny guys and gals who were alittle nerdy but always cracked me up.
I had NO idea that these random people I met in game would become some of my best friends both online and irl, and that even after we quit Everquest that we'd continue to try out other games and still talk. We went through our WoW phase and now, sadly, this group is sort of split up, but I keep in touch with some of them and seriously I'd LOVE to meet again with the others who seem to have just faded away. (So if you remember playing in a guild called "Miscellaneous Discussion" please say somethin)
I guess I'm saying that at a time when I didn't have any social role models as a teen, Everquest introduced me to some very friendly people who really shaped who I am today. I'm not sure that MMOs today can really do that anymore.
Hands-on with Blizzard DOTA: Tweaking the genre it created
Oct 21st 2011 7:36PM (Massively)And as far as I know Blizzard hasn't been too kind to those guys considering Diablo 3 and the like.

May 1st 2011 2:29PM (Big Download)I wish Callaham and the others the best. I loved this site and the attention it gave to often overlooked PC gaming news.
Please take care guys!

Star Ruler to be pulled from Impulse because of GameStop sale
Apr 7th 2011 8:59AM (Big Download)Be a part of Black Prophecy's closed beta test with our key giveaway!
Mar 25th 2011 4:33PM (Massively)Going to AccountSystems at the top. Logging in with your Gamigo account at top right. Click "My Profile" and I notice there is a seperate "change" button beside info about Black Prophecy. Clicking it will give you a change password field. Change it and then the Pilot Licensing Terminal should work.
Um, hope that info helps someone out there.
