My Life in Two Pages

Posted 10/30/09 at 12:24 AM by DeeNogger
On September 10th I turned 24 years of age. Twenty-four years and nine months before that, my parents had sex and I was conceived. I spent the first part of my life adjusting to the world around me and biting my older brother. I evolved, with time, to learn how to crawl, walk, talk, make doody in the toilet, and cope with my emotions. I learned that crying when I dont get what I want is an inappropriate response. I learned that some things in life will always be closed to me and some things in life...

I recently learned a bit more about the animation system from Blizzard that is imo way to underused by most addon authors.

Maybe it's just because the have no clue that it exists or maybe they are not capable of doing (which I doubt). I think its laziness. In my opinion the reward of getting into it will be worth it.

Overall the author is concerned that Battle.net integration is essentially foisting features that are unwanted and will impair or otherwise diminish their gaming experience. Personally, I am a fan of Battle.net integration for no other reason than the fact that when I was setting up my account I was...

Short Sweet Rant #5

Posted 10/09/09 at 12:51 PM by VerziehenOne
Just Try It is NOT at Strategy!

First off, apologies for posting so quickly after my last one .. this is simply a very current issue that has been in my guild, and ranting is something I like to do.
