I got Androth up to 41st level last night by starting the Scarlet Crusade series of quests and finishing up a couple other quests. My main immediate goal is to obtain better weapons and arm r for Androth as I progress… the reward for the Scarlet Crusade series of quests (which ends up running the [...]

So I finaly got online to play a bit again on Sunday evening. I played with one of my sons my newest toon, a Draenei female Paladin named Likimeya. I leveled her three times (we started them out at 9th when we got started), so that was kinda cool. Ironically, despite playing two Paladins now, [...]

Last night I went through my Event Logs on my system and found that I’ve been having a slew of atimag errors about my monitor “not being the correct type” for my ATI card. After some rather heavy research I found that this is a problem that’s relatively common for people with the 7.8 and [...]

It all boils down to what I originally assumed to be the case… at least my motherboard is damaged… and possibly my processor [...]

Sometimes flight simulation can be a royal pain in the ass. Take last weekend for example. I wanted to get started with the VATSIM Los Angeles ARTCC’s Pilot Certification program. However, being the perfectionist I am, I didn’t want to fly the 182Q I typically fly up in the Seattle area, a red, white, and [...]
