ZOMG! <3 Stang!

zomg WB! the scourge invasion is either about to end or has already ended on skullcrusher... the invasion has already ended on other servers so uhm... you just missed out man. basically, there were invasion hotspots throughout azeroth where there were non stop spawns of UD mobs around a rune. you could farm these guys for rep, necrotic runes (quest item to get rewards; repeatable) and cash. killing these guys would dmg a rune and when its been damaged enough, technicians would spawn to repair it and if you talk to them with 8 necrotic runes on you, they'd turn into shades which are elites that are easily 3-5 mannable. These mobs would drop 30 necrotic runes each and hv chances to drop a BoP undead +atk power chest piece. Basically, the invasion as well as a bunch of new quests at LHC are a huge incentive to boost your AD rep.

OMG! Awesome stuff...

This topic is such a gray issue. To be honest, i see both sides... and i dont mind either one. Just being brief. First off, man has tried to be God since the dawn of existence so that argument is pretty much irrelevant. Our attempts to explain things we didnt understand lead to faith and religion to ease the tensions and keep the peace but at the same time caused more problems. At some point in our history, Science came about and has vaslty overtaken religion in a sense of explaining things but not necessarily in terms of faith. Science is a tool... its people who're using it who screw things up in our world. On a side note, anyone who has done some Physics should hv at least heard about the chaos theory... and just like some theories in economics, it also applies to human nature. Interesting stuff. Civilisation has reached a stage where our control of creation is reaching a level that the average person doesnt understand - i dont understand most of this GM stuff but i'm not that worked up about it... to each his/her own. I hv no clue as to how a nuclear power plant is run but its technology has both solved and raised new problems, yet the majority of people tolerate it... there were no major issues when this technology came about because we didnt hv much moral or ethical sense to move upon. However, the minute Science shows signs of tampering with things we consider 'holy' such as tampering with human beings and the food we eat where our moral and ethical beliefs generally revolve around natural birth, staying naturally fit and eating fresh food... immediate protest arises because we hv established some ethics and morals about this issue. If we created an extreme scenario where GM food would literally save the human race... what would you say about that? If it was certain that we stayed organic or our current course of action would lead to destruction and GM food and other related stuff would save us... would you still reject it? Obviously, in this scenario... GM food didnt hv side effects and it has improved the standard of living worldwide on a grand scale. Now, the opposite... it has become apparent that GM food as well as playing God down to a molecular level is leading us to destruction. Returning back to nature and living clean and organic is to become our salvation... would you disregard it? The scenarios are unlikely but depending on the information at your disposal... your opinions on issues such as this can vastly change. Looking at an ethical point of view... GM technology is a double-edged sword. Let's create another extreme scenario... lets say your against GM... but you're going to become a mother/father/brother/sister however, your child/sibling has been identified with some kind of defect during an early stage of pregnancy and the chances are high, he or she'll will be retarded at birth however, we hv the technology to prevent this - what would you do? What is ethically and morally right? You cant really say for sure simply because we hvnt had many of these scenarios happen - moral and ethical understanding basically establishes from things that happen around you - more than likely you'll be a hypocrite and choose to save your child/sibling, but what if you had read about this in an article and it asked for your opinion... would your opinion differ? Your opinions on issues change drastically when it shifts from objective to subjective... saving a child from being retarded is in the same catogary as genetically-enhancing your child... both aim to give your child a better chance at life from an objective point of view. Subjectively however, opinions, again, vary drastically. The human mind is a very powerful tool but also easily manipulated... just look at propoganda theories... it happens everyday (TV anyone?). Yes, there are black and white scenarios where there's a clear right and wrong but those topics arent discussed 'cos its obvious to the majority of poeple. The controversial topics are gray and there's no right or wrong... if there was a clear winner, why would it be considered controversial in the first place? Technology isnt bad... GM has huge potential to do good things... just like most of the technologies in our lives today... its the people that abuse it. Who's the bad guy? The scientist pushing the boundaries of understanding or the business man exploiting a potential moneymaker? It depends. So many angles and so many arguments... reaching a conclusion that everyone will agree with is unlikely. At the end of the day... we can say what we want, but money runs the world. Its a fact that GM foods reduce costs and hv a huge potential to do good. 10 years down the line they might even save us but simply because some entreprenuer saw a profit in it... the technology got jumped way too early and now we're suffering somewhat. What if we all stopped eating GM food and therefore stopped all the demand so it'll stop? Good question... but if you think this is a valid question whereas my scenarios above are extreme... uhmm... i wish i was optimistic as you. It'll never happen... and even if it did... it would be temporary. There's too much money involved and unfortunately there's no such thing as an uncorrupt society/government/body. Hving said all of that... i choose fresh and organic over GM and processed food when i can but i wouldnt go out of my way to stay purely to one or the other. At the end of the day, with what information you hv at your disposal... make your choice. Dont be surprised if it changes now and then, you're not alone... people change their minds all the time. Always keep an open mind... it makes things easier.

So yea... i'm sure a few people hv heard it already but i was just browsing some guild sites... and found this: http://www.impervious-guild.com/ - awesome site design... but listen to the song!!! I know we had a thread on loituma's levi's polka song... but i couldnt find it to post this... so here's a new post! Needless to say... i'm hooked again... /sigh

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=64...2845372&q=AQ+40 Finally found a good video on sartura from a tank's perspective. Granted its horde but they hv cool strat. During the adds... they do something similiar to the strat above and in stage 2 against huhuran... instead of all tanks on her... there're 1-2 of them (the guy who's takin the video is on of those 1-2) that stand inbetween her and casters and taunts off and brings her back to the MTs.

LOL. Nice!

rofl... ah... good times.

ZOMG really? Were those mounts all black or were they different colours? If they were all black or at least the same colour.. then its probably the legendary AQ mount.

Yea... the group is called loituma and the song is called leva's polka. Its finnish. And... i've spent countless hours doing homework and projects while listening to that song for a long time lol... i've finally managed to break free!

Your best and only bet would be to PM Sileed on our forums. He's been modifying wowroster a lot to integrate it with our forums and is almost done and has a lot of knowledge as well as sources concerning the wowroster mod.
