For once a thread that I totally agree with......

I am really missing our trials nights, they were such good fun but who the hell wants VR14 or even VR13 gear!?!

Look! I found a happy thread!

Thanks for pointing out that thread @Xendyn - from the title I feared it was another rage one, when in fact it gave me the warm fuzzies.

Now... let me go back to lurking

UrQuan

So I hit a milestone of sorts the other night. All of the 8 characters on my main account are now vet rank! Yay! Now no matter which one I play I'm earning champion points!

Now, do I work on getting the characters on my second account to vet rank (they range from level 16 to level 30 right now), or do I work on completing Coldharbour (and the main quest) on the 4 characters on my main account who are only partway through it? Hmm, decisions...

Also, I led a group of guildies through part of Imperial City the other night, and we went and did the Arena district quest for them (I had already done it). As I consider that the hardest of the IC PVE quests to do solo, I was quite pleased that we were able to get it done for 5 or 6 folks who hadn't yet done it. We even took pity on a lone enemy player who was clearly just trying to get to the district's trophy vault, and didn't gang up on him and slaughter him. Good times.

I keep seeing this comment in your posts.

Have to ask: Have you seen 'Losers' the movie?

Hmm, yes, but it was a while ago... I don't remember, did they say that in the movie? To be honest, it's something I've been saying for probably over 20 years - depending on the context sometimes I mean it sarcastically and sometimes very genuinely

Yes; several times but the one that keeps popping up in my head (and I'm mangling the quote, but attempting to keep the essence) is:

<trying to sound suave> "So what hobbies did you have as a child?"

<clearly not impressed> "I collected human ears."

<trying to say something as he crashes and burns> "Good times."

I know there has been about a million threads from console players complaining about the lack of a chat window, but as of today I have to say that I envy them.

I know my friends, I can imagine some of you are thinking "Are you you insane WldKarde! Why the heck would you be against our chat windows on PC?".

Because thanks to our chat window, today I "officially " became OLD.

For years now I've been using "cheaters" to be able to read things, but hey it happens to us all as we hit our 40's, so no big deal. I even found a keyboard with HUGE letters on it to help me with my typing, again, no big deal. But it turns out that it was that darn chat window that proved to be my undoing.

That darned blurry box in the lower right corner on my monitor has mocked me for the last time! Today I'm finally going to show it who's boss.

Today I'm going to the Eye Doctor.
Today I'm forced to admit I'm not a kid anymore.
Today, for the first time ever...I "almost" wish I played ESO on console.

Sigh....

I wish I could say the same... My Main reached VR 14 since I got upgraded XP point wise because of the IC update. And then they raised level cap to VR16... Did I tell you that I play since launch day XD

Also my only other char that comes close to getting to VR1 is my Sorcerer Argonian. Not sure when that one will (if ever) reach level cap

Good Day All........

Feeling grumpy today so ventured into the danger zone to try and get a laugh........

This little nugget made me chuckle.

I am however quite easily amused

Edit :- special mention goes to post #10!

Ah back to the EP sewers where all the NPCs have earned nicknames.

The adequate banker. ... who will probably keep my things safe.

The crabby merchant. .... who doesn't want to be asked (yet again) about rat poison.

And of course... scruffy cat.

Well... Maybe he had more valuable things on him but your sticky fingers stuck to that first.

So...anyone want to put money on how many NA server threads we'll get?
Up to 6 so far.

Hmm we have a hurricane coming in too. Let's make this a weekend count.

I'll say 20 by midnight Sunday EST

I think the real betting should be on the average time-to-moderator-lock on those threads...

My fingers are not sticky.

And anyway it sold for something like 100 gold. So that was just fine by me. I didn't mind passing up the vial of Surly Syrah wine for it.

I need some help. I have tried to work on this filk for far too long.....

(with apologies to Kenny Rodgers)

You've got to know when to Tank 'em
And when to gank 'em
You've got to know when to Bolt Escape
And when to Stealth

You never count your Telvars
While your still inside the sewers
'Cause until its with the Banker
Can't assume that it's your wealth

You've done pretty well with it
The rythym is a little off on the first part, not enough Knows

Thanks for the help! I still need to work on the rest of the song. .... have the feeling it should be an old NB who is the "gambler".

In order to do a video I'd have to 1-know how to (hey, the fact that I could do narrated powerpoints for my college classes is still a shock), and 2-be a charismatic performer.... not so much with that.

I admit I would like to hear it though - also it probably should be sung by a guy.

<<<neither a singer or charismatic lol
I'm betting we might have somebody around here who is, tho.
This sounds like it could be a fun video if acted out and everything.

This just in!

Our very own @newtinmpls and @Xendyn are hitting the road to Nashville to begin casting for the new hit video "The IC Gambler"

And people thought this thread was only about popcorn, puppies and all around zaniness...4 shame! We got us some songwriters here

The to be announced video premier after-party will of course be catered by our own @UrQuan (world renowned creator of Tamriel cuisine), with freshly prepared fish caught by none other than @MissBizz

That's just how we roll here in the "Thread for PC Users" (a subsidiary of the @P3ZZL3 entertainment network)


Sorry folks...I just couldn't help it.
I'll show myself out

Nice idea Maybe just also a small change to last line in the second verse?

You never count your Telvars
While youre still inside the sewers
Cause until theyre with the banker
They could become anothers wealth..

Ok an old NB as the gambler.. Forgive me if this part of the song has been done already, I havent read the whole thread but heres something to start with that can be worked as you see fit-

On a warm mid years evening
In some forgotten village's inn
I met up with an aged rogue
We were both too tired to sleep
So we took turns a'sippin
on large mugs of low grade mead
The boredom overtook us,
and he began to speak..

He said, "Son, I've made a life
Out of fightin' all different races
Knowin' theyve been defeated
By the way they held their eyes
So if you don't mind me sayin'
Ive seen your look on many faces
For that worn out blade youre wearin'
I'll give you some advice"

all I got right now lol

Note to self...

send @Vulsahdaal to Nashville also


Oops, sorry folks...forgot I promised to leave
