I don’t have a whole lot of gaming time since I started back to work.  I am sometimes exceedingly sad about this.  At other times, I find it liberating. I’ve gotten in the habit of dabbling in games.  I try this, try that, but am not really settling on anything in particular. I still play DDO once a week, and for now, it’s plenty for me.  I still have...

*waves* We’ve been running a lot of instance’s lately. It’s come to my attention some of us are confused on when to use a potion for a debuff, and when not to.

With the advent of guild websites, facebook, twitter, email, cell phone texting and the seemingly endless ways we...

I realized last week while looking through my budget, I am currently subscribed to four MMO’s.   I started looking at my games and trying to make choices.  Holding onto four games is a little ridiculous, besides being a drain on my pocketbook. At the moment, I am subscribed to DDO, LOTRO, EQ2, and WOW.  That’s a lot of games, and I can honestly...
