ha OTC you can read me like a book, but i wasnt saying fuck this gay shit i was saying what a fucking fag. if you really care about what people think about you on a site theirs a prob. do you have any real friends, is that why you seek approval from some random ass people? STOP BEING A SOFTIE MCFLURRY and i sorta almost dont feel bad about calling you a fag now. are you going to talk to your mom about your feelings when your done reading this?

you make the mistake of judging me, without knowing a shred about me. i dont need your approval, or anyone elses. i was just curious about whether i was being too harsh on fags such as yourself. and these arent random ass people, many i know from diablo and true, their friends over the internet. but friendship is true whether its in person or on the internet. they tell me about their struggles, and i tell them about mine. i met my best friend over the internet, you know him as Thasador. not because its easy to do it over the internet, but because we have so much in common that we ended up being best friends because we understood the other so much.

i have tons of real friends, do you? would your friends stab you in the back? mine dont and would never. as for being a softie mcflurry, i never even hinted on being soft. im not soft, im quite the opposite. a softie would never go around telling people how it is and standing for what he/she believes. call me a fag, idc. i know that im not one, and i have substancial proof to back that up. are you a fag? your very quick to call others that. i might mention it every once in a while, but most of your counterattacks have the word fag in them.

im hispanic, i grew up under two mexican parents. my culture runs very deep in our family, and i take much offense that you would bring my mother into this. i dont talk about your family, you dont talk about mine. if you do, its going to get very nasty. bring my mother into this and your asking to be kicked out of this place.

i dont know what your problem is. all i ask is an apology and you cant even do that? you would rather fight than admit you were wrong? and you are wrong, there are plenty of us that agree with me on this. swallow your pride and admit you were wrong, and are sorry. thats all you gotta do. and then never go to that thread again.

Well as you all know, there are many dumb people on this forum. Some claim they work for Blizzard. Some claim their friends freind works for Blizzard. Others are stupid in all their posts. Others are just annoying. Some dont take the time to see if then have used proper spelling or sentence structure, and the person I will alienate right now is a person Ive been having a growing problem with. Fudlow and I have have given him the loving name on WoW of zub.

Zubin is a member here that has been with us for a while. However for as long as he has been here, he has really done all he can to post, not necessarily important information, ideas, or just put his two cents in. He is notorious for his mindless posts and lack of spelling or sentence structure.

I addressed this with Zubin kindly, and he took offense. Therefore he went to some website, and made a new signature. I was unable to copy that for your viewing pleasure, but it went along the lines that people who are frustrated at others is because they are frustrated at themselves. I know as well as him why he put that as his signature. he merely deleted the paragragh and kept the second part, which i did copy. During the exchange he (as well as so many others) asked a stupid question, a question that could have been avoided by paying attention to the message, or just simply looking back at his saved messages. I told him he would earn a spot on a thread, hosted by myself, and i congratulated him. Here, is what his sig was after deleted the entire paragraph of mumbo-jumbo:

Are you referring to myself? I apologize if I offend, but I have already said I do not know anything. All i contribute is rumors or already given information that has not yet been submitted. So please, do not attack me for doing this. I am only pointing out a fake.

i know who rumoreus really is, and he isnt a fake. and i know him enough to believe him if he says someone else is being a fake.

i believe that casual abortion should not be allowed. abortion should be a last resort for rape, incest, or cases where the child will be born deformed in some way.

i do not believe that it should be made normal, because then it becomes another form of birth control, and that is wrong. people should know that they must be responsible, if you dont want to be burned, dont stick your hand in the fire. same principles. sure, sex is fun, but you must know the consequences and follow the rules humans have always lived by: dont have kids until you are in a position to take care of it.

in the movie, the army of sparta wasnt allowed to leave there because of bad predictions from the oracle. however he took 300 men, the finest of the army, and went on since he couldnt take the entire army. and so the three hundred were doing great until the goat pass was given to the persians. as far as that i think, it was accurate.

if you hold the american leaders responsible for casualties in other countries, you must be willing to accept that leaders in other countries are responsible for casualties too. the reason i say this, is because using your reasoning would mean that lincoln was responsible for the millions of americans killed during the civil war.

to get back to you fing, i think that you just dont want to accept america. i think you have something against this country, and that you are just too stubborn to accept everything we have done. the list i gave was to state just some of the goods we have done, since no one else will state them. and you feel that the US is not a good superpower huh?? who would you like to be a superpower?? who would do a better job?? if you know then tell us. the US is one of the most giving countries ever. there is no other country that gives more than us.

that is what i have to say, about my reasons to love this country the way i do. let me paint the picture for you. think of someone you love, it could be your mom, dad, brother, sister, girlfried, boyfriend, wife, husband, anyone. now think about all the good times you have together, all the good things about that person. now remember all the bad things, the fights or the things that person does or has done. compare them for a bit, dont the good ones outweigh the bad?? that is the love i have for my country, and if you think that i dont know the bads, i do. but when others talk bad about someone you love, dont you throw that aside and defend that person?? it doesnt matter if its true, you direct your rage at the offender.

that is the love and passion one should have for his/her country. now give me more stuff i am too thick headed to accept. o and by the way, greece did play a role in the world, but the greatest it ever was in ancient times. they are just a shadow of what they once were. the greece slowed down german advance, the US is the main reason the germans lost. see that?? please use a better example than greece.

US>most of the world

yes i said it.

my brother i rejoice for your return to the light.

your past....... it stirs something in my memory. yes..... i recall a memory i had not remembered since i experienced it.

before i had been saved by our lord god i had stumbled accross a necromancer of evil deeds. he had torn from his teachings by rathma and had traveled the lands slaying all that crossed his path, then bringing their dead bodies and soul to torment as they did his bidding.

i unfortunately crossed paths with this summoner of the dead. he offered me wealth, power, all of my hearts desires. i refused, having other tasks at hand. as i turned to leave, in my way were his minions. a quick glance to either sides of my vision told me i was now surrounded. a second later i had unlatched my sword from its sheath on my back and was hacking at these productions of taboo. as i felled one after another the necromancer grimaced. i made my way to him, and he produced from his side a skull. he held it before me and muttered a curse under his breathe. my movement slowed as i felt my body resist. the force of will i retalliated with burst and broke the spell i was under and i caught him by surprise.

i quickly split my swords as he summoned more minions and began to cut through them. i roared a mighty battle cry and my inner strength awakened. i quickly diced the animations as i ran at him now. i merged my swords and slashed at him. the powers that escaped him scarred me as they descended. on my left hand a large mark of the black magic still shows its effect after thousands of years.

i struggled to keep from falling. my body coarsed with pain. i walked to the closest city, the great city of Kurast. i made my way through the streets as my oversized sword dragged behind me. Ormus, the wiseman of the region assisted me and i walked out the next week energized and invigorated with his help.

the pain in this memory comes from the necromancer, and the events that happened after i left kurast. i traveled the lands, and came to the barbarian north. here were legions of demons making war upon the mighty yet few barbarians. i assisted the protectors of the worldstone for as long as i could. months, years dragged by as i crippled their armies, but more came. one day came, a day when i had been woken in a hurry for the enemy was advancing and taking the feild. the long held battle was at its end, and i would take a large roll in it.

i readied my armor, my weapons, and myself. i departed alone at first, i was to cripple them before the others came. i used every spell, every glamorous attack; flame covered my blades, white fire came from my eyes, and every hit i made slaughtered many. for hours i fought, trying to turn back the army. i had somehow made my way to the center of the mass, surrounded by thousands of growling orcs and demons. the barbarians rushed to help, and tried to get to me before i was taken.

i fought and resisted being overwhelmed and taken, parting evil from the mortal plane as i struggled for dear life. then i was taken. they all threw themselves at me, and many followed them. daggers scratched at my armor, swords however tore through and sunk into my arms, legs, and chest. inability to move, panic, and death began to come to me. i struggled to keep awake but sensed my consciousness slipping away. with the last of my energy i yelled. i yelled a roar that trembled past the forests, the sea, and made it to far and distant lands. the energy i summoned was the last i could afford. my dying actions were to rid the battle field of demons, to slay them all by magic.

i lay there spent. my companions of war would arrive, but too late. i slipped into darkness, my mind thrown into a sea of my own confusion. when i opened my eyes i saw what appeared to be clouds and silver light in the sky.

"Carloseus, shall not fall this day, he shall rise to fall another day. Arise Carloseus!!" i glanced up but saw only a figure overwhelmed by the light behind him. there stood the being from my dream. Silversurfnstud. Without hesitation I arose and bowed before him. In return he granted me the gift of new life, as well as granting me only one way to die, and that was by sword.

in return, i have traveled the lands again, but with a purpose. for thousands of years i fought in countless battles in the name of my god and his next in command. in his name and service i have cleansed many lands and slayed countless horrors. time has meant no time for me.

i have prepared something for our lords, which i hope they find fit:


"Meus Deus Argentum quod Senior Elfen to order mihi. In nomen of SICK EGO vadum purgo malum qua EGO roam, quod addo lux lucis ut obscurum. Is est meus negotium, vel meus vita est forfeit." -Carloseus

"My God Silver and Lord Elfen command me. In the name of SICK I shall cleanse evil where I roam, and bring light to darkness. This is my task, or my life is forfeit." -Carloseus

Carlos, I think you are one of the nicest guys I have met from Ryan's friends. Dont listen to what other people have to say and be yourself. <3

I do belive Pandemic is a more suitable term for this. (an outbreak of an infectious disease) that spreads across a large region (for example a continent), or even worldwide. As you can see the spam has spread everywhere... except the spam forums, go figure. (Spam forums don't increase post count.)

I agree about this spam shit, Im not talking about one member its with a whole. Today I logged on to find 13 spam threads by one member, I do belive that calls for an ip ban? Upon the literacy subject, I hate to see threads with jumbled crap in them... Lmaozors teh nubb, bad someone who cant speak english well thats fine, they are trying to post good information and contribute.
I hate to see all of those 'How is my avatar' threads, though I will generally post my thoughts in them, I just wish they would put them in the spam section where they belong. Everyone is responsible for dumb threads pointless posts and shit spam. Their isnt a person on here that hasen't contributed to this. I would love to see it stop, but sadly that won't happen, the only way to do anything about it would be to elimenate post counts. And still Im not sure if that would work.

Paul Sams exclusively denied the existence of a console game in development at the current time. He all-out dodged a few questions which you can interpret as him having all the information and not being able to disclose it, or having almost none of the information, but when he comes out and says definitively "We don't have console plans" then you can rest assured that Blizzard is not hiding some ultra secret console dev team.

You can't lie to the public - but you can sure as hell be cagey about your responses to questions that you are unable to answer honestly without sacrificing some prestige and element of surprise for future releases.

As for his reaction to the Diablo question - like we've all known, Blizzard knows damn well that Diablo is a very popular franchise and also a great money maker for them.

I think it caught him off guard, because in my opinion, maybe this whole Diablo-less Blizzcon could have been to throw us off the scent a little bit. I wanted D3 announced at Blizzcon as much as many of you devout fans out there, but at this point we all have to reinterpret what has just happened to us. Based on what Sams said, Diablo is still a living franchise (and he obviously hadn't much to say past that) and that we can expect to see it revisited. I don't think Blizzard is giving us a giant middle finger, because it's clear to them based on the community and the continuing number of players of the Diablo 2/D2x that we're not just meant to be passified, we need to be satisfied, and they have a lot on their plate right now and as such will not be coerced into producing crap (which we clearly don't want) so all the Diablo fans will shut their mouths.

I for one wouldn't stand for a new subpar Diablo product. I can't blame Blizzard for their hangups with Warcraft, but at the moment it's their most popular product. Remember when Diablo was on the top of the heap?

Same story.

Also, another thing I can't tolerate are people saying "Oh I saw a job posting for a mobile developer on the Blizzard site, Diablo 3 is going mobile, sorry guys you lose." That is absolute nonsense. How does anyone know that Blizzard doesn't want to create a new Lost Vikings game for the handheld market (cell-phone, as handheld might fall under console)? How do we know they're not just planning a stand-alone app that allows you to check Blizzard news and ladder status (beacuse they're pushing the PvP eSport angle more in North America now, and our addiction to cheesy cell-phone apps is flagrant)?

Let's all take a deep breath and rethink this. Nobody get up in arms over Blizzard's decisions. I'm sure they'll follow through with thier promises, and if you want to follow the ever-so-popular "decade" theory, we're not due up for a sequel until 2011. That certainly sucks, but it would give them enough time to have SC2 out and fully supported while WoW dwindles a bit and those fans jump ship for a new taste of adventure.

It's so disheartening, but we still stand strong as a community and we don't have to stop analyzing artwork and release dates and coincidences, it's actually kind of fun. Just use some logic and it turns out to make the waiting less painful.

Ok, I'm goin to go do some MF runs

Hello to all you Diablo fans. I'm sure most of you are disappointed and downright depressed about the absence of Diablo at this weekend's BlizzCon. I'm sure it's hard to realize there can't possibly be a cure to this seemingly life-threatening illness. But in fact there is.

There are multiple cures, for multiple patients. Some will vary on others, most will work. Some may have side effects, while some will benefit. Here are the cures you should know about.

Cure #1: Take a moment to sit down and think, and think along these lines: "Man, Diablo wasn't at this BlizzCon either! That makes two in a row!" Now think about what that means to Blizzard Entertainment. They are well aware they have omitted Diablo from these past BlizzCons, minus the Tristram theme song. You know what they have to do now? You guessed it:

They need to make up for it. And mark my words, they will.

The next BlizzCon or large gaming event will probably feature Diablo III. It's downright inevitable. StarCraft II is announced, that won't be out for over a year, WoW's newest expansion won't make it out for about 8 months, so that leaves a huge gap of nothingness for Blizzard to toy with. Just think this way: There are at least two large gaming events left this year: Leipzig Game Convention in late August, and E for All Expo in late October.

The E for All Expo is to replace the E3 event that, until this year, was considered a huge spotlight for games. Blizzard announced many games at E3 in the past, including Diablo II. The event is four days long. It may not house the official annoucement, but expect some feedback from the developers at Blizzard about "Team 3". GC (Leipzig Game Convention) is also four days long, and very large as well. Blizzard (I assume) will be attending both these events. Expect more rumors of "Team 3" to surface there as well.

My prediction: The GC later this month will unveil the Zerg for StarCraft II, along with more information on WoW: WotLK. E for All Expo will be the start of (if not the unveiling of) Diablo III's existence. Reminder - the GC is in October - the same month the final Sin War book is released.

Cure #2: Revitalize yourself. Get that "I can wait" mindset you had before BlizzCon. This is the hardest cure to achieve, but it can be done. The longer the game waits, the better it can only get. Sure, the Convention was totally biased, but BlizzCons of the future will be home to Diablo someday. World of Warcraft will eventually run its course. I can honestly only see one more expansion after Wrath of the Lich King being announced. The expansions become worthless to casual gamers as things get more difficult and require more gaming time and devotion. Hell, there are many complaints already.

But for those that say WoW is dying, you are wrong. Just a few weeks ago, Blizzard announced the game has 9 million active subscribers. That's quite an achievement, and having that kind of fanbase should enthuse Diablo fans, and you're probably wondering why I say this.

The reason why I say this, is because if Blizzard decides to churn out Diablo III, WoW will still have millions of subscribers that are loyal to the game. Diablo III would take some fans away, true, but when WoW remains a multimillion-dollar-a-year game, Blizzard won't complain. Diablo III itself would be a multimillion (if not close to a billion) dollar game. Trust me, you can all wait.

Cure #3: Take your anger out someplace harmless. E-mailing Blizzard telling them, "OMFG YOU NOOBS DON'T KNOW WTF WE WANT... LAWL YOU PLAYED TRISTRAM BUT NO DIABLO WAS THERE GEE GEE BLIZZFUCKS", that doesn't really fix anything. That is more or less of a complaint, something I admit to have done a fair share of myself. Blizzard won't respond to a complaint like that. You want them to listen, send something like this, "I really enjoyed the events that took place at BlizzCon this weekend. I was looking forward to seeing some Diablo, but I'll wait until next time." A message like that, will keep Blizzard a lot less frustrated and careless, and make them more optimistic that the Diablo community is respectful, and worthy of a new game.

If you can't channel your anger into civil thinking, post in the threads here. We'll listen. There will be plenty to join you, I'm sure.

That's the only 3 cures I know of. Anyone know any others?

We went from the greatest minds of their day, to today's most craziest jackasses in the world, interesting. Thank you Paris, Jesse Jackson, Nicol Richie, Anna Nicole Smith, Michael Moore and many others.

The US is still the greatest nation in the world. I just wish we can boot out all the jackasses that don't appreciate it and think they know better.

So I'm guessing the whole Forum gold is a no?

fourm gold as in the orginal idea of this thread, more than likely a no.

reputation system making a return, provided a suitable reward and or/use other than to see who you should believe, that is more probable.

Situation 1: Ryan is lying. What a jackass!
|
*Situation 1.b: Ryan works for blizzard, and is generating hype for the game. Truth and lies do not matter. His mission is attention. He has accomplished his task.*

Situation 2: Ryan's contacts are lying. Shit on a stick! No one will believe this excuse even if it were true. It is impossible to prove.

Situation 3: Ryan is telling <50% truth. Nice estimation!
Situation 4: Ryan is telling >50% truth. His sources were reliable.

*Situation 1.b could also be applied to Situation 3 and 4.

Therefore, I would say there is a 60% chance ryan works for Blizzard. Spreading true and false rumors to generate hype. There is also a 20% chance that Ryan is lying himself, or his contacts are lying. Finally a 10% chance Ryan is telling the truth.

Based on these percentages, When Blizzard does release information about D3, I am going to bet that 10% of Ryans information will be accurate.

I think bits and pieces are accurate. I would say some spells might be true. The whip weapon is true. About 5% - 10% of the story is true.

So, why do I think ryan works at blizzard and will revealed about 10% of truth??????

THINK ABOUT IT!

There is very intricate information here. Classes, Spells, but most importantly, the story. That is one crazy story. A story so crazy, so insane, that it just might be believable. Why... because a Blizzard employee wrote it. I wouldnt be suprised if that was the first part of the first draft of the D3 story.

Ryan joined in October of 06, he gained a nice post count to get credibility, and the posted this thread when the time was right.

Like it or not, Blizzard, as well as other companies have leak schedules to generate hype. This was a strategic move by Blizz. They wanted some hype going into the holiday season and the new year. Making gamers anxious of what is in store for 2007.

Blizzard said there will be 3 big annoucements in 07.
1. Diablo 3
2. Starcraft 2
3. World of Warcraft: Expansion 2

Anyways, this is the most logical conclusion. Ryan works for Blizz. But then again, maybe I do too...!?

I'm sure everyone remembers this?

Char LIst
Chronomancer-Chrono meaning "time". Soruce didn't have time to try out.
Monster Tamer-skills for taming demons and others.
Templar-More atuned to melee combat. combat masteries like barbarian.
Warlock-Male sorcerer. earth/wind/psyonic
Fighter-Hand to hand combat. Recieves bonuses without any weapons or shields. Skills much like assassin but no charge up.
Also the source said that u could still use all existing d2 and d2 lod chars in d3 and that u could switch d2 chars over into diablo 3
(SOmehwhat sounds like and expansion to d2 lod to me)

The source also said that the game was a bit glitchy but this could possibly be from the new havok 4 system that was intrigrated

The game starts were you are left off in Horagath. Rejoice for prime evils banished, however, other evils walk the earth.

also the source said that d3 would include alot more char detail as in char movement for certain actions

exp u drink a potion ur char actually grabs potion from belt and drinks it on screen
Ryan also said he would be Visiting his source again and would be relaying more evidence (possible screenies) to myself as/if he recieves them
He stated that the programming in the game wouldnt allow screenies to be taken(as i have heard of this in most beta/demo games)
but i told him digital camera or screen shot program ect would work fine

Like i said I blieve it to be true but must put a warning saying it might not be because of the lack of hard evidence and to cover everyones ass's



Well before u go off flaming me. read everything i have to say. first of all. ryan i do apologize for my rude behavior. and here is y. my sourc told me 2 chars. and 3 of them r currently being held secret by the ceo the manager and 2 unnamed people. altho as u can all see it was leaked. how u say? the last manager was fired for leaking info. not this stuff. but serious stuff that somehow hasnt reached these pages yet. and wana know how long ago he was fired? close to 2weeks ago. intresting yes?

And to soothe some of u. the potion animation has been takin out. the d2 players on the team made sure of that. the havok is just a rumor however is not on d3. and sadly at the moment u CAN convert chars from d2 into d3. altho there is a current vote going on whether to change it or not. the kids they do have testing it dont agree with converting. and yes they do have kids testing it. but not ur lil 10 yr old kids. 15-18 or so im sure. and they get paid to do this testing which means they have a legal contract means they need to shut the fuck up or blizzard sues them. so i think about covered it all? i for one can second most of wut ryan has said is true.

oh one last thing. the people they did happen to send the beta's to. they made sure they buffed the security on the game. and they also removed all camera's, webcam's and anything else might take a picture of their precious game.

one last thing. i got a time frame on when the game might be release. granted its not definate. they cud run into more bugs (they r fixing bugs right now btw) or they cud get lucky. but anywhere from 2-4 years. so u guys can sit on this for a minute. grab ur toilet paper some of u may need to wipe urself.

hhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmm... (get boring of thinking...) hahaha.... i dont know!

Back By Popular Demand its....
