Jarhead89 posted a message on Sons of OhrAs one of the original members of this site, I was there alongside jetrall to witness the rise, and fall, of SICK. I was there when it was created, when it expanded into the legions, and when it collapsed again.Posted in: News
The times we did have with SICK were glorious, and the slow death of it was even more so. Something which once had us clocking up 20+ hours of Diablo 2 a week, now resides in the sites archives.
The core members of SICK are long gone, and only a select few of you, including jetrall, know who i am speaking of. I wish Jetrall the best of luck and hope to join his venture sometime soon. -

Jarhead89 posted a message on Diablofans - WWI Card Tyrael Pet ContestSuggestions for TradingPosted in: News
- There needs to be a stable currency. High runes were the main currency in D2 (and earlier on, SoJ's), and it was quite difficult for your everyday player to obtain these items. Gold definately needs a more important role in d3. The game should FORCE the player to embrace gold as the main currency and wealth, rather than items. It should be used for EVERYTHING.
- Keep item tetris! This is one of those little things that you took for granted in diablo 2, but it was one of those things that made the game awesome in its own way.
- Enable players to trade more freely without the need to constantly create games specifically for the purpose of trading. At any one time on diablo 2, 90% of the games infront of you were for trading. Provide an auction place, a market of some kind, that can be accessed no matter what game you are in, be it your first time playing or in the middle of a run of some kind with friends.
- Make some items bind on pickup/equip. It can completely change the way trading works, and will eliminate the age old d2 problem of items being the absolute currency.
Suggestions for PVP
- Team duels need to be encouraged. Diablo 2 PVP was 99% of the time all about 1v1. Team aspects can be very fun.
- Allow duels to take place casually as in diablo 2, or at various battlegrounds/arenas/areas that are specifically designed for PVP.
- Offer rewards and incentives for those who excell at PVP, as well as some kind of ranking system. Some prefer to be top of the ladder, but some may want to be the best player killer out there.
- Allow game creators to choose the way PVP works in their particular game, ie: both parties must consent to a duel before it can commence, or players can become hostile with anyone they want, whenever they want. This eliminates the problems caused with ganking, but also gives players the option to live life on the edge.
- Allow PVP to be possible in hardcore, if there is hardcore, without players dying permenantly, eg: have a player automatically surrender when they reach 1hp. Because hardcore players might like to duel too.
- Official PVP tournaments, with titles/rewards given to the top players in their field. -

Jarhead89 posted a message on Diablo and Blizzard General Trademark activity!I think there is a MASSIVE giveaway that d3 is around the corner, not sc sequel.Posted in: News
My main reasoning? and i quote: "Frostmorne - Replica weapons, namely swords and daggers; sword scabbards; sword belts"
Now i dont know about you blokes but that doesnt sound like something from starcraft. It sounds like...oh...DIABLO WEAPONS? IN CONJUNCTION WITH A NEW DIABLO TRADEMARK?!?!?! :D:D:D -

Jarhead89 posted a message on The Final Diablo 3 is Coming argumentHey guys im new to the forum...from australiaPosted in: News
Just wanted to say ive been a loyal d2 fan for years and im glad some people actually get off their asses and inform the people of d3.
Ive been reading random websites and forums about d3 for about 6 hours now and im almost 100% sure d3 is coming...it might still be a while off but its definately coming.
Cheers. - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

High runes are the currency, you'll use them to buy things, and you'll receive them for selling things.
You might want to have a look at D2JSP (.com), its the biggest diablo2 trading community around and is considered the standard for trading these days.
The recent patch fixed more than 1 duping method, and increased the drop rate of high runes. Respec is possible, so dont worry about what you pick to start with, you can always change later.
If your keen on a sorc, blizz sorc seems the way to go. Cheap to build and good for mfing, they will provide the basis of your wealth.
Hope some of this has helped.

I agree with what your saying. The economy of D2JSP is far from perfect, but its much better than the economy diablo 2 provides because d2 was never planned to have one. Blizzard certainly did not foresee the huge demand that there is for trading.
@ Matt.J
I stop reading your posts shortly after I realise there is actually effort involved in an attempt to unravel the bullshit that spills from your over inflated head onto your keyboard.

Cry less you bunch of girls.
I used to be a regular on this forum. Im sure some of you remember me. Im sure most of you dont.
Ive been lurking around recently, catching up on diablo 3 related news, reading about the upcoming d2lod patch, the usual stuff.
And im noticing alot of CRYING about diablo 3.
Bitching.
Moaning.
"Oh, i dont like the name of the witch doctor!"
"The classes are not unique enough!"
"Bring back teh necr0. H1s lyk teh pwnage!"
"I WANT MY OVERPOWERED PALLY"
"Its going to be too easy..."
And the list goes on.
Wait, i apologise. Im sure most of you were on your rags when you wrote those things.
How about you wait. You wait for diablo 3. You play it, and i guarentee you will. And you will love it. It will recieve epic ratings. Praise. Awards. Its blizzard you tards. Its diablo. When have they ever failed to deliver on one of there 3 big franchises?
Heres a suggestion...grow a set!
Is anyone else completely happy with everything they see and know about diablo 3?
Does anybody else have no complaints?
Or am i the only one who would like to praise Bashiok and the rest of the team for working on yet another game thats already looking great and is going to blow everyone away without fail?
I could be.
Its just kinda pathetic that a majority of the threads about diablo 3 are complaints. Rants. Incoherant bullshit.
A question for Bashiok:
Do you want to kick the whining little bitches in the teeth as much as i do?

The cancer in the family was my mum. So it was a very hard 6 months. Shes the fittest healthiest woman you will meet of her age, she is a gym teacher, and she still got it. Some cancers do no discriminate. But she had some surgery, chemo and radiotherapy, and its all good, her hair is growing back and everything. She doesnt have to see a doctor for 6 months.
As for the girlfriends, lol, im not trying to talk myself up by saying a couple, but they were both very different relationships. The first one was with a younger girl, who i didnt know very well at all, which lasted 6 months, and was full of fighting and i dont know why i didnt get out of it sooner. It ended very bad. I no longer speak to her and have no wishes to do so ever again. The second girl was someone alot closer, and she meant alot more to me. It only lasted 3 months and then she dumped me, which hurt alot, because she was something special, and it was my fault.
Now, a couple of months down the track, mum is healthy, im over the girls, and ready to get on with life. So i thought, perfect time to come back and say hi to my favourite people on the web
I love most of you.

Your entitled to your opinion and yours actually makes sense, but this line that you said stood out. With stupidity.
How can you not give a shit about who inspired bands when 90% of the time, influences not only have impact on the music, but the fact that the bands exist. If it werent for bands like Metallica, bands like Trivium would NOT exist, let alone have music that is as good as it is.

You fucking idiot...
First of all, Thasador is making the shirts for FANS of BLIZZARD who have paid for BLIZZARD games and have paid for a ticket to attend BLIZZCON. What the hell is wrong with that? He is not making the shirts to promote blizzard, hes making them to promote us, the fans, and our communities like diablofans.com.
Secondly, why the fuck do you think you are some kind of knight in shining armor for blizzard? Who the hell died and made you chief of dobbing people in? And also, how are you going to know whether Thasador sells them or not? You going to follow him around are you? Bug his phones? Go through his trash? Well actually i dont doubt that you go through peoples trash but thats beside the point...
Lets say this. Say people buy plain black t shirts. They give them to thasador, he puts the design on them, and gives them back. Has he done anything wrong? Has he sold something something with blizzards logos on it? No, he hasnt. So whats the difference between that and people giving Thasador money not for sale or for profit, but for reimbursement?
Honestly you sound like one of those guys who calls the cops when he heres a noise after 10pm.

You are the sadest person i have ever seen around these forums. Any money says you at one point in your life have broken copyright laws, or engaged in some form of downloading/copying something you didnt pay for.
Thasador out of the goodness of his heart has offered to make these shirts for the people from this and other fansites who are attending blizzcon, and would only sell the shirts to receive reimbursement for the money he spent on making these, not to make a profit.
Im going to notify Blizzard how much of a sad whinging little cunt you are so you may not purchase their fucking awesome games. How does that sound cocksucker? Go get a life, or better yet, in the words of Carloseus, go play in traffic.
