There's is no god damn way that I'm buying shoes over $75 USD.

You would, pal. If you had to wear them to hell!

Oooh!!! Great work. I love the one in the last post. What would i have done if it were a widescreen wallpaper!?

Yes i agree. That is inevitable. But all i meant was that i wouldn't like to see the monk all covered in metal. And a variety of robes and some refined light armor would definitely add to the grandeur. But heavy armory or weaponry would definitely spoil it.

I would also prefer the weapons to be simplistic like light blades, staffs etc. And if the spears class was there i would definitely oppose the presence of those earlier huge pikes and also those bardiches (poleaxes, spears whatever).

Isn't this just as grand as a barbarian covered in tons of metal wielding an axe twice his size?

Has anyone here heard of 27bslash6.com? Or of David Thorne?

He is this really funny Australian guy who has been providing me with some pretty hard laughs for the past few weeks. His book, 'The Internet is a Playground' is a compilation of his e-mail conversations with people and his merciless opinions about the same people conveyed through role-play. You gotta read it at least once. Although reading it a few more times would be just as fun.

HAHA! This is an image better seen.

Stormcat should have been there on the list, i vote for her but as for this list i vote for Chaos.

was it german ?

Well since the official battle.net diablo forums won't let you sign in unless you have a classic battle.net account, which would require me to reinstall Diablo II, I've decided to sign up over here. You all seem like a livelier bunch anyway.

I tried to get the name "Wolfmane" but that was already taken, so I just replaced the "a" with a "4."

Short history of my Diablo experience. I played D1 shortly after it was released but played mostly with Trainers as I was young and apparently wasn't very good at the game in its original form. I probably made it to level 10 without trainers. Bought and played Diablo II when it came out & played it for a good 5 years or so..then put it down.. waited a couple years, then picked it back up again for a year or so.. Great game, but I think I've done just about every possible thing in it.

I'm much anticipating Diablo 3, but for now, I'll stay awhile and listen....and post.

I miss Doppleganger and Goodguy's war.

Hehe - those were fun.

I miss the Carloseus rants. Thasador and Darkjay stories.
Winston's fun, Sesslers cartoons, and Atru's Dee'hablothree (probably spelled it wrong)

Zuby thought I was a guy when I first joined despite me stating I was female. hehehe
Ooo, Zuby, you beat my joining by one day. lol

Everybody loves Zuby!!!

This guy, Zubin, was the first person to welcome me to the forums those many moons ago.

Wow, that's art!

Ok I just checked the Wiki. You can swap ruins out without destroying the ruins. The availability of the ruin is related with its value. Now what I don't know if this is related to the tier of ruins, so we will always find tier 1-3, and 4-7 are on a greater degree of rarity. It may also be something like for each tier of drops there are common, uncommon, rare and epic drops, if that is the case then we've not really even thought this through enough. That would mean some sort of effect bonus per tier in relation to rarity type.

Oh that could make me dizzy.

Check out the Wiki's and Blizzcon coverage, I think all these things have been known for a long time.

Oh, and a bonus piece for you peeps! I never posted this one finished.


Marius and the Wanderer:

@ Equinox - Well before you can do anything you have to discover the root cause of the negative emotions. There are people who have really shit lives yet they can be far happier than you are. It's because they don't take everything so seriously and they are optimistic. When they're not doing anything in particular their mind won't be going over bad things that's happened to them, they won't be thinking I'm unhappy about this, or my life sucks, or why can't I have this. They'll be thinking about people they love, entertainment, things that they are passionate about or just day to day activities. They only worry when they need it to get the job done. They only feel depressed for short periods during stressful times. Once it's done or they realise there's nothing they can do further they'll drop the worry and go back to whatever their positive subconscious likes to think about.

I'm saying that if you can reprogram your subconscious (you can with enough effort) then you will slowly begin to get more positive feelings from life in general. Focus on the happy feelings you get as much as you can, and as soon as you feel a negative thought coming stop yourself. If people annoy you that's their problem. It's only detrimental to yourself to let yourself worry about it. The idea is to see the silver lining in everything.

Even if you have a bad day, where you just seem to feel shit no matter what, focus on what you have to be grateful for, don't hold grudges (Jesus was right with forgiveness) and milk everything that makes you happy for what it's worth. Everyone has passions and people that make them happy. If you focus on them for long enough every day you WILL retrain your subconscious. Learn to have dreams and take small steps to see them fulfilled. Accomplishments are a great source of confidence and happiness. For every accomplishment make sure your mind knows what a great job you did, and remind yourself of that moment when you're feeling down. Whenever you slip up realise you made a mistake and you'll do better next time.

If you do this long enough your mind will stop defaulting to the fuck this it's not going to work attitude. You feel this way because you've trained your mind to treat yourself like this. You haven't always been like this (everyone's happy when they're a little kid playing with their toys, not a care in the world) you're like this because bad experiences in the past have reinforced your negative way of thinking. It's possible to fix depression plenty of people have done it before, but you won't be able to do it without even considering what I'm saying. It could also take years of forcing yourself to think this way before your subconscious learns how to think this way, then happiness will come more naturally.

If you want to believe that I'm spouting BS go ahead.Ultimately only you can cure your depression. All I'm saying is our mind is a tool that can be instructed. You want to stop seeing everything so negatively? Relearn how to use it as God intended. It could take years but nothing's going to change if you sit idle.

Depression is just mental conditioning. Once you become depressed for whatever reason, the longer you stay depressed the more you're teaching your subconscious how to function that way. So even when you go through happy periods while you're depressed, as soon as you turn your focus your subconscious will kick in and you'll find yourself thinking negatively about yourself or those around you.

So if you've been depressed for years it will take a lot of work to get your positive thinking patterns back. It's not impossible, and every achievement helps to make you feel more fulfilled. However if you don't try and do anything about it (because depression can drain hope and will) then it will slowly get worse and worse, and harder to fix.

It could also be related to serotonin deficiencies from bad diet, not enough exercise, or bad genetics. I don't recommend anti depressants as they don't always fix the problem, usually just disguising it for a while. However they do work for many people. The main thing with depression is how your mind works. Somewhere along the way you've trained it to be depressed.

So the best thing you can do is training your mind rigorously all day every day to think happier, and commend yourself for achievements. Eat healthy, vitamins, and get all the exercise you can. Breathing properly is important, and getting enough sleep. Don't dwell on the past, you can't change it. Don't worry about trivial things of little importance. Do this for a few years (how long depends on how long you've been depressed) and you will be loaded with serotonin and have a healthy subconscious to enjoy life.
