Although, I'm not so heavily into it as most of you, not even 60 after six months. Still, you could do it to get the point across and re-up again later.
I've been playing for a year, and my main still isn't 60. Of course, that might be because my friends have switched servers approximately 4 times.
If their servers could only handle n players (and I don't believe for a moment that they didn't know at least roughly how large n was), then they should only had sold n subscriptions, instead of selling more than their servers can handle, pocketing the money and saying "sorry, we're working on it".
Blizzard adds a few new servers every month. These servers are marked as being New in their population column.
However, the way WoW is set up, anyone can create characters on a new server. It is actually more common to see queues on the new servers, as Blizzard has the cap set lower to prevent too many players from entering the lower level zones, thus crashing them.
Did I mention that the aforementioned flood of players is not all new players? It is fairly common for people who are bored with their regular servers to start new characters on a new server, where the Auction House prices haven't yet been totally screwed up.
Heck, as long as we keep upping the number of speakers, why not go to 8.1? Then you'd have speakers in all four cardinal directions, and the four points in between!
Wait, because Linus has refused to accept a more restrictive license, you say that it's "another nail in the coffin for Linux?" Versus the "anyone can copy this as long as attributions remain in the source" BSD license...?
I hope you aren't waiting for a new BSD license with DRM restrictions in it, because I don't see it happening.
You're right, he meant Station Access, which covers The Matrix Online, Star Wars Galaxies, EverQuest II, EverQuest, EverQuest Mac Edition, Planetside, Everquest Online Adventures, and the three Station Pass games.
Whether or not Station Access originally covered SWG is irrelevant, as the conversation is about how SWG is doing now.
However, it should be noted that the current XHTML 2 Working Draft doesn't have b or i tags in it, dropping them in favor of stylesheets or strong & em.
I really hate it when I see an HTML book that teaches things that have been deprecated in modern HTML.
I'm actually being forced to take a class in introductory web design. The books for this class are fairly new, yes seem to be stuck in the HTML 3.x days, with font tags, bgcolor properties, and a particular emphasis on the 216 (215?) web-safe colors.
I wish books like this one were used instead. Teaching the right way the first time is so much easier than having to tell someone that everything they learned was wrong.
Actually, unix has a tool that can do this, too. It's called su, and it stands for switch user. su username -c "command to run" works just the same as runas/user:"username" "command to run"
But also Bill Gates is due his $300 - $400 dollars for a computer operating system and a full office suite (plus anti-virus software) she should be using.
I noticed that you left out the word "each" after dollars.:P
She said "Polly want a cracker!"

As a "totally unrelated to the article" comment, I like your sig.
That's a second party title at best, as it was developerd by Silicon Knights, not Nintendo.
I think you meant "Saturn" where you put "Dreamcast." I also agree which what others have already said about the 4.5 level.
Seriously, though, since MMOs are owned by so many different companies, having one subscription to all of them is quite unlikely to happen. EVER.
I'm beginning to think that I'm the only person who creates directory hierarchies for my documents, and names them with meaningful names.
The difference being that listing fraud doesn't cost Google money, AdSense fraud does.

Well, I think that sending him to be a nanny for the Von Trapp's won't work...
I remember when LucasArts cancelled Sam and Max 2. I think they might release 1 or 2 non-SW titles a year, such as Mercenaries.
Tiggs, is that you?

This is why you should use ACID compliant database tables, rather than MyISAM^W non-ACID compliant database tables.
Did I mention that all 3 of those were based on video games? They were BloodRayne, Alone in the Dark, and House of the Dead.

Why not use <strong> instead? <strong> and <em> are structural tags that perform similarly to the <b> and <i> style tags.

It's not hidden on XP or 2003, except in the Control Panel for some reason.

What we need is a federal Do Not Mail list. :)
Everything I've heard about PEAR DB paints it as being much slower than the other alternatives. The existence of PDO seems to validate this.
