Yeah wake me up when they have WiMax SIP based phones. I predict a mom and pop telco industry will rise up to offer cometitive prices just like the first ISPs.
That's value, not quality. Slashdot is not a URL that come to mind when I think about quality of content. It's actually the opposite... it's like the dirty gossip tabloid of the tech industry.
Er, I take a normal adult dose of 30 Mg a day, separated in one 20 mg in the morning and 10 mg in the afternoon. you must have a typo in there because you'd OD way before 300Mg a day. And blaming this for you current drug use is so lame IMO.

You're changing the subject. This whole sub-thread is about pointing out that you original argument about "but no one can get online to play it" and the game having long waiting queues is wrong sice the author was talking about server crashes.

No, every city in guild wars is a server with a login cap. If you can't connect to a specific server because it's full, the game creates a new server instance on the fly to accomodate the player increase (it's still a server in the MMO sense). Similarly, I don't see why we are not given the option to login on another server if we don't feel like waiting for the queue.
But regardless of how Guild Wars and WoW work, it doesn't change the fact that character portability would greatly benefit WoW players.

If that's a problem for you and others, just don't play on other servers and wait in the queu all you want. That shouldn't be a reason to block server transfers for the rest of us who don't care about guild meetings.

I don't see why there needs to be a limit on character transfter. From a certain point of view, each server is just a different instance of the same world. If one of those if too busy, I'd like to have the option to login to another one that has room right away. There's not practical reason why my character should by tied to a specific server.
I much as I understand some of the privacy concerns people have for Google, they don't actually offer an alternative. any other search engine out there collects data on it's users. It's part of the recipe they have to make money.

There is no established corelation between ADD and that.

Richard Garriot's new game Tabula Rasa will bring back all the missed freedom of UO and more (here's to hoping).
Because Blizzard & Co.'s business model is to charge you to play for as long as possible.
That hilarious!

Wow, nice PR move sweeps away search engine fanboys everywhere. /cynicism
Good only if you never upgrade your hardware and it never breaks down.
