The RP means that Role Play is enforced, where as RE means it is strongly encouraged, but not enforced.

You're right, you got mounted combat with or without the expansion, but one, to get the full benefit of mounted combat you either bought the expansion or unlocked it via the store, and two,...

I agree in sentiment on many of the below, however wording is playing a negative role here...first;



And the one including almost completely revamped gameplay mechanics...it isn't exactly...

Turbine is only soliciting donations outside of the game, the cloak is to raise awareness of the charity...as I said before, this is the same as back when members at Turbine were working for the...

I think it's a pretty simple thing...Turbine is located in the Boston area, the event took place in the Boston area.

If Turbine were located elsewhere that events like this happen, I'm pretty sure...

I'm sorry you feel that way. As for my 'trolling, insulting, and ridiculing' my way through these years and years, I would assume that if that were the case that my time on the forums wouldn't have...

And the same goes for me...

If you email me, the only thing I ask is that you do so as cordial as possible, any derogatory...

There is some fleshing out of a few in Sauron's field, albeit those are again only given a brief introduction and after such tossed to the wayside.

The bulk of what the Professor wrote about the...

No, this isn't going to be a spoiler.

During the credits under the Special Thanks section apparently either 2k or Irrational tossed some love to Turbine.

Wonder what that was for? :)

You know what would be the smart thing to do? Don't comment about software development practices unless you are actually aware how the process works.

Software defects are going to happen no...

You're kidding, right?

There are absolutely no computer out there "immune" to a virus. If you want to get into semantics about terminology, do so elsewhere.

Having a Mac doesn't mean you cannot have Spy/Malware or a virus.


Either your computer is infected with the aforementioned items, or you downloaded LOTRO from somewhere other than here.

Well, checking out Goldshire on Moonguard generally screams otherwise...there's plenty of rather scary things that happen there daily.

Internal shifting of a company is generally not public knowledge outside of the actual act. You won't get reasoning, you won't get a list of those affected, and you'll rarely get anything more than...

Without knowing the full scope, I cannot make anything more than a speculative statement, which is what I started with.

Without knowing the full scale of the departments affected, you're right, it...

It depends on the company and the newspaper...for example, in San Jose (where I live) it is not uncommon for the Mercury News to make mentions of layoffs of temporary staff (that I know explicitly,...

I think this is where you're misconstruing what I typed...I was implying that releasing temp workers is a common practice and one that has been done before after the major releases in LOTRO, you...

I never said Clover was temp, I said that was probably a large portion of the staff let go and that this is a common practice after major releases. And yes, this has happened with the past...

If I were to speculate, I'd say that with the timing that it's mainly temporary staff seeing as we just had RoR launch. That's not to say that they were the only ones, but it seems like SOP to me...

That would be the reason why there hasn't been a universal fix applied. Tracking down software issues when they don't equally affect all hardware is one of the hardest things to do. The sheer...

What are you talking about? If Turbine "borked ROR, period", then no one would be playing. What we have here are incidents that seem to be related to both system configs and their interactions with...

How is asking if they went through steps troubleshooting the problem on their end first BEFORE laying all of the blame at Turbine's feet 'blaming the customer'?

And there's the issue...

What *you* find fun is not what everyone else might find fun. While you may like raiding, there's dozens of people to find it not-fun.

WoW and Rift are games built...

As has been posted a few times, this is a Facebook-based contest...it goes along with the forum-based, the twitter-based, and the web-based contests that they've run in the past and are currently...

Depending on how the bot is grabbing the information, scrapping a site continuously can cause major issues on the back-end. It's one reason some people limit web-spiders access to their forums, and...
