Good to know the report button is essentially pointless then.

It's not your personal "DONT LIKE" button.

You are an unpleasant person and I find your post offensive. Reported.

Seeing as you brought the fact that the post was reported by you into the public domain, these are exactly the kind of reports that we generally don't act on. We are not the taste police. What you find offensive, is largely irrelevant I'm afraid. Our job is to act on reports that may have potential legal consequences, and as much as you would like to think so, poor taste isn't in that class.

Over half the reports we get are people complaining about other people saying things that they consider to be offensive. Our own personal view and moral compass doesn't come into it, and sometimes we might agree, but we're not going to do anything about it. It's just a waste of our time quite honestly.

Surely there's a 10 day limit on results based insults?

I dunno, they're probably doing those people a favour.

Remind me again who pays IOMG administration costs?

That's their extended warranty though, you're entitled to a normal warranty under the sale of goods act. If they told you there's no warranty at all, they lied to you.

All that said, sounds like the Waltons deal is still better so good for them, I'm always happy to support local business provided they don't take the piss.

Finally met Stu Peters this afternoon in his coffee shop. In a pink polo shirt. Hmmm.

Fine. Pay your money, take your shit. Figured it might be a way of displaying minor dissent. Sending a message etc.

Not paying it at all would be a better message than deliberately incurring costs for the taxpayer.

If even just 25% of the poo tax recipients refused to pay, it would make for an interesting decision they'd have to take.

Does the IOM Government, or the WASA, or whoever is collecting the money have to pay commercial bank charges? It costs 65p to pay a cheque in to a business account.

You're one of those people who takes ages to make their moves because they're distracted by cat videos on YouTube, right?

I kinda like HS, played a couple of ranked games now and started to build some custom decks and I'm starting to get the strategies (never played a TGC before). It's a bit slow for me though as a PC game, I feel like I'm spending too much time waiting for things to happen. I know it's coming to tablets though so when it does I think it's going to be an enormous timesink for me. It's the kind of thing that's perfect for large screen mobile gaming.

If a contractor delivered three months ahead to me I'd be questioning whether their initial quote was inflated.

You hire a plumber who tell you a job will take seven days and charges you for seven days but completes in four, you're telling me you don't query it?

Can we do business sometime?

Dont forget Kilrogg is connected to Runetotem where a bunch of old hippies and Manx people are probably kicking around. Connected realms are merged realms by another name.

Ran into Tango in Amsterdam. Went for coffee and, err, cake.

Rage makes you blind to sarcasm clearly.

 

 

Ans, you come in on the thread to tell everyone they are being nosey? What are you doing here?

 

You realise he's a mod, yes?

Really? Because he keeps that a secret and doesn't use it to try and intimidate other forum users.

Please, tell us more about your persecution complex. This is absolutely the most appropriate thread for it.

 

 

It would be a terrible society if people didn't care what was going on, wouldn't it?

Apparently not, according to Chairman Ans, who wants complete state control of all information so the public are only told what they 'need' to know.

As someone who is no stranger to the report button to tell us what they think about what others say, I find your contrarian position difficult to reconcile.

Seems to me that when you don't know something, the urge to find out consumes you and when you do, you're terrified of becoming less special when everyone else finds out.

Also, you're a dickhead.

Those that need to know, do. Those that don't, are just nosy.

Where's my £5

No idea, I have an active account in WoW that I still dabble with. Maybe that's why.

As you might remember, I quit back in Dec 09 and didn't touch the game until back end of last year when I was housebound for three months. In the time I was away, it's actually become super casual friendly in that you tool around using automated matchmaking for Raids, meaning you can dip in and out to do a wing of a raid instance in less than an hour at any time of the day. There's no way I could return to a proper guild raiding schedule, but ad hoc raids when I feel like it? Sure. They even do cross realm groupings now meaning you're not limited to the people on your home realm so the fact that Runetotem is low pop isn't a big deal.

The missus started playing a few months ago too and that's been fun levelling up a couple of toons together slowly. Most of my own entertainment comes from soloing old content for giggles and redundant loot though. I'm still trying to get the Ashes of A'lar every week (57 kills and counting grr) but there's absolutely no commitment for anything outside of what I can be arsed to do. That suits me. There's still plenty of lunatics that give up all their free time to it, but you don't have to do that anymore unless you want the absolute best gear around.

I got a Hearthstone beta a while back. I think it might make a good tablet game (I gather iOS is soon and Android is later) but it really didn't grab me at all on a PC.

I think you can add oblivious to that list.

How's that whole "not wanting to appear smug" thing going?

Who was comparing it to train crash deaths? Good job lightening up the thread you pillock.

I take your point, but when I cycle or walk past there regularly and see very little change from a day to day basis, I really don't think there's as much going as they'd like you to believe.

I dont care whether they're contractors or DoI salaried staff, they're still the responsibility of the DoI and I would expect them to be managed properly.
