I am a returning user (my original account is Darius099). I was attempting to merge my accounts but cannot log into my old account and have no idea what email address it's associated with (I tried every one I know of).
Do not work. The indicated link is a 404. In addition, since I don't know my old password, it may not work. I can describe some details of what PM's I had in my PM inbox and other account details if asked to confirm it's mine, but I want it linked to my Curse account (email is: darius099 at gmail dot com)
I'm a Bench Technician at a PC Repair place in Columbus GA, and I do basically all the in-office software work and most of the hardware too.
ComboFix (the miracle worker)
Trojan Remover (great quick settings reverter options too)
SuperAntiSpyware (gets a couple things Malwarebytes doesn't)
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (shotgun effect)
AVG (least intrusive and most user friendly while remaining effective, for general purpose AV)
Webroot SpySweeper (about as good as AVG, we usually keep both installed on our admin machines and trade them out on scans)
HijackThis (if it's exceptionally bad or crucial that it be cleaned up and not just reloaded)
MCPR will knock out McAfee, NortonRemovalTool will get rid of Norton. They're both bad programs and cause massive numbers of problems if they get even slightly damaged or go out of date. They also can cause system instability even if not damaged and are frequently system resource hogs compared to other AV programs available.
TrendMicro isn't bad, but it's not as good as AVG, Avast! (which we use for older systems), and SpySweeper.
Yeah I'm really confused. Why is magiccards.info extremely ugly now, and there is no Advanced Search option anywhere?
Without that there is no reason whatsoever to use this previously amazing tool. Gatherer is (sadly since it's not very good) superior in every way, now...
EDIT: The advanced function was hidden fairly well, but I did find it. If only the user interface was back to par.
This is some stuff that Bristol did for me. The concept for the first two was "what if Meddling Mage was female?" I thought they turned out pretty awesome as proxies.
I will have (and do have) firearms to defend myself, and, in the event that they are necessary; whether due to changes in global economy, national government, or other currently unforeseen circumstances. The fact that the world has been approximately stable for the last hundred years does not mean it will be for the next hundred, or indeed the next twenty.
And as an addendum, I consider it a public service to legally and responsibly carry a concealed weapon.
Don't listen to the guy above me and his wall of text. Warhammer Fantasy is a fun and unique game, but so is Warhammer 40k. Warhammer Fantasy certainly doesn't have "more" strategy.
Go look around your area and find out who plays what. You want to have a good group of people to play with before you commit to any hobby of this type, as they will be expensive.
I would say Heroclix will be less expensive, but it's also a simpler game, and it's questionable as to whether or not it'll be around in five years. Whereas Warhammer 40k certainly will be.
As far as the painting goes, what you do is:
Assemble all your stuff.
Prime all your stuff.
Do two basic colors (the minimum for any serious play).
Slowly go back and repaint all your troops with more detail.
This way you can quickly jump into the game and start playing, but you will also eventually have very cool custom models. It's what a lot of people do because their painting ability increases over time, as does their knowledge of their armies, and then they decide to play something more custom (like creating their own Space Marine chapter, Tyranid brood, or Imperial Guard regiment).
As for the specific cost, it depends on your army. Most if not all of the core armies (Orks, Tyranid, Imperial Guard, Space Marines/Chaos Space Marines, Eldar) are going to be heavily in plastic, and therefore you can assemble a 1000 point army for around $150 with painting supplies. Over time, you can pick up the metal models that you need to really flesh out your army (heavy weapons, squad captains, special characters, and the like), and they will be between $7 and $20 depending on how many at a time (a pack of three Catachan Snipers for example are about $15).
The difference is that Warhammer "new stuff" does not come out like Heroclix, where you have to buy packs or whatever every X amount of time. Every few years GW releases a new edition and maybe revises codexes, and there are even new units and models introduced, but generally you can get by rather easily without spending new money except on your codex and minor modifications of your army.
Above all, though, make sure whatever you play, there is a local group or five to support it.
nJustice - Really nice work on that City. I agree that the brushwork is more noticeable on that one, but it seems like it would be hard to avoid. You could try using a large, round, really soft brush and lightly soften the strokes by brushing with the grain once the paint's nearly dry. But then again, it looks really good as is. Nice work
On a totally different note, does anyone else think the eBay super-art mods are starting to get really sloppy? I just haven't been impressed with the latest batches.
I should post the stuff you did for me, as it's absolutely awesome. Mind if I link the scans you did?
I've performed hundreds of trades in online trading organizations and through eBay. Would you like to talk out of your ass some more? You decided to harp on me when I expressed my concern about JayC and I think I remember how that turned out.
I'm responding to a concern of mine with legal facts and you're responding with a personal attack. Why? Do you consider 'whining' laying out a calm, intelligent, grounded argument?
And gee, if this is a U.S. based site then I would think it would operate under U.S. law, no? And what does U.S. law say? (Hint: I posted it above).
A fair argument - unlike some people in this thread (points to Poolshark) I will respond to such calmly and intelligently.
Hannes is Swiss, I was actually aware of that. However, as this is a .com site, it falls under United States jurisdiction as I would think (and please correct me if I'm wrong) the site is based in the United States (the servers, that is - that's the main question).
If not, then I am more than willing to admit my mistake, as the EU does in fact allow what you said. It could very well be based overseas. I know several people who own sites based in the U.S. that live in Europe, and vice versa as well. In that case, it is not a legal issue, but an ethical one, in the fact that it is still slimy to hold a person's information over their head to obtain their compliance. That still could be argued as extortion.
Yep. Pretty much all I can say is that I completely agree with everything you have posted.

Take these, and prosper.
I was the 6'7" guy that was the tallest at the PTQ who was covered in blue dust from my sleeves that everyone kept calling William Wallace.
I saw a ton of Faeries myself, which is why I was 3-3. Every loss I had was to Fairies.

tl;dr - The debate forum is leaking.

Yeah I actually found that out today, my bad for not keeping up.
Wizards should lighten up a little, the Shah is a time honored classic of pissing people off.
I should post the stuff you did for me, as it's absolutely awesome. Mind if I link the scans you did?
And, yunno, I read this thread everyday anyways.
Shahahrzad hasn't been banned in Legacy or Vintage since 2001.
Also, using Maze of Ith for vigilance is serious tech and I find it completely hilarious for some reason.
Yep. Pretty much all I can say is that I completely agree with everything you have posted.
