  1. the_antiroot has some strange hobbies :S

    Hee hee.... great screenie!! Reminds me of an X-ray pic that out of scruples I won't post... Keep it up, Anti
  2. Excuse to use #Abuse? [SOLVED]

    Officially speaking, is bag jumping (and sitting thereupon) a legitimate reason to use #Abuse? It seems to me to be similar to blocking doorways by impeding harvesting and muling.
  3. Test the newest client please

    It loads faster than the previous update for me, no problem there. The music and sound effects work, hooray!! A little buggy tho, the music stopped for me on first use of version after 1/2 hour. Settings had no effect. I'm using version for 2nd time now and it started without sounds. After toggling the settings the music has started, I'm waiting for rain....

    Don't be silly.... Dragons can't fly!
  5. I wanna kill someone for telling me this joke...

    What do you call a man with no arms and legs, hanging on a wall? Art
  6. A Shoutbox

    Sounds like it could be useful, maybe best not actually on the forum pages, but as a seperate window. With a few designated channels it might keep a little spam off the forums and off the channels in-game. As the forums are now, I enjoy the page loading speed on my dial up, and in-game I find it distracting to try and follow the channels while playing.
  7. The newbiest thing you ever saw

    My first act of newbism: After I made my very first pair of gloves, I harvested some sulphur a found a rostogol right away! So I tried it out, worked great! Then I found out how much it was worth.......
  8. Bob the Gob

    I still think we should use him for marketing purposes...... http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/index.p...8&hl=bobblehead
  9. heheheh

    Neato! A history lesson! I like the compass style. And the Christmas tree! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Not too keen on Squarebob Spongepants, tho....
  10. The impossible

    I'm afraid to sleep on that one, Beaver! Um, a gas lamp? she left the gas on? She gets depressed in the dark? Bug zapper? Meep? I know a butcher who stands 6 feet tall, has a 36 inch waist, 34 inch inseam, wears size Large T-shirts and has a glass eye. What does he weigh?
  11. The impossible

    As a good American, I would have to say the answer is 'insurance'! My old fave: As I was going to St. Ives I met a man with seven wives, Every wife had seven sacks, every sack had seven cats, Every cat had seven kits: kits, cats, sacks and wives, How many were going to St. Ives?
  12. HDRI

    Noooooo! Eeek!! My poor ol' computer will choke! I'll never find enough vacuum tubes!!
  13. Give me a click, please

    No can do. I'm a Yankee. According to our peerless leader, we are not allowed to participate in any wars. Unless he starts them.
  14. Markings on map

    No offense, but what started as a simple suggestion turned into a flamin' load of picky minutae! Smaller font size seems harmless and helpful, and maybe a darker font color for better readability. Then again, there's always graph paper, scotch tape, colored pencils, and an empty ceiling......
  15. why do people sit around forever?

    Thinking back, I remember wondering the same thing as a newbie. Thinking really hard right now, I realize I must be sitting cross-legged somewhere pointless on the Whitestone map picking nose..... Right from the beginning I saw a large group of people sitting around a veggie patch doing nothing and thinking of the Peanuts kids waiting for the Great Pumpkin on Halloween. Then I noticed while reading the game docs, that I was doing the same thing. I have a PC strategy 3D game called Empire Earth in which 'villagers' while harvesting, squat down and move their arms around blindly in front of them. When doing nothing, they stand still and jump up and down every so often. It's hilarious..... I thought about suggesting such movements in EL so it would look like players are actually doing something, and making it easy to tell if players are AFK or not. This would probably use up too much memory or bandwidth somewhere, so not useful. Besides, it's more relaxing doing nothing!
  16. The impossible

    If if looks like a duck, If it smells like a duck, If it woks like a duck, If it tastes like a duck, It must be a duck. Can Be?
  17. new armor

    Roja, you've done it again! They look great, helmets too. I'm sure it's too much to ask if the helmet 'mane' bobs up and down, and blows in the wind...... Probably an unpopular suggestion, but designing a helmet that obscures all hair, leaving only the face visible " " might work for a sleek look? Here's a link to a fantastic website of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC and their permanent Arms and Armor exhibit. great for zooming in on the real deal! Going here was an occasional birthday treat when I was a kid. Even built the plastic models of some of the suits of armor..... http://www.metmuseum.org/Works_of_Art/department.asp?dep=4 Click on 'Collection Highlights'. This may shed some light on time periods and styles. The extremely elaborate stuff here was made for emporers and kings, also tournaments and showing off, makes LOTR look like Halloween at WalMart. Some serious web surfing here.....
  18. The impossible

    Although unintentionally politically incorrect due to it's age, this one is clever: how long is a chinaman
  19. The impossible

    How much dirt is in a hole 3 rods wide, 16 hands long, and 1 fathom deep?
  20. Anthropologist

    "Penny for the Guy!" I didn't know that was Canadianic?
  21. Your perks

    Fast Regen is truly a happy thing! I did break down and get Power Hungry; it's sort of a RL issue..... "Any more scrambled eggs, Maw??"
  22. The EL Tourist....

    I thought I'd do a little sightseeing around Draia and send back some pictures. The problem is I lost the descriptions to my photos! Can anyone tell me where I am in this picture?
  23. What should REALLY be the American Pastime?

    Looks like soccer is gaining on the Cubs.... Come to think of it, Prune Festivals are gaining on the Cubs....
  24. The EL Tourist....

    Pegged 'em on the first click, Cayuga! Okay, got to make these harder............ I got a big-headed case of bravado in my travels and decided to join the army! Too bad they were all off in some foreign country fighting evil-doers to keep the homeland safe..... Anyway, I forgot where the recruiting station is.......
  25. I like the deli concept. Pizza parlor and Chinese take-out sounds good too.... How about a 'thrift shop' for low level items, sort of a Trik that sells as well as buys.
