Though I never want to go back to it, WoW had some* Good things about it..
And One of those thing is the Grouping system or, The amount of players that use it.
I was playing LotRO today, Trying to get Glinath to 50, And I had 20+ Group quests. I got a Group for NONE of them!
In WoW If I need to get a quest, I'd Just ask once and I'd Get a Group for it.
So, That is it..

Monster Play, Why Fairness is In the Eye of the Beholder.
Anyone who know what Monster Play is knows that you play as a Level 50 Orc, Uruk, Warg or Spider and Fight level 40-50 Freeps (Players that play Elfs,Dwarfs,Hobbits and Humans)
What people complain about is The "Fairness" of it.
The Freeps say that The Monsters have too much bonuses , They get no Debuff if they die, and Don't have to Work to get gear, or to level up.
The Creeps (Monster players) say that the Freeps can solo a Creep one on one, And have More Abilities hit points and defense, and They can Shoot Lasers Out of there eyes.. ok that last one Was not true..
But, the Truth is that Turbine is trying to keep it balanced as possible, Sure, I get angry I hate getting killed fight after fight after fight by Freeps but, Then again when we take them down, They get a Major Debuff! (I also believe that they get less Points for it... >.>)
Stop Complaining about it! Grow up! If you keep whining the Game will turn out like WoW's PvP did..

Warhammer (NOT THE MMO!)
So, While my Father was in Iraq my mom had gotten me a Warhammer Box set thing. I made some models and Painted a Few, then my Father came back. We moved, and I kinda stopped doing it..
My cousins from Alaska came over and the oldest cousin and I were talking and I showed him some of the Miniatures I had Painted.. then we went to games workshop and He watched his Dad play a Game, then we played a Game at my House. after he left I began Painting them again, and Now, I think I'll really start doing it.
BTW my Army is the Bretonnians.
GO KNIGHTS!

Mini-Review: Lord of the Rings Online - Monster Play
Sorry For lack of updates, my birthday came around and I have been busy..
But..
Mini-Review:
I made a Monster since I like healing, I chose the "Defiler" you get into the game you'll get some simple* quests (*I found that look are deceiving) The Quests Are to "Kill Slugs", "Go to Point A then Come back", "Get hobbit legs"..
What they don't tell you is the marsh where the Slugs are, is the Freeps (A Free Person i.e. Players) favorite camping ground, You'll get ganked,and ganked, and ganked.
The Run to Point A quests Are tough because you'll run into Freeps along the way.. and Die.
Asides from that, Monster play is good, As Long as you don't come into it thinking "oh, I'll start at level 1 then work my way up to 60 and Gank level 4 hobbits LOLz I am 1337"(One Day I'll Prove that WoW Is a mental illness..)
The PvP (Or PvMP) is Great, and It makes All the time I spent running around the Shire with Pies and Mail seem worth it, after I kill a Village of Hobbits.
One thing I HATE, Is the small children who play the game, WHY? Why do you let Your 10 year old kid Play, with a MIC? I was in a Raid and We had a Reeaaalllyy bad Raid Leader, Guess who it was, A Kid, He was talking and Talking and his little voice over the speakers made my ears Bleed..
But.. Fun, Annoying and slightly Therapeutic
I give Monster Play

AoKO: The Plague and Atlantis,
June, 17, 2011
"Woe, woe is the World!" Cried a homeless beggar in the streets of new york."Mommie, why is the man saying that?" Asked a young boy to his mother.
Erin sighed, as she thought of a way to tell her son that the homeless man was drunk and said,
"He thinks that the world is wrong.. now get on to the train Mecha.."
Erin did not like New York but, she had gotten a job with the smithsonian so she couldn't say no. Erin's son had to come with her,
Because his father was long gone.
When Erin got into the office she saw her boss, and a Strange looking man who had an
odd blue object in his hand.
"Ah," said Erin's boss, Duncan "Here She is!"
"Morning Duncan, Who is this?" Erin asked.
"I am Rem.' said the man, with a rather strange accent.
"Rem here found a most interesting thing, and wants you to come with him to
find it" Said Duncan
"What is this Interesting thing?" Erin asked.
"Atlantis.." said Rem with deep seriousness in his voice.
May,1, 2012
"Rem, Hurry up!" yelled Erin. They were almost there. after almost a year, they had
made it!
"I have long waited" said Rem smiling.
As the two made it over the cliff, they gasped.
The rest of the group (Nine archaeologists and one Egyptologist) slow walked up
the path and When they reached the top, they stood awestruck.
"Atlantis.." Rem said smiling.
It was more amazing then Erin had ever imagined. A huge city with massive walls,
huge skyscrapers and frozen waterfalls.
Suddenly the Sra glowed.
The 'Sra' was the name of the object that Rem had when he had first met Erin, Rem
Believed it was a Map.
But, now The Sra began to shake violently, suddenly a Blue pulse rang though the
city. The ice melted instantly.
May, 5, 2012
"*cough*cough* how are you Mechha?" Erin spoke into a web cam.
"I'm good mom.." Mechha said.
Erin had wanted to stay in contact with Mechha while she was looking for
Atlantis.
"So you really did find it?" said Mechha excited.
"Yes! We found so much, yesterday we found this!" Erin moved the webcam to a
old tablet, On it there was a sene depicting a pile of sculls and a Child sitting on
top crying.
Erin then went into a coughing fit. She was weak, it was painful to stand but, Erin
could not let Mechha or Rem know, they worried to much. It was just a Bad cold.
Then, She happened to into her hands, there was blood, allot of it.
May,19, 2012.
General Mark Howard looked at the sheet of paper in front of him.
"Every one of them?" He asked.
An elderly man nodded.
"Have you contained it?" Mark asked.
"Yes New York is sealed off, and as far as the world knows a terrorist blew it up."
Replied the man
"Good, You may go." Mark said
After the man left, Mark looked at the paper, all of them died of that horrible
cough.
Mark coughed
They found Mark's Body the next day a massage had been written in blood.
Woe, woe is the world.

Review: Dreamlords 1-15ish
Well, Because I don't want to sound the Wizard 101 Beta Police, I'll talk about Dreamlords
Initial Thoughts:
Well, I got into the Game the a Day or Two After release and, It was rather easy to understand. You don't have to Pay to Play but, Things Called "Tribute" which gives up items for your "Dreamlord"
Your Dreamlord is mainly a Hero type thing, He (or She) is you Avatar who can cast spells, and is Very powerful..
I chose the Nihilim
Into the game:
So you get into the game and You find yourself in a Field in the middle of nowhere..
Then You find a little girl,She tells you to follow her, then You have to destroy "Nightmares" and then you follow her to a Village where you meet her "Father". He tells you to defend the village from "Nightmares" you do that and the mission ends..
Save the City!
Once you finish the mission your enter "Patria" Which is a large map of the world, you get a quest to save your "City",You walk over and you enter an instance Area, and have to fight some critters..
After that you are given control of the city..
Patria
After you gain control of the city you can Do One of two thing..
1. Grind on mobs for hours on end to get followers
or
2. Work on you Patria Manger which, You need to Kill monsters to get Followers to do anything, but, The Patria Manger is very good, You can set it up to research things and build building..
Combat
The Combat in the Game is OK. not the "RTS" you'd think of, instead you are given some troops a you kill the monster with them, No Building,No real "RTS"..
I give it a...
2 out of 5...

Review: Dungeon Runners 1 - 8
Ok, so I was listening to a few Podcasts and Many of them were saying how much they liked Dungeon Runners so, I decided to check it out...
Initial Thoughts:
You create an account and you download the game, The download doesn't take too long and then you can log in.
You have a Choice to play for Free,Pay 5 a month or, You can go out and Get "The Box" which gives you a "Bing Gnome"
When you log in to create a character it looks like you can only create one character. After you create a character it gives you another character slot. If you create Your second, It gives you one more slot then, No more.
After you create your character you arrive in "Dew Vally" you'll find A good deal of quests but, be sure to read the quest all the way though because you'll laugh a ton!
Dew Vally Forest:
After getting a few quest done you'll be sent into the forest. For the most part you'll be blasting wolfs,Rat-things and little else. Gear drops allot,However, You don't see it most of the time Due to the fact that it is nearly impossible to find. Any loot that drop falls to the ground under the grass and other things. When you do find the loot you'll enjoy the "Cardboard Great Sword of the Beaver" and other such things..
One thing that bothers me about the game is the fact that the Dungeons are all Instanced so much of the game play is Solo.
Leaving Dew Vally
Allot of the quests you get a Grind fests but, some of them are fun*
At about level 4 or 5 you will get a quest to kill "Rattle-Tooth" It's a Rather tough fight but, It can be done, then You can Head out to the next town.
Townston & And More Slaughter:
Townston is the next town you go to, It is a Rather Large town and has your class trainers. One of the best things about Dungeon Runners is the customization, you aren't bound by your class spells, you can Practically make your own Class with mix matching the spells.
You'll get 20+ Quests to go into the dungeon near by and you get to fight more stuff..
At this Point you'll see allot more ADs when you die you have to watch one (You die allot) and at the top of the sceen..
Final Thoughts:
Dungeon runners is Funny,Witty and better than most (F2P) MMOs. Although the Ads and many "Members only" stuff does get in the way.
