Game Forum / Role Playing Games / Diablo / September 2008The D3 announced has drawn me back for some D2
Been a long time since I've read this group, even longer since I've posted. I Played D2 from release to summer 2001 with some of the then regulars of this group, I mostly played my Ice 'Ress Magelet (or was it 2 tt's on the end, eh no biggie, that account is LONG expired). I also played D1 and some of it's mods before D2 as well, Abysmal was my favorite one of those, That was mostly played on the character MartianMageling. I remember playing with Demigodess, Mr Hanky, Zilth, Ear of PK Soup, SilverRaven, hc2000, Paladin, Subspace, Mousehill, Otarin, the new Zealand guy umm forget the name now I go to post amongst others and in differing amounts of time (or even games). Ken Noone, there's another poster's name anyways from back then. Maliarsha, there's another name. I suppose I could dig out an archicve of Agent newreader from the time and get more. So I'll be popping around some on D2 and will check back here as well if any of you want to catch up on old times... I have noticed that Rares are a bit more common nowdays....

And a very short note from me, I haven't touched Diablo in ages bus came across the thread by mere chance. Perhaps the itching becomes too strong again with a new version of Diablo coming out so we'll meet again on the battlefields.

A lot of the old AGD crowd ended up there, AG Turner, Marshall, Orion, Tae, Elly, Art Dent from AGD2, Jade, etc., Justus is alive and well and living in WoW ;-) ald "Knowledge is Power" VK`Sister`ald level 47 Rogue (HF V&K) (RIP :-( ) Matriarch Sis-West level 82 Bowazon (US West) Champion RingsNThngs level 61 Bowazon (US West) Slayer ZannEsu-ald level 51 Sorceress (US West) Matriarch Sis-AR level 99 Bowazon (Ancestral Recall Mod) Champion Creepy-AR Level 91 Necromancer (AR) Slayer Zan-AR Level 79 Sorceress (AR) Slayer SisEight-AR Level 78 Bowazon (AR) Gems-AR Level 55 Barbarian (AR) Matriarch Sis-otSEye Level 78 Bowazon (US West, co-op) BtaSisEight-ald Level 50 Bowazon (LoD 1.10 SP) Aragorn-AR Level 51 Zealadin (AR) Champion LTwoSis-ald Level 79 Bowazon (US West Ladder) CotSRSig #16 Somewhere on teh intarweb "ald" typed: >>> Been a long time since I've read this group, even longer since I've >>> posted.

The *only* reason I started playing it was because the computer I had at the time (since replaced, except for the hard drive which is in the new computer) wouldn't connect to BNet, so it was either play WoW of don't play with my friends. This computer has no problems with BNet (despite accessing it from the same hard drive, I *still* have no idea what the old one's problem was), and I do have a few very low-level characters I play when the WoW realms are down for maintenance. ald "Knowledge is Power" VK`Sister`ald level 47 Rogue (HF V&K) (RIP :-( ) Matriarch Sis-West level 82 Bowazon (US West) Champion RingsNThngs level 61 Bowazon (US West) Slayer ZannEsu-ald level 51 Sorceress (US West) Matriarch Sis-AR level 99 Bowazon (Ancestral Recall Mod) Champion Creepy-AR Level 91 Necromancer (AR) Slayer Zan-AR Level 79 Sorceress (AR) Slayer SisEight-AR Level 78 Bowazon (AR) Gems-AR Level 55 Barbarian (AR) Matriarch Sis-otSEye Level 78 Bowazon (US West, co-op) BtaSisEight-ald Level 50 Bowazon (LoD 1.10 SP) Aragorn-AR Level 51 Zealadin (AR) Champion LTwoSis-ald Level 79 Bowazon (US West Ladder) CotSRSig #16 Somewhere on teh intarweb "ald" typed: >> Come back ald, all is forgiven! >> [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > Lol, you can believe that I'll be playing D3 when it comes out :-) Excellent!

That's odd about the PC. By same HDD do you mean that you left the same Windows (?) install on and just swapped the drive into the new PC or did you re-install Windows? Cheers, SignatureShaun.

Heh, I actually got a Ladder Paladin into Act 2/Normal this morning, that's relatively *fast* for me ;-) >> As >> far as whether that means I'll give up that other game, well, that [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > >Cheers, New Windows version came with the new PC, but I didn't touch the install on the old HD, which was added to the new PC. I actually got the HD from the oldest PC added, too, although there were no problems with that one before (other than running out of room on it), there are currently no problems with it, other than an odd program or two that don't like the new version of Windows. ald "Knowledge is Power" VK`Sister`ald level 47 Rogue (HF V&K) (RIP :-( ) Matriarch Sis-West level 82 Bowazon (US West) Champion RingsNThngs level 61 Bowazon (US West) Slayer ZannEsu-ald level 51 Sorceress (US West) Matriarch Sis-AR level 99 Bowazon (Ancestral Recall Mod) Champion Creepy-AR Level 91 Necromancer (AR) Slayer Zan-AR Level 79 Sorceress (AR) Slayer SisEight-AR Level 78 Bowazon (AR) Gems-AR Level 55 Barbarian (AR) Matriarch Sis-otSEye Level 78 Bowazon (US West, co-op) BtaSisEight-ald Level 50 Bowazon (LoD 1.10 SP) Aragorn-AR Level 51 Zealadin (AR) Champion LTwoSis-ald Level 79 Bowazon (US West Ladder) CotSRSig #16 Somewhere on teh intarweb "ald" typed: >> Somewhere on teh intarweb "ald" typed: > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > Heh, I actually got a Ladder Paladin into Act 2/Normal this morning, > that's relatively *fast* for me ;-) Woohoo!!! <g> >>> As >>> far as whether that means I'll give up that other game, well, that [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > currently no problems with it, other than an odd program or two that > don't like the new version of Windows. Ahh, ok, got it now. That makes sense as some programmes won't run unless the entries that were written when the programme was installed are in the Windows registry. There's a chance that the proggies that you say don't like the new Windows version would actually run if they were re-installed and the registry entries written to the operating version of Window's registry. <phew> Cheers, SignatureShaun.

Considering that I was using Windows 95 when I got it, it might not be a bad idea to get an updated version anyway, no? ;-) ald "Knowledge is Power" VK`Sister`ald level 47 Rogue (HF V&K) (RIP :-( ) Matriarch Sis-West level 82 Bowazon (US West) Champion RingsNThngs level 61 Bowazon (US West) Slayer ZannEsu-ald level 51 Sorceress (US West) Matriarch Sis-AR level 99 Bowazon (Ancestral Recall Mod) Champion Creepy-AR Level 91 Necromancer (AR) Slayer Zan-AR Level 79 Sorceress (AR) Slayer SisEight-AR Level 78 Bowazon (AR) Gems-AR Level 55 Barbarian (AR) Matriarch Sis-otSEye Level 78 Bowazon (US West, co-op) BtaSisEight-ald Level 50 Bowazon (LoD 1.10 SP) Aragorn-AR Level 51 Zealadin (AR) Champion LTwoSis-ald Level 79 Bowazon (US West Ladder) CotSRSig #16 Somewhere on teh intarweb "ald" typed: >> Somewhere on teh intarweb "ald" typed: >>> [quoted text clipped - 45 lines] > Considering that I was using Windows 95 when I got it, it might not be > a bad idea to get an updated version anyway, no? ;-) Heh! Indeed. Although I'm yet to find a simple, light-weight up-to-date replacement for the email client I use, Calypso. (It's abondonware.) Everything is so damn bloated these days. Ok, I'm running a dual-core CPU @ 3.6GHz with 4GB RAM and 1.6TB of HDDs but that doesn't mean that every programme has to suck more than it's share just because it's there right?

Alpine? ;) Regards, Patrick. Somewhere on teh intarweb "Patrick Vervoorn" typed: > [mega-snip] > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Alpine? ;) LOL, I'm not really up to the challenge of building it. I like Calypso as I have it checking 7 different email accounts, keeping all data from each in it's own 'mailbox' folder on my HDD (which I've migrated from one machine to another for ~9 years now). I guess I'll keep using Calypso in conjunction with SpamPal... Cheers, SignatureShaun. DISCLAIMER: If you find a posting or message from me offensive, inappropriate, or disruptive, please ignore it.

If it works, why change it? I'm using POPPeeper to check all my email-accounts, but use Alpine to reply to them when needed. Regards, Patrick.
