ROFLMAO! You guys sooooo crack me up . . .

Let's see now ... Alexander and I did the math on this one >D.

\/\/0\/\/ has +2 million players . . .

It costs 15 $ per month . . .

12 months per year . . .

12 months per year times 15 $ per player per month x 2 million players . . .

EQUALS a grand total of roughly THREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY BILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR! :eek: That is more than some companies make in their entire lifetimes ...

Oh, and that's not even including the up-front 50$ CD cost -_-

Do you fools REALLY think that Blizzard devotes more than 1 hour per month worrying about a server game connection that makes them absolutely 0 money, just incurs running costs? They may care about the top melee players, but that is pretty much where it ends, that and hacking ... they are rather territorial about hackers and alternate servers, eh? :p I don't see WC3 in shelves anymore, except for those cheap 'battle chests' and whatnot :p They keep the game relatively balanced and fix bugs (although the bug fixing is because it can lead to exploits and hacking --- see above /|\ /|\ /|\).

They will probably not release any more elemental heroes, because that story is continued in WoW, and it doesn't fit with the story here. They needed a new dungeon, so they used the old story that Ragnaros, alone of the elemental gods, was freed, and used him in a dungeon; battlenet additions of Ragnaros were probably just a considerate afterthought. They need room to grow in WoW, and don't want to release all of their content at once (wisely, in my opinion).

And if you raised a single hair in protest, they would ban you from Bnet permanently, LOL! ~~~

Ultimate kills a target unit instantly to give gold & exp. Heaing SPray isn't intended for in-battle use, for outside or standing behind the lines and firing it. Acid Bomb rocks the armor and is an insane disadvantage if used over and over.

His morph keeps him alive and gives him some tanking ability.

So what is healing spray intended for? Creeping? Not many other heroes have "non in-battle spells"..... Kinda lame if it does the same thing a shop does....acid bomb is the only thing i can give him credit for, but he starts with zero armor for gods sake and the morph is super short and is pretty much a cheap take off of berzerker strength....its garbag-o

Ummm...

$15/month/player * 12 months * 2 million players = 360 MILLION dollars

Little (well, quite large, actually) mathematical error there. :p

Not that I support WoW or anything like that though... :p

Don't really like reading posts do you?

"non in-battle spells"

Please point out the part of my post your quoting, since I didn't say that. I said not intended for in-battle use, for outside or standing behind the lines and firing it.

Ok, now ya got me here, since I have no idea what your talking about. Alchemist does the same thing a shop does? One of his abilities? And which shop?

And, if you ever actually played a game of melee, you'd realize you can HS behind your troops, run them back to heal, send them back in, rinse and repeat. Micro needed, yes, but any person with a brain that's not retarded and 99% common sense can micro.

Cheap Beserker? Last time I checked, Beserk Gave you 50% to attack speed while taking 50% more damage, and Chemical Rage gave 125% at level 3 while giving you a 50% move speed bonus AND more damage / armor.

Erm?

Cost x (Players x Months) = Total.

Cost x (24,000,000) = Total

360,000,000 = Total. Just did it with the calculator. Don't doubt my abilities, PUNK, I'm advanced in math :)

You = Wrong
Me = :cool:

That's right. That's 360 million. Count the commas. (Shadowy originally said 360 billion. I think, therefore, that the mistake was with him, not with you.)

Lmao, if your so good in math, then why are you arguing with SilverHawk with the same answer? :p

Don't mess with me PUNK. I'm a TEXAN, and we have GUNS! :shades:

I argue because I'm Alexander :cool: Conan, you should know from all the times I kick your butt in an argument that I'm damn good at it ;)

OOH, BURN! Do you need ointment?! Yeah, shut up, that's what I thought!

:D Rofl, good mood's are dangerous.

To the point of this current topic, not the price, but the Hero in question:

How the bloody hell is Berzerk and the Morph in any way, smell, shape, form, etc. alike?

Healing Spray is meant to be used strategically. With a brain. For this purpose, I never use this hero! :D

Acid Bomb = Ow.

His Ult? Well, that ='s this:

General chit-chat
Help Users
  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New dessert added to recipes Southern Pecan Praline Cake https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-southern-pecan-praline-cake.193555/
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
