Official AoC Forums
It seems a new issue has turned up with some players since the latest patch. Some players are finding themselves unable to ride their mammoth mounts. If you are having this problem you can gather a little information from this thread as Funcom Senior Community Manager, Glen "Famine" Swan has dropped in to post on the issue.
Update 31st July - Discussion Thread
The recent July 31st update was well received by some, but not so much by others. In other words it was a typical update. You can read and discuss the changes in this thread to voice your thoughts or concerns. Some of the more controversial changes involve the invulnerability gem adjustments and the new bind on equip/bind on acquire mechanics. Do you feel this is a good change for balance and economy or bad idea. Let us know here.

Ten Ton Hammer has added new massive PvP guides.
Grouping - hardest classes to find?
What is the hardest class for you to find when forming a group? That is the subject of this thread. Tell us what gives you the most trouble in finding. In many MMORPGs the hardest class to find is often a healer, but in Hyboria (and this thread) it seems the hardest to find class is actually the tanks. Personally as a guardian I don't get recruited often enough when I am looking for group.
Funcom seems to have forgotten there are PVE shards
This thread offers up some good point about the changes Funcom has been focusing on in a lot of recent and upcoming changes. There are many good points and feedback within the thread once you read past the trolls, and flaming folk who seem to mistakenly believe this game was made for only PvP or only PvE. I say flamers because that is pretty much all they are doing as they obviously never followed the games development as they try to flame with that uneducated point. Put on your flame retardant underoos and tell us what you think.
This thread was created by a necromancer considering taking up the art of demonology. This led to a lot of good discussion about the two classes, so if you have been leaning one way or the other between these two classes as a main or alt you may want to check this thread out and ask some questions of your own.

Weekly Funny With The Tuk
(The Weekly Funny is not reflective of the views of Ten Ton Hammer. The are however of mine. =p )
Everybody enjoys a good trick every now and then. The real method to showing off a good lighter trick is to make sure you haven't saturated your hand with lighter fluid before lighting it. Nuff said, just have a look.
