Level UP!: Funcom for always answering what we ask.

TenTonHamster has launched a Premium Community for Webkinz. If your children (or you?) are collecting and hanging out in Webkinz land this is the community for you.

Not only did Funcom comment on the Livegamer.com issue yesterday, but Erling Ellingsen, Product Manager was kind enough to clarify their position for us.

"The arrangement with Livegamer is intended for our upcoming casual MMO. We don't have any current plans to bring it into Anarchy Online, The Secret World, or Age of Conan, and since we know this sort of thing can inspire passionate debate, we would obviously listen to our players before considering bringing it to our existing lineup." - Erling Ellingsen, Product Manager - Funcom

Thanks again to Funcom and to Erling for always being there when we ask them for assistance.

I've had a great time lately coming up with comic ideas for Lumio to put to virtual paper. Sometimes the ideas just flow to the point that I can't get to sleep until I jump up and write down what I'm thinking about. Expect some new comics soon. You can thank Bill and Lumio (Jonathan). They are the brains behind the content. I just throw ideas around.

After years of playing Horde in WoW my wife convinced me that it was time we tried Alliance. So far, so good. It's refreshing not to know every quest off by heart and the new leveling for dummies system is making it effortless rise through the levels. As is my norm I have yet to join a guild and since I fired up a hunter that may not be an option anyway. Is there a class in the game with a worse reputation for attracting idiots than the hunter class?

At its core the hunter is relatively easy to play, but to play it well you really need to know your stuff, a detail that seems to be missed by many who choose the class as their own. This is compounded by the fact that Night Elves, the miscreant's class of choice are one of only two choices for the prospective hunter. It's almost as if the devs sat down and said, "Our goal is to funnel every reprobate into one class. Let's get anyone with a shallow gene pool, let's call it a gene puddle to play one class. Hunter it is!"

I know what you're thinking, I'm proof of the gene puddle theory. Ha! I play a Dwarf, but only because I prefer the "Bang, Bang, Bang!" of the gun to the whimsical 'plink' of a bow. That and I get to ride a ram instead of a cat. I'm not a cat person.

So, Horde or Alliance and why? Get to the forums and spill the beans.

Do you feel the need to contact me? Your wish is my command. E-mail or Forums - The choice is yours!
