Black Orc Guide

I thought I'd quickly post this before I finish work today.

I found this really great post on http://warhammeronlineleveling.blogspot.com and I'm quite impressed!

But this is the post which has all the info about being a Black Orc and the best abilities and stuff.

Well worth a read!

WAR Dropout

I've been adding other blogs to the blogroll, and I have been using some of them from The Greenskin website, since that place is trusted and a top place to be!

I was about to add one called Bloghammer, until I read this recent post!

This is similar to how I felt about trying WAR, but now that I've started playing it, I'm more hooked on this than I was with WoW!

Ok I'm not the best player in WoW, as mentioned in a previous post, but I've found the game is repetative when compared to WAR. I've leveled 3 characters to 70... I am losing or have completely lost the motivation to pay the funds for WoW only to be in a similar situation as I am now.

WAR is new, Mythic have a lot to live up to with Blizzards huge game having such a massive impact. But Blizzard aren't delivering for me. One of my favourite battlegrounds was Alterac Valley. It was only a few months ago that Blizzard decided to move the Horde starting place back to balance it out... only 3 years to do that!!! That is extremely slack! At least Mythic are releasing fixes fast, and they offer a game that I've been looking for.

I'll go back to the WAR dropout...

He played WoW longer than me... 4 years is a long time to throw away on another game. I will almost definately not be doing the same.

The Chaos Within Website

I've had some thoughts on this, and they are good thoughts. http://the-chaos-within.webs.com/ also has it's own email incase anyone wishes to leave feedback privately about a member of The Chaos Within, the website itself, or any suggestions to put up onto the website or guild info in-game.

On the website is a photo gallery, and I'm not 100% sure how much space we have to store images and stuff. The Chaos Within email will be like an archive of images, each character will have their own folder, and images will be emailed to this account and when an admin is available, they can upload these images to the photo gallery on the website.

The Chaos Within email address is... the-chaos-within @ live.co .uk (spaced out to avoid email bots)

This will (hopefully) be in the guild info in-game and on the website, should it all be approved.

Are there any other guild bloggers? Or bloggers on Karak-Norn that wish to add me to their blogroll to help me get some more traffic?

Hacked Off!

I'm pretty pissed off now... I had a huge post that I've been adding to all day. For some reason... probably blogger devs are retarded, I had two of the same post in my 'edit posts' page. Well I deleted one without checking it... there should be some form of backup...

basically it's all gone... I'll have to do it monday now... cause I can't be arsed with rushing it in now and risking the same thing happening again when I come back to publishing it.

Long story cut short, Thwomp is rank 12, got his first blue item, got some decent tome entries, and other screenies... oh well...

Monday I'll hopefully publish this post...

Layouts, Templates, Skins

I've spent a little bit of time looking at custom layouts for Blogger blogs. Some caught my eye more than others, but to find a Warhammer one... is like 'looking for chicken's teeth'... it just doesn't exist!

There must be someone out there... some boffin, who can bash together a few images, gadgets, etc like they have done for MySpace and other profile websites and make a Warhammer one...

Warhammer has been out for... well, longer than I have lived... something like 25 years or so, MySpace has been around for 10 years at most? But people (as stated above) are bashing out layouts of Grannies, Cars, Pets, Babes, Hunks, Dinosaurs, etc. Basically you can search for anything... however, when searching for 'Blogger' layouts, Google pretty much laughs at the word 'Warhammer'...

Now I'm not changing my search engine from Google, simply by the things it isn't showing me, since all search engines would do the same afaik.

On a new note in this post, that would be the first time I have ever used the acronym afaik (as far as I know). It took me months to work it out with people saying it on WoW. I didn't want to sound like a complete noob (and that I'm not in with the crowd) and ask what it meant.

Anyway, this is just another 'Frustration' I'm currently riddled with, off now to look at YouTube items to add... or maybe possibly if unsuccessful with that... a new site to unleash my thoughts and tell the tale of Thwomp... after all, it was Thwomp that helped me into this blogging malarky

Frustration!

Right! That's it then! I'm not the brightest spark there is, but come on... how the hell do you make a damn slideshow on this blog?!

I've spent well over an hour trying to get one to bloody work... photobucket, picasa, it's all a pile of bull to be honest...

From what can be seen now, is a slideshow (yet to be renamed due to deletion's approach soon) sat on the side with 'feed could not be loaded'...

Well pull your finger out of your arse and load it!!! I made the stupid mistake of trying to load from photobucket, in the end the popup for adding a slideshow had some sort of script error and crashed... 'do I wish to continue'... well what the hell do you think... obviously I look like I have all the time in the world to sit watching paint dry...

This blog idea... where/who did I get it from? *flashbacks* somewhere I was reading about leveling slowly in Warhammer so I could enjoy it more 'create a blog' was one of the things they said... well I would if the bloody thing would work the way I want it to!!!

For now... I'm more than annoyed... so I'll just post a new rank from time to time. Here's Thwomp finishing his first quest in Dark Elf lands (Blighted Isle?) and got a ding
