Okay all the info I can give - Everyone it seems has disconnected (at least in Europe and America) Errors that occured report 7, 40 and 58. Originally logged in to no one having any guilds- no tags nothing. Second time guilds restored but warping to other places still not possible.

Il edit if anything major comes up

Why?

Epic \Ep"ic\, a. [L. epicus, Gr. ?, from ? a word, speech, tale, song; akin to L. vox voice: cf. F. ['e]pique. See Voice.]

Narrated in a grand style; pertaining to or designating a kind of narrative poem, usually called an heroic poem, in which real or fictitious events, usually the achievements of some hero, are narrated in an elevated style.
The epic poem treats of one great, complex action, in a grand style and with fullness of detail. --T. Arnold.

As for this, I thought my computer was freaking out or my router was dying. Was glad to find out it wasn't anything on my end.

Close my little prairie dawg.... but not close enough. It does start with a 'ch'... and does have sharp teeth and a nasty bite, but don't bother trying to keep up. That blur that just passed you with a resounding WHOOOOSH... is a Cheetah.

Here's the thing. I enjoy words... a lot. I especially enjoy expletives and modifiers... EGAD! YIKES! Zowie! Gadzooks! Suave (pronounced Swah-vay) and Tiptop are a few that immediately come to mind. And I enjoy other people's witticisms... such as yours... above. But I don't take them on as my own, and I don't use numerals in lieu of letters in words to prove I'm elite. To do so is actually following along like a sheep and far removed from the ultimate elitism which is individualism.

Epic is a great word but there is nothing clever or witty about trying to pawn it off as a synonym for awesome/bitchin/super-duper/etc. I'm not one to make assumptions or "educated" quesses, but if I were pressed to make an assessment of the person or persons who have tried to make it a synonym-du-jour for groovy/heavy/doozie, I feel confident in saying they either have an IQ that isn't quite in the triple digits (or maybe just there) or are just now learning to speak English as a second language.

The reality is that epic≠rad/gnarly/spiffy/etc or even Awesome Amish Furniture Maker. And there are a lot of better synonyms out there to choose from... Legendary. Aprocraphal. Aces. Top-drawer. Capital. Crackerjack. blah blah blah

Hey, don't you know it's hip to be square!


...of course, since that song is so out of date, my mentioning it instantly gives me a million-billion cool points.


...then my mentioning of my mentioning of the acquisition of my cool points makes me lose them all.



...but it's okay, cause cool points aren't cool anyway!

What's the longest word in the dictionary? Isn't that the longest raging war in the history of man kind? Pffffffffttt... The longest word in which dictionary?

Here... have fun... An Answer to the silly question, "What is the longest word in the dictionary" (Not my choice of words... it's the title of the page).

My personal favorite is probably the one that James Joyce coined: bababadalgharaghtakamminarronnkonnbronntonnerronnt uonnthunntrovarr hounawnskawntoohoohoordenenthurnuk

You're not too bad with words yourself. I like your nickname.

Btw, savvy (one of my all time favorites) is spelled with two 'v's. It's much lovelier with two 'v's... don't you think?

The word you wanted was exploded and this thread has gone way off topic so let's close it, shall we?
