What about Brinstar?

So we won't be seeing it suddenly tripling in damage output, then?

Is that even possible? We're probably as bad as Asura: Put two of us ina thread and you get two opinions. The only thing most of us agree on is that without resorting to gimmicks we're a little weak in PvE (like Asura agreeing that the Destroyers are a threat) and there are some holdouts even there.

But even if we could all agree, it might not be feasible to do for GW1. I'd just be happy if it's up to par for PvE in GW2 - doing so for GW1 PvE would make me ecstatic, but I'm not holding my breath.

Tacos are typical Mexican food, not Spanish.

And don't you dare mention that paella thing... not all Spain is like Valencia... /sigh

Welcome Regina!

I'm sure you'll do fine here, someone with your background has probably seen more kinds of nerdrage than we can provide you with here.

Salsa just means 'sauce' or 'gravy'. It's also a kind of music typical of some South-American and Caribbean countries. It's not a dish and you don't eat it. It could be drunk, but that would be too Homer-like.

Just quit it, it's faster.

No, maybe she's got all the minipets she wanted. Most of these are freebiees that came with magaziines or collectors editions. The rest could have been birthday presents, or simply holding them for others.

I believe what she means is that at the present she does'nt want to inundated with gifts but would rather get her feet under the desk and her seat warm first

For those who can't take subtle hints, if you read her inital post it paraphrases as.

"I am NOT Gaile, I won't ever BE Gaile, the only person who can be Gaile, is Gaile. I can't fill Gailes shoes because they are hers not mine.

I will do the best I can for you and for Anet, but I will be me, i'll say and do things like me and in my style and in my way."


You know what. Personally I would have it no other way. There is nothing like trying to be somone you are not and i'm looking forward to a fresh pair of eyes and approach. It is just what we needed.

You obviously haven't had salsa made in California... including mine. It's a condiment and you eat it. We make some salsas quite chunky and others are pureed. Some we can scoop up with chips and other we pour or spoon over meat, eggs, whatever we like spicy. And in the end, whether chunky or pureed... we always eat it.

Come to Texas, and we'll show you some salsa that you can sink your teeth into (and teach you how to make flames shoot out of, well, you know).

Because the best way to understand someone is being like them.
Most players are casual and like miniatures.

To properly relay comments, they don't just need to be like players.

They need to understand the game they represent. Most casual players don't. This isn't to say Regina doesn't, since I can't make any judgments without knowing them.

Everyone blatantly knows that Eviscerate on a N/W is the only elite you'll ever need.
