Hey, I'm not a ten year old!!!!! :mad2:








Just kidding. Well, I'm 30, but the implication was a joke.

Anyway, ten year olds may be better at PvP than I am, but I'm better at PvE than any ten year old. :)
 
mints,

PvP and PvE? <confused> now *i* feel old because i have absolutely no idea what you just said. <giggle>
 
Hear Again,

Can you play with computer games? If your answer is yes but you can't see the picture when you play with computer games? Is there special for blind to play computer games?

PvP = Player versus Player
PvE = Player versus Environment

I neither enjoy beating people up, nor do I enjoy being beat up, so whatever the outcome, I've never enjoyed PvP :)

LOL!

Actually, I can honestly say I've never lost a duel .. but I almost never accept them in the first place. I've killed a level 1 when I was 40, a level 70 Druid last year when I was 60, and one other I can't remember, but I think that's all.
 
liebling,

yes -- there are online computer games that are specifically designed for the blind, but i don't play them. i'm more of a person who likes to surf the internet and read online journals and newspapers instead. i know. i'm boring. <giggle>

you can learn more about computer games for the blind by reading the following links:

I rarely duel as I'm not a big fan of dueling. I do remember one rogue lost to me like 10 times in a duel. For the record, warlocks die easy to rogues, so this guy clearly sucked at pvp. I remember dueling a resto shaman and he never ran out of mana. It took him 20 mintues but he finally beat me.

I prefer battlegrounds. I've not been able to play warcraft since I went to the hositial for chest pains and i don't think I'll be able to play again till the end of this month.

I haven't tried Arenas yet but it looks interesting.

LOL! They pretty much are what they sound like. "Resto" is short for restoration, which basically means they're able to heal. And "mana" is the power source most players use to cast spells.

Ha ha. They're classes.. in a role playing game or a massive multi-player online role playing game or as they're called for short MMPORG. It's like an online verision of D&D and you play a character in that game. Some of your charters might be a warrior who's able to master tons of weapons and defenses. Warlocks get to throw fear and curses at their enemies. Rogues on the other hand sneak around and ambush or backstab people. Paladins are able to fight like a warrior but they also have healing ablities.

Restro is short for Restoration and it refers to one of the 3 talent trees that each charater have. Shaman have 3 trees which is enchantment, restoration and elemental.. Warlocks have Afflication, Demonology and Destruction. My lock is afflication right now but she was in the past a demo one.

I hope you undertand this a little better.

thanks for the explanation! yes, i do understand a little better now, but i'm shocked at how involved some of these games are. no wonder my nephew loves WoW so much!

WoW puts atari games to shame. <giggle>

:hmm: I wasn't using game language. I was trying to use common every-day real life language to define "resto" and "mana" :scratch:

Wow, I'm glad I didn't roll "instructor!" A few days ago, I was trying to choose a degree to take this semester. I was unable to decide between drafting and teaching, so I decided to roll a D6. If I rolled above a 3, I would take drafting. If I rolled below a 4, I would take teaching. I rolled a 4, so now I'm registered and accepted into the drafting program, fortunately for my prospective students! :giggle:
