Not classic.


Also, audio triggers, second monitors, virtual machines, etc.
Yeah I was lucky to have a 19inch CRT. Won it in a Air Warrior tournament. Most people still had 13inch. Imagine having multiple CRTs on a desk? Be lucky if 2 fit.

I was talking about current day, how going through effort to stop overlays wouldn't stop use of a program like Gina.

Why is it good lord? When people start discriminating against classes for performing less or pushing people out because they are at 998 dps instead of a new 1000 dps minimum limit for raiding, does that not hinder fun?

I understand your fun comment. But that usually why play nice policies exist.
I can't reply to this without getting political.

Its not a real request to stop it, Tecmos. No use trying to figure out how to. This is a thought exercise in how introducing things like this can split a community that wouldn't be without it.

Some trolls here on the forums got me to thinking about how many advantages players have now compared to back then. Some of the trolls want to troll harder and suggest needing the CRT monitors (the really good ones are still nice) and using 56K dialup. Some things are not practical.

People have argued that because RogerWilco released in 1999 that voice chat should be allowed. Some have argued that even though it was out that it really wasn't all that usable. This is a thought exercise. People like crutches.

People have argued because some parsers that could check DPS (I never heard of one check loot logs etc.. i wonder if original developers ever commented on that) that later programs like GINA that display an overlay in real time are ok. Here we are saying its lame. Thought exercise.

Does it bother me in my game? Nope.
But I am aware other people are out there playing the same game with additional *useless* information. We are not playing the same game. Maybe you are getting a heads up about something whereas I am keeping a mental track of it subject to human failure.
