    All of them.

    Every single one.

    it's been years since launch

    i would have figured they would have fixed that up, since it's a really common criticism and seems like it would be relatively easy to fix

    like, not make the faces look like a male version of that plastic surgery catwoman

    So I rolled up a worgen hunter last night and played through their opening area. It was pretty awesome.

    Plus you get a tophat.

    I have a werewolf that is currently wearing a tophat

    But I rolled a goblin last night and got to KILL CTHULHU. Actually the Worgen starting zone is pretty cool, probably a bit more fun than the goblin one with the exception of getting to ride around in your hot rod as a goblin.

    Worgen really makes me want to play WoW.

    Because I want a human druid. And worgen is the closest I'd ever get.

    I hate all races but humans. They are either ugly, disgusting, unsanitary, or ugly.
    Man, I'm usually the guy rolling human in a fantasy game, but WoW humans are ugly. Every time I went into a Caverns of Time instance I threw up a little in my mouth.

    2 gigs a day is way more than any game is going to do. Hell more than 90% of browsing+gaming will do. Really only downloading something would hit that point.

    That's what I thought. I figure either I have some sort of unknown process or it's on his family. This last week I have pulled 500 MB on a busy day. Otherwise, it's been even less than that.

    But how am I going to explain that to him? I couldn't even explain to one of my customers that her trouble downloading a PDF wasn't because it was 2 MBs. People believe the stupidest shit.

    Tell your roommate to lay off on the massive tranny porn torrents.

    The funny thing is I've taken that call before and done just as I said. Hell I had one where the person had called in 7 times previously and every rep would say they would take care of it. In about 2 minutes I was able to get a supe to approve the credit and I sent the person a screen shot of their new updated final bill, which showed a credit, as well as an apology. I swear fucking over the customer takes more effort then just fixing shit.

    Yeah, that's what I'm at right now. I was at the level below but there were some shitty digital cable promotion shenanigans that took two months to sort out, and now I've got that level for a year for free (well, just the upgrade is free--I pay what I would have been paying for the lower level). I've still never seen my download speed over 7.5 though (at different times throughout the day/week).

    Sometimes it is because their tenuous employment depends upon meeting unrealistically aggressive targets.

    My cable provider is actually sensible about bandwidth. Between 12PM and 12AM you get 2.5 gigs. If you go over that during that time, they bump you down to 2.5 megs until midnight, where you can use bandwidth all you want until 12PM again, where everything resets to zero and you have the limit again.
    see, this is what I'm talking about. That's pretty sweet.

    Yeah, this actually reflects the real-life problems of supplying a utility in limited supply. The same thing works when electricity and water utilities do it (but obviously they can't limit you so they just charge a lot more to lower usage at those times).

    It's funny how this problem has been solved forever in other areas, yet most ISPs claim that it's impossible to manage and they need to selectively prioritize the internet (in exchange for dollars from content providers, of course).

    Technically, bandwidth is not a finite resource. It merely has problems with infrastructure. Cable company infrastructure are getting ridiculously old and having an increased time keeping up with demand of today's online users.

    Instead of investing in new technology to stay somewhat competitive like they did back in the 90s with DSL, they're basically passing the buck to you in hopes that you're too stupid to realize you have alternatives.

    Technically power generation isn't finite either (at least it isn't right now). I think financial constraints are just as legitimate as other resource constraints. If the company buys less equipment, they can offer slower service for less money. That makes perfect sense. If they're offering slower service for more money, you pray you have a choice and you switch providers to one giving you a better deal.

    Of course different rules should apply in monopoly situations, like minimum service requirements or maximum price caps. But if under those constraints, service is still too bogged down for your liking, then it's a financially limited resource.

    there is something to be said for passing an imperfect thing rather than forestalling action.

    i mean, extension of the bush tax cuts sucks. i don't like it.

    but at the end of the day, obama's going to be judged on something getting done, and not what bad things he forestalled. 52 seats in the senate is not enough to stuff the republicans and pass the democratic wish-list. hell, 60 votes wasn't enough to do that.
