When did they ruin GuildCafe? I made a GuildCafe page a while ago, but when I went to my new guild’s site there to try to connect to it, I could not edit my The Lord of the Rings Online™: Shadows of Angmar™ status. Going in to edit my games only lets me see the first six, with no option to reach the rest, and I cannot even delete and re-add the game.

Why don’t we make a lousy version of MySpace, intentionally focus it on a limited audience, then change the name and bork the tools so it is even less useful?

I shouldn’t blog after midnight.

Lazy Fellowship

Posted by Zubon on July 6, 2008 in Lord of the Rings Online. 4 Comments

Frodo, Aragorn, and the rest have been standing around Rivendell for a year. No big hurry on that Ring thing, eh? Boromir is the only one who seems to be impatient with the waiting. The test server notes mention that your next epic side quest will be to help the fellowship get ready to head to Moria. Maybe we can get more hides for blankets and feathers to fluff their pillows. There are no farms within two zones, and Elrond must running low on that magic bread. I bet they will still be standing around Rivendell when the servers shut down.

Some people.

Maybe it’s just me, but this Wizard101 looks to be a fun game. While you are there, sign up for the beta.
