Been a while since I last posted here. Been busy on work and/or forgetting to put a line or two on this blog. And I did promised that I'll put something here about Perfect World...
Anyway, I've been playing Perfect World alright; but not in a regular basis. My leveling phase is pretty slow since I prioritize work. Well, it's not just that; but I'll tackle that later.
Back to Perfect World - I said that I'll be a Wingkin when this game comes up. I did - after I stopped leveling my lvl 15 Yaojing (Beast). I thought of being a semi-nuker semi-support character since I thought that Yulings (Wing, Cleric) also has a good potential of being an offensive character. So far, I'm enjoying the life of a solo-leveler, and I haven't bought any pots yet. But most likely, I'll be buying some since sitting down after I ran out of SP cuts my leveling time. I've been planning out the skills as well, since I wish to max out the skills that will be most used as a support & offensive build. Pretty much hard work, but I want to make this build work...
Ok, about work... well, let's just say it got pretty much complicated ever since an officemate showed "interest" over me. And I'm still surprised at how he shows his "interest"; really surprised. I know he's almost there, but I'm still stopping myself. Many reasons. It would've been nice, though...
Durn... I still need to level my character... and that Feather outfit for PW... I wish I can get the color I need...

Problem again?
Usual day for me answering emails; yes, I'm here in the office working in the weekend night. It was ok so far; I just got revenge over my two loses in DOTA - I just got a 'Godlike' kill in the end of the round (evil laugh), and we were just playing a game in preparation for the new game releases.
I guess the real question here is - what's up with the title (lol)?
Anyway... there's this guy over at our office that was probably in vacation leave for two days. Never got word why he was out though; and it's not like I go snooping over him. I just got to talk to him a little over today. And it took me about 10 minutes before I could decide to talk to him. Nice, eh? <_<
I guess the main reason of this is because I felt this guy is hiding something from me. I'm having a hunch of what it is, but I don't want to say this is really it. And it's not like I'm a master at this kind of thing...
Well, I got over that little chat. But it was just a simple greeting and all that. Just hoping that when he gets back to the office he'd talk to me a little more…-_-;;

Sentiments of a Board Lurker
Yes, I am your so-called "lurker" in a community board - just looking around, checking what topic I could participate in, but most of the time just reading whatever interesting posts comes around.
I've been to some international boards; one of them would be ragnainfo.net. http://www.ragnainfo.net/forums/index.php
They're quite strict regarding posts - they don't allow duplicate threads, and if such is seen, the new thread will be merged with the older one. Although, I'm not sure how they sanction the board members who do spam.
In our local boards; unfortunately, I have seen the worst yet moderating of a community board http://ragnaboards.levelupgames.ph/index.php?.
Yes, LU, it's your very own Philippine Ragnarok Online Board. Compared to her sister/brother games RF and PW, Ragnaboards is a very big mess. I wish your Mods had checked the pRB lately; I've seen a couple of "Top 10" threads, and on the Ninja section, there's got to be 5 or 6 threads that can be merged in only 1 thread.
My biggest sentiment here is - you have some of the famous Mods and all that, and when exactly do they show up to clean the boards? Yes, I clearly know they have life outside the boards, but can they be a bit "strict" with the rules? Maybe, give sanctions to spammers? And a hell lot are creating flamebait threads, and they escape the Mod's eyes. It's a real shame, unfortunately... and I thought Waukeen was hiring new Mods... I wonder where they are.. *sigh*

Posts, posts, and more posts!
This afternoon, I went to Pacific Star to claim the much awaited CBT CDs for Perfect World. Unfortunately, the only CBT CDs available are for Silk Road. Yay. -_- It wasn't much of a surprise though, since I had a thought not to go there in the first place and check the blog first before heading out to Buendia; but hell no, I went straight there...
Anyway, I visited the Perfect World Community, and as always there's a lot of duplicate threads. That's not the first time I've seen that. But I have to be thankful that the board mods are active in closing these duplicate threads. Not all forums are lucky...
In pRO Ragnaboards, it's hell worse. If you've been on the Ninja thread, you'll see those threads asking for the same topic and/or subject over and over - and ironically, they can get their answer on only 1 thread. Unfortunately, pRB mods are not active. So duplicate threads such as those are not locked immediately. That also goes for spam threads.
I once tried myself for the Mod application. But until now, no reply. I guess I'm not qualified as a Mod (for them). Anyway, I guess I can only act as an eye on the boards... just that...

Typical day at the office
At the time I'm typing these things, I'm trying to get my head together, as I am all-hell-sleepy. Our shift has just finished, and somehow I'm recalling that this is Saturday morning - after the Saturday 6PM shift is over, I'm in my day-off... again...
Yes, my life is quite fast-paced these days. Just this Monday, I was remorsing at the fact that we don't have internet, and that Perfect World CB has started without me. Erk, forgot to mention before - I actually won on the blog contest by Waukeen X3. So, hopefully in the future this blog will be filled with PW stuff. And I finally decided to go Cleric/Priest... hybrid that is, the way I always played.
Anyway, a while ago I also PMed Tom Valor about my fanfic. He's a resident fanfic writer on fanfiction.net, and he was one of the few who read and commented on my work. Hopefully, I'll get a response later this afternoon.
Whew... and in a few more hours... another round or two of DOTA with my colleagues... whee... @_@

Perfect World (Part 2) - My Dream Race (lol)
The above screenshot is a sample of the Race I wish to take when I play Perfect World - Wings. A lot of MMORPGs have characters that are able to use wing accessories, but only for fashion purposes. Now, this is probably the first on Phil. MMO that really use their wings to fly. Not only that, but the character customization tops up any MMOs. From head to toe you can customize your character; if you already tried playing The Sims 2, then you'll have an idea of how to customize your characters in Perfect World. Aside from that, the clothing can be customized to your liking, and you can even learn how to make this, including the creation of weapons and armor thru the crafting schools. This feature somehow reminds me of Fairyland and Runequest; the mechanics most likely similar to these games.
For the Wings race, you can choose between the Archer type and Cleric type. In any MMO's the Archer uses a bow and arrow, while the Cleric usually is the support type character. I've been a melee and semi-support character for a while, so it's a pretty tough choice what to pick between the two types. But whatever job I choose, I'll more likely be supporting my team/clan on the battlefield, backing them up whenever needed.
... still, Archer or Cleric... hmm......

Perfect World - A New Adventure
A few days ago, I was browsing over LU!s sites and I unexpectedly bumped into this site - Perfect World http://www.levelupgames.ph/perfectworld/.
The game originated in China, hence, the storyline of this game also came from this country. This can be considered the counterpart of Ragnarok Online, but the whole gameplay experience is raised to a new level. The game promises a wide array of customization possibilities, 3 races with two job types on each race, a battle system that may rival WoW's/DOTA's battle system, 5,000 quests waiting to be discovered, and a whole lot more. Overall, this is a whole new adventure in one game.
More story soon...
