(sorry for my english)
i have never touched an apple product.Sooooooo can i have one iPad,iPod or an iPhone5 please.please pleeeease.that will be the best gift i will ever get in my life.please don't ignore me please.
I would love the opportunity to win the IPad. I've never had been lucky enough to own a computer or laptop and this iPhone I have is the closet thing I have to any Internet access. Having a iPad would allow me to do so much more when it comes to my therapy assignments and just overall convenience of life. Thanks for giving us this generous giveaway. God bless.
I would love an iphone 5 for taking photos of my family and friends. Using to compress 4 binders into one phone. I feel it would help me organize my life almost completely. My daughter would love to be able to watch some movies when we are on the road. Ahhh...a peaceful ride home would be real nice. Also I am a graphic designer so I'm constantly on the phone checking email but right now I have a lg phone I really don't like with no internet or video and pretty bad camera. There is no way I can afford an iphone 5 now so winning one would be a wish come true. Thank you for your consideration.
It has always been hard to get technology at our house. But I would really like an Ipad. This wouldn't be just for personal use. I really would like to use this toward my brother's and my education. This would be something that would be a good tool for my brother to use and enhance his learning skills.
Iphone please as im an overseas rep and i dont see me friends and family for a whole year at times so having an iphone would able me to whatsap them all the time. I will be so greaful jasmine x
I would like an iPod Touch 5th generation because I never had any of the apple products!!

I would like an Iphone 4 because kids make fun of me because I have a bad phone:((All the best.
Me thinks an iPhone 5 will suffice for we are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of the dream.
To me an iPhone means family. My mom lives overseas and so does my handicapped sister, who can't have kids, she has Down's. I have an 8 year old daughter. I share my daughter's placement with my ex-husband, for whom I moved here to USA and who after our daughter was born left me. I can't move back, because the court system here will never let me take my daughter and I will not move without her. It's hard already to watch my mom and sister age from afar especially after my dad passing last fall... I am not complaining. I work ft and study pt and make two ends meet, but it's hard. My old iPhone 3GS just broke yesterday and all my Skype conversations, texts and some pictures went with it... I can't afford a new phone :( A new, reliable device would not bring me my family here, but it would bring it somewhat closer - especially my daughter to mom - her only grandchild that she has not seen in 3 years. Thank you. JD
i would like either device.. cause i cant afford one an i could use one badly .thanks
I wanted iphone because its my dream to have one someday :( If i have this one it will be happiest day ever in my life...and ill never forget it

I've been wanting a iPhone 5. I've been getting hand me downs of someone's used phones and never a new one. I would like to have a new iPhone 5. I would be so happy if I could win one.
I would be more than happy to have any of those but if given a chance to just choose one and have that all for free then I guess I would rather have the apple ipad with retina display. Cause I am in a mall last week and Ive been looking around in a cyberzone site when I found this apple ipad on a display on one of its store it really strike me with its feature, but In my case who doesn't have money to bare with all I can do is just watch it from afar, and hoping that someday in the near future I would have that.
I would like an i phone 5, because I can't afford it. All of my friends have it and they don't deserve it because they have bad grades.I'm not making this up, but i am the best student in my class. Merry christmas, hanukkah and all festivals to everyone. I think I deserve an I phone 5.
You would make me the happiest person in the world.

Jay Rayburn recently visited Central Kentucky and found a story I wrote about old restaurants. Here's his comment:
"Last night my wife found the story you wrote about a year ago on old restaurants in Lexington. What a treat to read it! We lived in Lexington during the 70s and 80s and have eaten at almost all of them. We were especially fond of The Bistro. Sandy and my wife taught together at Lafayette High School. She and Lou hosted a special dinner for us and some of the teachers just before we were married. I was a regular at Saratoga (one of those professors) and you are right–what a bunch of characters. Ted Mims was a friend, too. One night one of those "characters" had had entirely too much to drink. As he was heading to his car, he stumbled. Just then he noticed a police car sitting there watching the people who came out of the restaurant. Instead of getting into his car, he went around the corner, crossed the street and went into Domino's Pizza where he ordered a large pizza with everything. He told the manager to deliver it and him to his address!
Roger's was also a favorite. I can't remember the name of the man who owned it, but he was a professor in the dental school. His son worked in the pro shop in Spring Lake Country Club where I was president. And who didn't go to Hall's!
Thank you for the great trip down memory lane. We were in Lexington last week for a function at the Governor's Mansion and spent lots of time just driving around and looking for some of these places."
Here's the story that ran March 30, 2008
A restaurant manager runs off with the register receipts; another restaurant's namesake gets arrested; feather boas and polyester suits catch on fire (a bad bananas Foster incident); and a notorious rogue cop gets shot on the steps of an upscale restaurant.
A few legendary stories came to mind when we found a box of old Lexington restaurant menus, but they also brought back fond memories of special occasions at places like The Saratoga, Executive House, and The Coach House.
The old menus — some still in their leatherlike covers, others discolored by age — were located after a request from cookbook author Regina Charboneau of Natchez, Miss., who came to Lexington earlier this month as part of a book tour. She is collecting old and new menus for the Southern Food and Beverage Museum (www.southernfood.org).
"I think menus are a great way to archive food history. Restaurant menus really tell a story and give a time line for the popularity of ingredients and trends," Charboneau said.
Museum curator Elizabeth Pearce agreed.
"Menus are by their nature ephemeral, as restaurants change them daily or seasonally, printing them on material not meant to last," she said. "People rarely save menus, unless they are marking a particularly important, celebratory meal. This is unfortunate as menus are often the only physical remains of a restaurant's past."
We decided to take a trip down memory lane and ask a few readers about their favorite restaurants of the past. If this sparks a recollection, we'd like to hear from you, too. We plan to write an occasional series about Lexington restaurants. E-mail your story to firstname.lastname@example.com.
"Hearing the name of a restaurant can have the same effect as a song you hear for the first time in ages. It transports you back in time to a really memorable day or moment, and the details come flooding back for just a few seconds," said Gayle Deaton of Beattyville.
The Bistro in Chevy Chase
"Restaurants have always been an integral part of the horse scene and wannabes. That's where the entertainment is," Donna Potter said.
Potter who owns Catering by Donna, once was a partner in a downtown restaurant called Capers. While attending the University of Kentucky, Potter worked at many of Lexington's hot spots in the '70s, including the Bistro at 829 Euclid Avenue in Chevy Chase.
"That was an entertaining place to work," she said. "There was a lot of money flying around in town in entertainment. People were spending. It wasn't unusual for me to get $500 in tips a night, and sometimes more, during Keeneland. When the high rollers in the horse business would have a big win — or anyone who had won a lot — they'd be throwing money."
The little French bistro was the place to see and be seen for about eight years, until owners Sandy Fields and Louis Cease parted ways.
David Larson, who owned The Pampered Chef around the corner on South Ashland Avenue, (it was formerly The In-Between) recalls the Bistro's glory days. "When I pass by that location today, I laugh and think two things: If only those walls could talk, and if you could somehow harness all the energy expended in that building during those years, you could light Lexington for decades," he said.
When Cease left, Fields kept the Bistro and hired Georgia Feeney, who had worked at the Bungalow and Le Café Chantant, 137 West Vine Street. Cease went on to open La Brasserie at 210 West Main Street in the old Rick's Place. In November 1988, Cease opened C'est Si Bon at East Main Street and South Ashland. which has housed many restaurants including The Stirrup Cup, Le Café Français and Furlongs.
After Fields closed the Bistro, she joined a la lucie owner Lucie Slone in a new venture, The Rosebud, in the former site of The Bungalow, 121 North Mill Street.
The Bungalow
The Bungalow was where downtown movers and shakers ate lunch and dinner, and it had a lively bar crowd. "The food was fabulous when John Ferguson and Joe Woosley were there," Potter said. Her first bartending job was at The Bungalow. "I made a killing there, but I never knew what I had."
Ferguson went on to open Fleur de lys at 216 East Main Street in the old Plaza Café location in February 1987. It was destroyed by fire a few months later, and he moved into the old Gabby's Gourmet Grille spot at 127 South Upper Street.
At that same time, French-born Alain Rochelemagne opened Acajou at 265 North Limestone, a building renovated by Tim Mellin and his brother James. When Rochelemagne left Acajou in 1990, he opened Le Café Français Restaurant and Piano Bar at 535 East Main Street. Tim Mellin, Lynda Hoff and Dale Holland turned Acajou site into Atomic Café in 1992, serving a Caribbean menu.
Rogers Restaurant
Rogers Restaurant, founded in 1923, was Lexington's oldest eatery when it closed in July 2004. The first time Deaton went to Rogers Restaurant was in the '60's; she was 17 or 18 and coming home from the Sweet 16 tournament in Louisville with a friend, a recent UK grad who "was practically drooling by the time we got there," she said.
Deaton had fond memories of being on a double-date at The Cork & Cleaver, 2750 Richmond Road, (now Columbia's) after attending UK football games in the '70s.
"There was a fire in the fireplace near our table, and we had really great steaks, with candlelight to eat them by, and their famous mud pie for dessert. The restaurant was romantic and beautiful and a perfect place to end an autumn Saturday," she said.
The Little Inn
The Little Inn, 1144 Winchester Road, opened in 1930 as a Prohibition-era roadhouse just outside Lexington's city limits. It was considered the first restaurant between Lexington and the mountains.
In January, 1989, The Little Inn moved uptown to Chevy Chase to the former site of the Bistro, which had closed in fall 1988. It was a popular spot until August 1989, when a sign was hung on the door that read: Closed for vacation. It never reopened. In January, 1990, the original Winchester Road building was razed.
"It was a very special time, date, to go to The Little Inn on a Friday night for one of their delicious steaks," Mary Jane Davis of Winchester said. "The first time I went, I was dressed to the nines and remember thinking or praying I would use the right utensils. It was crowded and noisy and, yes, dark."
The Little Inn was known for its prime rib (a large painting of a prime rib was on one side of the building) — as well as baby-beef liver, frog legs and lamb fries.
The Saratoga
The Saratoga, 856 East High Street, was a Chevy Chase landmark and best known for its characters: bookies, college professors, socialites and city hall types.
Totsie Rose opened it in 1953 and named it after the famous Saratoga Race Track in New York. Ted Mims owned it from 1977 to 1989. He bought it from Ed Whitlock, who had bought it from Rose. Rob Ramsey and Joe Reilly, co-owners of Ramsey's Diner, owned it for a short time.
A Toga menu, served from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. Monday through Saturday, featured Mrs. McKinney's snappy beer cheese ($2.95), fried bologna ($2.50), cold meatloaf on white ($4.95) and fried egg sandwich ($2.50). The hot plate special for a Derby weekend was chicken and dumplings for $6.95.
Festival Market
In the late 1980s, Lexington's restaurant landscape really began to change.
When Lexington Festival Market opened with a flourish in 1986, it brought Jay's Seafood, Charlie & Barney's (now Sawyer's), and Scores Sports & Stakes Restaurant & Bar. Scores, on the top floor of Festival Market, was owned by David L. Gayheart and Richard M. Noonan. Menu items included Joe B's trout, filets à la Roy Kidd, Sutton's steak, and steak Claiborne.
In February 1986, former Mayor Jim Amato and friends opened an upscale Italian restaurant at 535 West Second Street, in the renovated West Jefferson Place. The menu featured Italian dishes prepared from recipes collected by Amato and his kitchen manager, Mary Parlanti. Amato's was sold to Tracy Farmer in 1988; two years later, Amato's moved from Second Street to Chevy Chase Plaza, and in 1992 it was bought by Geraldo Favaro, who closed the doors in 1993.
Stanley Demos' Coach House
Demos opened the four-star restaurant in 1969 at 855 South Broadway, and sold it to his daughter, Tootsie Nelson, when he retired to Sarasota, Fla., in 1989. In 1992, Demos' daughter Tootsie Nelson and her husband Sam sold it to John and Marsha DuPuy. The Nelsons and master chef Tony Seta had opened Tootsie & Tony's Restaurant and Bar in Hartland Shopping Center in September, 1991.
Tootsie & Tony's specialties were wood-grilled pizzas, steaks and salmon cooked in a brick oven imported from France. They introduced Lexington to potato rags, thinly grated fried potatoes covered with ranch dressing, cheese, bacon and green onions.
1880 Restaurant
In 1989, Mesut Sakar, who was maitre d' at Stanley Demos' Coach House for nine years, opened 1880 Restaurant & Bar at 270 South Limestone. In 1991, Sakar was featured on Bluegrass Crime Stoppers for bilking Lexington banks out of several thousands of dollars.
Allman's and Hall's on the River
Johnny Allman opened his first restaurant in the late '30s on the Kentucky River, and it was there that he used his cousin Joe Allman's recipes and created a home for beer cheese and fried banana peppers.
The restaurant flooded many times and burned down twice — or maybe three times.
It was Johnny Allman who started a tradition that the Hall family inherited. George and Gertrude Hall started Hall's on the River in 1965. Hall's on the River has seen thousands of regular folks drop by as well as former Govs. Martha Layne Collins and John Y. Brown Jr.; Hollywood legends Lily Tomlin. Lee Majors and Raymond Burr; and members of the British royal family.
The Halls' son, Steve bought the business from his family in 1981 and in 1983 opened Hall's on Main at North Ashland Avenue and East Main Street in Lexington, where Furlongs is now.
The early chains
As Lexington continued to grow, chain restaurants began to take over the suburbs. In the early '70s, Lexington was a test market for chain restaurants, and some of the first on the scene were Ireland's, Steak 'n Ale, Mississippi River Co., T.W. Lee's, and W.W. Cousins.

I have always found Risotto to be the most sensuous of foods; smooth, creamy and luxurious. It can be flavored for any taste: cheese, seafood, vegetable even sweet vanilla or chocolate. Stirring it and watching it as it changes from individual grains of rice to one thick, fragrant pudding-like dish is watching magic happen before one's very eyes.
A truly quintessentially Italian dish, risotto was traditionally a poor man`s food, a first course, "il primo", filling up tummies before the more expensive and thus scarcer meat course. Yet now it is served up as such a luxurious, rich, romantic meal in itself, gorgeous snow-white rice all dressed up with deep red Speck or chunks of lobster or shavings of truffle served with a bottle of excellent wine. Or a simple, rustic family dinner studded with inexpensive seasonal vegetables or dusted in freshly grated Parmesan.
I mastered Risotto after several years living in Italy, learning from the best of the best; technique and recipes from Anna Del Conte`s fabulous cookbook I Risotti, the love, care and special Italian touch that goes into and transforms a list of ingredients into the perfect Risotto from our neighbor in Italy, Nonna Anna.
And how often do I make Risotto, whether Saffron or Parmesan, mushroom in winter or Risi e Bisi (Rice and Kisses) with fresh, delicate, sweet summer peas? So often and so beautifully that I have been dubbed (or crowned?) the Risotto Queen.
Zorra of Kochtopf has proposed a Lemon Day, a gathering of all of our favorite lemon recipes. And what timing! Little does she know, but Lemon Risotto is our family favorite. Beautiful in the winter, smooth and warming reminding us of sunnier days, perfect in summer, that tangy lemon flavor tickling the tastebuds, oh so clean and bright, accompanied simply by a cool, crisp salad dressed in a tart vinaigrette.
Zorra, here is a fabulous Lemon Recipe for you!
From Anna Del Conte's Italian Kitchen I RISOTTI
Serves 4 – 6 as a first course or side dish or 4 as a main dish served with a mixed green salad tossed with a Balsamic vinegar and olive oil vinaigrette.
2 pints (1.25 litres) light chicken or vegetable stock, homemade if possible, or if not…. I use 2 broth cubes
2 oz/4 Tbs (60 g) unsalted butter
1 Tbs olive oil
2 shallots, finely chopped
1 branch celery, finely chopped
10 oz (300 g) rice for risotto (arborio or carnaroli)
½ unwaxed, untreated lemon
5 or 6 fresh sage leaves or 1 tsp dried sage
Leaves from a small sprig of fresh rosemary or 1 tsp dried rosemary
1 egg yolk
4 Tbs freshly grated Parmesan
4 Tbs heavy or light cream
Freshly ground black pepper
Bring the stock to a boil and remove from heat. Some recipes say to leave it on a low simmer during the preparation of the risotto, but I never do.
Heat half of the butter and the olive oil in a large skillet, pot or terra cotta risotto dish. Add the chopped shallots and celery – what the Italians call the soffritto - and gently cook for a few minutes until translucent and soft.
Add the rice and stir to coat all of the rice well with the butter/oil. Cook, stirring, for a couple of minutes until the rice is translucent.
Pour a ladleful of the hot broth or stock over the rice, stir and allow to gently boil until the liquid is almost completely absorbed by the rice.
Continue to add the broth, ladleful by ladleful, or two at the most, over the course of the cooking period, stirring constantly, allowing each addition of broth to be almost completely absorbed by the rice before adding more liquid.
Meanwhile, grate the zest from the half a lemon and mix it into the finely chopped fresh sage and rosemary or with the dried herbs. Mix this into the rice halfway (about 10 – 12 minutes into the cooking.
Continue until the rice is meltingly tender to the bite and the risotto is thick and creamy. This should take more or less 20 minutes. Do not worry if you do not need all of the broth. Or if you do not have enough broth then add water at the end.
Squeeze the juice from the half lemon. In a small bowl, combine and whisk together the egg yolk, the grated Parmesan, the cream, the lemon juice and a generous grinding of black pepper.
When the risotto is cooked and the rice is very tender, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the egg, cream and Parmesan mixture along with the remaining butter. Cover the pan and allow to rest off the heat for 2 minutes before giving the risotto an energetic stir until well combined. Serve at once.
I usually serve this Risotto al Limone simply with a large, tossed salad dressed with a clean, tangy vinaigrette made with Balsamic vinegar and a good quality extra-virgin Italian olive oil. Add a loaf of fresh bread and maybe a plate of Italian cheeses or cold cuts and it is the perfect meal. Especially wonderful in the summer for some reason, maybe the tanginess and beautiful lemon flavor.

My first experience with risotto was 2 years ago on a southern caribbean cruise. Maybe it wasn't prepared correctly, but I just couldn't get the feel for it. Things is, you won't find a bigger rice lover out there.

Some people don't know how to say no, and while it can be considered a bad thing, Rachel Sheridan embraces it.
"The word 'no' is not in my vocabulary," she said with a laugh when confronted with the long list of clubs and charities she's involved with. "It's just how I was raised."
Sheridan, a 31-year-old Summerville native, divides her time between nine different organizations.
Professionally, she works full time as the regional director at AllCare Living Services, Inc., all while running her own business, KenChelle Photography.
But if two jobs aren't enough, Sheridan also serves as the president of the Summerville Evening Rotary Club and the Kappa Alpha Theta Charleston Lowcountry Alumnae Chapter, the community service chair of the Junior Service League, the auction chair for Children in Crisis, and works on the Dancing with the ARK Stars committee, organizes events for the Alzheimer's Association, and serves the Girl Scouts locally as a travel volunteer.
While that list would make some peoples' heads spin, Sheridan doesn't think anything of it.
"I've always been really involved with community service. It's nothing new," she said.
Sheridan's community service experience goes way back; she was a "candy striper" hospital volunteer in high school and attended Wofford College on community service scholarships.
For her, it all has to do with helping people.
"I'm very willing to put others before myself."
Sheridan has planned on dedicating her life to helping others since childhood, when she aspired to grow up and become a vet. In college, she changed her mind and majored in psychology. She's been working with AllCare, a provider of in-home care services, since 2008.
She said that while the helping element of the job wasn't what initially attracted her to the company, it's what's made her stay.
"I've always known I want to do something with helping others. I love helping the families through the difficult times, so they know they're not alone, she said.
"On multiple levels, we've [the employees] all had something make a connection for us."
For Sheridan, that connection dates back to 2007, when her fiancé Brandon Thompson died fighting the fire at the Sofa Super Store in Charleston. The accident happened just four months before their wedding was scheduled.
Glimpses of Sheridan's love for Thompson can be seen throughout her life, particularly in her running and her photography business.
"The last Christmas present I ever got from Brandon was a professional camera," she said. She named her business after their relationship, blending his and her middle name to create "KenChelle."
When she has a spare moment, Sheridan is out running, a pastime she also attributes to Thompson.
"Running is a way to have peace," she said. "It's a way to reflect, and a way to continue honoring not just Brandon, but all of the firefighters who died."
This November Sheridan will run the ING New York City Marathon for the Leary Firefighters Foundation, just one way she is "paying it forward" to the firefighting community.
But as much as she loves to travel, Sheridan enjoys staying in the Lowcountry and giving back at home.
"There's such a need everywhere, but there's as much of a need here as there is anywhere else."

RRS James Clark Ross Research Ship Webcam
The webcam on the RRS James Clark Ross is situated on the Bridge, Port side, and is looking forward. The Radio Officer will usually add a small blurb containing information about where the ship is and what it is doing. This is a particularly interesting webcam as, when not on long sea passages, the scenery changes regularly. Spectacular sunrises/sunsets, stunning Antarctic vistas and the occasional Southern Ocean storm can all be seen from this camera! The update period is every fifteen minutes, with one image being archived every hour. For the most recent, full size image, click here.

A Kiawah Island resident shot his wife to death, then killed himself because he was concerned about her quality of life if he died from his medical condition, according to the Charleston County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies were dispatched to 78 Forestay Court shortly after 7 a.m. Wednesday after a 911 call concerning a murder-suicide, Maj. Jim Brady said.
They entered through the unlocked front door and found the husband and wife lying in separate beds next to each other, according to the incident report.
Each had a single gunshot wound to the head. A revolver was lying on the man's chest.
The Charleston County Coroner's Office has not released their names.

For better or for worse we dont have those things for now but i still see the negative feedback affecting the company as a posibility unlike u that seems to completely rule it out.Of course anyone can have whatever opnion they want just saying u should be at least open to the possiblity even if it is pretty unlikely.

I make games for a living, and even my job isn't as fun as D3 was.
I'm pretty sure I didn't spend 40hrs a week since release so maybe my numbers are off, but I know my main had like 100-120 hours, and I also had two other 60s and a mid-50 character.

Between Bioware's Tortanic schmorgisborg and Blizzard's ultra fail with D3, i assure you that these companies won't be making any big sales like they did before.
These games were the straw that broke the camels back for many gamers. Too many of which gave WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too much credit to these companies just for being who they are.
Constant comments like, "its bioware, how bad can it be", and other stupid things like that. Basically blizzard and bioware have been cashing in on the namesake that was built by the original employees of these companies 10-15 years ago who have all long since left the company or were fired because they weren't interested in taking every opportunity to "monetize the product" and actually cared about making quality games that people would enjoy and not fleecing their customers for every cent they could before the customers realized they were being fleeced.
I think a lot of people have finally pulled the wool from their eyes.
I personally only bought D3 because i have an old gaming buddy who due to his personal and professional life has very little gaming time anymore, and he was excited about the game. So i figured, why not, 60 bucks so i can game with my friend again. Even though i had made a vow not to give that wretched company any more of my money. Now of course, he realizes it was a crock of shit, even though i tried to warn him.
So, from here on out, i assure you blizzard won't receive another penny of my money, and bioware i've had it in for since Mass Effect 2. Though i wasnt as enamored by ME1 as everyone else seemed to be. (its actually funny, if you get a chance go load up SWTOR and play through the first couple hours, then do the same thing with ME1, you'll have a heart attack from laughing at how ungodly similar the stories and play/areas are).

The content in D3 was more varied than nearly every MMORPG I've played, up until Act 1 inferno at least. Varied mobs; varied character capabilities. There was a lot of variety. I certainly wish modern MMORPGs would have that kind of gameplay variety. It'd make them much more enjoyable. Even TSW, which I'm enjoying, comes nowhere close to the amount of mob variety D3 had, and it's the most mob-varied MMO to come around in years!

I'd feel very confident saying that if D3 did not have an RMAH, it would have been a much better game.

I'm neither young nor short-sighted, which is why I don't have a knee-jerk reaction to a feature which had a near-zero impact on my gameplay.
Literally the only impact it had was extremely indirect: dev hours spent on RMAH that would've been spent elsewhere.
If someone follows the precedent with a similar zero-impact implementation where it's (a) not pay2win PVP, (b) completely optional and (c) I'm not reliant on pay2win PVE groupmates to advance, then that wouldn't influence my decision to play that game in the slightest, because the RMAH wouldn't impact the game in the slightest.
If someone follows the precendent with a worse implementation which does impact gameplay or isn't completely optional, I simply won't play that game.
Because I don't have a knee-jerk reaction to a harmless feature, but I do react to developers compromising their gameplay with pay2win elements. I react to true threats to game integrity, not imagined ones.

Well what I was describing was simply good combat design and really has nothing to do with raiding or small-group content (apart from said content being good combat design in the better MMORPGs.)
We absolutely DO need to have tough challenges. No challenge means there's no game! (But every player should of course have the option of fighting the challenge which is right for them, and be rewarded accordingly.)
If you want a no-rules, no-challenge, no-RPG entertainment experience, you're going to find it in something like Second Life. An experience which isn't a game.
There seems to be a much stronger player interest in games with game patterns to unravel than open sandbox experiences like Second Life.

Well I guess I'm just looking at the bigger picture.
Here we have the most popular gaming company implementing a P2W RMAH into their RPG. If you are buying gear to complete inferno it is by definition P2W. What happens when the PVP enters the game? how is this not a threat to game integrity?
Guess I'm just behind the times. Games to me, be it board games, video games, D&D were always about just having fun. It didnt matter how much money you had to blow, We left that for the casino.
If Blizz consider's it successful, I'd put money on them introducing it into WoW and Titan. Once its accepted by the consumer's the other gaming companies will follow suit.
Nah I see this type of thing as a threat to the integrity of gaming period, even if it dosnt effect me personally. It's just a downhill slope.

Games to me have always just been about fun. That's why I can enjoy D3 (without RMAHing). [mod edit]

Just to inform you, off topic but Grim Dawn is being developed by the makers of Titans Quest.
Its not out yet but it is looking pretty good. PoE is alright, its very very level/item based game and at the momment could use a big animation overhaul for the game to feel more fluid.

I don't know about you guys but they have multiple law suites in other coutries because of Diablo 3. I really don't think its making them a profit at the momment.
I wouldn't be able to find a source but I am pretty sure its also the fastest returned game in history.

They will just keep trying to tweek it till they find a way to make it work. They got a little too greedy this time. They will tone it down to the point where they see the kinds of revenues they feel are acceptable via the RMAH.
We have to see how many people pay for the xpac for D3, as well.
They don't seem to have any creative genius there any more, so it's just going to be about tuning the machine to maximize revenue from whoever their target market is.

D3 was fun for a short amount of time and why it lost it's sparkle had nothing to do with the RMAH and all to do with a boring game. Different strokes for different folks and all that jazz.
peace out.

I don't know what is considered a challenge for you but increased numbers is not a challenge for me. There is no real challenge in Diablo 3.
Getting 1 shotted off screen by monsters is not a challenge its dumb. The game is a 100% gear check and is not what the genre or the series of the game stands for.
Also to note that there are people now playing the game to find out the statistics of how bad the item roles are in the game. At current someone bought 3000 ilvl63 items and out of all of them only had 4 or 5 items that were worth much. More than half were complete crap, stuff like + gold pick up range, lowered level req etc.
Some were a step above it but the stats on them were worse than stuff you get in Act 2 normal. He got a total of maybe 200 items that could be sold on the AH.
You can keep having fun playing the game fine, but you should know especially from designing games that it is hugely flawed and terribly designed.
There is no risk vrs reward. There is no feeling of accomplishment from playing the game, there is nothing to intice people to play the game. Its actually scary that you as a supposive game programer can't see this, btw what company do you work for because I really don't want to play any game your working on.

I'm sure I'm echoing the sentiments of what has already been posted in here, at least I hope I am...
The game sold tremendously well and Blizzard is surely doing pretty good with their cuts from the RMAH transactions. Negative feedback doesn't mean shit to them if they're selling 6,300,000 copies in the opening week at ~$60USD per box.
The dollar bills would be earplugs to any feedback that they'd ever recieve because if you're pulling those kind of figures, it's unlikely you want to hear anything else.

In October, 36 accidents out of the 65 reported to the Jones County Sheriff's Department were dear-related. Thirty-four total accidents were reported in September and 15 of those involved deer.
Those statistics indicate that, for the past two months, almost 50 percent of the reported motor vehicle accidents were deer-related, and the peak season for accidents has another month to go. October added another animal-related accident when a woman hit an animal on Greene Settlement Road on the 19th that turned out to be a bobcat.
This month started with more of the same. An ambulance struck a deer Nov. 1 on Highway 22 and out of 14 accidents reported over the weekend, nine of those were deer-related.
Statistics compiled by Jones County Sheriff's Department clerk Debbie Douglas show the most vulnerable time for motorists to come in contact with deer is from dusk to daylight. Out of the 36 accidents in October, 17 took place from 1-8 a.m. and 16 from 4 p.m. to midnight.
