Wow... My mom has run out of gas in her car like four times in the past two years. You'd think she would learn.

lol yad think wouldnt ya but apparently she hasnt learned. maybe you should infrom her that the E means EMPTY not ENERGIZED... but then again that is also the reason i always have to look at my mom, sister, and girlfriends car whenever it makes a strange noise cause they have no idea what it means.
o on that note some idoit ran into my girlfriends car in the parking lot. didnt hurt the car much just gouged scratches into the bumper, nothing serious. apparently the girl thought she was in reverse but was actually in drive? how do you mess that up? i mean come on netural seperates R and D... then again it was a girl... (no offense to you girls on the forums, but where i live girls are not very bright...)

I am Re-Financing this coming Monday...all my bills and car note under the mortgage...It is like a "Do-Over" money wise!
Ugh, there's NO way I could ever get a house - even with a double income. At least in Boston. MA has EXTREME inflation in real estate. A house I went to see, which was one floor with no basement, which was a perfect rectange, had only a 15 by 14 living room, a 15 by 14 kitchen, which was just seperated from the living room by half a wall, one bedroom and one bathroom on either side of the living room and kitchen, and then a closet tucked away. No washer. No dryer. NO living space. Smelt like crap - looked worse. Price for thise place? $300,000. And that's REASONABLE.

Now, in Colorado... 3 bed room house, 2 floors, basement, 1 full bath, 1 half bath, two car garage, big back yard, fully appiled. BRAND new. Guess how much? $128,000.

I need to move.

wait for the housing market to pop....eventually.

i'm glad i don't have to deal with crap like that right now. i'm just a freshie in high school :P

i know a guy who's a senior at my school...sometimes he tries to drag me to his classroom or make me carry his books. or drag me into the "Senior Square", a reserved lunch area for seniors. anyone else caught moving in there is publicly humiliated.

good times....haha.

in other news, there is no news.

I need an opinion.

Someone in my guild that i have known for a while has been acting very very strange lately. They always offer to help people, Always, But here lately they get on, ask for help and get angry when someone is busy. Not to mention they don't call any of us by our real names anymore.

They also never use abbreviations and rarely make typos - both of which has been happening a lot lately.

They don't lack knowledge in guild wars at all, then seem to know about a lot of things - But it doesnt act like the guy i knew a month ago.

I'm kind of concered that maybe their account was stolen, beacuse something is going on. I don't talk to him anywhere else, and they haven't replyed to emails for a week or so.

Any suggestions?

That does sound weird. Does anyone else in the guild know him better than you or talk to him more often? Have they noticed this as well? I'd try and get in touch with him out of game to find out what happened. It sounds like his account has switched hands definitely, but without knowing if it was stolen or not, I'd wait before reporting it. If you can find out from him what's going on, then you could decide what to do next from there.

Bring it up with Anet and your guild members - spy on him, and Anet can track the IP (probably - that's what they did in AO).

No one else knows him any more then I do, But others have noticed this behavior. I have his e-mail but he hasn't replied - although he doesn't check him mail often.

There is also the fact that about a week ago they said they were going out of town and wouldn't be on for a few days. I asked 'him' about it today, and his reply is 'uhh i dunno sumthin came up'. Well in the event that he was going to say he doesnt know it would be typed "I am not sure, Something came up"

What I am thinking is that his account was taken and he is out of town, So he doesn't know yet.

Thanks for the advice though, I think i will contact Anet about this and have them track the IP

I doubt it is a sibling, He is about 30 years old and lives with his wife, No kids yet, But this person acts like they are 12.

really? how did they deem your password "strong"? do u like send it to them and then they tell you wether they think its strong or not? cause that could be a scam and some guy is actualy stealing your password! ONOES! that would be bad.
