mind burn now just make it into my skill bar now though and the divine boon update was moot
 
Wow, I stopped home for lunch and figured I'd get a few minutes of play in, but it's a HUGE download, especially since I figured I'd update the client on both computers. Anyone using dial-up beware. Client update alone was over 17MB with at least 9 more after the login screen was up.

They did update the login screen with Nightfall graphics. It looks pretty good.
 
Assassin and Rit didn't seem to be nerfed. In fact, most seem to be un-nerfed - all decreased recharge or energy or increased damage.
 
I was just stating the it may be the cause of his ailment. It is proven that sleep will get you feeling better then staring at a monitor. you can either take advice or be stuipid, your choice.
 
You made a comment about windows for the 100th time...

I think the windows themes cause me to be sick and nausiated.

And your incessant chattering about M$ is getting me very ticked off. 30% because half the stuff you say about windows is bogus, 30% because I use and am very much satisfied with M$ products, 20% because you won't take a hint and be quiet after more and more people are getting annoyed, 10% because-

*grrrkkkkhhch*
*more compy-grinding noises*
[Windows error. (Send Error Report/Don't send *clicks no*) Restarting in 20...19...18...]
 
Quit being a smart aleck. I have been quite annoyed by your Windows cracks. So, kindly stop it. For the entire forum's sake. ***Post edited after reading what I said.***

P.S. Don't pick on C$.
