If the demand is high enough, I can get north US versions and re-charge vouchers into the country at a very low price, the owner of the store in Canada is willing to give me a bulk discount rate.

I mentioned earlier in this thread that i was getting the 132 error since the 1.5.1 patch, as were many others with a particular combo of cpu/chipset.
Many gamers were affected, most had Amd cpu's, nforce2 chipsets, and a very many had asus A7n8X mobos. I only recently managed to fix it. After trawling through about 30 forum pages i changed my Cas Latency from 3T to 2.5T & havent crashed since, touch wood. Other fixes involved clocking down the cpu, luckily i didn't have to do this. Strange though that everything was just fine until the latest patch.

Since the last update all sorts of funnies have been happening. A mate who I game with regurlarly recently had his dialog box disappear and had to reinstall WoW to get it fixed. Also he had server specific latency issues. :confused:

If it was US account I might have been able to convince my Fiance to take it up, I'll speak to some friends though.

As to the questions about the errors, just checking if they have been fixed with patch 1.6 last night.... Funny thing on that. I couldn't seem to get more than 4k on the patcher last night, Finally gave up and checked the mirrors. Fileshack had a mirror with a 13 sec wait time so I tried to get it from there, Of course I got the message that pops up and says :

"Please note.. You are not a mercury server user. Upgrade now from your standard guest account if you do not want to be capped at 500kbps download speed"

Quiet ironic I felt that their free download server is as fast as my 512 Fastest ADSL in the country connection can handle.... Got the patch in 6 min.. At least I dont have to subscribe to their fast service.. LOL

Ja, i shoulda taken advice offered earlier and chosen another class, lol. Though i must say, i get real satisfaction getting honor kills when the horde raid astranaar. Druids have 2 work hard 4 them, or at least, i have to.
Last night i had the satisfaction of drowning 2 in a row in the pool next to astranaar, nothing beats it, lol. Not everyone knows not to follow a druid underwater :)

I am ranging from 500ms to 800ms on a DSL192 line

i use ISDN and range from 400-800 ms, so its quite similar to what you have... depends on day of week and month too...

Yeah the seal rocks! But that's pretty much where it ends for a Druid ;) . Want honour kills galore, just hit BG. Root a horde, faerie fire and let the rest of the guys kill. :D

Faerie Fire a rogues worst nightmare. :cool:

A lot more than that is my rogues nightmare :(

As to drowning in Astranaar... Now I know why I always carry swim/underwater breathing pots with me... But I am also alliance again so dont have to worry myself about that. But the horde raiding Astranaar seem to be a pain ono every server, its safer to level in the barrens than Astranaar

With the pings, I'm using a Nukecap account to play WoW and my pings are between 280 and 550 on a 512 ADSL connection. It does spike now and then but its still very playable

LMAO... Just head across the sea's. Westfall, Lakeshire and Duskwood are generally horde free :rolleyes:

Come play on Thunderlord... Its really a pain to try get a new Character up in levels now.

Westfall: Moonbrook is under horde control 50% of the time
Lakeshire: From the North road to Stonewatch.. Horde
Duskwood: Raven Hill Cem always has a wanna be horde rogue or two sniping the newbs, even if they usually suck and most newbs 5 levels under them can kill them

Of course this does mean that when your 40 or above as alliance you can go where ever you want to because all the L60 horde are killing the newbies, Which in effect causes all the L60 Alliance to rush in and help out.. No wonder the plaguelands are always empty

But still fun none the less, if it wasn't we wouldn't play right :)

No can do play on EU servers. But it doesn't seem to be that hectic on my server (Dragonmaw). I thought with BG up and running PvP activity would have died down a bit. :confused: Although in Light Hope Chapel last night you had to pick your time carefully as it swung from one faction to another. :cool:
