That rodent is my step dad, and it costs $80k to reference him, and another $100k to use him as a news headline. You'll be hearing from my lawyers.

Maybe I'm a jerk, but I think instead of tasing her I'd have pushed her cart over.

DAMMIT!
I just scoured this whole thread hoping somebody didn't make this joke so that I could! Oh, I'll have my revenge.

Ever see that episode of the Simpsons where Mr. Burns goes to the doctor and finds out that he has a copious amount of diseases and disorders, and through some miracle their codependence keeps him alive? Imagine. My sister's computer: an eMachines PC with a Celeron processor running Windows ME. The thing was rock solid. It never crashed. I didn't dare touch it, update it, nothing. No new hardware. Just left the thing alone and it chugged along for quite a while.

A few other people here have noted that Warhammer's population is spread very thin. A game like WoW will suffer from a low population server. However, it is not its undoing. A WoW server can thrive despite its low population. You can do raids on a low population server. For Warhammer, low population ruins the game, and I'm not entirely positive that they realized this in the beginning. Everything in the game depends on there being a constant avalanche of people doing things. This way you have people constantly sieging keeps, constantly in scenarios (PvP arenas), constantly doing public quests, and you're constantly fighting. The game (as I'm sure many of you know) is very PvP centric. A large population ensures that you can log into the game, find the latest war zone, and then go start busting heads. The game was designed this way, and now they're actually encouraging this. I'm hoping this makes the game more like it was envisioned. If they can keep server populations high they'll do well.
