Lotro: Mines of Moria Pre-Launch

Oh what fun.  You know, it's amazing the things that get posted to a games forums while the servers are down for patches.  I could write a thesis on the phobias that become evident when people lose access to their online addictions.  Within 1 minute of the servers going offline, there had to be 50 new threads asking when they'll be back up.  Dozens of people giving very impressive arguments about why it's completely critical that they be provided with an exact hour, minute, and second that the servers will be back.

 Then there's the people who try to appease the boredom of waiting for the servers to come back online by reading pre-launch write-ups on less than reputable sites, and then charging into the official forums to post the most indignant rants *without* bothering to verify the facts.  Then they wonder why they're shot down in flames.

 Whoa!  2 servers are up, time to go play. :-) 

 

Newsflash

Obviously most of the traffic I get here are guest logins, just people browsing around.  And for the moment, that's fine.  But as the site grows and I put in more and more content, I'll be setting the majority of the really good stuff to "registered" only.  If you like what you can see as a guest, trust me, you'll like the registered user content even more.
