Pornstar banned from WoW

Posted in Babes, Gaming, Geek, Internet, Nerd, Real-Life™ by aceman on August 17, 2007

WoW mock coverWell, there’s something you don’t hear of every day. Apparently, a pornstar called Mia Rose plays World of Warcraft or at least she did until a ‘fan’ spotted her on the Mai’ Ganis server and was promptly banned when a GM supposedly saw the chat and apparently the website that the fan mentioned in the chat.

She’s been unable to contact Blizzard to get a proper response as to why she has been banned, but to beMia Rose honest, if the reason is because she’s a pornstar, regardless of what films she’s been in, then it’s a retarded reason for banning her.

Does the admin that banned her expect players of WoW to be just spotty nerds that have no life? Although that may be true for some, I think he needs to realise that there are some normal people out there that like to play online games, despite what they do for a living.

Friday Former Site #1

Posted in Funny, General, Internet by aceman on August 17, 2007

I’ve found a notepad which has a load of sites I wrote down from 7 years ago and as I looked through the URLs, I decided to check some out to see if they still existed, apparently, some do.

Thus, I bring to you a new series, FFS. Friday Former Site, I’ll be picking out a URL from the rather large list and if it still exists, will link to it for you to see just how silly/funny/freaky/whatever it is.

The first site is something I’m sure you’ve all done or wanted to do at some point in your life, but haven’t been very good at it. Don’t despair, help is at hand with…

NNScript 4.1 released

Posted in Apps, IRC, Internet, Programs by aceman on August 17, 2007

For all you people that use IRC, the most popular script (at least on QuakeNet) has been updated to 4.1.

It was designed to work with mIRC 6.21, but 6.3 was released just yesterday, so the NNS team are working on testing 4.1 with 6.3. If you want to download NNScript 4.1, you can get it from here and it’s only a 966 KB download.

The changelog is after the break…

Well guess what ‘legbiter’, the account will never be activated until you use your own email address since I have no interest in whatever crap you sign up for. Why the fuck do people keep using my address to sign up for stuff? They’re only wasting their time and especially if it’s an email like the one above where an activation link is waiting to be clicked on, I just can’t understand why they use the address, it seriously baffles me.
