New Atttiude - Lonely at the Bottom
by Julie Whitefeather
“I think what’s happening is that social networking has infiltrated every aspect of the internet, and that same is true of games. I think you’re going to see a lot more social networking aspects to games, but are they competing? I don’t think they are. Something like Facebook is entertaining, but it’s not the same entertainment that we offer. I do see more usage of them though, that’s for sure”
- John Smedley, in an interview with Gamesindustry.biz “MMOWeek: SOE president John Smedley”
I recently had a discussion with Dorothy from The Older Gamers (TOG) about this very same issue which John Smedly mentions in the quote above.

Rock and Roleplay is still underground!
Kira and Drue from Rock and Roleplay have been lost in a dungeon for some time now. They are still trying to find their way out but in the mean time they will be discussing the different types of dungeons and the impact of the different kinds of terrains that they can be made of.
Join Kira and Drue Saturday from 3-5pm for Rock and Roleplay
Grind is the Enemy!!!
Well… Is grind really the enemy?
I think it is. No, I’m sure it is… maybe. But of course it is!!!
… hmm, or is it?
You know what… I think **SMACK**
Ah thank you, random invisible person. You’re absolutely right, I should save it for the show later:
The Ravecast is tonight! Hosted by Leonai_art and Luxx. We also have a special guest joining us from one of our other shows. I’m not going to say who it is, Sheryl would like to remain anonymous until the start of the show. Now guess what the topic is tonight! Wait, don’t guess, I’ll tell you!
…Okay, no I won’t! **SMACK**
(… ouch)

Developers Aren’t Lemmings
Lemmings. These adorable little green topped yellow guys can do anything that you want them to do. Tell them to stop and redirect traffic, and they’ll put on a hat that grabs the attention of the other lemmings, put out their arms, and shake their heads telling the other lemmings to turn around and not continue going that direction.
Sometimes it seems as though gamers feel that the people developing the games can do the same thing - as though each person who is a “developer” is so multi-faceted that they can do anything and everything, and tend to do so and not look at other areas until “one area” has been worked on and completed.
It is very frustrating to read forums or hop into IRC and see the misconception from people who ordinarily, I would find to be highly intelligent people. In this “area”, it seems that the ball is falling short of the intelligence hoop.

New Attitude - A Gripe Runs Through It
A gripe runs through it –
By Julie Whitefeather
First, my apologies for the lateness of my column this week - All I can say is “mia culpa”. When real life didn’t intervene this week I engaged in escapism to escape from when it DID intervene. This week I discuss why people quit mmos, and why some remain loyal even through a rough opening for a game.

More “Book 13″ shots added to our LotRO Gallery!
We have 7 new screenshots of the new Lord of the Rings Online free content update, “Book 13: Doom of the Last-king”, which was released April 24th. You can find them in our LotRO gallery. I personally like the shot of the armored wooly mammoth rider, that thing rocks.
If you already play the game and didn’t know, the LotRO Allakhazam site has a huge database for in-game items and quests. Check it out, you may just find something listed that you missed while playing.
