I just wanted to let people who have trouble changing their ip know that they can use Juno for free dial up connection. It's as slow as molasses but hey it's free and you'll get a new ip everytime you log in.

Thanks Heather, Juno was actually one of my first ISP ever! Every time I would play Starcraft with some buddies of mine, it would kick me off half way through the game. You can't believe how crazy that can drive a person when you're winning a game. I lost a lot of good computer peripherals that summer.

I never played starcraft but I have played other mmporg games like Asheron's Call, FFXI, WoW...

My kids think their mom rocks!! hehe:D

Hey, I'm a girl and I play video games. I'm not a mom though.

What bugs me is RPGs like Baldur's Gate who let you play female characters, yet most of the interesting subplots like romances are written for male players only. Like in BG2 a male character has three elf chicks vying for his attention while the female player gets stuck with one boring self-absorbed tool.


Game programmers think all gamers are male and so we girl gamers get totally shafted.
