  for my i choose to come back because of my parents and other reason that i shall not bore u with.
  
  i'm in the IT line, mainly in this system called SAP. if u do hear of an opening do let me know
  
  i might explore other options like taking my masters but that will have to come after the wedding. the wedding is a big money sinker
  
  

  Oh it took me quite a long time to find a job. That's why after 1 and half year not finding anything, I decided to bite the bullet and left for Singapore to work for a while. It was really difficult because my SO was here (he was still my bf then). Anyway, I was in Singapore for only 9 months and came back. Found a job within 3 months. I have been working in the same company since.
  
  There is definitely a lot of IT jobs but problem with IT, there are so many different systems and languages and usually very specific. I think if you know C++, it will be a bonus.

  i once saw a program that this hospital used maggots to eat up the dead flesh in this guys legs.
  
  have to remove them by 72 hours before they turn into flies.
  
  he said it felt ticklish, but it works.
  
  and yes i heard of ppl using leeches, good for blood circulation.
  
  if i'm not wrong, in japan they have this pond where u dip ur feet inside, and small fishes comes around to nimble at ur dead skin or sth.

  I can choose:
  1. Their Faction
  2. Their Race
  3. Their Hair Type & Color
  4. I can choose their Face Type
  5. I can choose the skin color
  6. I can choose the accessories
  
  For GE it's all fixed.

  if its a free to play game then customization is usually by cash shop.
  
  but this game is going to be like guild wars, so i don't understand why they do nto offer it.
  
  FAIL FAIL!
  
  they sell the game to a better company, that is more willing to develop the game rather then just sell the game for the "first time in mmo history we have a 3 character system"..tsk..

  Cash shop... I thought next time you have to pay for it
  WTF man everyone looks generic unless you get new clothes
  I mean it's like a clone world
  All wizards have this face etc
  
  3 charc system big deal
  I already dun like the way we move the charcs
  Machium like playing RPG game (reminds me of non-online AD&D games)

  nono not sabotage. ok what would you do if he refuses to stop and still piles more work to you? talk to his boss about what his doing and either get him fired or repositioned or what ever?
  
  i was reccomending pointing out his (real)incompetence to his boss to stop him from doing that nonsense to you and every one else. or perhaps some other method you can think of.
  
  you'll notice thats what stella reccomended to and i think tare agreed on.
  
  i said nothing about backstabbing him or sabotaging him.
  
  hmmz wait he tried to railroad you isn't sabotaging? why is that lower or higher?

  precisely, its not even a cash shop game, so there should be customization for you. ash shop games charges u for customization, p2p should not. thats why its dumb.
  
  thats why, its a failure in korea.
  
  oh talking bout customization, perfect world has lotsa that. oh well, its the prc version of WoW.

  "doctor fish" in Turkey.. they eat the diseased skin of the 'patients' causing a little bit of bleeding.. which in turn clears up the circulation of the problematic parts
  
  but the spring where the fish live in have higher concentrations of selenium which helps healing (sorta like dandruff )
  
  as for the maggots, yah.. they will eat the pus and dead tissue but will leave the living tissue alone.. this clears up the mess and allows for proper healing
  
  leeches suck out the blood which stagnates in the veins.. arterial blood has the pressure to push it through while venous blood may just sit there, stagnate, clot and cause damage to post-microsurgery parts.. so leeches are applied..

  Actually for Perfect World
  
  

  Huge continuous terrain
  The entire game world is within one large map that requires no loading or no changing of maps so players can move around without waiting for scenes to change.

  This large world map actually reminds me of Ultima Online
  
  The own cities etc also reminds me of Ultima Online
  
  In fact it looks like a blend between UO and WoW leh
  
  (I moved from UO to WoW)

  oh yes you did
  
  like i said, just because they do it to you, doesn't mean you gotta do it to them..
  
  talking to him solved everything.. and if he continues, i'll talk to him again..
  
  like i said, it was probably his boss who put him up to this..

  theres no race/class in GE?
  
  well, guess the only real things you can change is the face, skin colour and hair in WoW.
  
  accesories are equips right?
  
  faction? you mean orc and what ever? thats more like story line right?

  and if he doesn't stop? just keep talking? not gonna do anything else?
  
  so basically if talking to him doesn't work, means you going to just take it?

  there is a certain time.. where those who do this will hang themselves..
  
  and there are other ways to do things without taking the low road..
  
  again i say.. just because others do it, doesn't mean you have to

  No race in GE
  Class depends on what you want but only 5 or 6 to choose from
  
  Fighter
  Wizard
  Elementalist
  Scout
  Musketeer
  (?)
  
  Faction to be Horde or Alliance dun really affect the storyline much but Aliiance is easier to play but Horde more fun
  
  For Classes in WoW there are:
  
  Warrior
  Rogue
  Priest
  Druid
  Mage
  Warlock
  Hunter
  Paladin
  Shaman
  
  And the skills are not fixed. For each class you can be specced differently, because under each Class there are 3 trees which you can choose to specialise in
