since games are illegal here, only pirated cracked games are sold
Why buy a pirated copy? You can get those by yourself... I can help you out with downloading for free if you want. =)
It's probably moderated.
Possible. Didn't think of that... That sucks.
well, I only download pirated games if I ABSOLUTELY MUST, because over here the Internet speed SUCKS ASS.
to give you an idea, Deus Ex Human Revolutions, never made it to my country (Venezuela) neither legally nor pirated, so if I wanted to play it I HAD to download it, yes or yes.
Well, that game's installer weights about 6gb and that took nearly 2 weeks to download.
Considering that paying for a pirated copy at the black market bazaars costs merely 20.000 bolivares, I'd rather buy it than spend 2 weeks downloading it, not to mention that during all those 2 weeks I was unable to play wow, or use any youtube-like website because the speed plummeted to below-zero rates (a 1min video on youtube would take 40min to load up, and in wow, the ms was always above 4k)
Moral of the story: downloading pirated games, or movies is posible here, but it takes too long, its usually cheaper to just buy them.
I wish I could just buy the legal product, but hey, if its not sold in my country what else am I supposed to do?

All the tanks and I stay really close to everyone. I really have no idea what the &*!@ it is. At least Vikey heals me lol.I'm not sure what current tanking mechanics are like, but when I was playing, if the tank was anything other than a paladin, the best practice was to wait at least 6 seconds (4 GCDs) after the tank started attacking before you started attacking. This gives any decent tank time to get through most of his AoE rotation, and anything you do from there shouldn't really steal aggro.
I'm going to assume you are assist targeting (ie targeting the tank and then targeting his target). If you're aren't, the default assist keybind is F, IIRC. If you have re-bound F to one of your abilities, make sure you bind the assist key. It doesn't have to be an easily accessible key, since you have that 6 second window to start attacking. So you can bind it to like F12 or somehting.
If you wait 6 seconds and you are assist targeting and you still manage to pull aggro, the tank is a superscrub and you should vote-kick him.
Well, currently, any given tank is capable of generating such extreme amounts of threat, that DPS really are not able to consistently pull aggro (esp. DPS with no super leet raid gear, as in Chels' case). Superscrub.

Yeah, the tanking threat generation is something like 500% at the moment I think. So pulling threat from a tank either means their AoE missed or they sucked. ;)

n00b tank, case closed.
Unless you were playing a ret pally and accidentally left righteous fury on, or a DK and left blood presence on, there is no excuse for a tank to lose agro, unless he or she is the sort to hit mobs once and then go AFK.
a tank constantly attacking generates 500% more aggro than the rest of the group, nothing short of you outgearing the tank by 60 ilvl or more should allow you to pull aggro, unless the tank sucks.

Fair enough. DPS was so extreme at the end of Wrath that tanks really had their work cut out to hold aggro. Top players were doing 17-22k DPS, which if I'm not mistaken, is pretty close to what is considered decent DPS these days. Things change I guess, but that was best practice when I was playing.

Of all the "Western" countries (I hate that term), the US would be the worst to live in, by a long shot.

Hehe it's such an iffy definition, where exactly would you define the equator of the world as, lengthways? :P But I don't know, Greece, Spain and Italy would be much,
much
worse.

I'm not sure if Greece fits under the iffy definition. You're probably right about those 3 countries, but I'd still hate to live in America. It holds absolutely no appeal to me. I'm pretty certain that my life would be worse if I moved there.
EDIT: oh, and it definitely has nothing to do with location, since Australia and NZ are considered "Western". I guess it comes down to being white, capitalist, and Christian (or founded by Christians).

This just occurred to me, but is South America Western? I've never heard it been called either Eastern or Western.

Well, since our current president is Black, socialist, and comes from a Christian AND Muslim background, how does that fit into your equation :P

its so very very obvious you haven't lived here to make that statement.
No matter how bad the US is, its worst over here.
Edit: just saying, I could tell you some stories about venezuela that would chill your blood to sub-zero temperatures and keep you from sleeping for a few weeks, but I better dont, this IS a family-friendly forum after all.
Just keep in mind that no matter how bad the US has it, in the entire american continent the 2 worst places to live at the moment happen to be Venezuela and Cuba. At least in the US you dont have to pay twice your monthly income just to get a videogame, or have to go to a run-down hell hole in the middle of nowhere to buy stuff at a semi-decent pricing, you are allowed to complain instead of being shot and/or incarcerated, you are allowed to leave if you dont like it, basic human rights exist, and freedom in general exists.
just read my sig, "Freedom is the one thing people take most for granted........ till its taken away from you". You will NEVER know how much you miss it, till you dont have it.

say..... jubilee, you happen to have any of those magical utorrents for the PC version of Skyrim?

I don't think Cuba is technically Western as they allied with the Soviets in the Cold War.
