First off, the game was not made for just RP...Thus blizzard added things that attract many different players. Yes, they have capture the flag. This appeals to the people that enjoy doing PVP. There are PVP servers too. But it is not like they are going to take out that type of battleground for RP servers just because it &#039;doesn&#039;t fit&#039;.Going out of character is the will of the player. Why not allow they to go out of character when they don&#039;t feel like rping at that moment? Some people enjoy all aspects of the game. It seems to me that all -you- are looking for is a game simply for RP. Of course, World of Warcraft isn&#039;t for you.World of Warcraft RP. People enjoy being creative in their own way. If you think it is stupid, then oh well, that is your own opinion. If they are having fun with it, it doesn&#039;t matter. It is a game. That is what it is meant for.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I disagree with a few of your points.

A fine modem, but locked by bezeq to any kind of configuration. At the time I was a newbie to Linux and could not configure a dialer on my computer. The easiest way was to turn the modem in to a dialer. Of course, bezeq claimed it was impossible.. about 3 months later anyone with that specific modem &quot;hacked&quot; it and used it as a dialer.I now have the Aztec 600E POS modem. It has caused me nothing but trouble since the day I received it. Bezeq have swapped it 4 times to new 600E&#039;s with &quot;updated firmware&quot; (bs!) claiming it is the only modem available with an Ethernet connection (bs again!).They tried making me sign a contract for a ROUTER that is also a modem.
ONLY 29.9 Shekels a month, for 3 years, which comes to a total of 1,076.4 Shekels.Oh, and the routers Wi-Fi capabilities don&#039;t include g/n.They are stupid to think that there aren&#039;t any people like you who publish &quot;hacks&quot; online.Anyways, I searched for E600 config just to make sure no one made a tutorial on how to do it, cause I was going to make one. You beat me to it! BY A YEAR! :)</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I feel for you.</p><p>The whole ISP/Infrastructure thing in Israel is a load of BS.</p><p>When I first got ADSL in 1998 from bezeq, it was with the Alcatel Home Touch modem that came with it.
