It is no secret that there are chinese business that offer you to level your character for you for x amount of dollars. They also sell gold. I think it is more of these type of characters that you see doing that. Blizzard makes it very difficult for you to have a bot controlling your character. They even go so far as to scan your open processes on your computer to see if you have anything like that running. (It is in the EULA)

Well I know standing there does something useful...
maybe simply to gain you more time, but it does do something that is cheating...

If you have your character there through your internet connection on your computer then I see nothing wrong with that

The only thing that you could possibly be talking about is Rest XP, which is something that Blizzard built into the game intentionally. But, as usual, you are talking out of your ass about a subject that you know absolutely nothing about and claiming that you are an expert on it.

It gives you money or Honor.
So, i think you really need to be quiet, and stop talking about something you know nothing about... Through your ass.

The only statement I can get from NVIDIA is that they will have a driver out by the consumer release, which is kind of pathetic as they have been quite quick with all the drivers through both the betas and release candidates.
How did you get it to work on Vista. I just intalled it and I can't do anything, it takes 15mins for me to be able to click on a button. It thinks I'm a 400Mhz computer or something. Whats wrong, its even running in capatibilty mode for xp.

*edit, had to install the 101 beta drivers. Hopefully everything else still works fine.

Yep. He hates everything Intel, just because it is Intel. Benchmark after benchmark after benchmark, he insists that AMD is better even after being proven otherwise.

Now now, I insist that my AMD laptop processor is better than the equivalent Intel C2D, and the better ones...
This is from personal experience, i have never used a desktop C2D so i cant comment.
And yes, I do hate intel, dont know where it comes from, but i do.

It gives you the ability to earn honor at double the rate if you let your character rest in a major city or inn. And again, it is something that Blizzard built into the game intentionally. If they had a problem with their users abusing it, then they would put an end to it. Oh please, please try to school me on a game that I have been playing every day on the past four months. You don't need to school me on here, just IM me.

A little off-topic, but this article about griefing a botter is hilarious. In fact, notaddicted.com is hilarious if you play WoW. This one is a must read; gut busting funny! Congrats on 70 by the way!
