English Lounge 2.0 - Improve Your English!

This thread is now serving as the lounge of the IndoGamers English World Sub-Forum.

First of all, I want to say welcome to this lounge!
This is the place where we can chit-chat, casual talk, discuss any absurd topics, and many more!
Although we can talk about everything here, we still have some rules to follow.

==================

Rules are stated :

1. Speak English
No Bahasa Indonesia posts are allowed here. You must speak English in order to socialize. Even so, you do not have to be well versed in English grammar and vocabulary. We are here to learn, so campur-sari is allowed. But still, expect some Grammar Nazis to correct your post.

2. No Exaggerated Swearwords
Since we are here to learn daily English conversations, I understand that sometimes we include some swearwords in our conversations. I find no reason to really avoid them. Words like crap, holy cow, etc are still allowed, as long as you do not overuse these words. I can tolerate most swearwords, but please hold yourselves from using beyond the F-word and it's derivatives.

3. No Greet and Run kind of posts
What is a Greet and Run post? It's a post that contain words like "Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening Night" or "Nice To Meet You" or "How are you" without any kind of interaction. If you do this, your post in particular will be considered a crime.

4. No Junk, OOT, Multipost without any interaction
Almost the same as section number 3, these kind of posts will be deleted right away with further processing of the ID that posts it.
For OOT and Multipost will be further explained below :

OOT
You can post a new topic as long as the previous one is out-of-date or no one talk about it for a very long time.

Multipost
If you want to share an additional info, please use the EDIT button. If you wonder where it is, just look below your post, on the right side along with the REPLY button and the REPLY WITH QUOTE button.
Even so, Multipost is still allowed for some conditions. Something like no one talks for a century and the last post is from you.

5. No Porn Posting and No Disturbing Picture
Also, no explicitly asking for links about these ones. This is for your sake of amusement only. Do not share it to everyone else.

If you dare to violate any of these rules, you will be punished depends on the level of violation that you did, your post may be deleted without notice, and please do yourselves a favor not to repeat it again.

Beyond these rules, I WILL UPDATE IT AS I SEE FIT AND I CAN DO IT WITHOUT NOTIFICATION. Posting and socializing here means that you have agreed to follow these rules. Any kind of violation will be processed and will be given punishment according to that particular violation.

==================

And the words below will be the topic starter. Have fun chatting in English!

well, sometimes in our lives we would need some grammar nazis to improve our english more and more
maybe their way of correcting is way too hurting, but for the right people, it's effective enough
and i don't mind if a grammar nazi correcting the way i speak, since my mom and some of my good teachers were also a grammar nazi :pcool:

from a newbie perspective, i do agree about this rule, but i have to give it some thought first

yes, i'm currently studying in one of the universities in Jakarta

you get a premium in a month eh? i remember getting mine in the year 2012, so that's 3 years :psweat:

and btw, congratulations! :pclap:
be prepared for every hardship you will encounter :pwink:

The idea is to give friendly environment for newbie speakers. They can follow and compare his post and the expert ones. This will naturally makes them improving their English, the example is; they may ask about some form of sentences, wondering why they never use it before, they ask, and we will do our best to explain.

whattt!!?? seriously 3 years?? :psurprise:

yes my Priest told me that a married life is a war zone, don't think that it will be like in those fairytales hahahaha

as i said before, i agree with your point

but, sometimes people even bother to ask, and this is what held me from using your advice

and so, i intend to let things be for awhile, and wait for someone to restore my faith in humanity :lalala:

yess i'm serious, i wasn't that active in those 3 years, thus the long acquired premium :psweat:

even these days a casual relationship could be a war zone dude :psweat:

okay... let's continue from where we stop, uhm about WoW Private Server,

which Priv Server are you playin in right now ??

and then are there many players in there??

i really... reaaaalllyyy.. reaaaallyyy wanna try to play WoW but never had a chance :onion-10:

and finally about the updates, is it up to date?? i once saw in Blizzard web, WoW version is in Mist of Pandarian patch yes? cmiiww:malu2:

I quit in burning crusade! I was playing in blizzard server, so the P2P was my biggest issue.

Now I'm moving on Dragon nest instead.

there are 2 privates i'm currently playing

one of them is owned by idgs and it's currently Cataclysm, you should check here http://idgs.in/f6

another one is from outside our country and has both Cataclysm and Pandaria, the name is mons*ter

as for retail, the latest right now is Pandaria (and soon it will be Warlords of Draenor)

It's worrying me as I heard Sylvanas' plan is to terminate any living beings in all over Azeroth.

owh the one idgs owned is only at Cataclysm patch.. Ahh that's right Warlord of Draenor is the newest updates.. I saw it on Steam..

I once played Dragonest, i really love the PVP system, but however it borings me just to stuck in town or dungeon, we can't meet anyone outside the towns (well when you're in party you can meet but only up to 3 people).

WoW has the fittest category of gameplay system for MMORPG in my issue...

in WoW we can do a PK on world map, just like Perfect World and Rising Force a.k.a RF, and also there are 2 sides crushing each other (sentinel and scourge).

My friend once shared his experience playing WoW.

He said there were times when he (warlock i think his job is) can teleport a group of Scourges into Sentinel side and slew every Sentinels on that area. (*take note that i might be misheard, or my friend told a ****** story, i don't know)

But hearing that made me obsseeessseedd so much to play this game... so i started searching in internet 'bout this game, finally what i found? this game is a P2P mother freakin gameeee arrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :sekarat:

Your friend might talked about Dota. The conflict in azeroth (in WOW) are not merely between good and evil.
Major faction there are just Alliance and Horde.

About Pk system. let's not compare Dragon nest with other MMORPG. Dragon nest is all-ages-friendly MMO, which less violence-system has already their standard trademark.

no, he was talking about WoW, i'm sure of it..

owh and that's right it was between Hordes and Alliances, somehow i mistook it for Sentinels and Scourges, haha my bad..

and i wasn't trying to compare Dragonest with other games, i was just trying to express my feeling about the type, or maybe my basic requirements for MMORPG.. hehe.. thanks for reminding me about Hordes and Alliances stuffs.

And because of those kind of system (violences, free PK in world map, etc) i reaaally wanna play WoW...

where are you playing your Dragonest Quel? I mean which server ?

Althea. I have LV 60 warden (Artillery) :D
https://scontent-a-sin.xx.fbcdn.net/...65430185_n.jpg

So far, I hate PVP. It was vengeance that brought me till this far.
Once my character killed, I will hunt whoever that had slew my character. No matter if they are my friends, I will treat them as if they are my real enemies(Yes, even in real life) and I will never stop until I can kill them back.

putress? he's dead already dude http://emos.plurk.com/c808a45ab0beee...5_w48_h48.jpeg

http://wowpedia.org/Grand_Apothecary_Putress

hundreds are not good enough :muntah:

even playnexia II now has been played by thousands of players...

i guess i will have to stick with Ragnarok Online 2 NA-Server a lil' bit longer :heh:

He may referred to who were online on the server, not overall users.

My bad then, i was referring to how much who were online :psweat:

As for total players, hmm i don't know, ten thousands maybe?

As the game which almost reached 10 millions users. It does not make any sense if the private server has several active players.

Tho, day after day, people's interest is gradually waning to this game.

My post just now referred to users who online often..

Priv server may have less players then the real ones, but, on the other hand, it may reach to a number of players close enough with the real ones, why?

well, i'm thinking that real WoW is a P2P game, if people dislike the P2P method, ofcourse they will find another way to play and move to a Priv which is F2P..

But that's a very rare case, because Priv servers are always 3 or 5 steps behind the real one. That makes their passions go..

But the P2P method is still the biggest issue that force people to stick with private server. Disregarding its natural habit in term of slow update.

yeah.. it's still the main reason why people move to priv server...

owh Queldorei, you're playing Indonesian Dragonest right? I played Dragonest once in Void Server, Indonesian Dragonest also.

I'm a Lv 50 Moon Lord (Lunar Knight in Indonesian version)

And we are in attempt to keep it stay alive.


Edit: Where are you people. I'm feeling forever alone T_T

what a lazy sunday

just waking up at 1.00 pm http://emos.plurk.com/c808a45ab0beee...5_w48_h48.jpeg

Ah finally my vocation days, eh I mean months, yes we will have 3 months without having any college grudges!

good for you dude

my 3 months free days is still 2 months away :ngantuk:

Time to get back to the forest. Where this kind of language is likely something that alien.

which forest? the one below dalaran? http://emos.plurk.com/c808a45ab0beee...5_w48_h48.jpeg

Eversong forest. For some nostalgia.

I'm bored with Crystalsong.

while you there, give Dar'khan a kick in the ass for messing up with the Sunwell

I will gladly spare one of my Crystal arrows to be embedded on his undead limb.

btw quel, can you tell me how the Scourge penetrate the Elfgate?

i'm kinda confused about this part of lore, some said they used Key of the Three Moons, some other said Dar'khan is the one messing up the defense system :bloon:
