Collectors editions for games. I don't know which game caused it (Halo? Or earlier games?) but it seems too many developers are jumping on this: "Hey, lets bundle an extra cd that has premade things like concept art and charge an extra $10-20 for it so we can cash in even more than normal" bandwagon.

The only collectors edition I've got is for Halo 3...It was alright, but in a sense I had no choice since all others were sold out (I took someone else's preorder, and I hadn't preordered XD)

Every time I restart my Computer it deletes my user account along with all my settings(Firefox, Visual studio, etc). :(

The sad part is I just formatted my whole computer no more then 2 days ago. :?

Nope.

I get a message box saying my account is corrupted once it gets to the "Welcome" screen.

If you have Vista, try doing windows doctor. Sure fixed my computer big time when I was having those types of problems.

I still can't upload my avatar. D:

Anybody know when it will be back up?

Nope, It's XP Pro SP2.

I didn't do anything that would've caused this. I'm suspecting Windows Update.

It installed like 10 updates today...

My guess would be shortly after Grenadiac gives Iron_Forge access to the server.

Turk's an evil guy.

He lures you into a false sense of security and then hits you on the head with a flag.

So I need to take notes on a book of Edgar Allan Poe, so naturally I go straight to Wikipedia. And here is what I'm given:
