Firefly MMORPG

Friday, December 8th, 2006

FireflyI’m not a big fan of MMORPG’s.

In all reality, ive never actually really played one, but I dont like having to pay a monthly subscription, and I dont like the look of the the hours needed to actually be a decent participant in the game. I like standard RPG’s alot – can sit down whenever I like and play through however much I want.

Anyway, things for me may change with the release of a just announced Firefly MMORPG! I love Joss Wheadon’s one-series masterpiece Firefly (check my link to Firefly S2 in the sidebar), and this could well be something that interests me enough to get on the MMORPG bandwagon. It may not – who knows – but it certainly is good news that the characters wont be abandoned just yet! Time will tell if it’ll be any good, but for now I’ll be sticking with Oblivion.

I know, i’ve gone quiet again… but this time with good reason! I’ve been spending my time working on my new website – http://www.andrewanderson.co.uk – which I will be using as my main website for my new career as an actor (Andrew Anderson is my professional name).
Its still under construction, but please feel free to take a look! If you spot any errors please let me know!

Anyhow, i’ll start posting regularally again soon…

Corsair Customer Service – there are good people in the world

Sunday, December 3rd, 2006

I had a Corsair 1GB Flash Voyager USB drive, and had been using it for a few months. It has a keyring loop, so thats exactly what i used it for – putting it on the end of my keys. Anyway, after a month the cap got loose and i kept losing it (but luckily finding it again). This was annoying, but not the end of the world as the thing still worked. However, after having the keys hanging off it a few times, the usb connection started to get loose. Then eventually it snapped off…

Obviously this was a bit annoying, however you can pick up USB keys dirt cheap these days, so I wasnt too worried! But i thought i’d try and RMA it anyway. So i got an RMA number and sent it back by the cheapest post to the USA (which was about £1.20). A couple of weeks later I get a brand new sealed one back, delivered by UPS!

I’d half expected them to turn around and say it was physical damage, therefore my problem. So I just wanted to say thanks to Corsair – there still are some companies with good customer service in the world (yes, you should take note Bulldog!).
