OK, let say i'm buying a house or condo at market value RM450k.
And i have RM300k saving, and only need Rm150k loan.
I was thinking of gettnig flexi loan, but here my dilemma.
Should i just take RM150k loan with the rate being offer at BLR - 2.0% throughout.
Or
Take RM400k loan at th rate of BLR - 2.3%, then dump my RM300k and restructure back my loan.
so my loan will become RM150k loan at BLR - 2.3%.
Do you think i will save much? Is it a good idea?

Gear missing when playing

aaltong — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 12:37:22 +0800

I just realise that my Felsteel Helm and Gladiator Plate Shoulder was missing before i'm logging off.
I think it just went missing while i was playing.
not really sure whwt happen, but i'm very sure did not accidently sell it.
But I did swith from my DPS gear to tanking gear in the mid of a fight against elite mob (The final quest for Grom'tol charge axe)
So maybe during that time it went missing due to some bug or whatever.

I submited a ticket to GM, do you all think it is possible to get it back?? If yes, how long does it take for them to replace it?
I have gemed it up too, possible to get it back exactly like before?

AFK be gone !

Not sure this is true or not.
Someone got banned for 3hours and all his BG gears being striped off for being caught AFK to many time in BG.
But gears that are bought with Arena points are left untouched.
below is the reply he got from Blizzard.

Wall climbing trick in WSG

aaltong — Wed, 09 Jan 2008 19:10:08 +0800

Had a WSG two days ago which lasted like more than 30mins.
Because of the wall climbing trick on alliance side.
Some how we manage to capture the flag twice by tricking him to jump down from the wall.
But after that he got smart and not fall for it anymore.
And they can't capture their flag back, which i really don't know why.
no one stay back at their base to help defence since they can bloody climb the wall.
i assume the rest of the alliance was at our base trying to get back their flag.
Finally we decided to give up because it taking too long and simply not worth it.

So i was wonder is it allowed? Or can we complain to GM about this?
This can be done only by alliance side ? because I have not seen horde side doing it.

Warrior that just arrive at outland

aaltong — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 10:43:34 +0800

Hi all, been lurker here for quite some time now.
played WOW for two months plus and got really hooked on it.
I'm lvl61 orc warrior and start lvl'ing at outland already.
I was wondering, do you guys (fellow warrior) respec. to prot once reach outland?
Or continue arm or fury spec. until certian lvl ??
now i keep receive request to join raid as MT, but no being prot spec. and without SS, i find it a bit hard to hold aggro.
before that i seldom do raid while lvling to 60. and when i do, i don't seem to have much problem there, and people do not aspect you to be prot. spec. before lvl60.
Therefore i was wondering should i respec to prot. spec now that i'm in outland ?
If prot spec. how do all you handle solo quest ? won't that be really hard?
some suggested respec. to prot and have two sets of gears (DPS gears and prot gears), but at lvl61 gears is still crappy.
I think i will still have problem lvling up even with DPS gears in prot. spec.
Really confused and not sure which direction should i go. Any suggestion ??
