Text of the page (random words):
you get with a group of people or how good of friends they seem there is always the possibility that they ll turn on you whenever they feel convenient or even funny to my friends staying on area 52 i wish you all good luck and i ll see you around to the people who talked shit about me i hope you grow up and see the error of your ways you lost a friend the kind of friend that is rare its sad that you got your jollies off by listening to my voice in vent its sad that you disregarded the fact that i m a real person a person who would have done anything for you as a friend and anything for the guild posted by anonymous at 11 10 am 7 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels drama fail guild transferring mixing rp and other servers okay before i get to the main topic one thing needs to be said me and my big mouth i d written yesterday about how i only tank in emergencies when lfd spewed me into violet hold what you were expecting that i d be watching lost nah that s my wife s addiction but it did allow me some play time well it was a strange grouping to say the least two mages a tree a dk tank and quint the first three looked like new 80 s judging by their gear while the tank and i were a bit more on the purple side the first bunch of pulls went okay if slow i had to really dial back on my hits to keep from pulling aggro and the mages didn t have a lot of firepower we got the void demon boss and about 4 5 minutes later we knocked him out then a couple of pulls into the next phase the dk tank stops moving i ll brb have to go move clothes to the laundry room he says pally you tank while i was trying to formulate a response the next portal opened use righteous fury was his parting shot i know that i thought i just want people to keep me upright luckily the trash mob was just a portal guardian so that wasn t so bad i could see my health bouncing around like a ping pong ball and at one point i dumped lay on hands on myself but i survived then dbm announced boss incoming oh crap about the only good thing i could say then was that it was the water elemental boss tank one of the mages called you back no reply joy i said and pulled aggro i almost immediately dropped to 1k and had to do something to preserve myself lay on hands was on cooldown so i had no choice but to bubble and then chase after the boss before she turned the tree into so much splintered wood finally the tank returned from doing his laundry and pulled aggro everything returned to normal sort of hey you did fine he said dude if you look up tank in the dictionary you won t find my name there that s what i get for displeasing the wow gods now on to other business i was perusing the battlegroups listings yesterday when i noticed that the roleplaying realms were grouped in with the pve and pvp realms since both the arenas and the lfg tools use those listings i wondered why the rp servers were set up that way you d think that the rp servers would be grouped together so that there s not a lot of metagame talk going on but i guess that s not the case for those of you who play on rp realms do you simply suspend your rp for the duration of those instance and bg runs from the perspective of a long time pnp roleplayer it would be very hard to remain in character while everybody else is talking about other stuff yes i know that assumes people are talking at all but still what do you do do you try to remain in character do you even bother should the rp realms be grouped into their own separate battlegroup to preserve their identity one last item i swear and then i m done for the day the last couple of runs through halls of stone i ve noticed a couple of interesting things dbm no longer provides a countdown in the protect bran encounter and there s an aoe that happens after the archive voice says that things are fine for the former it s an add on so i m not surprised too much about that as for the latter at first i thought it was a debuff that someone had not paid any attention to but during yesterday s run the healer exclaimed wth is that and he immediately died did anyone see anything he demanded i was at full health the

writer of this blog the one who loves his dk tank and has some old fashioned love for his long suffering warrior tank the same one who isn t sure what to do with creating a toon to run through low level instances with yeah i know he could do a pally tank but he has one of those and he s not thrilled with him he already has a warrior so why not be a big bear butt tank okay i know one reason he d have issues the night elf in general aside from that however druid tanks hold their aggro quite well thank you very much and i have to admit i ve got a lot of respect for the druid tanks i ve pugged with no i m not suggesting he hang out as a tree that s not his style but a bear yeah i can see that posted by redbeard at 3 36 pm 4 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to

email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels gear the wow life tuesday may 18 2010 hardware review i have a new toy i just recently purchased a new mouse as my old one was on the fritz i went all out this time purchasing something that would enhance my game play and give me more readily available buttons for macros i just recently started getting into the rated arenas and found out how nice it would be to set a focus target and have macros scripted to do things to my focus target and not have to worry about manually swapping targets i asked some guild members what sort of mouse they use and what they would recommend the answer came back razer naga so as per usual before dropping a chunk of money i did some research to find out if it all 17 buttons will be worth the money i found a world of warcraft player that actually has become sponsored by razer and has started making videos about how it s increasing his game play and giving out free equipment to viewers it s kinda cool and amazing that he actually got sponsored talk about a dream job i have now had about a week of play time with the mouse and adjusting to the feel of the very sensitive laser as well as the plethora of buttons has been fun my hand is very comfortable resting on this mouse and i don t get cramps after long gaming sessions as i used to with my old mouse logitech g5 i m still trying to figure out how to best use all of the new buttons but it s giving me something to toy with and in the long run i feel will help out the gaming experience and it has 17 buttons this thing has so many buttons that in the little packet of papers included are little rubber pads you can stick on to the keys to help train yourself and develop muscle memory how crazy is that ascetically it s a very pleasing mouse it just looks nice the symbol on the palm sorta pulses and the mouse wheel having it s own light is just well it s gaudy but it looks nice and i am very pleased as i mentioned before with the way my hand rests on the mouse the left and right click have sort of a channel where you fingers rest and even the third finger has it s own spot to rest off to the right of the mouse sorry pinky you still get to dangle but not uncomfortably so posted by deftig at 2 31 pm 3 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels

facebook share to pinterest labels news friday may 14 2010 halfway houses i occasionally get strange looks when i m putzing around in the barrens or tirisfal glades working on low level quests i swear that some people must think that i m the reincarnation of don quijote or that i m banished by my guild into doing some sort of bizarre penance or something before i m allowed back into raiding passing through tarren mill after having completed a quest from the hinterlands i was accosted by a 20ish hunter loitering around the bat handler dude yr an 80 he shouted lol yeah i replied i noticed u shouldn t be here i m not going to be i said and took the flight path to light s hope chapel that didn t hold a kobold s candle to the crowd that gathered around when i was in the orc troll starting area working on quests i finished a quest and left quint standing around afk for a moment when i returned there was a crowd of about eight to ten l1 l5 characters surrounding my pally okay i thought this is weird i mean you just go up the road to orgrimmar and you can see boatloads of 80s around i popped out of afk and one of them asked are u doing the starting zone quests yep y i m working on loremaster oooohhhhh came the collective response yr crazy said one yeah said another a third challenged me to a duel which i declined a fourth chimed in with a that s not hard maybe not but not a lot of people do it i took that as my cue to split to be fair the majority of the time i don t get a reaction at all which suits me just fine other people are doing their business and i m doing mine since i m the oddball high level character in these zones however i do try to make myself available should someone need some assistance on a quest what s the point of achieving loremaster if you don t share your knowledge i ve even had this loremaster mentality creep over into some of my alts my mage who is at l26 dropped into the ghostlands to finally try soloing dhar khan when she found a l21 hunter thinking the same thing i asked the hunter what she knew of the fight nothing this is my first character she said that s fine i replied even though this is an alt i m still fairly new myself we ll do this together i told her i d pull the aggro so we didn t have the entire room on us and then she could let her pet tank attack and take it over the strategy worked sort of i held aggro better than i expected but the net result was one dead necromancer and one happy hunter thanks so much she said you re welcome just so you know you re about to be doing some traveling on the next couple of quests so get ready to meet some of the leaders of the horde cool ah new players oh the title of this post that s simple really i m officially halfway to loremaster i m actually much farther along but i ve only dinged outlands and eastern kingdoms posted by redbeard at 4 46 pm 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels quests the wow life fully converted hello i m mr goodie and i have two shoes i am now the proud owner of three high level alliance characters these last few weeks have been a great deal of fun i m a good guy i m all shiny and crap i can take on an entire group of horde in wsg all by my lonesome ok i ve not tried that but there s got to be some sort of appeal to it as i saw a lot of allies do that when i was horde i ve been noticing and have been discussing with my guild the differences in the two factions and i m terribly interested in how playing one faction seems to sway your you the player and you the character attitude while playing the game it s the small things that you don t notice that influence your game play until you you ve made the change yourself for instance you just click an npc and they don t want to bite your head off instead they greet you nicely and jaina in the new icc dungeon s attitude is completely different than sylvanas well for obvious reasons but the overall impression you get from her is sort of sad they re there to kill the lich king but there s a sort of grief about it like they re still getting over the loss arthas father and the loss of even arthas there s always hope for redemption albeit he s a murderous sod who unleashed his minions and inflicted mass genocide on everything living it s like the alliance has been pushed around by the horde for a while and they re just now getting back on their feet and establishing themselves which should be interesting seeing as the new stormwind king is rather confrontational but back on topic it s interesting to just sit and read trade chat sure there s the occasional asshats that like to troll but the majority of the talk is pretty decent that was not the case horde side i was absolutely boggled the other day by trade chat as a matter of fact somebody asked a somewhat noobie question and got a real answer almost immediately i think this carries over to pug groups as well i ve not seen too much bashing of other players at least not as frequent as on the horde i m looking forward to jumping into the leveling group of players in the lfd and really seeing if my observations hold true posted by deftig at 1 05 pm 4 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels alliance wednesday may 12 2010 class attachment so as we re nearing the next expansion i ve had a nagging feeling lately to finish leveling my warrior currently he s level 73 this guy originally started out as a level 29 tauren warrior who was a beast in the level 29 bracket this was back when having a twinked character was just becoming popular i did so much warsong gulch with him that he earned the rank of sargent in the old ranking system while my main character was a stone guard my point being the warrior has been around for a while but has never been at max level and doing end game stuff i ve always had a sort of fondness for warrior tanks as being a squishy rogue raiding molten core i was amazed when our main tank could take up to two of the giants at the same time and not only that but watching old pvp...
