I would rant, but the letter Q is on backorder

There has been quite enough screaming and yelling about the escapades of various bloggers (myself included) in the new looking for group feature. Face it, fail pugs make more interesting writing that the ones that go incredibly smooth. In fact there has been so much QQ that they had to ramp up Q production. I guess [...]

Just remember to push in the clutch first

I was busily poking the keys trying to put down what I think Blizzards next generation MMO will be like, and why. Low and behold there comes a ding in my mailbox… apparently a post from a few days ago had received a comment. Needing a bit of a break from the thinking I was doing [...]

Looking forward to the end of the world

Thinking about the future is one thing, actively planning for the unknown is another. That has been taking up a good chunk of my time lately. Planning, plotting, and gathering has been on my list of things to do for a while now. Like a squirrel putting away nuts for the winter, or the ant [...]

CC means Consecrate, Consecrate right?

A few weeks ago I decided I wanted to try my hand at tanking. Low level Pally tanking to be exact. So I rolled myself a baby Pally and threw her some heirlooms. Thus began my adventures in tanking my way to 80. . So far the biggest thing I can say for it is the [...]

Upon further consideration…

Yesterday I put up a rather long post about what I see as some of the reasons for the disparity in the amount of tanks and/or healers available in the game. The post did not draw a huge amount comments, but it did draw some pretty insightful ones. After reading those and doing a bit more thinking [...]

It’s about class, in more ways than one

Lately there have been a ton of posts about the differences between the three major roles (tanking, healing, and Dps). It all started with a guest post over at World of Matticus. As that slowly simmered in peoples heads I suddenly started to see my feed reader positively explode with posts on the subject. Over [...]

Comment Policy

Once upon a time I started blogging about Warcraft. It was not so very long ago really, just under two years. In the beginning I only saw a very few visitors each day, sometimes none at all. Most of those who did wander past were friends or guild mates who essentially treated stopping in, reading, and the [...]

I went shopping like a kid with a stack of gift cards

First of all, thanks to all who those that gave me input yesterday on new alts for next expansion. I have (finally) made up my mind, and figured I would share. Of course, that does not mean I won’t change it. Simply that I have a place to start planning from. . Normally this is the [...]

Random thoughts

In the pre-dawn quiet of my office I often let the head of cauliflower that doubles as my brain go running amok. I might give it a topic, I might not, sometimes I just down a couple cups of coffee and let it go. Today is one of those days.  One of those days where questions [...]

Has another year gone by already?

Thinking about the new year to come, well, that will unfold in its own time. As I stand here looking back towards the year that was I smile. It has certainly had some moments, both good and bad. Taking my que from such esteemed bloggers (and friends) as Kestrel, Tami, Larisa,  Matticus, and Pike, amongst others that populate my feed [...]
