Oh... if you want a laugh, I rushed to the aid of some people being attacked by a giant bear. But I couldn't seem to attack the bear and it killed them all.

The Druid thought I was very funny....

I play as Gorbachev (Tauren Shaman) on Bonechewer.

I've got a guild basically built from the ground up by friends and with no recruiting or other such powergamer bullshit we've managed to become quite good. Magmadar should die tomorrow We wiped to that bastard dog at 13% last week.

I didn't name the guild My original guild name was KathleenTurnerOverdrive until we merged with some other friends.

Looks good.

I like the game. The only real problem is trying to stay away from the lunatics and children. One new guy in our guild is always wanting people to walk him through quests and has a bit of a sad attitude. Mind you, he's only in his mid teens, so it pays to be tolerant.

Still, I've macroed quite a few good manners statements and emotes (e.g. *****, at your service /bow) since people seem to react well to exaggerated courtesy. It's surprising – I thought there would be more asshats around.

Is the auction house always cheaper than vendors for buying armour and stuff?

I've been up all night smacking the crap out of everything that moves.

My favourite game at the moment is to walk around until I see some poor sap trying to pull some gnolls or orcs one by one and running my character in to all of them, commencing a rapid dismemberment of the lot and then leaving with a brief "enjoy the treasure and have a nice day".

Every ****ing thing in 1.6 is broken.... where to start.

Cannot attune for BWL because the quartermaster is borked on our server (he can be hit but he can't attack and stays at 100% health).

Once you're in BWL, the first bosses are bugged so bad they can be killed with 20 people. Also, the door after them will not open.

Mage sheep is horribly bugged. If you resheep someone they can cast as a sheep. It looks pretty funny to see a sheep throw an ice bolt at someone though.

Ragnaros is invincible because the sons spawn every 30 seconds now, but I think they've hotfixed this one already.

Sniper rezzing fix basically ****s the entire raid if you wipe in certain places, like vs Domo. And even then, the poor poor warlocks have to summon so much now.

Looting in AV puts everyone in combat. EVERYONE.

You can't go out of combat in duels now. This basically screws hunters (no traps) and rogues (no restealth).

I'm sure there's more that I missed.

I have a question for the WoWers.

Is Battlegrounds fun? If so, and you have played Guild Wars PvP, how do they compare?

I haven't played that yet. It seems to me that it attracts the unsavory portion of the population.

Many hunter abilities are now bugged and mages are in similar situations. Most warriors and warlocks seem to be upset with the changes.

I play on Warsong, Horde, a lvl60 Tauren Druid. Anyway, as Warsong had to be restarted multiple times we got a bit ticked off with our Molten Core raiding being disrupted and decided to have some fun....

That is around 30 lvl3 pinked hair gnomes raiding the Grizzled Den. And one confused dwarf. We found a lvl7 elite, killed it, and declared the Grizzled Den raid a success.

Then we went to Ironforge


And begged give us plz gold...
http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/8083/lagforge6hm.jpg
(I think we got 8 gold 0.o)

Since we were all on vent it was all very co-ordinated, we logged out simultaneously. I hear one of our members spammed them with some colorful message like "STAY THE **** OFF WARSONG!!!", because rumor has got out that Warsong is a balanced pvp server (no huge population imbalance) and now every nub and his dog is rerolling on warsong, causing giant queues, lagging MC raids and causing random server resets. That is just a theory, but you might want to stay off warsong anyway.

What can I say, my guild has it's comedians .

Altough I am pretty good at wiping MC raids in rather comical ways... due to time zone issues I'm sometimes half alseep during our raids. Sometimes that becomes fully alseep, for some reason when i go to sleep with my hand on the mouse, I hold down both mouse buttons. My toon obediently runs forward, obliviously, right into a pair of Molten Giants, who may or may not agro on the rest of the raid.

A few minutes later I wake up (it's hard to sleep with people yelling on vent.) Huh? Where am I? Why are there mobs on my corpse? Uh why is everyone dead?

Err... lag?

I don't have any problem with that. I just prefer PvE since you can PvP pretty much when you want if both sides are willing, and that stops the immature idiots from doing nothing but "noob ganking". I just don't have time for them, and if they don't want to play on my server, that's great... good riddance.

Well I spent the evening getting owned at WSG. I guess I didn't do too bad since I killed more than I died, but the Shamans are ridiculously overpowered and I have good reason to believe that the horde side was composed of alts of lvl 60s that are purposely held at lvl 30 for WSG. That's kind of lame. There should be a limit on how many times under 60s can do it at each level, otherwise new players just end up getting smoked without much chance to learn.

A pity the Alliance side tends to be straight pickup. The Horde always seem better organized.

Suffering from ads?

If you think shamans are overpowered you should play against competent paladins. Getting killed by shamans is one thing, but try being unable to kill the other team, there is this alliance guild who fields a raid of about half pallys for WSG, then they grab the horde flag, take it back to their flag room, and ALL camp in the flag room (obviously the horde thieved off with the ally flag too). When the horde tries to break them the pallys just bubble and heal the warriors, usually the horde can kill like a mage and hunter but the plate wearers are too much to take down. They are probably on vent or something too and a co-ordinated team is way hard to beat.

It's just frustrating. Everyone eventually just /afk's out, but then new players come in, and get killed by the camping pally team, and then get frustrated and afk out and new players come in... honor farming at it's ugliest.

Yeah, that sucks. Honor farming should be wiped out. It's just silly. The problem with these games is that morons will just abuse the game mechanics instead of playing the game as it was intended to be played. You should never be able to log out of a BF and they really should stop the "eternal level 30s" I'm not going to bother again until I hit 36 or so. I imagine it will be less of a problem.

Then again teamwork is what matters. I guess it sucks if you just want to have the odd game.

I'm a L60 Paly, and I agree it's damn hard to kill me.

Though it's hard for me to kill people, too.

Though as a duo, my BF is a 60 mage and we're pretty ruthless together. I keep him alive and he rips everyone apart.
