Accidentally Achieving Things Since 1984

accidentally-achieving-things-since-1984

Quite by accident, I ended up with a few upgrades last night. TCE hit up Gruul’s, Mag’s and Lurker last night. I tagged along for Gruul’s and Mag’s, and ended up picking up: [Demon Stalker Greaves] and [Demon Stalker Harness], which gives me all 5 pieces of my Tier 4 set (though I don’t wear the shoulders–they sit in the bank).

More PvP, and all the crap that goes with it

more-pvp-and-all-the-crap-that-goes-with-it

My current project is getting my priest some shiny “welfare” purples. I figure, since my favorite talent build for her is, essentially, a PvP healing build, I might as well put it to good use. I’ve got a fairly extensive PvP gear wishlist written down for her (and, bonus: it’s all pretty!), and have been working lately to acquire some of the items. At the moment, I’m focusing on getting her some of the Vindicator’s Mooncloth stuff, since that won’t be short-changed when Season 2 drops to regular honor, and also because those slots happen to be the ones most in need of upgrading.

The more I PvP, though, the more I notice the same trends of behavior, and /boggle at them. Could someone please explain to me the rationale behind complaining during a match? Are these people just hardcore PvPers that wound up having to PuG instead of preform? Or, are they just self-important asshats?

Updates and more updates

updates-and-more-updates

I spent most of today backing up my WordPress database, downloading the latest version of WP (I’m a slacker, so sue me!), and uploading all the changes. I spent some time tweaking widgets, all that good stuff.

That aside, not much to report. I haven’t had much time to play over the past couple days, but I did make it into a Gruul’s run with The Kaldorei on Thursday with my priest.

I like shammies, yes I do; I like shammies, how ’bout you?

i-like-shammies-yes-i-do-i-like-shammies-how-bout-you


First, I would like to thank a special shammy out there for making Arathi Basin both fun and tolerable today.

This shammy almost single-handedly made my tenure in AB on my priest today worth the effort. We laughed, we cried, we danced, we killed stuff… it was beautiful.

Eureka!

eureka

So, with the down-time yesterday during maintenance, I had plenty of opportunity to comb the web for possibilities, and found something I wanted to try out. After backing up my Interface and WTF folders, I installed my new treasure. When the realms went live again, I promptly logged in to check things out. And here’s what I have:

Tuesdays suck

tuesdays-suck

I want very badly to log on and fool around with my UI. When maintenance started this morning, I had just gotten into a “ZOMG! Overhaul!” groove, and then… kaput. Nada. No soup for me.

In an effort to soothe the hurt, I’ll go over a few of my addons. A lot of them have changed since last I talked about them, and a lot have stayed the same.

My UI is a mess, and other news

my-ui-is-a-mess-and-other-news

I’ll start with the “other news” first.

I’ve joined a new guild, The Cutting Edge. The guild’s been around for ages, and are of similar milieu to The Kaldorei, but a bit more focused. Also, the big draw is they raid all on their own, without depending on an alliance with other guilds. While raiding alliances are handy for speeding progression, they also have their drawbacks. My biggest complaint was that whatever problems you have with your own guild are amplified exponentially when you throw into the mix a group of people you essentially have absolutely no control over. (I did have other complaints, but they’re of a more personal nature, and I have no intention of publicly smearing people I just have a difference of opinion with.)

So, I’ve found myself a new home.

Paypal is sneaky indeed

First of all, I’d like to apologize to folks for any inconvenience you may have experienced recently in visiting my blog.

The addition of the “Donate” button on this site was intended to be rather subtle. It was my intention to simply insert the button at the bottom of the navigation menu, out of the way, to allow anyone interested in doing so the opportunity to donate a small contribution to help with the upkeep of this site if they so chose, but could otherwise be easily ignored.

Since the re-design of the site, I’ve received a few notes from folks describing errors they’ve encountered while trying to post comments. Specifically, that upon clicking the comment link, they would instead be taken to the Paypal donation page, and left unable to leave a comment.

As a result of these notifications, I’ve removed the Paypal button entirely in an attempt to determine the issue at hand, and to return functionality to the site in the meantime.
