Anyone get a Beta code? Thoughts and input on the new talents? Rolling a Death Knight once it's installed, or going to do some quests in Northrend? Think Achievements are totally asinine?
I think I'll be respeccing my shaman to elemental/enhancement and having fun leveling again first.
Started leveling a pally a few days ago, currently level 43, I'll probably be playing this through WotLK, definitely going towards holy. Once I get to 70 I'll just be farming money on my rogue to get defrosted/epic mount for the paladin.
I'm shocked with some of the major changes they're making....
I'm really REALLY looking forward to Earthliving Weapon...MY resto shaman will be more uber than she already is. :3 Of course...I can't LEVEL as resto....by the time i hit 80 the cap will be like, 685736 or something crazy like that. ><
I will not be playing WoW ever. ;)
Just got Oblivion and I'm in love.
Yeah, I went 60-70 mashing chain heal and instance grinding. Even now, soloing daily quests takes forever. Windfury Totem getting the axe is kind of depressing, but the new Windfury 20% haste buff, stacked with Bloodlust and Drums of War and wowholyhaste. I need to gear up my shaman and get my druid leather replaced with the quickness. :aimsad:Quote:

I liked the idea of Achievements, until they said "there will be some that can't be gotten unless you got them way back when". Totally killed the idea for me.
Yes, thanks for completely removing totem twisting with that. Whiny smurfin' rogues and arms warriors. :aimmad:Quote:

I was enhance from 10-70, and then I immedeately specced resto, with all the quest rewards I'd been saving...then got pulled into Mag's like 10 minutes after I leveled. LOLQuote:

My mage needs Magtheridon for the title like a fat kid needs cake. Of course once I get on the final step of the Trial to kill him, the opportunity doesn't come back up again.
I'm not familiar with this, but how much competition does this game have from The Lord of the Rings Online or Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures? :p?
OVER NINE MILLION ONLINE says my box of the game, but it's probably spiked way past that. AoC's an incomplete game by what everyone says.
They made an announcement a few months ago that they have 10 million subscribers now. :PQuote:

P.S. And ignore all my "Ands", I just realized how often I used it and I'm not going to edit it all at midnight, I'm too tired for that.Quote:
Zonk is reporting that the Warhammer Online team has decided to keep their launch deadline firm. Unfortunately, in order to do so, they are pulling quite a few things from the game. Four of the six capital cities are being removed, as well as four of the character classes (two of which were considered the primary "tanking" classes for their race). The team emphatically claims that this has nothing to do with EA. Does this hurt their chances for success more than simply delaying the launch date?
Yeah, seems like WoW's still king of the mountain.
I just did Hyjal for the first time ever.....I was terrified!
How bad is it that I need to do the heroics for the title...? >
I think I'm going to take my hunter and shaman into WotLK and still playing. Hunters are getting amazing buffs come expansions and enhancement shamans are just fun as hell to play, plus it makes for a good compliment to the rest of my 5-man group if we get together and start playing again (Warr, Hunter, Priest, Rogue, Enh Shaman). I'm not sure how I feel about leaving my mage, rogue, and druid behind though.
Are these the most popular current Mmorpg's?
World of Warcraft
Eve Online
The Lord of the Rings Online
Guild Wars
Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures
City of Heroes
City of Villains
Everquest II
Tabula Rasa

Which two rpg's in Usa currently challenge WoW for supremacy? I'm not familiar with it. I may try a Mmorpg in a few years. I played 30 hours of FF XI and never played WoW(but I wanna demo 10 hours soon of it). :)
I don't think there is anything that really challenges WoW at the moment.
Agree'd.Quote:

I am a big MMORPG guy, and will probably take my level 70 pally into WotLK just to see the new content. So, maybe if anyone needs a healer or something let me know! :)
As far as anything contesting WoW, I thought Age of Conan had potential... but Funcom smurfed that all up. A -very- incomplete game and they totally failed to follow through on any content or to even fix any of the most prominent bugs in it since launch. I was with it from day one, and have watched it go down hill.
Camo? They took that out.Quote:

You guys should just read the beta forums, you'll get pure facts and able to witness all the testing/bugs/changes from official sources.
WoW Forums -> Shaman Discussion
Just a random link to the forums, you should know how to navigate them.
Well, there is a new Fury (Or was it Arms) Talent that lets them hold a two handed weapon in one hand, so you could dual-wield two two handed weapons.Quote:

Depends the class you level. You'll have a tough time if you start off as a warrior, very gear dependent and rather difficult to solo multiple mobs. Druid, Hunter, and Rogue are the easiest classes to level in my opinion. Basically, you'll start off in a small little village, get sent on some quests to fetch x amount of y item, kill x amount of y monster, go to a cave and kill some evil guy, get sent to large city. Around level 10-12 (Horde anyway, not sure on when Alliance gets their first dungeon quests), you'll get sent off with four other people to do some group quests in a dungeon. Kill some difficult monsters, a few bosses, and get some decent equipment.
Here is a pretty well-rounded guide for those new to the game.
Looks great! :cool:!

> >; Everyone has different goals in WoW. Mine is to have a rogue for 2 years and never make it to level 70. Why? Because attacking newb towns is massively more fun than leveling. So are battle grounds. So is making new characters and seeing how fast you can level them within a certain amount of time. Some days, I just want a lot of gold, so I go farming for it.Quote:

Everything > Leveling.
What's his definition of "fully geared"? Complete epics?Quote:

I rage every time someone in "full epics" thinks that their Merciless set will make them better in SSC/TK.
Also, Titan's Grip's only redeeming quality seems to be BIG WHIRLWINDS, but the sheer mediocrity of a DPS warrior will never make that a viable specialization. Go prot or go home. 8-)
I hate Warrior tanks. I prefer Paladins.
Paladins are the kings of 5 mans, I prefer tanking as a warrior though. Lots more to do than hit consecrate and go AFK.
I finally played World of Warcraft last night. It was kinda good, but I don't know enough about the game. I spawned in "The Abbey" area. I joined a party and went to Shadowglen. The party grew to nine and then dwindled down to five.
It took an hour to get to our destination. After we reached our destination five of us were getting on a ship, but one person didn't make it in time, Funpickle. I couldn't leave him so I ran off and jumped off the ship while it was moving! It was like an epic scene from the movie. I don't know what happened to the others but I can message them. I set my character to follow Funpickle and I went to sleep. I woke up and Wow had crashed with an error message.
I stayed on for like 4 hours, because I wanted to get to the destination. What should I do in the game? I'll try later today.
I kept getting duealed by Catscratch, and Dalarin was another character, I suppose there are to many players for you to know these people? Lilgz and Leorrissia and Nevyn are some more players there. :)
It's not impossible for us not to know them, depending on your server.Quote:

But Catscratch kept dualing me! She kept hitting me and I was still learning how to walk properly. I jumped and stuff, I ended up defeating her later though.
I'll sign on now! :)
Because the majority of the things I do are 5 mans and every class I play save one has CC potentials, I tend to prefer Paladin tanks. However, warrior tanks are just fine and are even better for a good chunk of situations. Druid tanks are imbeciles.Quote:

It seems like i get online to do my dailies and before i know it, i'm in a 25 man god knows where.
I got pulled into SSC last night, won a bunch of loot....died once. :p
Raiding is so fun....by bank acount certainly dosent like it though.
INTO THE WATER
SPOUT SPOUT CLOCKWISE SPOUT
I actually havent done lurker yet. I did Tidewalker and Fathom Lord though....
I got roflpwned on Fathomlord. :p
I've never tried Fathom Lord. The fight looks kind of chaotic.
It was. My job was simple..heal the pally tank on FL while everyone else took care of his little friends.
My issue was that I got blasted by the AOE he does and didn't heal myself in time, because that guy hits like a train full of trucks. I was so focused on the tank I forgot about myself.
I died, ankhed and died again.
It was so my bad. lol
At least is doesn't sound like you get whooped by Ahune. :(
I never got my frostscythe. :aimcry:
It's only chaotic if a third of the raid doesn't know anything about the encounter. Otherwise it's a pretty straightforward fight. Leotheras is probably the best fight in SSC though.Quote:

But yeah, I havent gotten to try Leotheras yet. I'm hoping to soon though. Though admittedly, SSC is a lot less threatening after you've been stepped on by Archimonde a couple times....
Kael and Vashj are two of the worst encounters in the game. Illidan is the worst though. Archimonde is pretty fun except if you are a decursing class, because that's all you freaking do aside from not stepping in the fire. I think the best encounter I've done so far is Kalecgos.
Ahune was pretty fun. Horrible with most of the groups I managed to get though. Never had a chance to finish him on Heroic, nobody knew how to do him for some stupid reason.
At least if you die on Archimonde, the end comes quickly. You don't necessarily have to keep trying. Lol
I hope they fix hunters!!! I love my hunter for soloing but on PVP and battlegrounds people just ignore my pet and pwn me :(
I'm trying a paladin now. Boy do I miss my hunter's bow!!

Go BM and you can be a REAL huntard. :excited:
I plan to complete one full run of rfc by the time this comes out! :D *flex*
LOL
I HAVE a hunter. I got bored, and rolled a shaman instead.
I alternate my shaman and hunter out, with bits of druid in between. I got really tired of my resto druid though, so now my friend plays it in order to get Gladiator. Hunters and shamans are both equally amazing though. But only enhancement shamans, resto sucks balls. Elemental is just pew pew oom.Quote:

I guess you have to have a certain mentality to heal...A lot of people only do it because they have to. I do it because I like seeing people's hp go UP and knowing I caused it. I like to know that I'm keeping my guildies alive when it comes time. And Chain Heal makes life MUCH easier.
...but I do have an enhancement set that pretty much rocks house. :3 Needs more Windfury....:love:
I'm sorry, it's just that there is one very annoyingly cocky BM hunter in my battlegroup. D:
Who has liek 7k hp and a big red pet, he also always has a rock nearby that he hides behind while his pet chases me endlessly around the map. Oh and did I mention he's a night elf? :barf:
That is recipe for passionate hate from me. :kaoangry:
But yeah, huntards suck. Cheap little bastards.
Yeah, BM is about the most amazing hunter spec, as far as dps in concerned. I have run damage meters and tried it myself. Paired with a well trained Ravager, and a quick bow, the DPS is amazing.Quote:
I personally hate the idea of BM. The draw to hunter for me was to simply be a dwarf with a gun. That is just always sexy. The idea of having to rely on your pet pisses me off. Marksman is a sweet spec, but still, a bit too queer for my tastes. I ended up going survival, and I can raid and pvp like the best of em. As long as I don't run into OP warlocks or an insanely well geared and well played rouge. Either way, I am sure blizzard will continue to lower the hunter's dps to make them more reliant on their retarded pets. I have been wishing for a move called "sacrifice pet" where you grab a sharp object and slit your pets throat and bleed it dry so that you can get a ranged attack power increase.
Shaman are a sweet class too. I have like four on emerald dream, but I have yet to start one on my current server. :/ I have to say though, I am enjoying my prot pally immensely.
I have a druid too...my boyfriend's an incredible drud tank, so he keeps telling me what to do. But I'm leaning toward being a boomkin just for fun. :)
I probably don't know how to play hunter well then :( I depend on my pet a lot!
A pity I don't play it well, because I love having a pet!!!
I love having pets too! :mog: Definitely my favorite part of the class.Quote:

If you're getting mauled in low level BGs it might be epeen stroking twinks that's your problem.
Forget hunters, my third character is now a rogue and omgwtf it's so much fun~! :smash:
He has no epeen!! He doesn't even have rlpeen!! There is nothing twinkish about shadowmelding and putting your huge smelly poophead pet on someone!
Oh and yay for rogues Shay! We run this!! :aimsun:
Play on Draka imo! 8-)
rogues are fun :D and yes draka ftw :P maybe I'll play again sometime :P
[QUOTE=Bunny;2540702]Pvp or pve? :p Cause resto dominates pvp (at least I do :) ) and they get top of the healing meters too, so win win!Quote:

Enhancement PvP was stupidly fun at lower levels. I'd one-shot clothies, run the flag, toss a few heals, and use my dumb engineering gadgets to get me out of sticky situations if applicable.
Lol
Dosen't enhancement at higher levels suck though? That's what I heard: being enhance at 70 in a BG is a BAD idea.
It doesn't suck, no. But it is harder to maintain survival because you have to get into the thick of things. Resto or Elemental are better for BG pvp, imo. Resto never really dies unless they get swamped and Elemental just stands back at max range and throws LB and CL at random alliance/horde.
On the flip side, Resto will find a place in all three brackets of arenas. Whereas Enhancement only really has a place in 3s and Elemental only has a place in 5s.
Regardless, Enhancement is a pretty fun spec all around. It doesn't have the survivability of other classes or shaman specs, but they can do some damage before finally dying.
Bookmarked :love:Quote:

i'd rather not pump out a ton of gold and stuff to sit at level 19 for the rest of my existance and kill people. Sounds like a waste of time.
It's not that expensive to make a low-level twink. Unless you're trying to be like this guy who had a 49 Tauren Warrior with Mongoose.
Being a twink is eezy.
Being a non-twink and still ploughing everyone is not. :excited:
Not a twink.Quote:

It's like buying really expensive pumps and not buying a really expensive dress to go with it. POINTLESS! :aimmad:
I just hit 35 with Lenid recently, so haven't found the time to give him all the new Lv 35 enchants and bonuses that are available. And the intentions were not to be completely oriented in twinking BG, just being real beasty at low levels.
Twinks are usually the highest level in their bracket (19, 29, 39, etc) with the best enchants available. On most PVP servers and in most low level BGs, you'd be hard pressed to do any serious damage without a decked out twink.
OFF THE TWINKING SUBJECT AND BACK TO WotLK.
I'm pretty excited to be fighting with an aspect to then fight AGAINST and aspect. Alexstrasa, aspect of the red flight and protector of life versus Malygos, aspect of the blue flight, regulator of Magic. Nefarion and Onyxia were big, think of ASPECTS the biggest dragons there are! I wanna see how WoW deals with such creatures. If they make them smaller than it has always been told I'm gonna be a little pissed.
Seeing as they are finally adding in two of the five aspects, it makes me wonder when they'll add in some of the others. It's been rumored deathwing may make an appearance sometime, in a patch or something. I'm hoping he comes. And then other people say Ysera will come with the release The Emerald Nightmare (Dream). That most likely will be another expansion though :/
Sure new class and new abilities but i'm a sucker for the WoW Lore.

Can you even find the original Warcraft anywhere? It's probably like trying to find King's Quest...
I've read the war of the ancients trilogy written by Richard A. Knaack. It's about the first time the burning legion came tried to take over. Illidan and Malfurion and such. AND own WCII and III. Have the sunwell trilogy which is a collection of the recent comic book that's based during the recent burning legion invasion. AND have WoW and WoW:BC.
So I know quite a lot ^_^ BUT i'd like to know more. And with Wrath lots of things may be answered. Like the kraus question! What has that consort been up to?!
Wow, I mean, I like the lore, I think it is the best amongst MMOs, but I also see it as overly complicated and lacking simple direction. I would like to see it become more organic, yet purposeful. It is so incredibly entity based and sterile it makes me want to puke at times. Medivh, please.
However, I do really like it. Granted, WoW and lore have not been overly consistent, it is nice to see the regimen being -- at least -- loosely followed.
Back on twinks, learn2play. Real men wear green. Green tights.
Also, as far as huntards goes, if you want to avoid the huntard strats, I tend to play with a 00/31/30 build. This gives me great CC and dps for raids, and large amounts of utility with the best of damage. My crit % is over 35% base. I tend to hit like a truck and use my pet mainly as target practice. Sending him after those loofers that stay on the outside of fights cause they have no real gull to join. Scavengers meet Ravagers! With muh spec, I have been out DPSing mages and fall just short our RIP warrior whom completely has me out geared. I easily out damage pure marksmen specs - easily.
My brains have me set for beyond Gruuls. My gear however has me in Gruuls atm.
In your guys' opinion, how does gear effect the particular class type when it comes to endgame? I'm raiding Hyjal/BT in 2 pieces of t4 still, and don't seem to have any diufficultiy being top 3 on healing (as a shaman). The other healers FAR outgear me.
WoW is a gear game, and to that there is no real question. As far as healing and DPS goes, there is lenience for sure. When you play a Shaman, your are going to be high in the amount healed because the class actually specializes and excels in this are, especially in raids. Shaman are a bit unchecked too, so they are an amazing class.
I am geared for Kara only, and I still pass on gear in gruul's because my gear is per my spec and play style, that is the most important thing. Know your character. The reason my DPS is so high, is because of my high crit chance! So there are certain armors that may look better, but just do not mesh with my chracter well. I have yet to really play with the teir 4+ gear though. Not entirely interested yet.
Anyways, as far as healing goes, I put it in this order: Circumstance(Raid vs group style)->Class->Talents->Gear
I say this cause my gear may be low, but I can out dps and pvp most other hunters in better gear - unless they have the sands of times ammo. :) I Strongly attribute this to a solid and class knowledgeable talent build.
Nothin' wrong with keeping the two piece T4 bonus.
@ bipper
There's always Magtheridon and ZA too. :)
Guys, hey guys. I like how in the 51-60 AV bracket alliance always loses. Always. My third alt needs a wolf, thanks guys. :D
Alliance loses every BG. Because most of them are horrible at pvp.
Alliance vs horde is incredibly off balance. Don't even get me started on the balance factor.
Thank God that they finally moved the horde back where they should have been spawning in AV.
But yeah, horde is pretty much easy mode. Easy quest layouts, easy to get to dungeons, better racials up and by far, and horde instances always produce better phat lewtz. We always skip our own and go up to Shadowfang keep, crawl, and others. The horde just seem to have a natural tenacity to work better together - where as the alliance has so many idiots spamming their 4chan disease on /bg. My hordie sees this, but not nearly as much.
Also, it seems like a lot of hordies are bitter alliance transplants who have more experience and know what they are doing. It is kinda of a running joke, that everyone's first toon is alliance, their best is horde. I just have a certain affinity for my dwarfs.
On my battle group AV belongs to alliance and EotS is a toss up. AB and WG are horde territory.
AND BACK TO LORE MISTER BIPPER! You are jut looking at the most recent history, go back to the first war :D
Also... i'm leveling a mage >.>
AND, i'm going to blizzcon. I want a polar bear mount. TOTALLY SERIOUS.
...Truth. xD Blizzard is just trying to make it obvious that horde > alliance, that's all. 8-) Atleast alliance has FPs all over the entire world.Quote:

I have been a warcraft fan since the first game. I really did enjoy the first war, the second one got a little more serious, and then the third happened. I like what they did, but they just seemed do feel like they got a bit carried away and compromised an elegant storyline for a rushed and very disoriented dysfunctional factional system.Quote:

I'd rather have the inflatable Frostmourne myself. <3
I wanna go.... :(
I agree, I hate all orx... except Thrall! And I'm horde!Quote:

I love orcs, they're so cute and fat and short and balding! ): Only male ones though. :drool:
But trolls are my favourite guys! :kaolove2:
Also, in my first battlegroup, horde always won AV. No exceptions. Always.
Now after server transfering, we always lose. :aimsad:
No i meant the first war as in first burning legion war xD Not the warcraft games themselves, the history. Queen Azshara, all that jazz.
I want a bubble hearth toy xD
Come to Draka Ki Ki <3 We can AV togetha!Quote:

I just want to punch arathas in the face. In fact, when I get there, I am sure my buddies will let me go in unarmed and do just that. It should end sadly.
*battlerez*
Lol
You should record it so we all can see, bipper. :D
I can say somthing very very few people can say: I have NEVER lost an AV battle and before you go spouting "you prolly havent played it much" I have, many many times lol.
I haven't lost an AV match on my rogue yet. 8-) Oh yeah, wolf got woo!Quote:

Did anyone buy the advance release thingy ? I saw it for sale already
I did not, but I saw tons of people with the new vanity pet for the 2008 Olympics and think it's adorable. Not even on wowhead yet, so I can't link it. :( It's a baby Chinese dragon acquired through winning a BG.
Oooo! I saw it too, want it!!!
Shameless thread bump.
So that +haste to gloves enchant my soon to be Enhancement shaman gets from leveling goggles and bombs is pretty sweet.
WoW Forums -> New engineering recipes! (WotLK)
Guess I need to play my paladin again. :(
Ooo new engineering recipes :love: Love those! I have the cutest mechanical dragonling!!!
necro
November 13th release date.
Got me the cutest pet on brewer fest on Orgrimar: a wolpertinger :love:
I dunno if I'll get WotLK. I thought the last expansion sucked and whenever i get a character to 60 i lose all desire to progress with it. It would be nice if they still had some pre expansion servers. but i guess that would be complicated
Awww come on, BELFs rule and Dranae aren't so bad either.
blood elves LOL
disregard that my mage is one
There are no male Blood Elves, just females and pretty females.
Yeah, male BELFs look a bit girly :D
I already have a 70 UD mage and a 70 UD rogue, both are in the Horde side. Both have good epics (T6+badge gears). It's hard to say which character to level to 80 first. After considering for a while, I've decided not to check out the new expansion, since I've already quit several months ago.
I play WoW again. I should buy this when it comes out.
Mages are supposed to be insanely fun in the expansion from what I've heard. Rogues are about the same as they were in Vanilla WoW/BC.Quote:

Storytime, go.
why bunny ? did you hate the new stuff ?
Is there a specific server most of the EoFF players play on? I realize there is a thread at the top of the page, but that is so outdated it's not even funny.
Anyway, I'm going to be coming back to WoW to prepare for WotLK, I was planning on trying out Alliance this time with my girlfriend, let me know if any of you guys are alliance and need some new members. :D
I had 3 70's on horde, so I'm experienced, too. (she had 2)
Draka Horde pretty much.
No interest in continuing. I may come back once the expansion actually hits, but until then it's just a waste of money.Quote:

They have always hit like trucks, where have you been?
12-15k burst within the duration of their HoJ is not what they were capable of. The difference is like being hit by a 2 seat ford pickup and an 18 wheel semi.Quote:

It may not be what they were once capable of but the entire system was changed and upgraded with the expansion, things are going to deal more damage faster. That's kind of how games and MMOs in general work.

Um, first off.. I'm not a feral druid, nor am I a druid. Second, get over what? These are level 80 talents in the game, it's "balanced" around level 80, I honestly don't care how OP a class is right now. Yes I understand Lekana is a druid, but you basically replied to me.Quote:

And Warriors walkin around dual wielding two handers? awesome! and Thunderstorm on my Shaman pwns.
What I could do without though is all the server crashes and glitches now :)
That kinda sounds like a complaint about ret paladins to me. To which, I say, get over it. The same complaints were raised when Burning Crusade replaced Vanilla WoW. Ret paladins haven't changed all that much, they are still able to output high amounts of damage in a short amount of time. That is what the spec was designed to do.Quote:

Why do you insist on debating this when I clearly just told you I don't care, and that the game isn't balanced around level 70? THEY ARE OP RIGHT NOW. Why? Because we're not 80. Come on, man, this isn't hard to figure out.Quote:

WotLK Beta (US-English) Forums -> ZOMG RET!
Now will you stop it?
Yeah, you really sound as if you want to stop debating and like you don't care. Protip: People who don't care usually don't make pathetic attempts to get the last word while simultaneous making it clear that they "don't care".
Congratulations.
Thank you for attacking me personally instead of attacking my facts that you still have failed to counter.Quote:

I do not see where Ghostcrawler agrees with everyone, but I am not going to waste time wading through 9 pages of content just to debate with someone that previously made it known that he had no intention of carrying on said debate. In his initial post, he states that the "team" does not think ret paladins are suffering from any intensely overwhelming issues in terms of PvE or PvP damage output and that the damage upfront may be a problem that they are taking into consideration. He also goes on to state that some changes will probably occur, but as we all know, probably is not a definite answer.
Also, so you know, I do not play the Beta. I have no intention of playing the beta and I doubt I will ever play World of Warcraft again. I do, however, continue to look up things that are being released about it, just in case something sparks my interest enough to venture back into the game.
There, you got your wish-slash-non-wish. Are you happy or unhappy about getting your way?
The point of insulting me was? It simply makes you look bad and has no effect on me.Quote:

All I need to say to those paragraphs is this: Divine storm is no longer holy damage, hot-fixed within 48 hours on LIVE servers.
Thank you.
Makes me look bad to who? My millions of fans watching this 'debate' occur? Me insulting you has only one effect one me: it makes me laugh.
How exactly does that one sentence counteract all of my arguments? Since I'm not in game, maybe you can link me some information on this hotfix of yours? Both wowhead and wowwiki show it still doing holy damage. MMO-Champion shows similar results.
So.. let me get this right, you're laughing at your own jokes..? Um, okay. :rolleyes2Quote:

There. Now that I've given you proof, twice, that they're nerfed, there is no longer a reason to reply to you in this post unless it's about another matter.
Oh wow you two. I was just saying it they were slightly OP now. I was OP when TBC came out. They'll fix it :/ Seppuku stop fishing for a fight. Bunny ignore him. Sep... STOP FISHING FOR A FIGHT bunny would eat you.
BACK TO NEW STUFF!
The demon form is cute for locks :3
Yes, yes, that always helps end flamewars. Try reading the argument before going all biased and sticking up from what appears to be a friend.Quote:

I hate bunny wtf xD Please sep, why are you getting so riled up? I wasn't saying like OMG OP NERF THEM THEY SUCK! No I was saying they hit hard. Thanks for trying to defend me. But don't get all angry over little stuff. This isn't the wow forums. If you want to flame go there.
Did you even bother reading what I said? My first comment was just a silly comparison between trucks and damage, he's the one who insulted me first, and continued to do so, willingly, and you randomly come here saying I was the one trying to fight?
Please, look again and read carefully.
Honey I read it. That's bunny. It's what he does. You shouldn't take too much offense to it.
Huh? I honestly don't care about him, her, transgender, whatever it may be, it's the comment you made. Plus, I know damn well what kind of person they are, I'm not new here, you know. I also know what kind of person you are, as well.Quote:

You simply stirred up what had ended, I was not planning on replying until I saw your hypocritical reply. I say that because you claimed I was trying to start a fight, and yet you posted in response to me in an inappropriate way.Quote:

I think this is applicable.
also MMO'S SUCK
The arguing stops here. I don't want to go back and read through this whole thread to find out exactly whats going on, so this is a blanket all of you stop arguing.
G.N.E.R.D Rage!
It's so useless. n_n Oh no... I hope Seppuku doesn't try to debate/argue with me for having an opinion!!!11 D:Quote:

god damnit tuh that was getting good.
Oh well it was still great while it lasted!
I've been running around exploring to get all the new achievements. It seems I always missed one little section on each of the maps :mad:
I have never seen such pointless things as a gamer. I see people doing achievements and stuff for things that give NOTHING. Why do Molten Core and AQ just for a stupid achievement?
Only the ones that give tabards, mounts or titles are worth getting. -_- srsly
This is the most depressing thing you will ever experience.
DAMN DOLO!Quote:
