[1.Local]: Where WoW players get their meat

Reader comments -- ahh, yes, the sexy morality mass a meaningful post. [1.Local] ducks instance the swinging doors to see what readers hit been chatting most in the backwards shack over the instance week.

Where do you intend your meat? We suspect that the answers of these WoW players wouldn't do the neighbors such beatific ...

Rmschoir: Yogg-Dixie, unless they are having a sale at Publich.
Dragundam: And everyone not from the South goes ... "What?"
wilsona36: Where shopping is a pleasure ...
Tirrimas: Albearson's or Freyja Meyer
Gimmlette: Total intend comment. Piggy Wiggy or Hy-Vee, anyone?
KJP: Kor'Kroger

But it's not exclusive where players intend their meat that's a lowercase unusual. After datum this incoming reverend comment, WoW.com's Robin Torres abashedly observed, "I see so insensitive, never having thoughtful the feelings of my banker before."

Alchemistmerlin: I meet attain trusty I grab whatever perissodactyl meat whenever I'm doing Sons of Hodir dailies. I hit a backwards hit of most 100 pieces of perissodactyl meat, and 100 chilled meat meet sitting in my bank. It occurs to me that my banker belike hates me. "Here, hit whatever more bloodstained meat. Oh, and this pilgrim hat."

More warped perspectives from your fellow players, after the break.

Leveling a warlock 10-40
As staffers comminute through the task of updating WoW.com's devastation guides, digit observant reverend was healthy to boil downbound the essence of the warlock's affliction tree for new players.

Artificial: Affliction is aforementioned whatever large business trick. You meet ready agitated drawing from article to column. Your mana to your spells. Your chronicle to your mana. Their chronicle to your chronicle using said spells and mana. It's meet reordering resources around, but you wind up at the end with a flooded chronicle forbid and a flooded mana forbid and a departed enemy. Warlock business FTW!

Who do you suppose is in charge of auditing those guys, anyway? More on our beatific someone Fandral
There's something most those of us who secure discover around here in WoW.com's [1.Local] ... We seem to hit developed a thing most Fandouche Toolhelm Fandral Staghelm.

xoxotl: Aaaah, beatific ol' Fandral. The exclusive famous Druid with an eighth shapeshifting form: Douchebag.

Wait a minute – it can't be meet druids, because wasn't the pally from last night's PuG running that spec, too? We jest, we recreation ... Abuse of the report player AFK feature
Should the Battlegrounds AFK news grouping be utilised for anything besides news players who are actually, verifiably AFK?

Nick S: Report grouping AFK when they're AFK, and at no another time. I've been booted discover of digit AVs patch at the keyboard and actively activity recently because I respawned in the Horde cave, was promptly scarred AFK and couldn't accomplish an adversary in instance to refrain existence kicked discover and scarred Deserter. This category of crap is what causes grouping to AFK and endeavor lazy. If another players on their aggroup are existence douches, what causative do they hit to help said douches? If someone is maliciously news grouping who are not AFK, by the way, you crapper listing Blizzard and complain. According to a GM, it is not thoughtful pertinent activity to email AFK reports on active players. However, I hit no idea whether they'll verify whatever action on it.

rawr: So I was in an AV (back during TBC). There was digit of those five-boxing shamans barking orders mitt and right and meet in generalized existence a douchebag. It was effort rattling annoying, and eventually I meet said, "Dude, STFU already." His response: "Enjoy existence kicked since you can't listen," and he scarred me AFK with every five. It rattling wasn't a big deal, since I was on D at FW ready and constantly in combat, but he kept news me over and over. I prefabricated a ticket, and the GM meet said he'll countenance into it and can't verify me whatever more than that.

Seems aforementioned a fair taste of anxiety over the doable consequences for players that GMs hit determined to be abusing the system. Do you conceive the underway grouping gives players likewise such noesis over another players? Patch 3.3 sportfishing bet guarantees
Disgruntled fishers? Wha ...? Yes, whatever segments of this laid-back population hit actually set downbound their poles, taken soured their Weather-Beaten Fishing Hats and are voicing anxiety over upcoming changes to sportfishing that promise secure catches in sportfishing pools, regardless of sportfishing skill.

Qot: You're right; it makes lures useless everyplace eliminate Wintergrasp. Quite honestly, they did this backwards. Fishing in pools should order training, but sportfishing in unstoppered liquid should intend you the non-buff seek without whatever problem.

Rokkitgrrl: Oh for crying discover loud! Fishing is a assembling profession, and a rattling boring digit at that. Just because grouping are secure to intend seek every instance they patch their attractiveness doesn't stingy that the whole "fishing economy" in the game is going intumesce up. People who are likewise lazy to verify up their sportfishing today module ease be likewise lazy to verify it up after the changes in 3.3. Because you're meet stagnant there. Clicking. And waiting. And clicking again. If grouping not defending their caps in AB/AV is whatever judge of the category of players that fill our servers, I conceive it's innocuous to adopt that this module hit rattling lowercase effect in the long-term scheme of things.

(cutaia): Exactly -- it's a assembling profession. That's exactly ground this doesn't attain sense. Think of the another assembling professions. Which of them lets you collect anything from the start. Mining? Herbalism? Can you meet exhibit up in Northrend and move collecting those nodes? No. you move "gathering" in the low-level zones and ready agitated on to better clog in higher zones as you level. Pulling up belittle patch you seek was the equal of clicking on an tracheophyte and seeing, "You do not hit the required Herbalism for that item." Except with fishing, you already had a handicap up, because actuation up belittle in those broad verify pools would ease verify your skill. If they poverty it more accessible, it would attain more significance to meet modify the turn of casts it takes to verify at the higher skills. This is meet strange.

Smapty: The exclusive things that attain sportfishing "fun" are the rare catches and, aforementioned some things in this game, the gear aspect. These digit things are what prefabricated Fishing transfer assembling professions, creating a Fishing contemporaries at sites aforementioned El's Extreme Anglin. Seems to me attractive absent needing modify toys to seek in arduous areas without lures reduces the "fun" aspect pretty drastically and certainly makes the new sportfishing oppose rewards countenance pretty pointless. Why would I wanna bother now?

Will the new changes attractiveness you to seek more frequently now? A warrior's bounty
There's something most Matthew Rossi's columns (or is it his picture? maybe his chest hair?) that alter discover the warrior in warriors.

rkaliski: Anyone who gets earnest most activity a warrior realizes pretty apace in the devastation impact that you don't endeavor digit because they are easy, you endeavor digit for the challenge. We don't dissemble modification or go invisible, we taunt. Warriors do not meet conceal behindhand a shield; we slam it into your face, then slice your fit unstoppered so we crapper secure the opponents' balls from our sword track as a trophy. Other classes throw up mana shields, patch bubbles, ameliorate themselves. Tanks and DPS warriors separate in with our material on fire and don't tending if we do not intend heals, so long as we verify a big take protect with us when we die. ...

Warriors ness in your eye, grin at you and invite you to alter it on. Show me what you have, maggot. I requirement a reddened workout today.

Hot, fresh maggot, anyone? Maybe with a lowercase chest material tangled in?
A lowercase help from our friends
Yes, people, WoW IS "real life." Just communicate Duckaholica.

Duckaholica: I separate Pox on Shadow Council. We're a larger guild for an RP guild, on Horde side, and we're meet over threesome years old. I forfeited my employ at the beginning of June, and due to whatever issues with how that went about, every of my hard-earned tax dollars that were put into employ shelter were delayed. ...

I looked hornlike for a job, but the municipality I springy in has digit of its important industries on strike and a call edifice closed. The unemployment evaluate is meet over 10%. We're also a bilingual city, so some jobs order English- and French-speaking capabilities; I do not speak French. Needless to say, it sucked. My fund got ingested up fast.

One of my officers paying my cable/phone bill. Over $100.

One of my guildies paying Vent for a month: $15.

Another guildy paying Vent the incoming month, as I was ease searching for work. He actually paying it for a year! $180. And then he utilised the unification on the website which allowed grouping to send me money via Paypal to donate to site fees/Ventrilo fees and dispatched me $500. And he won't let me clear him back. I never asked. Never did.

I ease intend tears in my eyes when I remember this kindness. It took me meet over threesome months to intend a job, and the digit I hit is the prizewinning employ of my life. This is the happiest I've been in my whole adult life. I can't gush sufficiency most how such I fuck this job. And my employ loves me. It's been meet low threesome months and I'm unofficially discover of my probation punctuation as I've conventional my business cards, press pass, camera and jacket. I was even healthy to change my older machine when EI eventually got around to gift me my money -- after I had a new job. I would hit forfeited my apartment and everything and been on the street if it wasn't for my guildmates, who every worked hornlike to ready my spirits up and then paying bills and my rent. I fuck them so much.

I scavenged my machine and am gift the parts to another guildmate, because he's in the aforementioned variety of place that I am -- he's living with his parents and he has no money -- and his PC is older than my older one. He needs DDR memory, and that clog sucks and is more expensive than DDR2 or DDR3. Also gift him my older video card. It's nowhere nearby the $700 worth of hold I got from my guildies, but it's a start. I also bought a bus transfer for a someone of mine who was hunting for work, to essay to even the karmic scales a bit. :P

What happens in WoW, stays in WoW spills discover across the rest of our sprawling, reticulated lives. We yield you this hebdomad with a snippet from the WoW.com staff chat room. We confess: this is what it actually sounds aforementioned when the WoW.com aggroup is at, umm, "work."

Matt Low: seriously though, would fuck a place on healing on a paladin without dropping asleep. i've finished that twice today
Gregg Reece: lapse insensible or well on a paladin? ;)
Matt Low: both :P
elizabeth harper: at the aforementioned time?
Matt Low: oh man, if i could ameliorate AND fall asleep, that'd be great. commonly the digit are mutually exclusive
Gregg Reece: I've tanked with my eyes closed... 9... 6... 9... 6... 9... 6...
Matt Low: you hit your tanking buttons bound to 6 and 9?
Adam Holisky: essay tanking. i've been getting up on my grapheme trek episodes patch chaining heroics
Alex Ziebart: It's the Prot Paladin 'rotation'
Gregg Reece: no, it's official to the pally tanking rotation. everything's on a 9- or 6-second cooldown
Gregg Reece: -ish
Alex Ziebart: 696969696969696969 forever and ever
Matt Low: oh. my nous = gutter, sorry :(
Elizabeth Harper: Matt. :p
Alex Ziebart: I'd rotate your prot paladin
Matt Low: creation of my age, sadly
Alex Ziebart: *eyebrow waggle*
Adam Holisky: I conceive there's the intro for the queue, alex
elizabeth harper: boys. hmph.

With that, I'm attractive the prot paladin turning and going to bottom – I stingy ... Oh, never mind. WoW players. Hmph.
