New WoW General Discussion Thread 6/8/10

Has anybody else encountered Crithto, a little pug dog that runs around Stormwind, apparently randomly, like his ass is on fire? I followed him around for a while, but he doesn’t seem to have any particular destination in mind, or any “home” location.

I posted a comment under my real name (since it had the Facebook thing there):

“It’s the white George Clinton!”

That should work better.
I really am surprised that Imageshack would do the popup thing; I am disappointed.

:p:p:p:p

Yeah, I am looking forward to playing him again. He likes to blow things up, too, so it ought to be interesting.

It’s buddy. Imageshack is clean.

that’s good to know; I don’t mind signing up, I’ve used them for forever, but would hate to see clickers get spammed. Thanks :slight_smile:

Hey, Tao? Don’t change a thing!

That is one cool toon!

Also maybe I’m the only one this happened to? And maybe it was “lying in wait” because of another site I may have visited?

Anyway, glad I got to spend some time looking at the “cool dude in a loose mood”!:slight_smile:

Thanks for sharing, Tao!

Q

Forgot to mention… Tanus, my Belf, took his first zeppelin ride to Orgrimmar last night.

Sorry, Horde, but lord what a dump!:slight_smile: It even has its own Goblin slum, and as I am now Horde myself, I’m having him explore the place. So far 2 banks, 2 inns, 1 AH (that I have found) and OMG at the NPC’s. Maybe it’s my imagination, but there seem to be more of them than in SW. Can this be?

But still, it was nice to ride that shark-looking zep that I have seen flying overhead in Alliance territory.

Honestly though? Having been used to Alliance for almost three years, I feel a bit guilty with Tanus being Horde.:wink:

Thanks

Q

PS: Oh yeah. I changed Tanus’ hairstyle to the one that makes the ladies all warm and fuzzy!

What does “It’s buddy” mean?

61 year old geezers need to know, Palooka! :slight_smile:

Thanks

Q

I think there are actually at least 4 banks and auction houses: the obvious ones in the Valley of Strength (the area near the front gate), one of each in the Valley of Honor (toward the back of Org), one of each in the Goblin Slums and one of each in the Valley of Wisdom (the tauren area). The ones in Goblin Slums and Valley of Wisdom aren’t very obvious, though - the “bank” in each area is just one NPC standing there, and same with the auction “house”. They’re more of a “banker” and an “auctioneer” just standing around hoping somebody will talk to them.

As to “more NPCs than SW”, I think it just looks that way because in Org most of them are standing around outside, while in SW more of them are inside buildings.

Rik,

Thanks, but wow! (Just wow the exclamation, as if you didn’t already know that, coming from me!)

It’s a tough place to navigate if you’re just used to SW and the surrounding area, which is why I’m going to leave him there and quest in those places.

BTW: I love how the Ogres call us “Humies”!

Don’t know who in Blizz came up with that term, but they deserve a bonie!

Whoops! I meant BONUS!

LOL!

:slight_smile:

Q

Sorry, I thought we were worried about spyware. Imageshack spawns popups something awful unless you’re on IE8+/FF/Chrome. They’re just not malicious.

Yeh. That’s my problem: WoW only works for me on IE7. That must be what happened.

I am sorry if I caused you any worry, Tao.

Thanks

Q

No worries at all; I have FF so I have never noticed popups, and I was worried; I hate linking to spammy sites. glad you got to see the pic, though; that ought to turn anyone off to getting gooshy over that hairstyle. :stuck_out_tongue:

Scroll up, Tao, and see my comment about keeping him just as he is!

Sometimes you just gotta give a character time to build some character!

Know what I mean?:slight_smile:

As far as I’m concerned, please don’t change a thing, my friend!

Quasi

Oh no, I won’t! That look makes me laugh every time I see him, and that’s a good thing :slight_smile:

Woo I made ilevel 329 so can queue for heroics. Course, I’m not going to just yet. I dont even have any Justice point gear yet and im only putting out 5.9K DPS.

My continuing quest for Mysterious Camel Figurines has been fruitless. However, I am making a small fortune off of the Mining I do while I endlessly fly over Uldum, so it’s not all that bad.

Wishing there were more drakes available to we mere mortals who do not raid. There’s the three you can get via Wrath dungeons (Stratholme, Oculus gift bag, Skadi), the one from the ‘I did all the holiday quests!’ meta achievement and the one in the Oracle egg.

Edit: Oh, and the ones you can buy in Shattrath if you rep grind with blah blah blah I forget.

Did an Orgrimmar Grunt just say, “'s Up, 's Up?” to me?

Funny! :slight_smile:

Q

There’s the albino drake, as well, that you get for acquiring 100 companion pets.
