In this old thread, Domokun commented about greeting friends with “Zug Zug”, and ending conversations with “Keepitreal!”.
Well, a few weeks ago, my newlywed wife managed to get me hooked on World of Warcraft. (I resisted as long as I could, but those damn free trials will get’cha every time.)
When the two of us were staying at a motel last week and she asked me to go out and get some ice, I returned with the filled ice bucket and triumphantly announced, “For the horde!”
I still don’t know how many XP I got for that quest.
Lol, one of the ads at the bottom says they will level you to 60 with 600 gold for ‘only’ $395. I never have understood why someone would pay someone else to level them up (i.e. isn’t this supposed to be ‘fun’ and ‘a game’? )
I stopped playing WoW a few months ago, shortly after they released PvP and their queue system which I seriously hate. I might pick it up again when the expansion gets ready to come out or if they ever fix the Warlock class.
Even though the activity that went on after the quest ended doesn’t exactly qualify as combat, you should have looked in your combat log. Now it’s too late, but I guess that’s what happens when you’re busy with That Thing Known As Real Life.
I want to know whom they hire to do the levelling for you. Must be a heck of a cheap source of labor.
(Unless they use 'bots. Which would just be wrong.)
That’s why I play on a PvE realm with PvP turned off. (Of course, now they discourage unbalanced PvP attacks outside of the Battlegrounds by awarding you “dishonorable kills” if you attack someone of a much lower level than yourself, which helps.)
Heh. That’s not as good as the Hearthstone story from the previous thread, but it’s close.
One nice benefit of playing is that I now find myself jogging to get from place-to-place. I always wonder how those WoW characters can do that all day without tiring. (Or without accumulating Bad Smell Points.)
Yeah, I seriously want Goblins to be a playable class, too. But I don’t think they’re a Horde class. Goblins are like Ferengi; all they care about is profit. They’re faction-neutral, and I’d want to play one as such.
I’m guessing college kids earning a few extra bucks. A lot of these kinds of places also sell gold and items via PayPal. I knew a guy playing DaoC that used a leveling service…basically they just camp one spot until the mobs turn grey (i.e. no exps) then move to another spot…hour after hour in shifts. So…no bots (which would get your customers banned if you were caught).
Problem with PvE is it gets boring after a while. I can only do an instance so many times before it becomes not just boring but painful to do it again. Thats the problem with all these kinds of games…the worlds just aren’t dynamic enough, there isn’t enough unique content. Its all cookie cutter quests and wacking X number of mobs to level up. I feel like a rat pushing the bar for a food pellet sometimes…
A lot of the gold farmers and auto-levellers happen to be Chinese. They may indeed be college students but most of them appear to be Chinese. Very well organized and can be ruinous for the game.
My main is a warlock, and I was sort of wondering that myself.
Although in the big patch [1.9] that is coming up sometime soon we finally get some loving - in the form of a soul shard pouch. The pattern that tailors can buy in Gadgetzan makes a 20 slot pouch, and there are 2 dropped patterns that make larger pouches.
Honestly, I would rather they turn shards into a 15 minutes logged and they vanish item. But make you able to get them from anything you kill, and stack to 200 like ammo [and maybe limit you to 200 total] because I destroy shards to make room for drops now and then, and a specific shard pouch loses me 16 bag slots.

True, but you don’t have to use the shard bag if you don’t want it. I also know that some locks carry at least a full bag of shards, so for them it open up 4-12 slots for shards (the other bags are 24 and 28 slots), or free up that space in other bags for loot. My lock friends aren’t too thrilled about it, but one says that at the very least he won’t have to farm shards quite so often, which is a plus however minor it might be.
