Leveling my Panda... finally

Pandaskully is now 52 as of tonight. I was lvling her with Krypt's Monk. He provided me with instaques and I just poked at stuff. I have no idea how to play a Monk, but I figure lower level roto, CDs and abilities don't really matter, things dies too quick lol.
He's been playing more StarWars and I wanna get my Panda to 90. So I kinda over shot him by 10 levels just on questing while he was doing other things. Besides running dungeons(only with Krypt) I prefer to quest solo. It's faster for me because I know where to go and what to do. As you can see, Ive done it with 10 toons prior. I haven't tried to quest with him and his Monk, but I'm just speaking from previous experience helping friends quest. I get impatient when people are not on the same page as I am. They go afk for god knows what reason and I'm left there to wait on them...
Um yeah, no!
Skully needs to go go!!!!
She don't wait on nobody!!!
And let me explain the next pic. This toon of his was a female Orc Monk... And I was like , um yeah no! you needs to change that. LOL... so he told me to pick a race and a name and naturally... this is what I came up with...
Skullystoy: Male Panda
What?... Pandaskully needed a cuddle buddy. kidding! didnt really think he would agree to it, but he did and I giggled. BUT he might be changing the name... it's OK I got all the screenshots I need already. Proof that Skully's Toy in WoW did exist even if was only for a short while.  <3

Late Thanksgiving post


OK so I took this as a Facebook cover photo for Thanksgiving. First year I spent it solo. Technically I didn't spend it alone. Skype video chat with Jugga (Krypt) made it a less lonely day. However I was completely fine with my solitude.
So I decided to sit at a bounty table in Thunder Bluff and take a screenshot of Skully alone. I had to take the pic quick because once I sat down Dags would disappear. hehe <3 this pic.
Skully is never alone... she always has Dags.

My Sky Golem

I have a wonderful friend in WoW that gave me a Sky Golem as an early Xmas gift.
If you know me, you would know I am very generous with my help. Monetary help as well as physical help. It is a very nice change when someone does this for me.
Ive wanted a Sky Golem for a while now and I've been watching AH prices to wait for them to drop because I'm rather cheap when I decide to buy something for myself.

Krypt knew I'm working on my 200 mount achievement and decided to help me get one more mount closer to reaching my goal. So he bought me this. I love it! Its really neat. just flying around with numlock you can watch it bob and weave while flying and running on the ground is neat to watch as well.
I now have 191 mounts as of this post and still need a couple of mounts from the Blizz Store and all the panthers. When I get closer to the number I need left I will buy the mounts I need to hit 200. Im still a couple away from it. TY KRYPT <3

And that's 10... extremely late


This entry is probably a month late, lol. I finally took my Warrior to 90. I don't know what took me so long, I did enjoy playing her. I didn't have a buddy that tagged along with me this time. She did it all by herself. So now this is yet another toon that will most likely sit until the next expansion :-)

Next to lvl is my darn Monk. In this screenshot she is 34 but last night Jugga and I were playing with our Monks and we ran some dungeons and now my monk is lvl 40. It was fun. things dies quick, he tanked and I poked at stuff. I haaaaate melee.

Empty Lothar

Gothamdeath here is the very first Guild Leader I had back in Lich King.  He transferred all his toons to Lothar and left the game for just under a year. About a week ago I sent him a scroll of resurrection and now he's back.





 A couple nights ago he saw a Warbringer down in Kras. I said I'd come to help. He invited and I got sent to Lothar.
Lothar is extremely empty, I don't know if it's because it was off hours and its an east coast server, but it was eeeeeemptyyyy. So top pic is of 2 moons outside.. just me, Goth and one person, and the one to the right is of the inside of 2 moons.
I know Illidan was waaaaay to packed for me, but Lothar is waaaay too empty for me. Hyjal is just right.

Crying over Alliance!?!?!?

I am going back wards in my WoW book readings. I fully finished Tides of War and now I stared rereading The Shattering. And I'm going into Arthas, or Thrall next, cant decide. anywhos, I came to a part I actually cried on. Aerin a female warrior Dwarf was Anduin's Bodyguard while he was visiting in Ironforge. Quakes and aftershocks hit and Aerin ends up dying. and I fuckin cried!, I fuckin cried over an Alliance death. lols! Im sure I did it several more times while I read Tides of War, but the only time that stands out to me was when Rhonin saved Jaina and sacrificed himself. Those two times the same results occurred, I sit there saying "Why are you crying over an Alliance!?!?!... Quit it! You dont cry over Alliance!!!!"
Ahhhh, it was funny at the time. actually still is to me :-P
(no one reads these anyways, so I didn't feel the need to start off with a "Spoiler" warning at the beginning)

8 AND 9!!!!!!

Cripes, I'm so late with these... I forgot :-)


8th toon to hit 90 was my hunter Mishel. I cant remember if I had company with the lvling, or if I just did it myself. Which I'm pretty sure it was just me. But anyways, I think I hit 90 before I Maxed out her professions because I remember me going to kill some turtles in the Valley of the 4 Winds and complaining about how I wasn't getting a skill point to go up. Oh cripes wait, now I can see her skinning goats on the mountains in Kun lai summit and getting the Profession achievement. But anywhos, so yeah she was my 8th 90.



9th toon to 90 was my druid. I tried Resto for a couple of dungeons with Monk and his cousin Beefy but couldn't get used to it, so I went back Boomkin and left her alone for about half a month or so, then pushed from 87 to 90 in about 3 or 4 days. It wasn't very hard to lvl her, but when I got her to 90 It's like her damage turned to shit, and things didn't die as quick. So I been using her for her herbing and mining in bird form and planting songbells. I loooooove farming in bird form, I have fun just doing that. And I want more Goldz!!!!!  so I better get back to it.

Next to Hit 90 is my Warrior, who is sittin at 87

So much to do

My second day off in a row and I have so much to do around the house and no motivation to do any of it. All I wanna do is play WoW, write my stories and watch some Netflix. lols so sad yeah, shuddup!
I know I'll eventually get my butt up to do it.
Do laundry, clean my bathroom, Write another WoW Adventures story, do some stuff for work, balance my spendings, try to VP cap on Deadskully.  See so much to do. hehe,
Anywhos, now I'm just ramblin', I should get started.

Last guild hopping I will speak of, I swear!

Ok so this is the last time I talk about jumping guilds. Even though I will most likely do it in the future, I will not speak of it here... hehe.
I left that last guild, asked a friend to join my alt's bank guild and had him invite Deadskully. I do miss the bonus perks, but I would also like my guild to be 25. I know I wont get all the good perks and rewards from the guild vendors, but it's alright. I'll live. Erzaea and I will level my guild. he goes to college, so he's not on very much during the week, but he does share an account with his brother so that takes away from his time to play as well. But it's ok. I like playing by myself.
I'll try to get out another Skully's WoW Adventures as well today.

Not sure what I'm lookin for

I jumped guilds again, this time might be the last, but don't hold me to that haha.  I honestly dont now what I'm looking for. I know that joining a new low lvl guild to help them get to 25 isn't always the best now. Trying to get people to do stuff as a guild is tough. I was just talking to a friend this morning about how anti-people I am... lol. I like who I like, and I talk to who I like, and a lot of people get on my nerves. I love to help in this game, but it's hard when you make the effort, but others don't really care. I always help out with guild stuff whether its donating gold or items to the guild bank, and if that goes unnoticed, unrewarded, or unrecognized in the form of a simple promotion then the effort is all a waste. You can't make GMs or Officers promote you and if you have to ask for a promotion the guild doesn't have good leaders anyways. When you have more alts in the guild then individual players it is easy to keep track of people so there is no excuses as to why you can't keep your people in order.
Hey now, how did this turn into a continuation of the last post. Meh. OK I'm done venting about guilds. I'ma take my leave if nothing happens by Sunday :-)

More stories please

I miss writing my stories... the few people that read my blog did enjoy them, and asked me why I stopped. RL happened and I didn't have the motivation I think. I do miss it. It's sense of joy I got when I completed one. As ridiculous as they were the main thing is I had fun making them. Taking the screenshots, not always taking them with the intention of making a random story out of them either. All I do is go to work and come home, very rarely do I go out with friends. So you'd figure I'd have a lot of time... haha very true, so what the hell is the hold up? I don't know tbh. I have so much drafts, unfinished stories and uploaded screen shots just waiting for writing to go along with them. Im always torn about how long I make them. I've had short ones, extremely long ones and the most recent had to be a 2 parter because it was getting to long. My last "Deadskully's WoW Adventures" was back in January before RL got interesting to say the least. I am looong over due to make another. :-) I'm off on Tuesday... PATCH DAY!!!! so while WoW is down, I'll prolly get one out. Unless I decide to take an extremely extended sleep. That might happen instead hehe.

Guild leader venting

OK so this is a minor venting session about what frustrates me with being a good guild leader vs a not so good one. Well a successful in my opinion anyways.
And this is all just my opinion.
I know I can cry about it or I can do something about it and start my lvl 10 bank guild up as a legit one. BUT I know I don't have the time and or the patience for recruiting valid members.
Yes majority of the GMs now days have an addon that send invites out to guildless people or something(I really don't know how that works) and just mass invites that way just to lvl their guild.
A good guild master either personally has the time, or he has Co-GMs that he can trust to help take care of the guild while he can't. This includes scheduling Raids, RBGs, Weekly challenges, and even other random guild events. Show the guild you give a shit. You have so much power and you now have followers. Most don't understand how much guildies look towards their GMs for a lot of things. More ranks in the guild is always a must. You promote someone for helping and being involved in the guild and it makes them feel good, like their efforts are not going unnoticed. People that contribute so much to the guild bank and have to ask to be promoted to be able to take things out of the bank. A lot of people don't ask, but if you had an attentive GM, they shouldn't have to ask. I understand GMs taking the proper precautions with trusting people nowdays.  Ninjas are everywhere, but I think Blizzard does a good job to get that back. I had first hand experience with that :-) And of course I wouldn't just give access to the ones that don't contribute shit. Majority of the time, if they deposit , they wanna be able to take out. I don't have that problem. I deposit but I very rarely withdraw. I get my own stuff, and I make my own stuff. I ask no one for any help.
I am famous for guild hopping. When I used to run every faction daily for rep I knew that was alot of guild exp that was being wasted. I would always join lower level guilds and make it known that I'm there to help level, then normally I leave. I stayed in one guild for a while IIAsylumII. When GM and Officers were active it was a very fun guild. It's where I met Jugga. And we were on all the time. People get bored and they take extended breaks or even leave the game. GM and Co-GMs included. Not Good. So you leave because once GM is MIA the morale of the guild goes with it. Nothing gets scheduled, no one gets promoted and people feel the need to jump a sinking ship. Some people like that, they're in a lvl 25 guild and it's quiet and they're just there for the perks. I'm like that on my lower lvl toons on different servers. They are alts and I don't care to make friends. Let me get my perks, lvl my toons and you all can suck it, kidding.But seriously I can see where the people come from that don't wanna do anything for the guild just get perks and that's it.
I'm sure I'll think of other to vent about this subject, but I cant think right now.
Bottom line is: You can't Be a successful GM if you don't have the time, Co-Gms to help you out. and Don't expect your guild to thrive into a successful one if you don't care about the people in it. the ones that are helping level your guild.
And this was all of Skully's opinion.

Double Agent Achieve

On 2/17/13 I made a post about the Double Agent Achievement and I plotted out how I would be getting it. 4 months later I got it.


I am so glad I stalled on getting this achievement sooner. During the time I gotten this achievement, Blizzard had a sale on all Character services for 50% off. So I would be spending $30 total. This included name change, race change, faction change, Server transfers. I had to jump at this chance to get this achievement for half price. After this was done and Monk logged on I linked him my achievement and this was me crying to him about the disgust with I felt for doing this. lol
Babyskully was a cute Human I must admit, but it just wasn't right. I did toy around with the idea of keeping her as an Alliance toon, but that quickly slipped out of my mind. Dirty dirty thoughts.






3 day cool down on bringing her back to Horde. She waited so patiently... like a real trooper.

Retired Account

As of today I turned off auto payment on Jace's account. I will admit it was a sad day and it killed me to do it considering it is technically my account. it was given to me and besides 4 toons, I consider the rest mine. I leveled them and I took care of them. and I made them Horde spies (the ally toons) and bitch mules working the Alli AH. Sooo I am including screen shots of the toons in honor of the awesome fun they have provided me over the past 6+ years.
85: Jace's main
85: Jace's second


82: Jace's ex's toon, I transferred from another account
.

33: MY lock. I needed to hide for a bit from my account
85: Jace started him but I lvld him
46: I lvld this little bitch. Cute but still Alli




60: Jace's Shammy
30:Jaces bank toon

58: Jace's other DK
I cant quite get the placement on
the pics to cooperate .lol

6!!!!!....7!!!! ... and my new friend

Ok so my 6th toon to 90 didn't really get an actual entry in here. I'm guessing cuz it was over shadowed by the fact that it was the toon that popped my Quintessential Quintet achievement. But when I look back on it, the whole entry wasn't that long anyways.

Sooo I will put it right here. On 1/17/13, Killmecow my Death Knight was questing in the Dread Wastes ready to hit 90. Along comes a Panda Monk named Jackichanda who offered to quest with me as we make our way to 90. How nice I thought and accepted the invite. Quested for a bit and I dinged! Woot! Im not too clear on why we stopped. Did I say I had to log?. which would have been really mean because this nice guy helped me get to 90 and I just bailed on him? Or did he have to go?... I will never know. Anywhos, before logging he gave me his real ID. He also has a ton of alts and likes to play with them all so that would be the easiest way. So I typed in the email and it said "request sent"... nothing was "accepted". alrightee no new friend for me. About a month went by and I was on Killmecow one day and I get a whisper from the nice Monk. Told him what I did and think I typed in the email wrong because it looked a bit longer then what I had typed the first time. This time it worked and that was around the 20th of February.  So it took a month from the time I met this sweet monk in the dread wastes to the time I actually added and we started talking. And the rest is history. It's only been a month but it seems like longer.
Which brings me to my Next toon to hit 90. Christene my Mage. And you can guess who was there for that one too?... Kyle, on his lock Dubluv, came along with my mage. He dinged first and then I did a whiles later making this my 7th toon to hit 90!

*I have to find the screen shots. I know I took them!

Deadskully the Beloved

WOOT! and FINALLY! Ive been stuck on this for a while, of course. I tried to really push after MoP came out because of all the new factions I figured I would be able to get this easier. Weeeel, after I got to exalted with all the Panda factions, I needed 2 more to go. ARGH! I was stuck at 58. The closest ones were Ashen Verdict, Brood of Nozdormu, and The Black Prince. All stuck at revered, not really moving.
The Ashen Verdict was the next to hit, as you saw from a previos post with my LK kill. That one was easy to get and I dont know why I didn't do it waaaaay sooner. I mean come on, I always see people in trade LFM ICC. Part of that hesitation was the fact that I didnt want to be commited to just one thing for that next hour+... BUT really it doesnt even take an hour now. Silly me, what ever, I dont know these things.
Alright now one more to go!. Because Im done with my Klaxxi and Dominance Offensive rep I dont do the dailies anymore. Majority of the Black Prince rep came from doing those 2 dailies. So that would be a tough and loooong ass grind if I chose to do that next... so um yeah, no!
Then my last quick option was an Old world faction. Brood of Nozdormu is rep you get from running both AQ's. You can pick up sigils also to turn in for rep. 550 for each. I knew I couldnt get past the twins so I asked Monk if he could help me. And thank goodness he said yes. We went in there, I turned in whatever sigils I had then we started through. It took all the way to the last Boss kill for this to pop for me. FUCKIN SWEETNESS!!!

No Pink Rocket for Skully:-(

Picnic for one
I am so sad that I never got the pink rocket this year. At the start of the the Holiday Event I had a plan to run all possible alts in there everyday. Thats 8 all together in 14 days sooo, 8x14=112! I would have a hundred and twelve chances to open a stupid box and find a rocket. after about the first week I was getting tired running them all. I have tank and healer classes, but they are all DPS, as I never really tried to heal or tank anything ever, So you can just imagine all the time i wasted in DPS ques. Sometimes I would bug friends and ask then to come and give me a insta-que, but I always feel bad for asking, I know they have their own stuff to do. But they were always so nice and willing to help me out.
AFK rando sitting down and decided to go "picnic" her
Casholight an afk guildie and went to 'picnic' her too
Anywhos, dispite the No Rocket for Skully! I did get the picnic basket, roses for the girls hairs, gas masks and 5 toxic oozlings. Now for the toxic oozlings because you can only learn 3 and they are soulbound when you get them out of the box, I had to learn them, then cage them and then sell them on the AH or give them away.and I already had one from a long time ago, I think I have one more to sell out of the 3.

while i was 'picnicing' Cash, a pally came and sat by us... how sweet!
So sadly the pics here are not of the Rocket, which I was looking forward to posting Deadskully on but rather of Skully and randos having a picnic. OK I kind just saw these people AFK and sitting so I had Skully put the basket down and jacked screenshots. lol actually one of them was an afk guildie.

Took me long enough... LK kill

I know this was long overdue, and this raid pretty much doesnt matter but I was proud to finally get this done. Thanks to Monk and Beefy for inviting me along. I also got my Ashen Verdict rep to Exalted. When we left Cata, I haven't did ICC since and so my rep stayed at halfway through revered until the 12 of this month. Fuckin finally! is all I can say.
First time running through with Monk and Beefy, got me the achieves




Second time

Bev and Steven needed to finish it as well so I brought Babyskully in with them because Deadskully was locked for the week. Needed Monk to come on Mavrick to help us kill the Lich King. He came and we killed.



Babyskully and Mav


These clowns thought it was hilarious to pop mushrooms on him. They defiled his body in many ways then what i could get pictures of. Monk teabagged him, then he turned into a monkey and ate his face, and Bevy put her tree butt on his face. Silly silly friends I have. All I did was lie next to him but screen shots weren't good so no posting it up. :-)   
 WOOT FOR MY LK KILL!!!!!

Double Agent!!!!! DAMMIT!

I have been an Achievement whore ever since they were introduced to the game. Most of the ones I have are ones I can complete myself, because I'm a loner like that. Everyone who knows me know I am Horde for life. I have a logo tattooed on my arm for cripes sake. So this one damn Achievement is the bane of my WoW existence!
Double Agent requires me to have a maxed lvl toon on both Horde and Alliance. I have made an Alli toon on Lothar for the pet achieves. I needed to catch pets in all the Alliance major cities. Got those achieves and left that toon alone but didn't delete it or anything. "I NEED this achieve" I thought, so I went back on that toon and leveled it to 27. Getting it to 27 went pretty quick considering I had transferred a horde toon to that server a while back with a full set(at the time) of Heirloom gear(no pants), jumped in a lvl 25 guild and exp was crazy quick. Shit, I remember when lvling a toon was daunting grind. No exp boosts like these days. But nonetheless, I still couldn't bear the grind and in the back of my mind the fact that I am playing for the opposing faction is eating away at me and I always would joke with Monk, my tattoo is burning right now.
Now here is the part where I would be considered crazy, but I know people have done this, because I needed to do my research and make sure if I do "this", it will work. The "this" I am referring to is spending $30 and faction changing one of my maxed lvl Horde toons to Alliance, and then another $30 to bring her back. Crazy you say? hey some girls buy fuckin $100+ Gucci purses. I spend my money other ways so fuck off. So ultimately I will be spending $60 for an achievement. Oh yeah, and thankfully when I do bring her back, and I will!, I will still have the achieve.
My next decision is who do I send over. I wouldn't mind sending my priest over but she has 2 gathering professions as well as my Mage, but my Mage is not 90 yet so I can't afford to send my only farmer at the moment over. My pally, DK and shammy have professions I can't afford to be without for an extended period of time. So the only other option is *gulp*, Babyskully, my other Lock. I get a pit in my stomach when I think of sending her over into enemy territory. I told Monk, I will make her a Human and she will be what Deadskully looked like before she died and became undead.lol.  Then I tell myself, oh well if that's what you have to do/think to make yourself feel better about making this horrible decision then so be it. Steven did try to give me an idea, making a DK. you get past the first 55 lvls, but then there's the other 35 lvls that I have to push out, and I don't want to spend that much time playing an Alli toon. /facepalm. Can't win with me huh... NO, I'm so stubborn! And I want this achieve the quickest way possible. This is a pic of Babyskully's, "WTF!, are you seriously gonna send me over there?" reaction.
* after I transfer I will post a pic of Babyskully in her Alliance skin.

Pink Cranes my ass!

MoP Beta
Ok so yes I do have a Hunter, and yes she's already 89, BUT as far as knowing shit about this class, I am clueless (kinda). Until the other night I was running around with a Sunscale Raptor from the Barrens my brother got when this was his toon.
MoP
Ok a little back story on my hunter. My brother had gotten into this game I wanna say either right before BC or right after. His main was an Alliance Night Elf Hunter, I forget the name. He quit playing before I left Hawaii. I moved in with Jace and he was an avid player and he got me into the game. I started playing and was trying to get my brother back into the game, but he wasn't gonna budge. He was, is, and will always be a console gamer. Anywhos, so brother said he was never coming back to the game so I could have his account. Now this was before battle.net and so when Blizzard introduced Battle.net to their pre-existing games I was able to change the name on my bro's account to mine and all my info and from then on, it belonged to me.
Path
Now my next issue with this account was that all his toons were Alli. Yeah, I know! So I left it alone, and it sat for a good year or two, stuck at 68. I had a hunter on my own account that I got to 65. THEN around the time of the scroll of resurrection came out with the free 80 for recipient and a Spectral Mount for the scroll giver. Of course I jumped at that. Now here's where I spent money to just get an 80 hunter. I think all I paid for was an account transfer because The free server and faction transfer came with it because, The scrolls were designed for you and your friend to play together. So a Faction change later I had a Belf Hunter. Woot! Sadly I deleted my Hunter because I was maxed out on Hyjal toons, and named her Mishel after My sis Michelle.
Alright now onto the pics that I have.
MoP beta screenshot at the top is of a pagoda in the Jade Forest and around there were pink cranes. I remembered this a while ago when I started to lvl my hunter again to push her from 87 to 90. "Ohhhh I want a pink crane as a pet!!!" I went scouring the Jade forest and couldn't find any pink cranes! WTF! But I found the pagoda but there were friggen blue cranes around it. OK this can't be the same pagoda then! Looked on WoW head and come to find out that the only pink crane in the game is a rare that pats the Valley of the Four Winds and his name is Patrannache. I was soooooo pissed! Mostly bummed, and small kine pissed. lol. I will never get this fuckin bird! If I ever see this damn bird I doubt I will ever get it. I don't plan on cruising around on my hunter waiting for this damn thing to spawn. If anything I might see it with another toon that I play more, but when I switch toons, by that time it might be caught or killed by someone... or despawn. /sigh... no pink crane for Mishel.

Sweet! got my Bug Mount!... finally!



This was too Awesome. I was talking to Monk just today about me doing a crapload of archeology around Pandaland and turning the boxes in for Tol'vir artifacts and not getting the Hand or Mount to pop for me. Well I think Blizz saw me crying about it, that's pretty much seriously what it sounded like, because several more artifacts solved and I get the Ultramarine Battle Tank to pop up.  Oh Fuckin sweet! So excited, and I was tired already but I needed to finish this and get my mount tonight! and Woot I did.
Funny thing was I was falling asleep flying to the next digsites. Sites that didn't need a flightpath I either used numlock or kept my finger on the W and flew past sites many a time because I nodded off. I'm very terrible at doing that, because I've been known to nod off running dungeons or in vent with Monk. Its hilarious. Anywhos those are stories for a different time.
WOOT for my Ultramarine Qiraji Battle Tank Mount!!!!!! Come On Crawling Claw!!!!

Bye Thrall (revisited)


I was looking in my Facebook WoW album and found this picture.
The day before Cata hit we all wanted to go and say "Bye" to our Beloved Warchief Thrall. I don't care for the screenshot I decided to post on FB because I had others that were better but since that computer crapped out on me and I didn't have anything backed up, I lost better (and all) of my screenshots, too bad so sad for me.
Nonetheless tribute to Thrall was made and I'm glad I was a part of that.
note: see Jace (Hurtsdonut) in the corner. lol

Moar Hunters!!!!

This was just funny. LFR decided to group a bunch of hunters up. Don't be fooled by this meter. This was only on trash. I ended the raid out at 2nd, poop!
As Demo, I do awesome AoE damage. so the bigger the pulls tanks do the funner time I have. I love seeing me at the top of dps charts, everyone does. BUT I've always said that DPS don't mean shit if you don't know the fights. Pick up adds, or stay on boss just to top the DPS meter, assholes. I hate that shit. I have to make a macro yelling at people to get adds. Its something I find myself yelling out a lot. I think I'll go do that now.

What gets under Skully's skin? (rant)

Anyone who knows me knows how much I love WoW(duh). So along with enjoying an MMO game so much, there are the people that just annoy the shit out of me mostly because they complain, complain, complain.

If you are playing the game and you say it's "stupid", it's "dumb" then guess what just stop playing. Just because Blizzard makes the game a certain way that doesn't fit YOUR needs and what would make the game be easier for YOU doesn't mean it's dumb. Either get on board with it or STOP PLAYING! I know I shouldn't let people get to me when they put down the game that I love so much, but I do. I really don't feel like talking to the person anymore. Knowing that I too play it on a daily basis and yet you still sit there and call it a stupid game. Geez what does that say about how you feel about the people that play it and enjoy it. And really, what does that say about you that you still come back and play a "stupid game". Ultimately, Blizzard is doing something right to make your "stupid" ass keep paying 15 bucks a month. Good Job Blizz!

If you ask if I can make something, I take my time to log over to another toon to make it for you and then you tell me "nvmd, I just bought it off the AH" That will annoy the shit out of me. I have every single profession on my alts, for just that reason. If I need something, I make it myself. And if I can't make it then I see if I can get it on the Auction House. And if the Auction House doesn't have it then I look up how to either get the pattern for it, or the mats. And if I still can't get it, that's when I see if friends are online to help me with it. I do not ask them to make it for me NOW, if they are busy, I can wait. And tips are very generous coming from me. It's just courtesy for your fellow players, some people have it, and a lot of people don't.

If you ask me for advice or help on something but don't take it, that wont make me mad. I just wish was right in front of you to see you try and fail at what I just told you you cant do! I am more then willing to help people with in-game stuff. It does give me great satisfaction knowing that I can help people out when they are stuck trying to do something. But then there is the other side to that, where some people will constantly ask for help and ask the same questions over and over again. And they ask you to explain things to them like you don't have anything in the game to do yourself. They do not take the time to look things up themselves. It's called google, try it.
I will admit, Ive asked for help only a handful of times in this game and it's mostly to my friends. Majority of my time I'm looking up shit myself. WoWHead is my online bible, I refer to that for everything I get stuck on. I don't know why people don't just look things up themselves. You can take the time to read up on stuff at your own pace.


People who try to tell others how to play their class are pretty high on my Douche list as well. You can all suck it! Cuz unless you pay for that person's monthly fee, then you have no room to tell anyone how to play the game. When I think about this topic it does make me think about me, and what I do with others. Let me clear something up, and it might sound like I'm making an excuse for myself, but really, I'm not. If someone asks me for advice or my opinion on something, I will give it. I will not tell them how to play their toon, or they should play the game this way or that. People come to me for my 2 cents, I don't just go around dishing it out where it is unwanted.

When I think of the above topic, people in instances are the worse offenders. Because you can't convey sincerity or sarcasm through typing, people might have the best intentions in trying to help out a fellow player, but it will always sound arrogant if you can't hear the tone in their voice. But majority of what I've seen is always for the reason of people getting too frustrated with someone who is doing something wrong. It does show the kind of person they are when they do this, and sometimes I wanna say "geez, they're learning you dickhead, shuddup!". Some people act like everyone should know how to do everything in game right off the bat. But I usually keep the comments to myself unless they are playing extremely terrible and just all over the place.

(I wanna say this might be a part 1, because I'm sure I will find more thing to vent about)

Galleon Kill!!! Woot!!!!

I never thought I would have gotten to kill let alone see Galleon. With so many people trolling trade chat with "LFM Galleon" you never know who is telling the truth and who is just spamming trade to be jerks.
Well yesterday I was in Org on Babyskully, saw the spam, and shrugged it off. That person got a lot of crap for the post, but something about that person's reaction/defense to the accusations seemed a bit truthful. I told Monk and quickly logged off and switched to Deadskully to check it out. She was in Org as well, BUT thankfully I have her Hearthstone set to Halfhill.
I hearthed, ran out of the Inn, mounted up, headed for Galleon's spawn point and said in general chat "inv galleon"... got my invite and I was not expecting to see what I saw when I arrived. Galleon was HUGE! I was expecting to see a slightly bigger version of the Mushan that litter the area but his size was no way near those. He had about 1/3 health left by the time I arrived so I really didn't get to see his abilities and get the feel of the fight, or reeeeeally get a good look at him. It was just land, pew pew, dead.
He has a chance to drop a mount that is a smaller version of himself, his son. It didn't drop, and all I got was a bag with the usual gold in it. But I also got an Achievement:

When this popped on my screen I was like why the fuck is the Lizard dude in my achievement. Haha, yeah noob. Apparently, Galleon is his mount... well a battle tank pretty much. He sits on Galleon's head  and his Raid crew shoots players with the cannons, and jumps off to engage in fights on the ground. And yes I missed all this. I seen the bodies on the ground when I got there. Sadly Monk didn't make it there in time, so he will be keeping an eye and ear out for him( Salyis's yell can be heard through out the whole Valley of the Four Winds Zone) on Sunday because he has about a 48 hour spawn time (don't quote me on that).
Needless to say, I had an easy time, killing Galleon and getting an achieve for a World Boss kill.
