Hi, just doing some research for my Quiksilver website. Truly more information than you can imagine on the web. Wasn’t what I was looking for, but great site. Take care.

But that doesn’t happen in real life. Right? It’s still your own ability that counts.

KG: I *do* run instances. That’s the sole reason I’m there, ‘cos instances are the most fun thing in the game. That, and battlegrounds.

Relax, I wasn’t saying you were one of them. It just really gets my goat, to hear someone casually drop “my lvl xx char on realm yy”… it’s so insignificant! Like comparing megapixel ratings on digital cameras. Tell me about the cool Onyxia raid you had, or the Lord Khazzak take down, or something interesting.

John: you earn money and you buy a plasma TV. Which of the following gives you the most “happiness” or “satisfaction”:
(A) Pride in getting it: the idea that the TV is bought by you and you alone, with your own two hands and effort.
(B) Joy in using it: The idea that you now have a plasma TV, and you can save all that space on the table and watch your favourite shows in high-def, big-screen satisfaction.
(C) Bragging rights: The idea that your neighbour doesn’t have one. Or yours is bigger.

Everybody feels all of the above to some degree. To me, I feel (B) edges out (A). To you, (A) edges out (B). Just a small difference of opinion =).

Why don’t you want to run instances? It’s true that some group will fail, but most of the time there is also one that will succeed to the last boss. You don’t exactly need a high level to run you through an instance. If a group fails, try again. I believe you’re not a quitter right?

I agree that some 70s are dumbasses. They can’t play jack of their class what more knowing what other classes can do. And yes, some people like to boast what they got. When I said I have a 70 I’m not trying to boast that I’m level 70 and you’re not. I’m just implying that I have more experience in WoW and am just trying to help you out.

Oh and about the mount issue, I know that pallies and locks get free mounts at level 40. But you still need to pay 800g for an epic mount :)
