Gitr Knows WoW

After much deliberation and polls and asking and e-mails, the prevailing winds have sent us to [tag]Velen[/tag]. It is a PvE server with a “Recommended” population status. Server time is -07:00. I only experienced lag when my Internet dropped me last night and I wasn’t able to get back on until this morning.

My toon, your new GM is Huntr, a [tag]Blood Elf[/tag] [tag]hunter[/tag], of course. If you want, start any race you want, and we’ll meet up in Kalimdor and such around level 20. I’m at the halfway through level 6 with 69 minutes of /played time. (I’m 10 minutes ahead of Frostr’s pace)

I will create a bank and auction toon tonight so we can pool money and get the guild charter faster. Nothing will change as far as the guild goes, just our home. I am assured that we will have new players joining the ranks on this PvE realm.

To those who want PvP, there are PLENTY of people who run around with their flag up, so if you want to leave it up at all times, by all means, have fun PvPing. I remember the days in IF on Kargath, you’d see a pretty fair mix of green and blue names running around.

I think we should coordinate professions on the forums today, and see how much money we can make. Edit: Thanks for doing that, Lance.

Here is my new RPG profile: Huntr of Velen.

I have found a method of solving those pesky feed-stealers.

1. You must have a current [tag]Creative Commons License[/tag] posted that covers any infringement.
2. You must be able to track their IP address from your trackbacks, pingbacks, or spam folder.
3. You must provide a link to your actual posts.
4. You must contact the DNS provider/host for the domain. I used [tag]Network-Tools.com[/tag].
5. You must be able to support that they are infringing upon your [tag]copyright[/tag].

Today I was able to do that against someone who has been stealing my feed for weeks. It only took an hour or so to get the whole thing done, and now I’m seeing a satisfying message on their domain:

This Account Has Been Suspended

Please contact the billing/support department as soon as possible.

If you are going to [tag]SOBCon 07[/tag], you just might want to bring along a stack of [tag]business cards[/tag] to pass out to everyone. It will be a quick way to exchange information instead of taking out your paper and pen to write out URLs and names, and eliminates the potential for typos.

Here is what I’ve custom-designed and ordered for my trip to [tag]Chicago[/tag]. If you like it and would like me to order some for you, drop me a note and we’ll get the ball rolling.

By now most of you have heard about the shootings at [tag]Virginia Tech[/tag] yesterday morning. It was a terrible thing to happen. No finger-pointing or ranting going on here. Bottom line: people died. Lives were ended, people are in the hospital, and families are hurting.

Join me and thousands of other blogs in a day of blog silence on April 30, 2007. No posts, no comments, no trackbacks. Silence.

Silence.

How to die? Let me count the ways…

• Run out of a mine, thinking you can take the beating.
• Drop all of your talent points…see what happens.
• Wait until you get to 1000HP and try to heal yourself.
• Spam the Bubble key over and over again to deflect damage.
• Aggro too much and try to Psychic Scream.
• Hit Bloodrage instead of Execute with 8% health left.
• Run onto the platform at Telredor in Zangarmarsh before it slides over to the edge.

Try all of these in your first hour of playing and see how happy you are.

Mind, Snow, and Gitr all scoped out Kargath last night. It is listed as “full,” but they both got in their new Draenai toons. They are Ravenkiller and Pickmepickme if you want them to send you an invite if I’m not online. I chatted with my ex-roomie and he said there are never any queues any more. This isn’t the official move unless you all think this is a good place to stay. I have toons spread across the board of levels, so I can run with you any time. I created a new Draenai hunter…wait for it…wait for it…Draenr. ROFL. I am still open to moving to Kinless’ realm, unless re-rolling with his wife is fun.

I played Gitr last night and this morning. This is where it gets funny. I logged in with 5g to my name. I finally decided to sell off all of my non-dungeon gear for cash and ran to Shattrath City and picked up the Zangarmarsh FP along the way. I went to Exodar to use the AH and am totally in love with how close the portal drops you to the mailbox and AH.
