Roflmao
I just checked my mail and found this official notice. I sure as hell will be giving them a piece of my mind for it. See how many errors you can spot. ^_^

3) I utterly REFUSE to use 'u' as a substitute for 'you'. It is a sign of laziness and sloth and I will not abide by it
4) The use of the word 'fag' as an insult is stupid and childish. I believe that if you're going to insult someone you should at least put enough effort into it so they spend as much time trying to figure out if you insulted them or not and over what.
5) Uther is a name of a person in WoW and, apparently, a sever. I capitalize proper nouns as a nod towards proper english grammar which I know I will probably slaughter mercilessly within the next few lines of text.

My sanity is not in question...
It was a confirmed casualty some time ago.
Light, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I had to kill because they ticked me off.

Re: Roflmao
You should help blizzard out. roll a toon on Thunderlord, and after informing them that we're the best Thunder Realm, point out that Mirra is a dick.

Re: Roflmao
Well I'm not going to nit pick grammar, or spelling, because mine sucks, however I don't think it's too much for them to at least get the realm right.
We all know Blizzard quality first hand and the most appropriate words to describe it would get you a warning too.
P.S. I don't find calling someone a cigarette very offencive.

Re: Roflmao
Have you guys realized that a lot of the quest text in the Outlands have a lot of misspellings? My boyfriend noticed that they misspelled draenai in one of the quests... y'know, only a race they created and everything.

Re: Roflmao
People read quest information? For that matter, what is this 'reading' you speak of?
I swear if I had a dollar for every time someone decides griding xp is more important than spending 10 seconds scanning the quest information for instructions I'd make more cash then Blizzard.
"The quest says to walk 200 paces east from the quest giver...where do I go?"
"The quest says to kill an ogre hunter and steal his plans...are the plans on the ground somewhere?"
"The quest says I need kill Cute Puppies and I've been killing Wet Puppie and getting no credit. Is it bugged?"
"The quest says I need to get eyes from Plagued Bears, what drops the eyes?My sanity is not in question...

Re: Roflmao
A common well known "Ash" quote from old VB days sums this up...
"Reading is fundamental!!"
I remember the guy that I first used that saying on... many many a moon ago.. He is the same guy that asked us a hundred times on Ventrillo.. where this was or where that was.... and one night I told him.. "You really should go down to the store and buy a WoW Atlas" ... his response was "Oh I have one.. its quicker to ask you though!"

Re: Roflmao
First off, I know EXACTLY who you're talking about lol. Good grief we told him sooo many times what he needed to bring to the forge to smelt dark iron that I had it memorized.
And yeah it's really annoying when the quest tells you almost exactly where you need to go and people STILL ask where to go or what to kill.

You're a great friend but if we're ever chased by zombies I'm tripping you.
