A few wow centered things. December 18, 2007

One of the things I found myself doing while sick, and having the laptop is playing on my wow account. Of course this won’t be for very much longer. It’s a simple fact of that when January hits the owner of the laptop will be needing it for course work at the Uni where he attends.
I’m normally a sound player, and stick to what I know and people I can trust. What with scams and people who hack accounts, I think it’s pretty damn smart of myself to be so cautious.
This does not mean that I am a “Nub” or “Noob.” Tarrlin is a lvl 26-27 horde hunter, and she’s the one that I spent time leveling when nobody else was on. She is my main and I adore how far I’ve gotten her with very little to no help.
Today I was gathering leather and selling the junk for my funds for a mount, when a user who shall go unnamed spamed me without warning a trade window. I hate that, it would be nice if people whispered me first.
Ofcourse I declined it.
Then they whispered me, saying to put my weapon in the window. I was a bit weary ofcourse. Then again this weapon was a gift from a random user when Tarrlin was just a level ten, I am loath to part with it.
So I said I wasn’t interested, it was a gift it wasn’t up for trade. This is a polite way of saying no, however the person then started to say rather absurd stuff, while explaining they only wanted to enchant my weapon. Then they pointed out soulbound weapons couldn’t be traded.
My polished claymore of the boar is soulbound, so this made me wonder. If this were in fact true, why even bother in the first place. However as I walked away to continue on with my goal of gathering skins for leatherworking they called me a noob, and a nub. I replied by simply stating that if what they said was true, then why attempt or bother. However the person had put me on ignore.
Real mature.
This is what irks me, this is the first time I’ve ever been called a W.O.W nub/noob.
There are alot of things I am still learning, but I’m not as fresh as a first time player.
However in the light of things, Groothar, who had crafted the gloves I am wearing, sent me an email. I had sent him some gold, mistakenly thinking Groothar was in fact a fellow wow player I know. He wasn’t, but he was honest and returned my funds.
So thank you Groothar for making me realize not all people are as childish and annoying as most people seem to be in the World of Warcraft.
I saved a copy of the letter as a reminder.
Merry happy holidays, I lost my voice. December 9, 2007

Merry happy holidays.
My first gift of the season was a parcel of goods. Anime, candy a new computer mouse and other things.
My second gift? One heck of an illness that has attacked my throat and rendered my voice gone. Oh how it hurts to speak when on the phone. Oh and coughing results in the ever present migrane headache.
I’d like nothing more then to stay in bed and not do anything, however I have a child, and she has school. For at least two more weeks give or take. Oh cruel fate how you mock me, this must be pay back for my Vampire Knight Review back at the Way of the geek site.
I have been rendered into a whiny, incapable woman who wants to be pampered, sleep, and have someone else take tia to and from school. However, the chances of that happening are very slim.
It’s winter after all, and people get sick all the time and I have to tighten my belt and deal with it.
I hate you jack frost.
