Enzeru is currently on a private server and trying to help them recover from an accidental database wipe.

Thanks, but I think the head guy decided to rebuild from the ground up. Which means I need to come up with a few more ideas to present. I think I'm going to actually apply for staff.

Just... man. That sounds like it'll be a lot of work. Well then, I'll wish you luck becoming a member of the staff if you do apply, and I wish the head guy luck rebuilding. :)

I'll pass it along. He'll need it. He's got one server running, the pvp server. He's got two more to get going, I think.

Ouch, good luck with that private server!
Hm i'm not sure but I found the Argeant Dawn trinkets cute :3
And the tadbard was awesome
Oh hey, does anyone know how to get into the dancing troll village? O_o Been working on trying to get there with a few pals. Hasn't worked out so great.

Ambi:
You should reroll Alliance on Kil'Jaeden. :) It's my home server now so I could help you out tons in leveling... xDDD <333
Come to the dark side and play with meee!! <33
Verisimility:
Grats! Wow, lots of work. x_x I wish I was leveling my new mage that fast. She's only 44 now. >.<;;; Been working on my main's achievements instead. I finally got Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms. ^_^ Now to do Kalimdor... that one's gonna suck. >.<;;;
If the scourge invasion is anything like it was the first time it'll end next week most likely with the release of wotlk and the new naxx. It was an event that marked the opening of naxx the first time around. :) Doubt it'll be any different this time. <3
Lathrine:
Quite frankly the zombie thing was annoying, but at level 70 I really didn't care about being in a major city at all. I spent my time elsewhere. However I really REALLY felt bad for new players and lowbies running around trying to do quests and learning their professions/skills. =/ Wasn't very fair to them... And I have to agree with that statement for the normal servers.... if they wanted to pvp that's what the pvp servers were for... lol.
Achievements... I think my favorite was the 50 pets one. :) I wouldn't give up my Stinker for *anything*. I've wanted a skunk pet since I first set foot in Terokkar and saw one. ^-^
I'm also trying for that achievement... Sadly Brewfest has screwed me over and I'll be waiting till 2010 to complete it. =/ I'm not a member of their monthly beer program, whatever it's called the name escapes me atm. >.< So I'm going to have to join NEXT year's brewfest... and then wait ANOTHER year to drink each of the BoP beers each month. ~,~;;; I hope Blizzard takes it out... but at the same time... it's my own damn fault for not joining it this year. D:
Enzeru:
OMG I MISSED YOU. >.>
And that really sucks. :( Hope you guys get that up and running soon. ><;;;
---
Sheesh I leave for two days and you all decide to find people to keep this thread busy... xD
You all make me so happy. <3

Yeah, me too. There's a big argument going on about restoring or rebuilding the database. The problem is, the data restored will be six months old. I'm sure the admin will know to back it up more often now XD

I think he has data from six months ago x.x
Most people are saying do that but there are some of us who would prefer a complete rebuild due to bad memories and such.

Have you guys heard what they're doing with Lich King? You aren't allowed to digitally download it from the internet (like you can from the WoW site with Classic and BC)...that means if you (ever) want Lich King, you HAVE to buy a copy from the store. :/

Kearin- Oh yes. I can definitely see how it wouldn't really be fair for lower levels. The part that got to me was all of the 70s sitting in trade whining about "Oh poor me, the zombies killed the flight master." and saying that the zombies were idiotic and should be removed. The only thing I could think was... if you're sitting there at the flight master, complaining each time he gets infected/killed.... maybe you should try fighting back and kill the zombies? I mean, just maybe...
And I'm in the same boat as you, for the Beer of the Month Club. D: I kept spending my tokens on those hops that would change your mount, instead of saving up for the club. >_<; I'm almost, alllllmost wishing that Blizz hadn't removed the need for collecting all of the masks, because I only need like, six more until I got the [A Mask For All Occasions], but I can see why they did it. We can only hope they'll do the same thing for the monthly beer thingy. >.<;;;

Yea... I understand 70's complaining about it being annoying... cause... it was... But I really got upset for all the low levels. =/ They easily one shot several of my alts. That had to be really frustrating for little people. >.< And then there were the people who were out to just be annoying and evil and create zombie armies. lol.
It was cool at first... A new addition to the original scourge invasion I got to see the first time... But as the timer on the disease dropped... o.o It was stressful and easier to stay OUT of the major cities or in Darnassus where people weren't even bothering with going there except to hide... xD
I kinda hope they *do* change it... lol... But that's cause I don't want to wait till 2010... xDDD
I was only missing 8 of the masks so I'll get it next year for sure hopefully. =) It really was a game of chance, I may not even get it next year only needing the last 8 masks... That's why they removed it.
I spent my tokens on the Dress... So I'm pretty damn happy I have at least one piece of the Brewfest garb already. It'll make that part of the achievement easier. :)
Right now I'm working on most of the fishing and cooking achievements. Finished Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms, grabbing guildies and friends to finish loremaster of Outlands before Thursday so I can get the most money outta it. ^-^ I lucked out yesterday and my friend in a T6 guild invited me to Hyjal to get my achievement done. o.o I owe her big time. <3 Much love for that.

My brother was being a zombie in the human starting zone and actually had a level four ask to be infected. I found it all sorts of hilarious. xD
o.o I didn't even notice there was an achievement for getting the Brewfest garb. Damn. Now I'll DEFINITELY have to wait until 2010- there's just no way that I'll be able to join the beer club and get Brewfest clothes at the same time. :insane:
ARGH. FISHING. IT BURNS. isufaghcfnsidufyujhv. -can sit there for an hour working on cooking/inscriptions/enchanting/first aids but cannot stand fishing- o.o Grats on getting into a Hyjal run! I've been working more on the exploration achievements then the questing and dungeon ones- some how I can find it in me to run through the whole of Silithus, but not traverse a continent running quests. xDD; That said, I'm only missing Northrend and most of Kalimdor before I'll have those finished. :insane:
There are sometimes I really wonder if my priorities are messed up really badly.
I've got to say though, I think that Blizzard made a really good choice by putting the Achievements in. I was starting to get bored with WoW after hitting 70, but I'm finding myself ingame more and more to get achievements finished. :heart: I wouldn't mind in the least if we never had a purpose for the achievement points- I think that achieving them is sort of a reward in it's self.

So, I never asked...do any of you use add-ons? If you do, which ones do you find necessary to your daily WoW play?

Verisimility- I use RatingBuster and Omen, but that's about all. I've never been as much "ADDONS AAH MUST HAVE" as my dad and brother, so I don't really have any fancy ones. I'm not instances very often, so Omen is an off-on kind of thing, leaving RatingBuster as the only addon I find necessary, though there are a few vanity pet ones I've looked at.
What about you? =3

Must-haves are:
Titan Panel: Takes away the bottom and the top original stuff and replaces it with a stream-lined customized bar that you can include cool stuff like Honor-Grind, etc. on to.
Bongos/Dominos: Customizable screen, completely. Lets you put all your spells up on your screen all at once and move anything around that you want to.
Carbonite: I COULD NOT PLAY WoW WITHOUT THIS. It speeds up my quests and leveling by phenomenal rates. It tells you where your quest objectives are on the map...areas where you have to kill things, etc.
...I think those are my main ones. Of course I have Auctioneer, which helps me play the Auction House...and other random add-ons like Instance helpers, and profession-centric add-ons. Oh, and AtlasLoot, which lists ALL the items in Warcraft and lets you try them on. :]

Lathrine:
Oh I know. >.< There we quite a few people who wanted to be infected. :] I was a bad bad bad priest and enjoyed ruining their parade at first by giving them all cure disease for the longest time. xDDDD
Yea... I sat down the other night and looked up ALL the world event achievements to make sure I wouldn't skip any. And if there were any I could do now instead of later to save myself some time. I've been playing long enough to have most of the children's week pets... But you only need one for that achievement. I have all the Lunar Festival Dresses. lol I lucked out and saved three coins, not sure why but it gave me that achievement too. :] I have most of the elders spoken too as well so I have credit for them oddly. An old ex of mine got me the red roses bouquet out of an instance so I have that for Valentines.... Uhm, I'm kinda pissed about the easter event. I have looted an Elegant Dress from an egg before... and HAVE I IN MY BANK... But I didn't get credit for the achievement. ><!!! But, all in all I should have EVERYTHING by 2010 for *sure*. :) Which makes me feel *much* better.
I hate fishing too. :( I maxed it to 375 by trying to get Ironjaw. Now I have most of the fishing achievements available now though. xD;;;
Hyjal... I'm decently geared for it... and she has T6 so it wasn't a huge deal for the guild to take me... xD They needed a healer and healers can usually BS their way through things at levels or with gear sometimes. :D I came in fifth on the healing charts against T6 geared healers so I did more than alright. xDDDD
You would hate me if I posted how many Achievement Points I have... >.> I finished the exploration achievements with the trick or treating ones... So they're all done 'cept for Northrend. :D I don't wonder... I know my priorities are messed up... I'm way more than geared to run any heroic of my choosing and I pass them up to go work on loremaster and having 56 vanity pets lol. xD
The achievements made me as happy as the dressing rooms did when they were first released. :) I remember back when you couldn't look at items before you equipped them. xDDDD Now I'm just waiting for them to give me a wardrobe to keep all my pretty dresses and gear I can't give up.... xD I have a full set of Devout in the bank that I just won't shard since I leveled to 60 in it and wore it for months trying to run Molten Core to get my Prophecy set. ^-^
Versimility:
I don't play with any add ons at all. I hate add ons. =/ I tried Gatherer for a little bit but when the most recent patch messed it up I decided add ons have never been for me and removed it from my computer.... >.< I know where almost everything is now after a couple 70's... It'll take me longer to figure out a mod than just keep using thottbot when I'm stumped.

Kearin- I run into trouble where I rarely participate in most of the holidays, and I've NEVER participated in Valentines and Children's Week. So, yeeeaaaaahhhh. XD;;; That just means that I'll have to be really aggressive during those holidays.
Now the question is... do you have achievement for catching 1000 fish?
I'd say you did pretty dang well. xDDD The only raid instance like that I've ever been in was Kara... It was a 'guild run' with most of the original members, even though some were in other guilds. We got half way through, which was pretty freaking amazing considering that some of us were horribly geared and it was the first instance ever for one guildy. I didn't like the fact that it was that it took seven hours. X_x
lol. xD I'm trying to get the 50 pets achievement, but I'm missing four pets. Which would be whelp and oozling farming. I honestly shouldn't be cringing at the thought since I have the Hyacinth macaw, but that was an accident so... *cringes at the thought of farming whelps*
Oh man! xD I haven't been playing that long, but that would be awful! Well, not as bad as it could be. But if the only piece of gear on the auction house that was a direct up grade looked like a loin cloth, I'd rather find something else. xDDD OOohh, a wardrobe would be NICE! I have some gear that I just can't bring myself to part with - my Linken Master Sword! My... preciousssssssss - so I'm having just a tad bit of a bag space issue.
Verisimility- I had Auctioneer at one point. I'm not sure where it went. XD

I have the 500 fish achievement... I've caught over 600 fish towards the 1000 one... xD <33333
Fortunately my friends and I are geared enough to do Kara in 2 hours or less. It really got nerfed with the most recent patch... It's pretty safe to pug it now. :)
!!! YOU HAVE THE HYACINTH?!?!? >.< I've been farming it every chance I get where I'm in STV. DDD: Did you check warcraftpet.com? They have an AWESOME list and they tell you how to get each pet. ^-^ There's a few out there that are much easier than grinding out the pet in the hopes it drops. :D
LOL I made a guild today (and bribed level ones with gold to sign my charter...) paid the 100g to have the first tab and safeguard my money and items that arent soulbound and I want to keep in there. :3 <3

I have it, and I feel SO guilty about it. XD; I've had it for over a year- I looted it when I was questing in the area and didn't think anything of it. I checked wowdb for it's drop chance just a few months ago and went "..... o.o meep." xDDD;;; Hm, I hadn't checked them yet, actually. D: I'd better go do that. xD
LOL! I might end up doing that. It'll depend on how desperate I get for bagspace. :3 That, and if I can put up with people asking to join my guild. >_>;

They're an AMAZING site. I use them to figure out where to find things and I keep a list of what I already have... what I'm looking for... and what I'll never be able to get... xD
I give the guild a name most players (generally guys) won't want... Mine's named Cupcake Palace... xDDD
I wish we played on the same server! I'd help you out with all the achievements I could. >.<!!!
