    Is it ok to want to smack any person nowadays who makes a stupid cow/beef pun in their Tauren name? Like, the whole thing has been played the hell out, and anytime I see someone do it, it just reeks of a "ME TOO!" attitude.

    The last Tauren I rolled uses an Indian name that translates into Lord of Bulls (at least, according to some website).

    So, you don't like my new Paladin, Cowlahad?

    Only acceptable if he is also always wearing a hood

    Cowfession the paladin is sad now. He's also only level 5 and will never get played again so whatever.

    My first tauren was named Mini for lawlzirony, but then people thought I was a girl and just spelled Minnie wrong.

    Oh, looks like I missed the discussion on how odd the Worgen Wimmins look.

    I mean I don't mind the yiff sexualizedness so much as I'm bothered by the lack of eye color. I wanted an orange eyed mage. >=(

    Well, there are Paladin helms that would satisfy this, so I will do my best to meet this requirement.

    Plus, with a hood, if I choose the right horns, it might make him look the Tauren Batman. :)

    On an unrelated note, anyone know why the Wintersaber Trainers are showing up in the armory Reputation tab for my Tauren Druid? Granted, the rep is 0/36000 but if it shows up, doesn't that mean it can be raised? Or is this just a bug?

    I saw a 14 Worgen Warrior named "Cullen" on my server in the guild "Yiffs For Fun" or something like that.

    Question; for a mage, is Alchemy/Herbalism a good combo?

    Yeah, it'd be good. Alchemy's useful for just about anybody, and the haste they added to the Herbalism skill was nice.

    Alch/herb is fine. I have alch/tailor on my mage, with another char doing the herbing.

    Also, I have a death knight named Rerolled. While not punny at all, I couldn't believe it hadn't been taken already as I didn't reserve the name

    Tauren druid Bullshift remains one of my favorites, as well as a warlock who went by Salty RogueTears (guild may have been <Taste Great> or something, I forget)

    Question. Archaeology dailies were mentioned somewhere. Are those one the trainer?

    There are *SO MANY* Horrible Worgen names.

    A lot of people on Hydraxis have gone the "Twilight" route and it hurts my brain.
    I also got called a hacker on my level 80 Worgen Druid by a Worgen Rogue named "TBoneBlade" because I was 80 and it was "impossible."

    I've now decided this is too good for the kind of scum who designed the mining/blacksmithing system.

    Turns out, you need fucking Obsidium for almost any recipe you make till almost max blacksmithing.

    I'm SWIMMING in fucking Elementium Ore (the Saronite equivalent) but I can't level my BS because all the recipes also need the cockblocking rare-as-shit Obsidium.

    I'll be that guy and ask what it means, since I can count on one hand how many times people have picked out the meaning of 'Bobbeorn' (admittedly, the Bob is tacked on in front, it's a theme I run with) in about 5 years of the druid's existence.

    No, a lot of people are keeping their old gear because it has slightly better stats due to enchants and gems.

    It's an old reggae tune by the Mighty Diamonds called "Pass the Kutchie", and the chorus has the line "pass the kutchie from the left hand side". I assume you can figure out what they mean by "kutchie" (hint: it's weed).

    Later some kid-reggae group did a version called "pass the dutchie". It caused some controversy because it was a bunch of kids singing a song about smoking your problems away in a Kingston slum.
