    /lol and /laugh are the same thing.

    I use /lol when people who tried to gank me run away after I want a rematch.

    I tend to use /mock a lot >.>

    I need to get back in the habit of /shimmy and /flop. I've gotten out of practice since it doesn't fit my Mordim RP so much (and was ideal for my Munkus RP).

    My favorite is golfclap. I use it anytime I am ganked by someone more than 3 levels above me, or if i'm jumped by 2 or more people at once. I just wish I could use it while stunned.

    I haven't checked or anything, but I'm guessing /bite is my most used, followed by /cheer.

    /violin sees a lot of use for me. /golfclap is probably a close second. I can't armory myself at work or i'd check.... Unless someone wants to check Algorefiend of koralistraz(sp) and let me know ^^

    Note to self: name first DK "Jacktehripper"

    I tried to get Dora for my DK.

    I thought you did? Well, someone on these forums did, I saw a "Dora the Explorer" SS a while back.

    Alas it wasn't me.


    I believe you were thinking about this?

    I would use facepalm a lot more, but I always forget about it until after the fact. Also, i'm sad they took /fail out of the emote list. I wanted to use that one soooooo bad.

    The only times I've used /spit is when I've been corpse camped. Also I spit on friends when I see them randomly (just for fun). I did /lick a lot on my rogue (I don't know why, I just liked the idea of him licking mighty warriors).

    I /spit on people who try to gank me when I'm at low health and don't succeed. Or people who like to stand on my fishing bobber in Dalaran.

    It's why I took engineering on my priest, before engineering was cool.

    I still haven't taken professions on my DK yet. Maybe I'll get engineering so I can continue to blow shit up. Hey, is that door locked? Not anymore, I'm gonna blow it up!

    That reminds me. The other day I got killed in the Nexus during a run. The DK rezzed me as a ghoul, and at that point I became unrezzable.

    I was not amused.

    Among words people abbreviate, the one that drives me crazy is "plz" Something about shortening please to "plz" sets off alarm bells in my head. It just looks annoying in print.

    Plus, when me and my roommate were both paladins a couple years ago, there was a rather memorable incident where we were in Searing Gorge and some dwarf hunter comes up to us and says "help plz". I immediately sensed bad times if I did help him, but my friend decided to help him out because he was feeling generous. Trying to help him complete whatever quest he had was apparently one of the worst hours he's ever had in WoW, and I just laughed at him.

    And yes, I do spit, but only if I'm getting camped.

    Is there something wonky with combat/aggro these days? Two incidents stand out:

    Yesterday an alliance mage kited about 10 mobs past me while I was sitting, drinking, and then hit invisible... all the mobs aggro'd on me. He tried it a second time after I rezzed, but I managed to escape.

    Also, an alliance warrior aggro'd too many mobs on himself and was overwhelmed. I was fighting a few mobs nearby, and after he died, all his mobs made a beeline for me, despite being way out of range, it seemed.

    I vaguely remember something similar in the early days of TBC, but don't remember if that was fixed, or was just theory that was believed but never proven.

    I have to agree with this. Ever since my personal discovery of the Internet (back in the days of Napster), I have made a solid stand to never speak in Internet abbreviations. I've watched them be created and come to fruition, but never succumbed to using them. I'm probably a bad person for disassociating with those that speak in the most heinous of abbreviations (plz, thx, wut), but I feel that I benefit from doing so.

    I've kicked people out of groups for ignorance and idiocy. I just don't have the time to tolerate them

    Edit: wat, ne1, no1, 4 (for)...

    While annoying, I've never seen that one done non-ironically.

    "wat" bugs the shit out of me, though

    "wut" is fine, because again, it's typically done to be ironic

    But I can't count the number of kids who type "wat" without any thought to how dumb it is

    Also, 'any1' or even worse, 'ne1/nething'.
