    So do you think Worgens and Gobo's will be allowed to be death knights?

    good question
    DKs are generally revived veterans of the 3rd war and both Gilneas and the Goblin's remained relatively uninvolved in it. Its possible, but especially in the case of worgens unlikely.

    I always thought the modern DKs were simply pre-WotLK PC-adventurers who wandered past the wrong tree in the Plaguelands, got clubbed into a concussion or worse and dragged off to the Ebon Hold for evaluation.

    There's a DK talent called Veteran of the Third War so I don't think so.

    All those Drainei hopped through the lore portal in their spaceship made of bacon and somehow died.

    I'm sure some of them might be fallen warriors from the third war. But all? No.

    edit: Well, Alliance has Draenei, who are awesome, and Gnomes who aren't awesome. On the other hand, Horde has Trolls, who are awesome, and Blood Elves who aren't. So... it's a tie?

    But the arguing about whether tips being "required" makes them a fee or argablargblargblarg stupid shit.

    I guess they could just make the exception for Wargons and Gobos by saying "We'll, there just really new recruits in the Lich Kings army!"

    But at the same time, by the next expansion we would have killed Arthas right? So confusing!

    but then I have no idea where they would start off at 58. maybe they implant memories or something to see their roots

    I have epic gems in my bags

    If you ask for a gem cut, i will cut your gem, go to trade, if you don't tip, i give your gem back to you and sell the cut gem on the AH

    i'm not going to create unnecessary competition with the stuff on the AH. In my experience, if a person doesn't tip once, they never tip, so i don't want your business.

    It cost me gold and time to get those designs, it wasn't for funzies, i didn't get an int-spirit gem on my hunter because i needed it. I did it for money. If i am not making money, it's not worth my time. Don't want to tip? I'm the only one with the cut? enjoy buying it on the AH for way more than the 10g appreciation you could have shown

    I don't understand this at all. Why don't you just say you charge X to cut gems instead of dancing around the point and acting like a dick when someone doesn't give you something you didn't ask for. If you won't do X without being paid Y then fucking say so.

    This works in theory, but i don't know if you've ever tried it. A lot of people won't use you on the basis that you're "a dick for charging people". I get around these people by waiting to see what the tip will be. The vast majority of people just say "fuck off" if you try to charge them, that's my experience.

    I would love to be able to just charge people, but i've tried, and it doesn't work out well (and this is using reasonable 5-10g charges, nothing outrageous)

    personally, i never tip less than 15 gold for anything northrend-level, and in most cases i tip 30g+ (especially if it's a guildy's service)

    I wonder if Arthas will find a way to transcend death and become a real death god.

    Raid: We killed Arthas! Yay! I call dibs on Frostmourne!
    Arthas: Tis only a flesh wound! I'll be back!


    Also, the entitlement most people feel and the generally crappy attitude are the reason why I don't bother making stuff for anyone but friends. I have every tradeskill but leatherworking maxed. Chances are I have whatever they need made but it's usually not worth my time to stop what I'm doing. Half the time they want me to come to them(and still refuse to tip or even say thank you) or else they're just window-shopping and not ready to buy yet. I've got better things to do than pretend to be a vending machine to ungrateful people.

    When there's something I need that I can't make.....I make sure to tip the person well. On my alt server there was an enchanter who'd always set aside time for me because a) I didn't waste their time. I always knew what I wanted, had mats, and came to them. I didn't mess around. and b) because I tipped them generously. I didn't abuse their hospitality either. They appreciated it immensely. I liked that I could get what I needed with a minimum of fuss.

    the LFG system has never really worked. Not enough people used it, so it didn't work properly, so no one used it, so it worked even less well.

    Plus, there are tons of people who, while not actively looking for an instance group, would be only too happy to go on an instance run if you asked.

    The global LFG chat was a million times better than this crappy pathetic excuse for a LFG system.
