Don't hate on the Beasts, we are good people. Mostly.
Does anyone else sometimes get tells when they log on from people they don't know asking them to join a raid? This happened to me for the first time this week. I want to know who is giving out my name to pubby raid leaders and why they feel tells when I immediately log on are a good idea.

He's probably just asking random 80s. They do that sometimes.
I remember once on my first time to Naxx, I rolled on the fire scorched greathelm. I thought I rolled a 1 and angrily yelled "what the fuck!" over vent. Then Gerbil told me I rolled 100. And I did, the helm was mine.
Yogg-Saron: Okay, so this whole plan is going pretty well. I've gunked up a tree in Grizzly Hills, I've enslaved the Keepers of Ulduar, and I've set up an impassable ravine between my inner sanctum and the outside world, so nobody can get in to stop me.
Kologarn: AND I WILL STAND IN IT.
Yogg-Saron: Seriously not necessary, K-Garn. I've got that whole thing under control. Check out the map. It says that's "The Shattered Walkway." It used to just be "The Walkway." Until I shattered it. No walkway, no progress. Pure effin' genius.
Kologarn: AND THAT IS WHERE I WILL SQUEEZE THE LIFE OUT OF THEM.
Yogg-Saron: No, dude. You don't need to go there at all. You can pretty much just take the week off. Maybe meet some ladies. I can't even remember the last time you hooked up.
Kologarn: NONE SHALL PASS.
Yogg-Saron: Well, that's the point of a huge ravine. So I don't really need your help.
Kologarn: I CAN CRUSH AN ARMORED TAUREN IN MY POWERFUL STONE GRIP.
Yogg-Saron: Yeah, but the tauren can't get over the ravine anyway. And it will be extra funny, because they could totally get over the ravine if they could use their flying mounts, but flying mounts are disabled in Ulduar. That will make them crazy. See, that's what I do.
Kologarn: WITH MY OVERHEAD SMASH, I CAN MAKE THE EARTH SHAKE. MY FOCUSED EYEBEAMS TURN MY VERY RAGE INTO LAZERS.
Yogg-Saron: Okay, I guess if you really want a crack at them. But it's fine with me if you just want to knock off. What's your hard mode?
Kologarn: HARD MODE?
Yogg-Saron: Can you, like, buff yourself to do double damage, or have twice as much health or something?
Kologarn: I AM VERY LARGE.
Yogg-Saron: Fair enough. Go hang out there. I guess, even if they beat you, I've still got my bases covered with the whole shattering-the-walkway plan.
Kologarn: YEAH. I DON'T SEE ANY WAY YOU'LL BE SORRY ABOUT THIS.

Wow. Every talent in ret except for one point in imp judgments and one point in crusade. Because who needs to do more damage/cast your best spell faster?
For anyone else who's run Baron in Stratholme hundreds of times, have any of you seen the Runeblade yet? Supposedly it's got a higher droprate than the mount, but I've not seen it yet either.
According to wowhead the mount drops ten times more often than the blade.
Ah, I hadn't looked at the drop rates in a while. Last time I checked them, the mount was something like 0.01% and the runeblade was 0.1%. Now the mount's up to 1% and they didn't touch the sword.

Heh. I helped a player I've known for years complete a leg of some old AQ 40 quest line. We had to go out to Alcaz Island and whack some level 63 Elite MoB named "Dr. Weavil". He was a rogue, i was the tree to heal, and we brought in a lock for his pet. I thought it was over kill.....but doesn't the little bugger MC the lock , who fries the rogue and then cooks me ><. Then the rogue tells me he remembers seeing this little level 63 Gnome wreck a 40 man raid by MC'ing 8 players at once.

Then the rogue tells me he remembers seeing this little level 63 Gnome wreck a 40 man raid by MC'ing 8 players at once.
I was out there just the other day doing some lowbie quests on my 80 DK and decided to swim out there and see what was out there. Oooh! Elites.
So I run through there smacking these guys around and decided to go into one of the buildings. I am happily raping a few fellas on the first floor when some of the baddies from upstairs decide to join in. Good, now I can just run up there and look around without having to step over bodies.
Next thing I know I am getting my mind raped and am sitting next to this level 63 elite named (dun dun dun) Dr. Weavil....for 2 minutes.
When it drops, I try to kill that little bastard and he does that shit to me again!
Another 2 minutes and when it drops, I run.
I get out of the building right when he fucks my head up again. I then follow this little mentalist upstairs to be his lapdog bitch for another 2 minutes.
For this 2 minutes I am thinking "how the fuck do I get out of this? Log?"
Luckily, on my next foot race to get away from the gnome mother fucker, he doesn't mind control me and I get away.
I sat there humiliated wondering if I should go back in to avenge my psyche and then thought "what if he mind fucks me again?" No, I'm out.
I had actually made plans with the guild to go back and fuck him up but now reading what you wrote, I'm not so sure.
They could raise the drop rate on those nightmare shards to 100% and I don't think it'd be enough to get me to continue that quest line. I believe that's where I left off, and I'm pretty sure it's where I'll stay for the rest of my rogue's existance.
Not that I'd ever pick him up again as a main were I to resubscribe. Ooooh no, I learned my lesson on that.
Forar on
First they came for the Muslims, and we said NOT TODAY, MOTHERFUCKER!
So a friend of mine hasn't played wow since August of last year, and I had a sudden urge to play a warlock. I was hoping to transfer his lock from his account to mine, but apparently Blizzard frowns upon that sort of thing. If I want to play that char I'd have to reactivate his account, upgrade it to wrath, and then transfer it to the server I actually want to play it on. Nuts to all that -_-

You could always try something a little shady if your friend is a chick. Have her call Blizzard and say she's getting married and wants to change the last name on her account. If they agree, change the last name to yours and then it should be eligible to be transferred to your account.
Sadly if it's not a chick, you're still screwed, unless it's a uni-sex name. Then you can just get a chick friend to lie/pretend/act for you. After all, it is what they are good at.
I'm in MA, technically speaking that's ok here. It doesn't matter though, apparently Blizzard asks for a copy of your marriage license if you try to do that though.
I'll probably just end up RAFing myself again.
Funny RAF story though - so I leveled my warrior that way, dual boxing with a priest. I only did this for a few weeks, then gave the extra account away to a friend who wanted to make a DK. It never occurred to me to look, but apparently him taking that account and playing it for several months entitles me to a Zhevra. Score!
I've always wanted to meet someone like that so I can out-DPS them with just autoattacks.
Unarmed.
I....I... didn't think it was possible to do that with gear on purpose or accidentally. I mean, if you randomly accepted the first usable quest rewards and all, you Might end up like that, but I think even the first options are consistent with 1 spec.....
No gems or enchants on anything? even those pieces that accidentally weren't bad and HAD a gem slot....are they waiting for gems to drop?
the shield glyph is fantastic. I mean.. clearly the fact its for a prot ability and you run around with 2 handers.. it's close....
and I've always wanted to see what it is like to take every talent in a tree....I see that going something like. Hmm I can't decide between this useless talent and that other useless talent. I know, I'll take both!!! I'm a genius:winky:
Name changes are a huge PITA. My ex-wife had to present our marriage license and her updated social security card to the university when we got married.

Also, I happened to like the onyxia trinket.

Pyroblast.
Stare at distant object.
Oh, Pyroblast's dot done ticking. New Pyroblast!
We booted him from the raid before we reached Huntsman.
