Thank you for the callout ^_^<br /><br />"Waar rook is, is vuur" The Dutch equivalent of “there’s no smoke unless there’s a fire”. <br /><br />I have played since the final months of vanilla myself, but only became a true wow gamer in TBC. Funny enough it took me a long time to get some of my friends and family convinced that they too should play. Yes, we are losing some long-loved bloggers/players, but I'm sure this game is winning subscribers every day, and maybe the crowd will change a bit, but change is only a stage that you go through, get used to, and then work with. <br /><br />Btw, I finally got my dad to play, he's now a lvl 24 paladin, that certainly must count for something!Sweetcherriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03904742253394231819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7084921087677216126.post-64143166732700568212009-05-05T05:01:00.000+02:002009-05-05T05:01:00.000+02:00Bloody stinking iPhone lost my epic post on it'...Bloody stinking iPhone lost my epic post on it's way to WordPress.. so no need to fear the mirror post...<br /><br />Rhii & others.

Although ...Inspiring post- well my thoughts are..<br /><br /><br />Although i started playing in orignal WoW, I didn't play it properly *i was very young and was out too much* But i properly learned to play in TBC which was the peak of my existance, being guild master of a succesful (at the time) guild and later making some friends i still talk to EVERY day.<br /><br />Most things die, some things later then others-- but not all things die.<br /><br />WoW WONT die- in our hearts, memorys-- but for some people it doesn't satisfy the need anymore- but we still want the memory.<br /><br />Therefore WoW can never die, only seal its lips, and await the time to call apon the word again (Blizzard are makigna mystery MMORPG for that)!.<br /><br />As for statistics, Blizzard re gaining more subscribers then ever, its just the quality of them that is going down. Theres more arseholes on WoW now but at the same time theres more nice people to couunter it,<br /><br />But as always,.<br /><br />We only hear the bad things.<br />I wouldn't worry your little pigtails- keep smiling like you are, yey for cacknoob, yey for bartender, yey for life.Kromushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18067130906727081580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7084921087677216126.post-14746924669996791572009-05-04T20:01:00.000+02:002009-05-04T20:01:00.000+02:00@Maiara: oh I loved the married-to-wow-post you ca...@Maiara: oh I loved the married-to-wow-post you came up with! I'm glad if I somehow helped you to get into the right mood to write it!<br /><br />@Carra: yeah, I think you can't expect too much from a patch. It's not like it's bringing a completely new game. The mounted fights actually are a bit new, but I guess they're not enough to keep people happy if they're really on the verge of a burnout.<br /><br />@Cack: a humbled Cack, can that be? Wow, if only the Stormrage population knew this soft side of you... :)<br /><br />@Fish: I'm not personally worried about the flu. Not at all. I think it's a bit sad to see the alarm machine starting over again. And I know that for every time this happens and it shows that it was a false alarm after all, the value of triggering such alarms will decrease, so that people actually won't listen when it's serious...<br />Risk communications isn't altogether easy though; I can understand the problems that the authorities are facing trying to put it right.<br /><br />@Tobold: hm... a flu like a chimney? I've got to think about that a bit further. It puzzled me.<br /><br />@Rhii: broken? Hm.. I know that some blogger blogs that link to ppi have problems with updates. They need to change to my feedburner address and then it will work. But when I check my feed in itself it seems to work properly, at least in my google reader. I don't know about others. Has anyone more out there noticed any problem?<br />To be honest I'm pretty clueless what to do about it, if it actually IS broken. :(Larísanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7084921087677216126.post-86859119931865868292009-05-04T17:40:00.000+02:002009-05-04T17:40:00.000+02:00Larisa, I think your feed reader is broken!

Being a knight is just so much fun :) And yes, doing the melee fights took a few tries to get the hang of it but now I'm just one shotting them.<br /><br />And it seems to be the time of burnouts. Can see it on the blogs, can see it in my guild. The freshness and fun of a new expansion is gone. People waited for the patch hoping it would make things more fun again. But if you didn't enjoy it quite as much before the patch, the patch won't change much.Carrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11155709707982913637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7084921087677216126.post-65063031072023047392009-05-04T12:20:00.000+02:002009-05-04T12:20:00.000+02:00Thanks Larisa :)

This is a case of the increasing chaos in the world. Not much to do about it but to survive and enjoy whatever you can as long as possible...<br /><br />I also think that blogging goes in generations. One generation is retiring, another one rises. For the newest bloggers, starting out today, maybe those old bloggers aren't quite as big as they are to the ones who've been around for a while. They may very well have other icons.<br /><br />Gnomeaggedon: for all your engineering talents you haven't made a helmet for mind-reading yet?

But as you say - the newcomers can add some energy and enthusiasm and influence the old and tired players... They're really a blessing.<br /><br />@Azryu: thats a great attitude to blogging.

I want to bum out in front of the 'telle and eat some chips. Guess what? I DO :)<br /><br />Other times, I go into super writing god-mode where I write a whole new guide or work on my website to no end.<br /><br />I think people just need to remember what they really started writing for, and ask themselves is that why they are still writing today.<br /><br />I think I may make a post about this...<br /><br />Also, thanks for the great read :)<br />It's always has been a pleasure to read some really good posts that go a little deeper and get a little more personal then your standard wow blogs!)Azryuhttp://amagesguidetolife.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7084921087677216126.post-77605289388279507692009-05-04T08:26:00.000+02:002009-05-04T08:26:00.000+02:00I totally feel where you're coming from with the a...I totally feel where you're coming from with the apathy wall. I haven't even hit my first wow anniversary yet, totally just discovering all these cool blogs, and all of a sudden, they're disappearing. Makes me sad.<br /><br />A few friends (and the boyfriend, too) were feeling a bit of the apathy thing, but then they finally conned me into starting to play. Since then, the game's become "magical" to them again. Revisiting all the old places, running an alt with you, coming to your rescue when that high level night elf picks a fight with your poor little 30 mage... ^_^<br /><br />That said, don't lose hope!
