Where I’m heading

Comments are off because this was not written to fish for encouragement or praise or “don’t go”s. —————————— I’m teetering. Teetering on the edge of going casual. Or quitting. Or taking a break that works for a while but then I come back later but it’s not the same so I quit again. I really
The single most frustrating part of Warcraft and why it pushes me ever closer to quitting the game

The most frustrating problem in Warcraft is none of the things that you have seen people write about lately. [...]
Pink knickers part 2: Here are my own numbers
Jan 25th
Ok, Mr not-so-anonotroll, you want analysis? I’ll analyse your face off. First, let me say that I fully expect a bunch of troll comments telling me that I’m getting worked up over nothing, I’ve got too much time on my hands, I’m blowing things out of proportion. Lol umad? Nah, I just like analysing stuff,
Maexxna wears pink knickers, duh

I don’t often do this.. I don’t often pull someone else’s post from the blogosphere and say “what a load of utter tripe.” But here it is. And it’s on your favourite subject and mine: girls in WoW. Gevlon wrote an article about how feminists often post about female characters in WoW (or a lack
(some) Lowbie tanks: god’s gift to WoW
Dec 6th
Doing some lowbie instances with my boyfriend last night; he is DPS, I am healing (druid #8, heehee).
Wailing Caverns pops up. OK, cool, I’m curious to see what’s changed. Um, has anything changed, as far as the layout goes? It seemed the same to me.
Anyway, the warrior tank that we had wasn’t doing so great, he had troubles holding mobs, but I put that down to the fact that the enhance shammy was in BOA gear. He also didn’t know his way around WC at all, so I figured he was a new player, so I went easy on him. [...]
More thoughts on Efflorescence
Nov 11th
I kept revising my original post and it was getting a bit silly – I can’t keep adding onto it.
I added a part on the end talking about my reasoning for being upset. But I just had a little more that I wanted to say – and rather than tack it onto a post from yesterday, I’ll just quickly put it here.
Audio post: straightening something out
Oct 10th
This is an audio post in response to one that was written about me and my recent post about offensive language. I felt that it misrepresented me and was presented in a snarky, mocking tone, which was unfair. I had closed off the original conversation because I felt that it had run its course, but also because I was constantly wondering if there were new responses/arguments, and it was just getting to the point that I needed to let it go.

Bind on Lazy? Let’s talk BOAs.
Sep 27th
In response to my suggestion of an account-wide BOA interface, Poneria of Fel Concentration ranted that BOAs are pure laziness, and ruin the levelling experience.
(As frequently happens) I was going to leave a reply, but the reply itself ended up being post-length, so I figured I might post it here instead and start up a discussion. [...]
Passive aggressive people drive me NUTS

This is entirely off-topic, but I need to vent. A month ago I started my new job. My boss is paying for an allocated parking space for me (possibly one of the best perks of the job), space number 5 in about 16 spaces. It’s paid for, allocated, all above board. A couple of weeks
My name is Emma and I live in Australia. I’ve been gaming on and off since I was about 11. I won’t tell you exactly how long ago that was, let’s just say long enough.
