The Lawbringer: Gambling in World of Warcraft

Sep 2nd 2011 3:51PM (WoW)
Gambling or running a casino in game is NOT against the ToS, as of roughly two years ago.

Blizzard has said several times since the initial ban in 2005 that you CAN run them, however you are not allowed to advertise in public chat channels.

Addon Spotlight: Best. Addons. Ever. -- The Bestening

Aug 18th 2011 5:07PM (WoW)
@Thrasher Claiming someone who uses addons will always best someone who doesn't is absurd and without merit. Addons may help some be more aware of what is going in a raid or pvp environment, but that certainly doesn't make them better than another who uses zero addons.

Gold Capped: Staying ahead of inflation

So one random website tells you something and you believe it? I suggest you do a little of your own research. shadowstats.com is nothing more than tin-foil hat garbage with no data to back up their conclusions.

Gold Capped: Staying ahead of inflation

@emberdione "The amount created is far greater than the amount "lost" though. Think about those repair bills."

There is absolutely no way to prove that. Without the actual data, it's easy to make an argument that there's more lost than created.

WoW Rookie: Patch 4.1 for rookies and casual players

Apr 28th 2011 9:01PM (WoW)
What are you talking about? They needed to get more tanks and healers to queue for random dungeons and so far the change is doing exactly that. Going from 30 minutes for a dps wait pre-patch to 11-15 post, it was a brilliant move by Blizz. Unfortunately there will be idiots that think they know more than the company that made the game. Fortunately, Blizz doesn't listen to them/you.

Quicksilver appears to be coming back from the dead

Apr 18th 2011 4:15PM (TUAW.com)
Nice to see Quicksilver alive and kicking. Even without continuous development, it still worked better for me than Alfred or Launchar. I toyed around with moving on, but there isn't anything better.

Alfred was nice, but it's too simple for my tastes. LB is more powerful than Alfred, but neither comes anywhere close to Quicksilver. Not to mention that it's lighter than LB and much quicker.

Alfred will never be as powerful as QS, simply because that's not the dev's intention. He made it to be as dead simply as possible.

You should try QS first before speaking. When it comes to file launchers, Alfred is as simple as it gets. If you want something that has a couple more features than Spotlight, great. But to say Alfred is better than QS....that's just stupid. Despite being dead in the water for years, QS is still more powerful than anything available.

Patch 4.0.6 hotfixes for Feb. 8

Feb 9th 2011 9:06PM (WoW)
drspaceman....are you an idiot? The hotfixes were applied, posted by blizz, and reported by every other wow blog on the 8th. One blog post on the 9th means nothing.

Shifting Perspectives: Gearing your feral cat for raiding

Feb 6th 2011 11:32PM (WoW)
You need to read some patch notes man. As of right now, it's not great. When the patch lands (which he specifically notes in his list), Unheeded Warning will be the best thing you can get outside of a couple drops in raids. It really isn't even close either.

As far as stat priority, Agi is by far and away the best for feral cats. Mastery is a distant second. The only thing Crit is better than is Haste. I won't even mention Hit or Expertise, as both are completely useless right now, unless you are stick on interrupt duty.
