I've never understood why they don't just give us realistic estimates from the beginning, I would be much happier if they told us realms would be down until 4pm or something, and then be surprised when they come up at 2pm instead.
afaik the only business in the history of the world to employ this technique is Cedar Point amusement park

Never been there, and I seem to have outgrown my enjoyment of roller coasters (last one I went on was Storm Runner in Hershey Park, and I nearly blacked out for some reason, I think that's what turned me off). I'm sure I would've greatly enjoyed being pleasantly surprised by the times being less than stated though back when I did like roller coasters. Of course, at a certain point I guess you might start expecting the wait time to be less than what they tell you, and then when it actually is as long as they tell you it's disappointing. So I don't know, maybe that's not the best way either, maybe we should be left completely in the dark about how long it will be.

Some reading material while I'm waiting, cliffs from the first post: guy sits on rank 1 3s team for basically the whole season, gets "hacked" (not really hacked but that word has lost its true meaning by now), and team is disbanded. Guy that did it apparently used a fake ID and did a lot of talking to Blizz to get past the authenticator and everything, and both the victim and the "hacker" are from the UK. Sounds like the "hacker" was worried about going to jail before he did it. Now they apparently know who did it, so I wonder if anything legal will happen.

Reading the first page, it sounds like the thread is going to end up just being a debate about whether or not it's "ok" to sit on a team for the whole season after getting to an adequate ranking. I don't really see why that wouldn't be ok. If you're rank 1 and not worried about the people behind, there's no reason to play and risk losing. People seem to have a big problem with that though, I don't really get it.

Edit: Looks like the alleged "hacker" was on the rank 2 team.

I'm probably just gonna raid without addons tonight. Don't think I have enough time to get everything set up since I've gotta run out for a little in about a half hour.

Yeah I tried doing that and was getting maybe 4 fps, I didn't actually look at the number though. So I'll probably have to go through and manually add them back one by one sometime tomorrow

Made about 5000g in glyphs in 2 hours, then some douche came and ruined the party and tanked every glyph on the market to 40g.

That sucks. At least with that price you can consider going for a buy out on his stock.

40g still has profit so I guess it's better then nothing, but absolutely not worth my time managing hundreds of glyphs to make ~20g per sale.

Well, thats the thing, he was posting those 2g glyphs when the next lowest was 200g.

Only problem is they're not selling at 200g, despite being to cheapest option. So meh

Damn, nice. I haven't fired up WoW since well before we last talked about it in. Just don't have the time to devote to it anymore.
