"if horde played well, they could overcome an unfair map and beat alliance scrubs that don't know how to use the map to their advantage"
AV is in no way balanced.

The new toyota commercial where the wow guys summon a tacoma and go fight ony/nef in plaguelands its pretty funny. I wonder if I can get that tacoma mount with the purchase of a new truck

I have 341 brewfest tickets... almost to my mount.

I respec'd to 31/30 warrior. Mainly MS and Deathwish/Flurry. It's fun. What would be a good spec to have to dps kara (i know i won't be great at it) and still do good in pvp? This one is working well for pvp and okay for pve.

I am pretty much doomed as far as tanking kara goes. I've been in 2 guilds over here and I've been number 5 tank in both with only 2 kara groups. I've only got one kara drop and it was a dps cloak from moroes. QQQQQQ. I just want a kara team! someone take me with them! I'll friggen transfer to you if you can guarantee me a MT or OT position in kara. I'm pretty-well geared for kara for having no kara gear.

the keg thing is every 12 hours and doesnt count as a "daily quest" (10/day) but the barking does.

I'd assume 51 point talents. Rogues need a talent for passive chromatic resist. 40 point talent in combat, 5 points 30 resist per school per point.

So I read today that not only are the season 3 weapons gonna require 1850, but the shoulders are gonna require 2000. I would try to verify this, but I cant get the WoW website to load on this old as shit computer. It was nice to read that you will get the set bonuses finally though if you mix different seasons gear.

the biggest upgrade you can do to your PC to improve the performance of WoW for you will be to up your system to 2GB of RAM. WoW is more RAM intensive than video card intensive

ive had tons of friends over the years (esp in BC) complain about stuff loading slow (seeing shadows before players/npcs), choppy graphics etc. they all had good graphics cards but changing from 1GB to 2GB+ fixed their problems every time. so hopefully it does the same for you.

shat would just put my PC to a halt sometimes.

then sometimes i would be randomly doing nothing, just sitting afk, and my PC would just start grinding and turn my game into a lag fest for the next 10 mins.

its because wow is coded in a piss poor manner.

not really. Its because an MMO requires a ton of background storage. You have all that gear and all those stats on your character that need to be computed and displayed along with everyone else in the immediate area and any NPCs. And combine this with the need to load models for all these characters after you figure out what gear they have.

Its not like an FPS where the textures, models and everything you're going to need for the game are precached at the start. Because the characters and the environment are dynamic, so is what you're going to need to load. And if you go from say shat to the middle of org you're pretty much going to need to dump and reload everything thats cached. The environment and NPCs are all different and the player characters are mostly different.

Wow is probably one of the better coded MMos out there.

wow doesn't cache any textures on your video card, so the game "scales well." that is what pisses me off. sure the terrain, models, etc change, but a lot of the textures are reused and upping video memory does absolutely nothing from what I've experienced playing this game on several different cards. even changing video cards doesn't to one with almost double the flops nets something like 5-10% fps increase (maybe 2.5-5fps in my case going from a 6800 vanilla to a 7900gt) cpu cache and ram are all that I have seen improve game performance even somewhat significantly and that's only because it keeps wow out of the page so much, which is really just improving transition performance and not constant performance.

[Edited on October 9, 2007 at 6:02 PM. Reason : I play with 1gb of ram and wow takes up 400mb no matter what. I often have 400ish free when playing]
