Yeah, I was going to say something similar, but you beat me to it. The idea that a so-called "technical writer and publisher of novels" would hold that misguided and ill-considered tome of...

Indeed, this is a very good point. The Alliance is made up of entirely independent kingdoms which merely happen to be allied (hence the "Alliance"). In fact this is very well demonstrated in the book...

Not to put too fine a point on it, but yes, you appear to be missing quite a lot. Many of the things you've said so far have been mildly inaccurate, to put it politely. The thing about being players...

Bear in mind that the cloud tracking ability was only added after the fact. Initially the ability allowed you to see the invisible clouds in Netherstorm, which corresponds quite neatly with the 350...

You say that, and yet I had more fun in the old AV than I have done in any battleground since. Sure, it had its problems, and the insanely long queues to get into insanely long games were one of...

The thing is, Blizzard has a rather unique oppurtunity here, and they've quite demonstrably made good use of it. These events are themselves supposed to be unique. And yet here we are experiencing...

Mmm, I had the same thing when I was doing WC. If you notice, there's also a little drop down menu, with the only option being 'Floor 1'. A guildie of mine had earlier mentioned that when he was...

I encountered the same thing. Checking my character sheet revealed that all my stats were 0, except strength and either int or spirit (I forget which), and I had 0 armour. For me, relogging didn't...

Regarding the faction leader immunity, we actually successfully managed to infect Vol'jin a few hours ago on Neptulon-EU, so I'm not sure if only some of them are immune, or if they're merely...

Ah, but that's just it. Armour gets replaced every time you hit a new tier of content. And some of that armour will naturally come from crafting, whether from BoP crafter-only pieces, or raid-drop...

The interviews also told us that the 25-man set would be approximately one tier above the 10-man set. Are you honestly saying that going from T5 to T6 gained you a total of 3 stamina? It's not even a...
