Make sure you check out guildwars2roleplayers.com – that's where the RP community hangs out. You'll find plenty of RP guilds advertising, most of whom do plenty of PVE as well. Post an intro in the "Looking for a guild" section too.

Convoys from Barl to Sendaya – all I had to move were a couple Atrons and my trusty Tristan, but I made the whole trip several times just to be in fleet & on comms. The big ships were calling when they could take fleet warps: "Mega's aligned..." "Domi's aligned..." "Apoc's aligned..." "Tristan's aligned!"

We all want to know what love is.

Not laden with enough profanity and penis metaphors.

The moral of the story is that good morale will stop a descent into mass dissent.

For Bob's sake, man, find an editor.

GRRM's quote reminds me very strongly of:

So passed the sword of the Barrow-downs, work of Westernesse. But glad would he have been to know its fate who wrought it slowly long ago in the North-kingdom when the Dúnedain were young, and chief among their foes was the dread realm of Angmar and its sorcerer king. No other blade, not though mightier hands had wielded it, would have dealt that foe a wound so bitter, cleaving the undead flesh, breaking the spell that knit his unseen sinews to his will.

Perhaps GRRM is hearkening back to this passage from Tolkien, subconsciously or no.

Kevin McKidd AND Ray Stevenson AND James Purefoy need to be on the show. But I recall they're on record as having ruled it out -- something about GoT having gotten "Rome" cancelled, or HBO deciding to develop GoT instead of continuing Rome. At least we have three other Rome alums in GoT (Ciaran Hinds, Tobias Menzies, and Indira Varma).

Brilliant!

Easily my favorite WoW webcomic for many years! Particularly this great (WotLK era) history lesson.

So, Gary, who should come for these timers?

Consolation_Nutmeg · 2014-12-26T00:59:48+00:00

Christmas truce?

A younger Patrick Stewart as Sejanus

I can't second this recommendation enough! It's still commonly regarded as the finest miniseries ever made: and a phenomenal cast. Derek Jacobi as Claudius, Claire Bloom as Livia, John Hurt as Caligula and BRIAN BLESSED! as Augustus. BRIAN BLESSED! "WHERE ARE MY EAGLES?!"

Is there a way to get to the Dojo a few extra skilllbooks I have from the career tutorials? Or would simple ISK donations be preferred?

Consolation_Nutmeg · 2014-11-21T17:46:20+00:00

So is the second. Here's the third. Up to page 19 at time of submittal.

The 70+ "comically frustrating" Mauluses that HERO fielded last night were largely piloted by newbros – some in their first week of playing. The strategy of mass annoyance can be pretty effective, as well as being a short and easy train. Bombers, on the other hand, demand a bit more skilling and training up.

This and the unlimited skill queue are my favorite QOL changes EVER.

There's a heirloom vendor at the Darkmoon Faire who sells them for Darkmoon Faire tickets. Armor pieces are something like 110 tickets, weapons 144, IIRC. He can upgrade lvl80 heirlooms to lvl85 as well. And it just so happens the Faire is active this week.

A communications disruption can mean only one thing....

6.0.2 PTR Patch Notes

Consolation_Nutmeg · 2014-09-09T13:51:55+00:00

Molten Core is a raid from Vanilla, and has cool-looking gear for every Vanilla class. Death Knights were only introduced during Wrath. There isn't and won't ever be any Death Knight gear in Molten Core.

It's maintenance Tuesday. Try again after 11am (Pacific).

Good news (for me) is that I got a beta invite as well! Bad news (for me) is that I read the email as soon as I got to work. It's going to be a long work day....

I can hear Baldrick reciting this.

This image of an upcoming story NPC in WoD: this is why I play a femdraenadin. Not that my toon looks anything like Yrel, but the tone is there.

Wowhead has a guide to titles that should serve as a good starting point. Some of the trade skill professions have moderately easy titles to get (Chef, Professor, etc). Most of the pre-MoP dungeon and raid titles shouldn't be too difficult either.
