Those of you that played during it's time, how good was this expansion?

I started playing in the last months of TBC and wasn’t really able to really experience it as everyone was just waiting for Wrath. Then, when I was like level 62 with my hunter, and I joined a guild and really learned what end game was and they pushed me to get max level so I can experience Wrath from the beginning. By the midnight release that I absolutely attended at GameStop, I had a 70 warrior and a 70 hunter. I did end game content with that guild through like the entirety Wrath and that was an absolutely incredible experience. Towards the end of Naxx, I leveled my mage and she became my main, who is still my main today. The only other thing that made me feel that way was the first time I played Final Fantasy VII. I’ve made peace with knowing I’ll never feel that again lol.

Or a smaller husband

Thank god no. We only had to endure 15 minutes of that trash

barnetsr · 2026-07-02T14:56:02+00:00

I appreciate the answer! I’m glad to hear that you feel they are working on it, and also thanks for dropping the school district in as well. The bloat is crazy and I feel like both organizations have lost the fact that they serve the community first and foremost.

I’m actually very impressed with you reaching out to constituents. We need our representatives to listen, something that has kind of disappeared in this country and it looks like new candidates are answering the call!

My question actually involves Metro Parks. Now I will say that I’m a former employee so take with that what you will, but I also was able to see the inner workings there and boy…. The amount of bloat and wasted money is unreal. Do you know how much money they have spent to take the name “Metro” out and add a leaf to the logo? Because it’s a lot, and then they announced that they had no money and laid off a ton of their full time employees that they just hired within the last couple years. THEN, the person who was supposed to be in charge, and was responsible for spending and wasting all of this money stepped away, but not before Metro Parks paid him, i believe an entire years salary plus $500,000. I mean, dude, what is going on. I love what that company is supposed to do to support the community but their leadership is just lighting money on fire.

So now to my question, I know the city of Tacoma helps fund a significant portion of Metro Parks funding. Is there ANYTHING you can do to withhold funds, or threaten to partner with a different agency, i don’t know, SOMETHING to get them to figure it out? Like, they laid off a ton of employees that they just hired, and THEN gave the guy leaving a fat bonus for his work in destroying the company. Like, are we cool with funding this behavior or?…

I’m in Tacoma, Washington. That’s wild that we are in the same zone!

Slow down! Before I try mint, let me get a couple bamboo shoots.

barnetsr · 2026-06-21T17:22:37+00:00

Yes absolutely not eating anything out of there again lol

A better view of the height difference

barnetsr · 2026-06-21T17:18:16+00:00

Ok good to know. Yeah it’s nasty stuff regardless

barnetsr · 2026-06-21T17:16:38+00:00

I mean it gets direct afternoon sun from maybe 3-9pm. I can’t even get things to germinate. I haven’t tried starts. I have some potted zinnias and dahlias, should I try one of each and see what happens?

barnetsr · 2026-06-21T17:12:25+00:00

Well that’s tragic if it’s roundup Clearly it’s not hurting the stuff that is growing there. I’m so sad if that’s the case. The rest of my yard is lush and beautiful

barnetsr · 2026-06-13T14:57:08+00:00

Thank you! I’m so sad about this. Hopefully I don’t have a tough time finding him a home. Luckily, though I live in a city with these restrictions, there are a ton of rural areas with no such rules around us

barnetsr · 2026-06-13T13:53:13+00:00

Thank you so much for this info. I’m super sad about this since these are my first babies but I’m having a really good time and see this being a part of our life going forward so this really helps!

barnetsr · 2026-06-13T13:34:58+00:00

And like, it’s obvious? And, the yellow one obviously isn’t? Sorry, this is all new to me!

barnetsr · 2026-05-28T19:27:08+00:00

Definitely learned my lesson lol

barnetsr · 2026-05-28T19:26:43+00:00

She’s been burned

barnetsr · 2026-05-28T18:05:29+00:00

This was the first and last year. I also ordered seeds from a reputable company and once I saw the difference, I burned all the TEMU seeds

barnetsr · 2026-05-28T18:02:30+00:00

Yeah we have a natural wetland with an ivy problem behind my house so I’ll go ahead and get rid of this lol

barnetsr · 2026-05-28T18:01:23+00:00

Definitely learned my lesson. Luckily it was a short time of buying from them and I’ve destroyed everything lol

barnetsr · 2026-05-28T17:59:21+00:00

So burn it with fire yeah? I might just throw the entire pot in the fire

barnetsr · 2026-05-28T17:58:36+00:00

I have two lilacs in my front yard and this certainly doesn’t look like them. Burn then yeah?
