Around Azeroth: Any last requests?
As you can see by this impromptu Dalaran firing squad, Blizzard has found a cheap and effective way to reduce the workload of their GMs. While sanctioned for a wide variety of offenses, this particular punishment is most frequently used for people who link "anal <item or spell>" in trade chat. Also on the drawing table: reducing the penalty volcano with an actual volcano.
Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word "Azeroth" in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards, double-mounts, or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran.Filed under: Screenshots, Around Azeroth, Galleries

It's called gchat.

Why would you be worried about your big brother being involved with anal? It's the new milennium, man, if he wants to hit it from behind, who are you to say he shouldn't?

Hi.
You signed an agreement stating that you would not use profanity on public channels.
Grow up, get over it, stop crying about the 'man' trying to 'get you down'. Welcome to adult hood where your actions have repercussions, possibly legal if you really screw up.
Anal [X] would be funny in small doses amongst friends. The instant you start spamming the community any slight humour it has to the majority goes right out the window and it just annoys people because you're infringing on those of us trying to use trade for trade, or lfg for lfg.
Keep it to the channels that have no rated T rules, or create your own.

WTF is happening in this picture??
Srsly... I don't get what it has to do with Anal [Fishing]..
Dale Feb 27th 2009 11:01AM
What is going on in the pic?
Elizabeth Wachowski Feb 27th 2009 11:10AM
Dale and Leejin, it's a firing squad -- she's cowering in front of a wall with bullet holed-targets behind her.
Sorro Feb 27th 2009 3:21PM
Even knowing that there are bullet holes, I couldn't see them for a long time.
Weird choice.

AyaJulia Feb 27th 2009 11:21AM
It's a Tauren standing around Dalaran doing an emote.
....really?

*sigh* Remember when Around Azeroth didn't evoke a response of "What the heck is that supposed to be?" a minimum of twice a week?
Tim Feb 27th 2009 8:25PM
No
JDM Feb 27th 2009 4:45PM
XD This is the first time ever that I didn't understand the point of the image/caption. Read it over and over, but nothing. The comments enlightened me, though.
Tim Feb 27th 2009 8:17PM
Last night on Durotan there were some great Anal expressions. then someone reported all of them.
I said "im 22 and I think the anal jokes are hilarious."then someone called me a liar and immature. Anal [shield slam]
