I've been mining for questions all night because of the Rebecca Black fiasco. I promise a drama-free Queue today.
gundrenthehunter asked:
Question: Whats your guys favorite mini pet? everyone has one, with mine being the deathy.
I am partial to my Core Hound Pup and Moonkin Hatchling. Both are adorable and have more polygons than a night elf male.

I read that Blizzard has banned a large amount of accounts for botting - gathering, a speed archeology hack, and BG honor farming.
I've been looking around forums all morning, revelling in the tears of cheaters who finally got caught.
This is truth -- it is making the rounds that Blizzard has banned a whole bunch of botting accounts in the past 48 hours of so. These types of bans are usually done batch-style at the same time of the year, and it looks like the new March Madness is banning botters. Remember, kids, if you don't get banned right away for cheating, they'll find you eventually when they get around to the big batch ban.
Aarcial asked:
What is the touring schedule for Mike Sacco and the Saccos? Come to Iowa!
If you wish hard enough, anything is possible.
sheyki asked:
What in the world is Maloriak exactly?
Maloriak is some form of black dragon construct-looking dude. Wowpedia lists him as a type of dragonkin called a dragonman, one of the black flight's weird denizens. The do have an awful lot of weirdos in that flight, don't they?
My 10-man thinks he looks like Ash Ketchum. Think about it.

He clearly cooked that on one of the many basic campfires I leave on his chair.

@AudreyR - I think you're on to something there. We need to start a WoW wide campaign to replace Garrosh with a basic campfire. I'm logging on right now to start it on my server; anyone reading this should do the same.

Dear Mat,
Adam hates us, and delights in our suffering. What should we do?

To crush him, see him driven before us, and hear the lamentations of his alts.

Why do I keep click on these link, I just know it going to lead to something that will kill brain cells and yet....
ecwfrk Mar 16th 2011 10:21PM
I yearn for the good old days when people used to link to far less disturbing things like goatse, pain4 or a Japanese woman stomping on kittens. Now I click a link in a comment and don't sleep for a week because I'm scared The Trololol man is hiding in my closet.
Silversol Mar 17th 2011 4:58AM
"Why do I keep click on these link, I just know it going to lead to something that will kill brain cells and yet...."
I think it starts with the first click... just plain out of curiosity you clicked a link *BAM* dead brain cells. All the clicks after that are the result of not having enough brain cells to tell you "HEY, don't do that!"
I too, am a victim.

best pet by far is my Murkimus the Gladiator. I have over 100 pets but he is the one I always pull out.
Devo_AS Mar 16th 2011 11:30AM
The Scorched Stone (fire elemental) is my favorite and is always out on my Warrior. Unfortunately 2 years ago the one time it dropped, a damn dirty guild mage took it from my Elemental Shaman to go towards his pet achievement and then last year he was replaced with the Ice Chip. So I will seemingly never be able to have a mini Fire Elemental at my side at all times :(
I hate Mages!
Ringo Flinthammer Mar 16th 2011 11:42AM
He has the least animations of any of the murloc pets, unfortunately. I'd say he comes in behind Murky/Lurky/Gurky, but is tied with Deathy and is definitely ahead of poor Grunty, the noisiest murloc of them all.

I think I'm still partial to my Mountain Dew battle bot. I know it's filthy pandering to a money-grubbing brand name, but I used to get a kick out of watching them zip around Dalaran and fight, especially when several of one color would gang up and battle several off the other color. I still have a few stacks of fuel in my bank, but alas, no one to dual.
