Facerolling is Bad M’kay

Updated Wed, Apr 20, 2011 by Mem



You know it’s going to happen. It always does. Sometimes by the same person over and over again, or by different people each time. Regardless of if you are instancing with a 5 man PUG or a well oiled raid group, there will always be at least one.

You know who I’m talking about. That person who makes it so obvious that they have no clue what they are doing that it makes most question whether they play by face rolling on the keyboard. That person who has such poor situational awareness that it’s a running joke within the guild. Sure they might be a nice person, but man do they fail.

They stand in fire, gas clouds, and various other nasties on the ground. They can’t do the slime dance, or make the jump to Thaddius in Naxxramas, and you just know that they are going to forget to turn around when Eadric the Pure casts his Radiance. Never mind that a huge warning goes across your screen.



I’m sure that these players do not feel they are in the wrong. Nor do I think that they are failing in this way to be malicious. In fact I’m sure that there are those out there (these face rollers included) that would defend them Maybe pulling out the excuse they are casual players, who don’t have a lot of time, and therefore we should go easy on them. But I think that this excuse is nothing short of a load of Tauren dung.

The old casual player excuse kills me. Mostly because in the last expansions and patches Blizzard has made WoW much more accessible to the casual player. However WoW is never going to be a game where you can just hop on and play. You are going to have to do some work beforehand. The grind, the farming, and other preparations are as much a part of the game as any instance.

Mists of Pandaria -- Pandaren Monk Striking Target Dummy

There have been many rumblings from Blizzard fans that don't really want Mists of Pandaria as the next (or any expansion) and ask the question "Why Mop?"

Mists of Pandaria's launch could happen by the end of the year so what better time to look at what the Collector's Edition could contain?

I finally got myself a Razor Naga (Molten Edition)!

About a year ago, I really wanted a naga mouse for my birthday. However, my girlfriend goes to BestBuy and the jerk working there tells her that I wouldn't like the naga because its too hard to push the buttons on the side. He told her to get me the World of Warcraft mouse (Cataclysm Edition).
