Did someone accidentally engage the wayback machine?

That was me. Sorry. My incredulity over the incoming Panda expansion got the best of me.

I'm not sure what's so incredible about it. WoW has always done silly better than serious anyway.

Yes, but it's always been silly overlaying a bed of seriousness, not in-your-face blathering my little pony story lines.

I'm sure there will be a bed of "seriousness" under this too. You're making assumptions about the storylines that seem sort of unfounded to me.

Yes, there is a bed of their hilariously terrible brand of "serious" under the silly in this expansion too. Go figure.

Hey, did I stumble into WoW General from six months ago or something?

Pandas are awesome and I continue to be as baffled by "but it's PANDAS" as the refrain as I was 6 months ago.
In other news I'm really hoping it doesn't come out until September so I can play a bunch of Diablo this summer rather than getting in to another xpac.

In other words, shut the frack up. |

They're jumping the shark for sure. Talking Pandas are way dumber than talking cows or wolves. I'm just killing time until ME3 and SWTOR come out anyway, then I'm done with WoW. |

That is quite possibly the funniest* post you've made here. Congratulations!  *Intentionally funny, I mean. |

Well, it was used as the April Fool's joke, which by definition is farfetched silly shit that normally (whatever is normal at the time) makes everyone think "Whew, it's only a joke".
And now ... it's real.
For me, WoW has always risen or fallen by its Barrens chat index. I can't imagine this doing anything to raise that score.

Orcs are cool. I'd love to have an Orc sticker. And a time machine.

Oh noh, my manliness is being dissed. Whatever will I do?! None of the girls will go to the prom with me and nobody will think I'm cool!
Can we drop the high school-grade bullshit now?

I'd say the last couple pages would be den worthy, but that's just me  |

Chill out, man. I'm just kidding around with you. I'd say the last couple pages would be den worthy, but that's just me Yes, god forbid anyone would: A. think something Blizzard is doing is fucking nuts and voice said opinion, B. go against popular opinion, and C. have fun with a conversation. |

Yep, I've not had any problems in heroics (even ZA/ZG) due to asshattery or extreme incompetence, really. But then, I play a blood DK and pretty much solo some bosses. I stopped running LFD on my dps and healer character (just do LFR), though.
I've also not seen many people at all being jerks to others in LFD party chat since very early Cata (and trollroics). In fact, I've had some interesting/amusing conversations in HOT dungeons, and sometimes the group (of 4 random cross-server strangers) stayed together for 3-4 further dungeons to let the good times roll or something.
There's still a fair whack of douches in the HoT heroics, but not so many as to make the experience horribad. As a tank I tell them to STFU or FO, and as a DPS I just mutely blow things up. The ZA/ZG heroics were class-H Horrible, mostly because they're long, tedious and no-one seem to know what to do in them or where to go (including myself, to be quite honest). They're a big part of why I avoided doing non-HoT heroics on my warrior once I hit HoT level, even though I wanted the STA/tanking trinket from Stonecore. That and DPS DKs etc saying that they wanted the trinket as well.  |

Coming home to this thread after work today is almost as good as coming home to the tipping thread in politics yesterday. Almost.

A poster signed by Richard Garriot, Brad McQuaid, Marc Jacobs and SmerricK Dart. Of course it would arrive a couple years late, missing letters and a picture but it would be epic none the less. -Tmon

They've ever been serious? It was funny when Bilzzard actually had a sense of humor. |

It appears to be about Blizzard from alternate universe where MLP story lines are "in-your-face blathering". |

No email was sent to me, but upon logging into my Bnet account this morning, the MoP beta was there. I signed up after the mid-April date, so if you're like me in being a last-minute annual pass sign-up, check your shit |
