WoW Chix

My little vacation is going well, I guess. I’ve gotten to eat some hella good food (people of the South always have good food) and spend more time with the hubby’s family (which isn’t all that bad). Only thing I would have changed would be having more time to have been able to spend on the site. I did get the writer forums up and running for those that will be submitting content to both sites. But other than that, nothing has really been done.

We are leaving really early tomorrow morning so that we can by home in time for Violet to go to bed early enough for school Thursday morning. I wish I would be able to work on the sites on Thursday and Friday, but because of that Winter Festival thing at Vi’s school, I have to spend those 2 days getting ready (i.e. shopping for mats to make the jewelry that I’m gonna be selling there and actually making the jewelry.) Then on Sunday, I plan to just hang around with Vi and Robby most of the day lounging around watching movies and playing XBOX and what not. So Monday will be my “back to work” day haha.

I did have the chance to log onto my hunter a couple times since I’ve been up here. I didn’t have much time but I worked hard with what time I had and I was able to gain a half a level, so now I’m half way to 63. Yeehaw. The poor Belf is still running around on a normal speed mount haha. I don’t think she will have the money to get her Epic any time soon. When I try to farm for money I just get so ticked at the game and decided to stop. Though all the money that I HAVE farmed on Ame has gone into her enchant that she’s saving up. *sigh* Enough of my bitching about the game now haha.

I’ll try to squeeze in another post before the end of the week. See you guys later!

It’s effing cold up here in North Carolina. We left yesterday afternoon from Florida to come up there for Rob’s business trip. Violet and I decided to come along for the ride. Took us about 9 hours, but all in all, it wasn’t a bad trip.

Anyway, I posted a couple of things on the WoW Forums looking for some writers for both my sites. I got a mailbox full of people that responded; I honestly didn’t expect that many people to be interested. I got some negative feedback but the positive feedback and support was enough to overcome it *smiles* So, within the next week I am going to be a very busy girl (and by that I mean I’m going to working my husband to the bone with this site haha, just kidding *winks).

I am going to find a way to make it so that all my writers can have their own log in to the site to be able to submit their writing on their own instead of them emailing it to me and posting it myself. Also, I’ll be installing more themes so that my writers can have their own blogs on the site to use as they wish. Their actual articles and such will placed on the main news page. *cracks knuckles* It’s gonna be a jam-packed week for me *giggles* I’m a little worried that this won’t work out like I planned or that something will go wrong. But I’m sure that with some great writers and with the help of my handy-dandy hubby, all will be fine *smiles*

As for WoW, I haven’t played in a few days due to getting ready for the trip and such. I had planned on raiding one night last week, but I was sick and stuck in and missed it *cries* What crap. I’ve still got 8 Large Prismatics to farm for *sigh*

Ok kiddies, that is all for now. Keep your eyes open for updates and junk *winks*

I’ve starting my Netherwing dailies and so far they are proving to be a little problematic. The quest where you are supposed to kill all the "tainted" (heh… heh heh… taint… anyway) wildlife in order to get their Fel Glands and then use it with the mutton to poison the peons is a pain in the ass. I sent like an hour farming the glands (horrible effing drop rate) and then went to go poison the peons. I was all excited, thinking to myself, "Alright! More NW rep and monies!" But noooo, I had started out with being able to poison 12 camps (because I had 12 glands, which is what the quest calls for). So I walked around to camps and were "poisoning them" one by one. After the first 3 I was like, "Ok this is cake, Thur was wrong! Ha!" See, Thurlarn had told me that I shouldn’t even bother because the camps will bug out and not let you poison them. I said, "Yeah, yeah. Whatever, I’mma do it anyway." God what a waste of my time Should have listened to Thur; somehow he always manages to be right. (And I know you’re reading this Greg, and I hope you know that I loathe you for being right all the damned time! Haha)

Luckily I found a rather nifty way to do the other quest. The one where you are supposed to gather those relics from the Transponder guys or whatever they are called. It’s not so bad if you know where to stand. The first time I did this quest, it was with Thur (because I had no effing idea what I was supposed to do for any of those quests). We stood at the little dock thingy where those big elite guys are. That went ok for a bit. But when I went back after a couple days to do the quest alone, there were like 15 people waiting in the same spot. So I flew over to one of the floating rock islands and stood there waiting for the guys to fly by. Worked like a charm. You can start to see a flying pattern. You can do this on any of the larger flying rocks between SMV and the Netherwing Shelf. I was able to get my relics inside of 10 minutes. Cake work

As far as the other quests go (the gathering quests and finding the egg) are pretty easy. Just have to keep an eye out for the egg. It likes to hide So it might take some time to find it. But don’t give up, it’s there

Well aside from working out a new theme for the site. I have also been working on my other site from time to time. Apparently, the current theme I’m working with isn’t… working =( So I have to look for a new template. It seems as if every time I start to think that I’ve got something under my thumb and ready to go, something else goes wrong haha. But I learn to deal with it (thank to the help of my genius hubby of course!)

So, the past few days in WoW, I’ve been farming for 8 Primal Lives, 8 Primal Waters, and 8 Large Prismatic Shards. Yeah you guessed it: I’m farming for my Major Healing to Weapon enchant. I need that +81 healing like I need something sugary after sex… and that’s one helluva need. The extra +27 spell dmg isn’t a bad bonus either. I DO have a DPS gear set that has a few extra +spell dmg pieces instead of my +healing stuff. At the moment, I’m using the Shard of the Virtuous as my healing AND as my dmg weapon as well because the last dmg weapon I had only had like +75 spell dmg, but the Shard has +116 AND mana regen AND better stats. So Shard=win! I do some pretty scary Holy dmg. Right now, my Holy dmg is at like 635 or some shit. My fire mage’s fire dmg… 529. Haha I just think that’s funny. Then again Thread is nowhere near as geared as Amedeah is. But still… my priest doing more dmg is kinda funny *giggles*

I’ve gotten all my Primal Waters, thanks to Exdingo (a guildie friend) giving me his last Motes of Water. I am still 2 Primal Lives short and I haven’t even begun to gather the money for the shards that I’m gonna need. They are going for about 22-25g on my server right now. I just recently got my epic flyer and because I ninja’d a couple of my hubby’s blue Jewelcrafting designs from his bank, I’m paying him some extra money on the side to make it up to him, I’m broOoOoOke. But thanks to Thur (another guildie friend) I’ve been able to start my Netherwing dailies over on the Netherwing Ledge. So I’m pretty much able to fill my quest log between my daily cooking quest, Skettis, Blade’s Edge Mountains and Netherwing. So if I really wanted to, I could be pulling in around 300g a day or so (even more if I would bring the mage over to BEM and Skettis daily as well). Just gotta get off my lazy ass and do it haha.

On a more personal note: Today marks 2 years together with Rob!! We met on January 20^th, 2006. We went out and had breakfast this morning and enjoyed each other’s company. It was quite nice =) Smiling at each other through mouths full of food haha. I kept seeing old couples having Sunday breakfast together and thinking to myself, “Gee, I can’t wait to have lived my long and full life with my hubby… and still be grabbing each other’s asses in public!” Haha. I really do wanna be one of those old couples that walks though Wal-mart or Publix going shopping and feeling each other up at the age of 80 haha. I think it’s hilarious.

Well I hope everyone is having a good weekend, I know I am See you on Monday!

Hey gals (and guys)! We are currently working on making a new theme work with the site. I like it quite a bit, but there are some "quirks" that I need to work out so please bear with us and we’ll get it looking shiny in no time! Thanks to the help of my handy hubby, it will go a lot quicker than it would if it was just me working on it, I assure you lol. If you have any idea’s of what you’d like to see on the page, please feel free to email me with any comments, questions or whatever you can think of

All of the WoW gold ads on the WoWChix.com blog have been removed, hurrah.  We did not put those ads up ourselves. We where using the Google adsense service, no matter how many times we added the gold sellers to our banned advertisers list more of them would show up.  So please feel free to check out our new advertisers, I’m sure we’ll have specials and coupons from them soon!!

Here is one to get you girls (and guy or two) started:

Jesster

We are currently working with adsense to get rid of as many of the gold selling ads as possible.  It might take a little longer then we’d like and should have done it sooner, but they will go away soon.

Thanks for understand and being so patient!

There are so many things I want to blog about that are negative tonight. So I will try and focus on the positive instead. It’s not worth it to me to sit here and get even more frustrated by writing about it. So let me talk about some other things.

I bought my epic flyer last night FINALLY! After selling every single thing that had any value at all and scrimping and saving every last copper for it. It’s worth it =) Now I just have to kill Zuluhead the Whacked and I can move on into the next part of my Netherdrake quest chain. A friend tells me that it shouldn’t take too long with all the daily quests and stuff I can do for the rep with the Netherwing. I think tomorrow I’m gonna try to get Rob and Thur to help me out with the group quest. We might need another to help out. Maybe Tony can help. We’ll see.

I went to Kara tonight with Amedeah. We downed Morose, Maiden, Nightbane, and Curator and almost had Shade. But I ended up having to leave early from the raid. I’m not sure if they gave it another shot or not. The Maiden dropped my Shard; I’m happier than a pig in poo. I’ve hoped that stupid thing would drop every time I went there. I had seen it drop just about every time on my mage. But when I brought my Priest along it was never to be seen. So this was the first time and I got it =)

I played Koos a little bit today. I rather hate being Beast Mastery specc, but then again I’m just not used to it and I don’t really think I understand how to use it to my advantage. Not to mention that I just tamed Creep (my Ravager from Hellfire) about a week ago and he’s only seen about 5 hours worth of play time with me so she is only lvl 2 when it comes to how much she likes me. She’s in a pretty nice guild right now. I fit in overly well. Kind of reminds me of Crimson Tears a bit, I’m able to be myself and not worry about getting yelled at for saying the wrong things in guild chat/vent.

I’m thinking about trying to find a way to set up the RSS Feeds for the WoW News to update directly to the site. I need to get together with Rob and see if there is a way I can just make a whole new page for it to auto-post on. I don’t know. We’ll just have to see how that works out.

I think I’m only going to try to raid one more night this week and that will be only to finish Kara. If we don’t finish Kara, I’ve decided that I’m not going to raid the rest of the week. I have other things that I need to focus on and when I make plans in WoW my “other things” never get done =( I’ve been trying to keep up with posts on this site along with posts on my other site (don’t forget to check it out btw! Link is to the right!). I just need to set aside a set time every day where I make a post for each site and do that at least 3 days a week. So that would be 3 updates a week for each site. Not bad I guess.

OoOoOoK then, I’m gonna get going for now. More tomorrow hopefully

Ok, so I decided to write a fictional short story that is set in Azeroth. I made a whole sperate page for it. So look over the right and under "Pages" you can see it. Just click the link to read it It’s only the first part. But I will keep adding it to it so make sure to check back often to see what’s going on in the story! Here’s a small taste:

I’m acting on yet another request made my tribe’s leader, Vol’jin. I’m being sent out into the darkness that is Shadowmoon Valley to retrieve the heart of a Dragonmaw Drake-Rider. One of the small Darkspear’s has fallen ill. She is suffering from fevers and terrible nightmares. In order to make the remedy, one of the witch doctors here needs the heart among a few other things that I can gather along my way. I have never turned down a request made by my elders and I’m not about to start now. I’ve earned the respect and gratitude of my tribe. It is something I treasure greatly and to help pave the road to a new future for our people makes my heart beat with a quickness much like that of the Spirit Wolf.

I think I’d like to move my warlock over from Duskwood to Turalyon. My Shaman is in <Rent to Pwn> and I love it there. The guild master is a fucking comic genius and the people are too much fucking fun to chat with and what not. So I’d probably put her in that guild. I’ve talked to them about it and they seem to be ok with it =) I really like playing her. I love having minions to do my bidding She’s only lvl 42, but I’m hoping to lvl her up so she can play with Rob’s rogue on our current server, he’s 50 atm. Imagine how much ask kicking we could do =O It seems that every duo of character we’ve made have been fucking awesome. First there was the Mage/Shadow Priest combo and my god, we rocked so hard. But then we played his Druid and my Shaman together for a few lvls they were good but not as good as his Druid and my hunter. They were able to take on a lot of mobs with minimal damage. But then came the EPIC Holy Priest/Feral Druid mix and I swear, I could just wet myself from thinking about how hard they effing pwn everything in the game together. We basically did ALL the group quests with just the two of us. We were even able to do most of the 5 man group quests =O Loved it. I love playing with him in the game, we can just tear through so many mobs in such a short amount of time. It’s great fun.

Rob talked about moving his Druid to another server to find a guild that needs a raid tank. Because in our current guild, they don’t need any more raiding tanks and that’s really what he would like to do. But then we wouldn’t have the Holy Feral goodness =( Makes meh sad. I’ll have to bribe him so he won’t go
