Death of a Fire Mage

It seems that I’m going for achievements now. As a casual player, I don’t actually have dedicated group where I go for raids, so the majority of the achievements listed have been through the lfd tool.

There’s rules to this type of behavior, though.

1. Do not beg. It’s degrading to you and I.

2. If at first you don’t succeed, we probably do it the easy way.
3. If you ask for something special then criticize the dps/tank/healer, the rest of the group will rethink.
4. If there’s a glitch (I’m looking at you, Hadronox) we should do it. Easier is better.
5. If you’re not the tank and you run ahead all willy nilly messing up said glitch or what have you, then this also may mess stuff up.

The facerolling of Northrend dungeons makes these achievements very possible through lfd because of the simple fact that more than half the players in WoW are Kingslayers now and have the equipment to match it. None of the want to wait around for anything, so the constant speed dungeons and interupts are making a world where things like Less-Rabi is nearly a guarentee and Abuse the Ooze are far less likely.

Recently, I found a group of people who want to do a random a night. By group, I mean RL friends. They know how to twist my arm. The last couple, like Ooze, are because of them.

Maybe before Cataclysm comes in we’ll have all the special achievements done. It’s something to hope for.

So, I have posted so much not because there isn’t much to say, but rather that because I was trying to backup and move the site(s). My hosting time had run out, you see.

The problem therein is: even if I do move, I’d have to redesign and fix up a brand old site. It’s quite a hassle.

So, I’m just going to bite the bullet and pay out.

This is a total laziness fail. It’s also a good indication of my personality.
