The Queue: The one with a pun

Welcome back to The Queue, the daily Q&A column in which the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Alex Ziebart will be your host today.

Get excited, people.

Vector asked:

Is anybody else super bummed that the new Guild episode released today is only available on XBL? I mean, I can watch it when I get home from work, but what percentage of the MMO community is missing out because of this?

It's only a short delay. I believe the episode will be available for all audiences on Thursday (that's tomorrow.) Considering Microsoft sponsors the show and it's the company that allows it to happen, I think it's reasonable for Microsoft to get a little exclusivity out of the deal. In other words, without Microsoft and XBL, we'd all be unGuilded.

walkerspace asked:

Am I a bad person for killing Karkin?

Yes. Absolutely. You probably shouldn't do that!

styopa asked:

Has there been ANY whisper of response from Blizzard on the idea of reputation shared across toons on the same side on the same server? (Or at least make the reputation rewards/purchaseable gear BoA?) They've done a good job of removing 'silly grindy bits' for everything except reputation.

I don't think the developers have ever said anything about this. I'm all for reducing grinds, but there comes a point where you're just asking for characters after your first to be automated. Should everything transfer from one character to the next? Probably not. Where do you draw the line? Reputation? Levels? Gear?

I don't think Blizzard would transfer rep across characters, but it might. Who knows?

chriskinzey asked:

I got killed by Deathwing in Arathi Highlighands the other day. Does Deathwing torch the major cities (Stormwind, Orgrimmar, etc.) like he does the other areas?

No.

juxul asked:

At what time does auctioneer Hesse in the Dwarven District of Storwind change into his worgen form?

Auctioneer Hesse's transformation is timed to exactly match Azeroth's day/night cycle. He transforms into a worgen at 9:00 p.m. server time and reverts into human form at 5:30 a.m.
