Sorry this is only the second most awesome thing in the game. The first most awesome thing in the game is the pug dog non-combat pet.
I guess that's cool and all, if that's what makes the game relaxing and entertaining.

Personally I'd much rather allow all genders and then force people to behave themselves or leave.

Someone used Jew in my guild the other day as an epithet. After calling them on it (and then explaining what an epithet was) they seemed surprised that anybody cared. Then they stopped doing it. Sometimes it's just ignorance. (I've been a teenage boy.)

- isn't high latency bad, or have I been using the word wrong this entire time?
Came here to say this.
My guildies laugh at me for how I've gone on and on about getting this pet.

I will solo heroic dungeons with four afk bad players if necessary for it. This little puggy will be mine. Oh yes. It will be the last pet anybody sees me with, even if I continue to gain others.

Regarding the weird leg animation: That's either a bug in the animation the way MMO-Champion extracted it, or in the game files themselves. It's sure to be fixed.

Pugs for the win.
Clearly you've never met a pug dog. If you had, you'd be under their permanent spell like my family.

I'm a second generation pug owner and my kids are third generation pug owners.

Here's my pug as a puppy, about to sleep on my wife's slipper.

You use Fishing Buddy in order to allow you to cast your lure merely by right clicking on water. This saves about 50% wrist movement, in my opinion.

That's the #1 thing it does, at least for me.
See, I'm the exact opposite. I've been playing this game since open beta. To me, Bolvar Fordragon is who stood in as the regent of Stormwind for the majority of the time I've been playing, while Varian's son was the King.

Bolvar Fordragon is who listened when everybody else wanted to obery Lady Prestor. He's who fought Onyxia and her minions single-handedly (face it, the guards who weren't Ony's minions did next to nothing) after sending Anduin running for safety. He won and she had to flee.

He's who the whored (you heard me) had to kill in Stormwind, because he was the leader of the alliance.

He shows up again in Northrend of course, and at the time I didn't realize he'd play such a huge part. At the time it was just kinda cool. He even says something to the effect of not having forgotten what I'd done for him, etc. That was awesome.

So when he (seemingly) died at the Wrathgate, I felt like I'd been punched in the gut. I'm not normally a role player, you have to work pretty hard to make me care about a character in a video game, but somehow Blizzard managed it with Bolvar Fordragon.


So hang in there Bolvar. We're coming. You and I are going to tea bag Arthas together.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
