Blog Azeroth: The nicest thing anyone's done
Each week, Blog Azeroth hosts a Shared Topic for bloggers to answer on their own blogs and then link to in the forum. This week, frinka from Warcraft Street asks: What is the nicest thing another player has ever done for you in game? I refuse to choose! Well, honestly, when it comes to all the nice things that have been done for me, I don't think I could narrow them down to one if I wanted to. You see, It came from the Blog and sister guild The Insiders are full of wonderful people who have helped me out more times than I can count. From when I first took over as Guild Mother to now, my guildies have been supportive and kind. They are truly some of the nicest people I've ever met. Some of the things they've done: Pets Lots and lots of pets. My IcftB characters are rotten with wonderful and often rare pets. Prizes Any time I'm short on prizes for a contest that we may have during an event, The Insiders and gang help me out. Usually the prizes are more pets. They like pets. Camaraderie Whenever I log on, I'm guaranteed to have people to chat with and join me on outings.
Breakfast Topic: Our community is great, and how it saved my cat
The World of Warcraft community is a special group of people. We've got numbers, diversity, and a ridiculous amount of charity from good people whose tenuous connection to each other is because of a virtual world. Personally, I wouldn't want it any other way. The WoW community does good things. Many of you recently heard about my cat Rocky, who was not doing so well because of a deep infection in both of his ears. Because of the generosity of our community, Rocky's bills were taken care of and we could get him the immediate help he needed. My little buddy is alive because of this community. It's such a trivial thing to worry about in the grand scheme of things, but it personally affected me in such a profound way. Sure, we have our low moments. We have our high moments, too, and it's all worth it. From Blizzard's own charity drives to Child's Play and the community reaching out to help sick children, I'd say we've got a pretty good track record. What has the WoW community done that has affected you personally?
