The Queue: Monday, the day after Sunday

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.

This is one of those mornings where I simply do not have anything creative to put into the introductory paragraph of The Queue. Days like this were what sparked that whole hey, remember X cartoon from the 80s/90s? thing we were doing for awhile there. Today I can't even think of a cartoon to plug! Instead, have a picture of Olivia's pandaren being adorable. Nobody can hate that.

taco.heuts asked:

Probably been answered before, but the individual reputation of the Tillers, can it only be raised by digging up the dark soils, or are there other ways?

Sometimes you'll get a daily quest for a specific member of the Tillers, but that isn't a reliable way to raise your affection with those people. Beyond the dark soil items, your go-to for raising rep with these folks is cooking. Everyone you're raising reputation with likes a specific dish. You cook up 5 of each particular dish and turn it in for a healthy rep boost.

@kaoskongo asked:

Do the Pandarin say anything about their miniaturised versions being used as pets by the rest of Azeroth? :(

No, they're totally cool with it. See, the mini pandaren monk pet is actually a robot, like the mechanical gnome. The vendors selling the thing just didn't tell you that, which has resulted in numerous lawsuits. The manufacturers didn't use flame retardant material for the adorable exterior of the robot, so they have a habit of catching a flame and turning into warbling hellbeasts as the fire consumes their voicebox.

Terrifying all around.

I think you and some of the other people at Wow Insider really need to stop telling other people what to buy, do and think... Wow Insider: a PR marketing extension of Gaming company profiles that appear on their write ups? Starting to believe this to be the case more and more...

Breaking news: People who write about video games like playing video games and like to talk about video games. Shocking, I know.

Justin asked:

So which Dragon do you think will go crazy in an attempt to get their aspect powers back?

Nozdormu.
