    About the Bloggers is a new series on WoW Insider-- twice a week, our writers will tell you a little bit about themselves, and let you get to know them and the characters they play a little better.What's your main right now?A Blood Elf Warlock.For the Horde, or Glory to the Alliance?Now it's "For the Horde!" But, as you can see... I played Alliance for quite a while.Favorite thing to do in Azeroth?Almost anything, so long as I'm playing with friends and not in some awful PUG.What's the best instance in the game?I know it's old school, but I always had the most fun in BWL. Great fights, great lore, and dragons. You can't beat dragons. Well, unless you've got a team of 40 level 60s. Then I guess you can. But it's still a lot of work! What's the number one thing Blizzard could do better?It's a relatively recent problem, but giving the GM's the power to stop hacked characters from clearing out guild banks would be swell.The best way to make money in game is...Quests. I've financed 2 epic flying mounts and several regular flying mounts just by running quests. Additionally, saving money by not having any crafting professions helps...Favorite mount?Onyxien the Onyx Netherwing Drake. You can't beat a dragon.Favorite piece of loot?Hood of the Malefic, hands down. Aside from making you look like that demon guy in Legend, the wings it randomly sprouts are just awesome.When I'm not playing WoW, I'm...Usually messing around in Photoshop, these days. Tales from the Lion's Pride Inn doesn't just create itself, you know! Though that would be sweet.What accomplishment in-game are you most proud of?I'd have to go with the number of characters I have at (or very near) level 70. As of this writing, that number is 6 (almost 7).If you could add one touch of personal flair to your main, what would it be?A better looking beard. My warlock needs something more evil.If you had 10 more hours to play every week, what would you spend them doing?I would spend them wondering what law of physics I had to break to play more than 168 hours a week. My hope is that it's not one of the important laws, and that the physicists don't prosecute.

    Our latest podcast is now available to listen to over on WoW Radio's website-- in it, Chris Jahosky, Turpster, and I all chat about everything there was to chat about in Warcraft the last week. Chris Jahosky of WoW Insider was on, and so we chatted about his being a Paladin, and about his ongoing graphic novel, available right here on the site. We answered a little reader mail, including how to deal with having a non-RP name on an RP server We talked about the new Sunwell deets revealed last week, and what we're excited to see. Apparently 17 hours isn't all that much, when you think about it. And we talked about our best wipes ever. Plus lots more. If you hear something interesting and have a comment, feel free to email us at theshow@wow.com, and let us know what you think about anything and everything.And stay tuned-- the WoW Insider Show goes on the air every Saturday afternoon at 3:30pm EST, so there's just a few more days until you can listen to us live again, and get your audio fill of everything going down in the World of Warcraft.

    The holidays are pretty much in full effect (have you gotten one of those stupid carols stuck in your head yet?), but don't worry-- our podcast will still be live tomorrow to give you a WoW-related discussion break from those holiday blahs. Both I and Chris Jahosky will be on there, and that means we'll finally have to talk about Paladins, as Chris is more or less our Paladin rep here on the site. He's also working on that great graphic novel that we're posting, so we'll talk with him about that as well.And of course we'll also chat about all of WoW Insider's most popular posts of the last week. Join us tomorrow afternoon at 3:30pm EST (and on IRC at irc.mmoirc.org) on WoW Radio for the latest episode of the WoW Insider Show.
