I am going to make a public apology to Noodle for my asshole post. It was mean and I shouldn't have posted it. Now I am not even sure why I did since I don't post here much other than the WoW guild forum. Noodle, I am sorry, can you find it in your heart to forgive me?

I read this more as, "I want to mythic raid but continue to log in only for raids while my officers do all the real work that a mythic guild requires like constant recruitment, keeping up the guild bank, minimizing drama, and keeping up morale." Go join a mythic guild already or shut the fuck...

You may want to read the Bogleheads wiki then ask questions in the same forum.

We are finally moving to Git (Collabnet Git plugin, GitEye as the client) from SVN before January 2017 and my team is the first to migrate. I have to say my IT department is so backwards that I am pleasantly surprised when a team uses any source code control at all here.

After flex raiding I have no desire to go back to fixed # raiding just for mythic. It's so nice to be able to continue raiding when people have to log off or can't show up randomly. I dealt with the stress of maintaining fixed roster sizes in vanilla -> Wrath and it sucks having to constantly...

Anyone else a passive index investor? My AA at age 40 is: 50% domestic stock (I need to consolidate the S&P and Small cap into Total Market, those two were some of my first index purchases years ago) FSTVX - Total US Market FSRVX - REIT FUSVX - S&P 500 FSSVX - Small Cap 20% international...

Many years ago our (now deceased) Pug had an itching issue where she rubbed a huge patch of her fur raw. We switched her to a grain-free dog food and the problem disappeared immediately. What dog foods have you tried? We feed our current dogs this one: Grain Free - Pure Vita - Natural...

For the past few years at both work and home I've used an adjustable standing desk and take ~15 minute sit breaks here and there. Personally I find it alleviated all of the issues (including concentration lapses and sleepiness) that I had with sitting for long periods of time. This is the one...

I really enjoyed raiding in vanilla, although it took a toll on life due to the severe time commitment. We spent 7 evenings a week with our guild and the people didn't change much as we progressed from AQ20-> Naxx. We made friends that we met in real life and still keep in touch with today...

I was Else the Ret/Holy and occasional Prot Pally in WoD. Looking forward to the minivan raids again, those were really fun while they lasted. I decided to try a shaman this expansion as I have not played one before. I'm a little behind due to being on vacation when Legion launched and just...

If anyone on Leviathan is looking for a casual adult Level 8 FC, check us out! Mostly Rerolled folks from the guild on WoW Hyjal. We'll probably do whatever raid content there is 1-2 times per week. Message any of the following for an invite: Elsebet Steinen Agrias Hyral Tadrien Arunat...

Only death (minivan raid) can pay for life (Noodle's spawn).

We had a new Warrior (had a green leaf icon) in a low level dungeon. Only thing he did was pull and attack 1 mob, the rest went to the WHM. I tried to tell him nicely a few times that he needed to use Overpower and keep aggro on all the mobs but he never responded. Did the entire dungeon that...

I played Avatar MUD when I was in college. I was a rogue and I liked how I would start the fight by backstabbing the mob, then the ranger would rescue me and tank. Occasionally it failed and I went to the cloud!

Don't forget the weekly challenge log!Gives big bonuses just for doing stuff you'd normally do like Fates, dungeons, guildhests, leves, etc.

Definitely agree, I'd love to see levelling removed entirely and all of that time/effort spent on creating deep and interesting endgame content. I would love to see a single character system where after an introductory lesson on the basics of your character, you could go run endgame quests and...

I'll make a linkshell for us, maybe we can look for a free company to join too. Mike is Agrias Hyral, add him too.

Anyone on Leviathan? Mike and I are goofing around in this now. We have a WHM/Paladin with relics and some early Coil gear. Mike wants to play Ninja though so we'll probably work on that while getting our story done and some Duty Finder gear.

I like the idea of tanking being like a toggle stance or type of CC that anyone can perform, just in a different way. For example a monk type class might grapple and pin down their opponent(s). A mage might summon one or more illusions to distract a target or targets. A healer might calm or...

I will Ret dps for you guys on Wednesdays, add me Elsebet#1739. I like your guild.

Logs for tonight's Normal BRF, my second tanking outing. Learned a lot. Warcraft Logs - Combat Analysis for Warcraft

I like FFXIV except the end game, 8 man Coil feels too small for end game raids. When we played we actually had a hard time keeping a static going since it's hard/impossible to have a bench for an 8 man. WoW's flex raiding is a great solution for that right now. As long as you have 10 you can...

Me too.My first Mythic cache gave me a Warforged tanking cloak and my heroic Highmaul cache gave me a tank trinket (Pol's), so my tank set is 679 now, up from 671 last week. Sat May 16 and 30 I will only be at the raid for the first hour or so as I have volunteer commitments again.

I hated Shadowlands also and eventually quit because of it. I loved AO because it was a gritty, dirty sci-fi world and Shadowlands was high fantasy. Going from flying to walking sucks, much like WoD in WoW right now. I'm not sure why devs think that is a good idea ever. It's like having a...

I changed the calendar entry for just this Saturday's raid to 6pm server (PST) - 9pm EST. Everyone ok with that?

I'd much prefer Saturday evenings, a lot of my volunteer work is done on Saturday mornings. Mike agrees, so that is +2 for Saturday evenings.

Logs for Saturday's Heroic BRF:Warcraft Logs - Combat Analysis for Warcraft

This is kind of what we plan to do. I set my retirement date for Aug 1, 2032 the day I turn 55. At that point I want to move somewhere cheaper (we live in an expensive area) then take an RV around the states. When that gets boring (and depending on finances and if we have dogs still) I'd like...

I find tracking calories works best for me. I use an this site/app:Sign In I will go about six months tracking my calories really well and lose weight. Then I get lazy and think I can control things myself and extra calories start slowly trickling in. A few months later I realize my jeans...

I played the NES version of Shadowrun as well as the pen and paper RPG. I might try this out just for fun.

I think people just have a bad day sometimes. I know our last Saturday heroic BRF I was derping all over the place and I felt like I shouldn't be raiding anymore. Instead I dropped my healing spec, picked up tanking and tanked a BRF LFR. It really freshened things for me seeing things from...

I hope it's not colic. A co-worker had a colicky baby, he had to stay up until the wee hours of the morning rocking him until he'd finally quit screaming and fall asleep. Hours and hours of pure screaming with no remedy. He put him in a car seat and rocked it with his foot while he played...

I'm 671 in my tank set. Big holes are a tanking cloak and 1 trinket, otherwise I'm in decent shape but I'll probably take a bit more damage than Poid/Noodle/Antidotes. Practiced on dummy and in a dungeon today, will do LFR tomorrow and get more practice in through the week.

I have a 670-ish tank set and honestly since I enjoy Ret so much I'll probably be a better tank on this Paladin than I am a healer. For some reason I'm just not enjoying the Holy Paladin, nor am I very good at it compared to how I used to perform with the Disc/Holy Priest. I'd like to try...

Log for Friday's normal BRF:Warcraft Logs - Combat Analysis for Warcraft

Please, please, please for the sake of our honey bees and water systems do not use weed and feed. Strengthen your soil and grass so it can out-compete the weeds. Get your lawn dethatched and aerated, broadcast seed, and spread a 1/2 inch of compost over it. Get a soil test and adjust the ph...

I'll set something up on the calendar to run through the old MoP raids. I skipped MoP so don't have first hand experience but I bet if we had a couple people we could run them without too many issues. What would be a good day/time for folks?
