Damn you, Nyhm! DAMN YOU! Nyhm, of Mad Cow Studios, is an evil genious. Hard Like Heroic, Ni Hao (A Gold Farmers Story)… he’s got other songs, but those two have been on permanent-repeat on my MP3 player this morning… Damn you, Nyhm! So… Good!
Warning! This post has little to nothing to do with WoW, so if you don’t give a rats’s ass about my life outside WoW… keep moving, buster! If you are a bit of a voyeur, or just really like me for some odd reason… or actually know me… well, read on past the break.
Today, I’m going to be talking about an acquaintance of mine. Not a friend. Not even a good friend. I have little to no association with him, Blizz, so there’s no reason to ban ME for HIS indiscretions.
Anyway; enough CYA-
This friend of mine has started *gasp* playing on a private server.
I know, I know- if he gets caught.. nay, WHEN he gets caught, he’s forfeiting his WoW account. But he doesn’t have the ability to pay for WoW right now, and he’s feeling the need to give the private servers a shot…
Well; here’s what I’ve learned from him so far-
(more…)
Wow; apparently there’s quite the shakeout-time involved in having adsense ads on a WoW-related site… I go through and block one set of WoW goldfarmers, only to have a whole new set show up… block them, and hey- another set!
/sigh
Eh; I’m sure I’ll eventually manage to block ‘em… right before they all change domains, and I have to do it all over again.
Well; this is annoying- the post-by-email feature isn’t working for me… I’ve sequicentuple-checked the settings, and it seems that Wp just doesn’t feel like checking the mail?
I’m able to check the box manually- the messages are arriving, and awaiting wordpress… but it doesn’t seem to want to actually post them.
Grr.

Update: AHA! I needed to set up a cron-job on my server to open the wp-mail.php page to actually have wordpress check the mail and post…
Of course, now I have to find out why I’m getting odd-looking posts…
Thanks, http://codex.wordpress.org/Blog_by_Email !

Update: This is my first gmail-posted message, and… hrm. It came up blank, even though I KNOW there was text in the message… fun!

Hmm… when I promise to post something later? Yeah, that's entirely de=
pendant on my remembering to do so; and yesterday was a real bear.

Well; I guess I’m not so much GONE, as updating the entire site after my move from Wordpress.com to my own server; so Yay!
Actually, it’s quite a bit of fun- I’m quite pleased that I got this SWEET hosting package as a freebie at my job… 15TB/month. Free. O.O
Aaaanyhoo; hey, google guy- this will be a busier, WoW-oriented site in a bit. (I’m signing up for Adsense- even have the Wordpress plugin installed and ready to go… just needs an Adsense account ID… ^_^)
Well, then… I’ll post more later, when I’m home from work- there’s actually quite a bit of news about 2.4 to link to/repost/talk about…
Ah; I’ve been out of WoW for a while, now… so yeah, updates are going to be… well, nil, ’till I’m back in WoW… probably mid-Feb at the earliest.
Aaaaaah; it’s about time. Sadly, I dinged while farming clefthoof leather yesterday afternoon… Oh, well- dinging to seventy is dinging to seventy.
Thanks to the kindness of guildies and friends, I had enough mats to immediately make and equip my Strength of the Clefthoof set. I’m still short a couple of gems, but that’s not a huge issue. Now, to start heroics/Kara…
