Why bears don't have visible armor.

You may have asked why bears never seem to have visible armor and if that will ever change, well...Blizzard had made several attempts but couldn't seem to get it just right.
Cloth made our waist look too narrow.
Leather didn't go so well as raids couldn't get accustomed to the smell of a big, hairy, sweaty, leather coach.
They tried mail but it looked like a hairy guy wearing a mesh shirt...
Plate was considered but they didn't want prot pallies to actually have to work to be the best plate tank.
Tin foil was quickly removed as an armor class.
The decision was made to implement a new armor class, Fur.
This is what cat form looked like before Fur.
...Yes, I'm very bored.

So am i. If i wasnt at work now, id have a good laugh over those :D The "tin foil" critted me the hardest, i guess :D But i am at work and i gotta hold it back >_>
Btw, I got a new necklace and chest piece yesterday, yay.
edit: why does armory have to tell everyone what random !@#$ i won with greed rolls in heroics?
MoD edit: Please do not bypass the filter

cool beans, were they all shiny and stuff with that new lewt smell?
Unfortunately due to my own PC crapping out and lack of funds to fix it I'm bound to sharing a mac with 3 others and I can't get vent on it which means I'm not raiding much lately.
T_T
Oh and Druid > all for aoe, "them warriors be crazy."
edit: after checking ur armory i decided I hate you >_< the heroic versions of the neck and chest are what I imagine will be BiS unless the Lich King is holding out on us.
But yeah, congrats, from what it looks like hit rating will become a little on the scarce side making the chest a great choice.

Not only shiny, they shot me right to the top of the "alliance druids" rank list on my realm.
Aw, thats a really unfortunate situation :<
And hell yeah about the AoE. Could use a little bit more snap though, Frost DKs tend to have 2-3 seconds of fame right after a trash pull. But i get all the trash attention after that. Then i hit Enrage. :D

It's not all bad, I still do my daily/weekly H, and JC daily then pass the time farming my classic resets for cash and mounts (ZG/MC/AQ20/AQ40/MrT/Kara)
And come February I'm gonna spend the majority of the Lunar Festival running
The Nightmare Manifests
to summon
Eranikus
and his army of
Nightmare Phantasms
for everyone in Moonglade to enjoy. Been holding onto this quest for 6 months now just starting it to play around then abandoning it to do again later.

Oh hi Aadra. /wave
I wish i could listen to that now D:
That Eranikus idea is really neat. I have never seen him though, where does he spawn? I hope he doesnt appear somewhere in the far reaches of Moonglade. Oh wait his spawn points are displayed on his wowhead page. Mwahahahahah.
edit: Oh my god i hate this level of boredom. I rapidly switch between the General, PvE, Druid, DK, Paladin and Warrior forums, to see if there are any new posts, and pretty much do nothing else. Our guilds forums are ghost town. Mmo-champion has boring news. The new Pokémon game is not released in english yet. ARGH.

lol smooth, yeah starts by talking with Remulos out by his shrine then following him to the little dock/patio in Nighthaven where Eranikus is summoned over the water.
Then you follow Remulos inside the large building overlooking the lake as Eranikus moves to hover over the center of Nighthaven and begins summoning a small army of Nightmare Phantasms that periodically cast shadow bolt volley and aoe fear.
Once all the Nightmares are dispatched Eranikus descends and you have to take him down to 20% to weaken him enough to free him from the Emerald Nightmare.
All the while protecting Remulos.
It's really fun and from all the times i've started and abandoned it it seems if you log out mid event the Nighthaven guards will just keep running around like mad until it's started again and either failed or completed.
Figured with a large number of both Alliance and Horde in one zone that I happen to be able to summon a 2.6mil raid boss that spams shadow bolt volleys and a poisonous breath that increases the cooldown on every ability that isn't "on next swing" and an army of shadow bolt volley, fear spamming elites was too much to pass up so I've been saving it since July just for the Lunar Festival.
I strongly recommend running the AQ questline before Cata to anyone who's even slightly into lore. (Azuregos is the best, minnows, bombs, wrath of an elemental lord, taking all your clothes off, and such)
edit: it is way too boring, I hop between the druid, warrior, DK, and general forums the most but I've gotten my replies to the "Help my derps warr plz" threads down to copying and pasting posts of mine from the previous day. Pokemon was awesome up to G/S shuckle ftw. I almost wish a certain someone mentioned in my wowhead public description would come back...again...just to watch everyone burn him to the ground...again.

Oh god, i must do that too. Such rampage in Moonglade. I hope it is not gonna be one of the things i said i will do and never actually do though. :(
I loved Pulles description of off-tanks. Well, it was a very twisted love though. As in, his logic made me feel sick, and stuff. But at least there was something to draw my attention. And "i herd there arent many players on Russian servers so lets say 1 million plays there" might be the best punchline on entire wowhead. Even though "Nature Resistance Totem rank 5 would make a better warchief than Garrosh." comes close.
The new pokémon game i am looking forward to is the remake of the old Gold and Silver. I am not much of a fan of any other type of Pokémon games, the "you are a trainer, you need to get all badges, you need to defeat "Team <evil>", you need to defeat the elite 4, you need to collect them all" concept works fine.

man i feel your pain hashmel
not about the computer part but lack of raids :s
guild hit a brickwall on saurfang and then it stopped raiding all together
just me and 9 RL mates left for 10 mans and 2 of them are way underperforming(3K dps 4.5K on a patch type fight)
so basically plagueworks and follow ups are out of the window till we get either reinforcements for 25 or get those 2 their dps fixed.(Tried looking for more people for 25 mans and failed so far :P )
these days i usually only kick around in WoW by doing same as you farming mounts,weekly raid,some old boring nax 10 and fishing(yeah fishing thats all i do these days) on the bright side if that turtle mount keeps waiting any longer i will have made over 2K gold on dragonfin angelfish(75G a pop on my server)
tried leveling few of my alts but i hit a brickwall on them cba to continue saddly enough
ok now im curious who is MrT you mentioned? (besides the dude From the comercials ;P )

Exactly!
the new stuff is just convoluted and draws you away from what originally made it so great, I don't give a damn about planting berry seeds or putting my Rhydon in a dress, I just want to make the best team I can of types I love with the occasional 1 pokemon army which for me was Shuckle, he could actually cap his defensive skills and his nonexistant attack power wasn't an issue.
He had rest to fully heal if he was somehow wittled down, snore to deal damage in his sleep, rollout to deal exponentially increasing damage that nothing was immune to, and defense curl though useless as his defense was maxxed but it doubled the damage of rollout if used the very next turn. I'd swap defense curl for a more defensive ability if I was dueling someone that liked to use static damage or 1H-KOs
I really would encourage you to start on the AQ questline, praying Blizz doesn't change things enough in Cata that it gets removed cuz i'd love to do it again on another toon, it's a bit of a moneysink but the lore and fun events are worth it not to mention getting
epic munchies
and
the single most valuable non-mount vendorable item in the game
. (that vendor price isn't a typo and is enough to make it worthy of being a bank trophy)

Oh my god, guys... Go have some intense workout for two hours (all main muscular groupes - legs, arms, torso), then tahe a shower and relax in comfortable clothes. Put on some earplugs with nice
music
and read a
good book
, all this while slowly seeping from a glass of some fine
digestif
beverage
(this is my personal favorite among the strong alcoholic beverages). It's simply wonderful ^_^

Hehe, you're one classy lady Aadra.
Being a Marine brat I grew up with King Cobra and grew to love it because it was the cheapest 40oz around but I haven't drank since a had my car accident but then again that was nature's way of telling me I was being a dumbass and I'm better for it, well not physically but still overall better for it.
Adolescent breakups and alcohol don't mix.
Did you change Nidoggar's name btw?

Aww, thanx for the kind words :">
Did you change Nidoggar's name btw?
Yes, I changed it twice (every time occasioned by the server transfer) already :P The first variation was when I changed faction, Mørkpanther (Dark Panther - norwegian translation). But that sounded a bit too impersonal. So I changed it to what it is now when I transferred from EU Al'Akir to EU Auchindoun.
Ashtavakra
was inspired by a powerful song from an indian band called
Rudra
, song called "
Majestic Ashtavakra
".

Back when i was writing that, i was in my second job. That means sitting by a crappy pc all day, pretending i do graphics. I then load all the templates to a flash disk and do the work at home, where i have a pc that is miles better than the one at work. Can not really do any of your suggestions in there :V
Also, my idea of an ideal evening would not include clothes, books, or baverages... but it would include my girlfriend. :3
edit: also the "Left Hand of God" is a pretty good book

And SECOND, I do agree that would be a much more enjoyable evening. Although it WOULD include beverages. And my girlfriend, of course *wink* ;;)
I then load all the templates to a flash disk and do the work at homeUgh, man, that really sucks. Sittin' on yer arse doing nothing in front of a crappy PC at work and then being forced to do the actual work at home... Yuck :(

O hai 2 stacks of Rhino Meat. (AoEing them down with the recent nerf to AoE damage was really SLOW)
edit: Yeh, it does suck. They promise me a new pc every time i ask about it. The teachers in universities have EXACTLY the same attitude as the students. "Yes yes we will give it to you.... ummm... tomorrow." Starts to sound repetitive. (i am the main graphic designer for the university of IT)
