trainable ice block
I'm thankful for:
My beta key that is obviously lost in the mail
My guild "Go leafs Go"
GC being a women and having no idea what she looks like *oh the posibilities, Sarah Palin/Madonna*
BG's
Getting buffed and having more then 20k health
DK's
Mana tap
10 man *cough* person raid content
2am trade discussions on God
Reporting players AFK in bg's
Badges of Justice
Daily Quests
Brewfest Mounts... oh wait, scratch that...
Being the only one alive after a boss kill
I'm thankful for a good guild that allowed me the opportunity to get two legendary weapons.
im thankful for forum alts so i can be mean on forums and no one will laugh at my ridiculously low arena rating
the time I get to play (which also helps me not to pull my hair out, a stress reliever if you will)
the wonderful people I've met through the game
the chance it gives me to spend time with my RL friends who don't live near me
I enjoy that some of the thanks in this thread are rephrased criticisms. :) ( blue post)
-A guild with people from various parts of the world that can be considered cool, awesome, and similar terms.
-People accepting me as a tank
-Not having to heal
-Ret is going to be good
-Global Warming, it is cold here!
-My Shaman and Druid look really nice (figures, I'm a guy), even though they're not exactly the same "standard" hair type and stuff.
-BE Ponytail style on my Draenei Shaman =D
-Once again, and I can't stress this enough, the people that make playing this game all worthwhile.
-The fact this game gives a sense of accomplishment, even if you are supposed to have done it before but never have.
-Orb of the Sin'dorei giving me the best BE look possible IMO.
-That /facepalm is finally installed.
-I have kinda wanted to be a Shaman in real life... Oh wait, that's not a good thing is it? LOL
*Elemental Shaman
*The quest at Blood Watch where Velen and the quest givers show up to thank you
*Mounts not taking up all my bag space soon
*Vanity pets
*The /facepalm emote (I have enjoyed using this on the beta)
*Lightwell (It's pretty)
*The right to put people on ignore
*The report spam feature
*The ability to turn off trade channel
*Zangarmarsh
*All the people on my friends list wellfare epics
I am thankful that those smarmy Blood Elves are members of the Horde. That means I can play with my pals and look great doing it.
I am thankful for the Paladin class. Out of all WoW's classes they speak to me and my playing style the best.
I am thankful for Tabards. They are awesome, and are the best way to cover up hideous Breastplates. I hope we see many, many more Tabards in WoW :).
I am thankful for Titles. They are amazing. The hardest part is picking which one!
I am thankful for the Achievement System. It's great to see Blizzard reward people for more then killing monsters and kiiling each other.
I am thankful for the good people in the WotLK Beta. They're the ones that provide the good feedback that is needed to make this a good game.
I am thankful for our Blue Team. Ghostcrawler, Zarhym, Tigole, Eyonix, Nethaera, Crygil, and (imo) the original Blue Funny Guy, Bornakk. They've put up with a lot of crap this expansion, have all drank their share of GC's gin (except Tigole; all we know about him is that he loves coffee), and have probably wished numerous times that they hadn't gone publicly informative with the WotLK Beta. Even though we may QQ at you and flame each other, we do it for the game. Long live Azeroth!
I just got a bunch of death threats from the fans of Wryxian, Vaneras, and Kisirani. You guys are awesome too. Don't kill me . . . . Or create gapping holes of death beneath me >.<.
Monstrous Kaliri, without which I wouldn't understand the meaning of in-game frustration outside PvP. the wow forums
the bejewled mod
the ability to have casuals and hardcores coexist relatively well
I'm thankful that I am able to enjoy the wonderful world of warcraft

the 2.3 and 3.0 lvling buffs

Q u o t e:


You forgot to say "eh". It's used almost like punctuation here.
Hai2u from the nickel capital of the world. (See if you can figure it out!)

Also, I'm thankful for instant inter-account mail. :)

I thought about it, but I didn't want to come off as patronizing or insulting. Since we're in like, California, I'll just, like, let you know, like how often we like to, like, say "like."

Q u o t e:


what about "dude"? Does that still go?

Yes. When "Dude Where's My Car" came out everyone here thought it to be a compelling drama.
