I remember Barolas, but not Laeli. Or you (looks at you suspiciously ), but I wasnāt all that regular here, and I didnāt start hanging around here until a bit later.
As far as suggestions, they go into the most likely forum, with General being the catch-all for stuff that doesnāt really fit anywhere else.
It looks like weāre going to get at least a little winter this month - thereās a chance of snow every day for the next week, with Tuesday and Wednesday being very āwintry.ā Since I donāt have to drive all that much, I say āBring it on!ā
I posted on a human paladin named āVindicatedā from the anvilmar server. I moved off the server some time ago, but I tried to see if I could use that character to post! Alas. My adventures in necromancy would have to do.
Barolas is still around, but does not post under that name. He works at Blizzard now on the WoW team after first working on the Forum Support Agent team.
I donāt remember Laeli, but I was not consistant about being around back then.
They found that instead of being helpful, it was a mixed basket of complaints, suggestions, and bugs. It also resulted in people sort of posting then leaving and not discussing the ideas. So, they now ask us to use the in-game suggestion tool, or to use the forum most closely related. So quest suggestions would go on a forum related to quests. That gets the suggestions into the right subject buckets and in a place they are more likely to be interacted with by other players. Failing all that someone would venture into General Discussion.
Hello, Underdose/Vindicated! Glad to see you around still.
I remember the name āLaeliā, but there have been so many that have come and gone and returned then left, nothing specific is coming to my mind. Some of the old regulars donāt play much anymore, often due to life, family, etcā¦ but I know some lurk from time to time.
If you see any of them, please let them know they are very fondly remembered. I wish they could see me today. Iāve made a lot of changes in my life and I think they would all appreciate the person Iāve spent the last 15 years trying to become. Once again, sending yāall a lot of love today.
Hi friends! Itās been a minute since Iāve dropped in ^^
Barolas is doing great Iāve been deep in development supporting my teams so I donāt get to swing by often, but Vrakthris keeps me apprised of goings-on during our hangouts Itās really good to see everyone! Since it sounds like folks are celebrating anniversaries (Congrats Vrak and Harlsoco!!) Iām happy to share that Iām 10 years in at Blizzard and recently celebrated 2 years on the WoW team!
So glad to see everyoneās doing well - I hope youāre all off to a wonderful 2024.
(Personal note, hope youāre all enjoying Dragonflight! Itās my first shipped expansion with the WoW team, and itās been so wonderful seeing how much folks fun are having!!!)
Lord, the old Suggestion Forum. May you live on forever in our hearts.
Thatās fantastic! I can relate because I know how much my life has changed since launch. Completely different life, but WoW is the one constant. Congrats on the positive changes!
Iām not sure how much you do with the story, but Iāve really enjoyed the theme of dragons returning to their land and repairing their past, especially the Black Dragonflight and Ebonhorn/Emberthal. Itās a powerful story you guys have told this expansion.
Absolutely! This one is right up there with MoP for me. Itās really immersive. The stories and characters have been fun, the zones are gorgeous with all their little details and of course the music and ambient sounds are amazing. Thank you and your team for all the love youāve put into DF, it truly shows.
We had a green Christmas here which is very unusual and I live in British Columbia. Most of Canada actually had no snow on the ground at Christmas. Also, No snow in the forecast at all here. So many people are worried about the forest fire season when it comes later this year!
Heard on the news that in Alberta, There is still 62 forest fires burning out of control right now. In, BC we still got lots burning up north close to the Yukon and NWT borders.
Howdy! Weāve only had 15 inches so far this year. And that was in 6-7 snow events. Most of it light fluffy lake effect snow. Easy to shovel. Weāve been threatened with snow for weeks, and somehow, we seem to miss it. Itās either to the east of Marquette or west of Ishpeming. Weāve had many record highs broken this season. We bought that new snowblower and have yet to use it (itās not worth starting it up for light snow) Though the side-by-side is nice.
Itās very peaceful up here. Iāve been feeding the birds who havenāt migrated. A couple of different species. We call it cat TV. Weāve had cloudy skies for quite a while.
Fortunately, this isnāt a period for the northern lights. The sunspots facing us already let out a big burst a few days ago and missed us (trust me, this was a very good thing).
Otherwise, just lurking and rooting for the kitties . Heh, Iāve had people stop by and complement us on our Lions flags (2) hanging on the porch.
We decided to go the hard route. We got a new steel roof over the summer. We switched from gas to propane for heat. We got a generator tied directly to the propane line. And you know about the ride and blower. We spent the money. And we will assume all credit for not having any snow thank you very much After all, last year we only bought a small battery powered snowblower and got 280 inches last year. We thought we learned our lesson
Itās pretty split up here. Iād say more Lions fans than cheeseheads. Iāve been wearing a blue santa-type cap with the emblem and logo on the front. Many people up here like it (they also call me santaā¦ Iāll let you figure that one out, hint itās not the belly)
