Finally got my epic achievement in world of warcraft yesterday :D The last one I needed and had been needing for weeks was ranged (which since I play a druid means idol). I lost the roll on it, but luckily my guildy who was the only only feral on the run passed it to me because its a dps idol and he's more tanking then dps. Personally I think he passed more so because he remembered the time weeks ago when I passed on the tier 7 legs that dropped since they were a bigger upgrade for him then me.
I also got almost all of the childrens week achievements done now. The school of hard knocks ones weren't nearly as hard as I thought they would be. The ab one I got first, that one was easy, I just ninja capped the stables while my team was fighting, lol. The wsg one...that was funny, a horde was picking up and dropping our flag just to help us get the achievement. <3 that hordy. The eos and av ones provided a bit more difficult but still not too bad. The eos one the first day I tried it there were so many just going in mid to get the flag and I couldn't click it fast enough to grab before the others. And also were jerks who refused to cap the flag just so some of us couldn't get the achievement. So tried it again last night and got it in my first game, was a few others going for the flag early on and lots of horde there at first but towards the end of the game horde had 2 towers and us 2 but we were far behind from only having 1 most of the game. Anyway towards the end alliance tried to get more towers then the 2 we had but we were already so far behind I just went mid since no one else was there and grabbed flag and capped it. The AV one was the one that somewhat sucked, it took me like 5 or 6 games to get it and we only won 1 of those games. So many people were going for towers for the achievement. In the 2nd game I even was capping the tower but horde won before I could finish so took me the 4 or 5 more games to get the achivment :(
I did the "Hail to the King" achievement too. And got a mostly guild run for it. This one guildy who went with me was horrid bad though. I know that sounds mean but listen. He was doing less then 900 dps, and he's a hunter in almost full epics. I mentioned it to him after the run not to be mean or anything but I honestly figured he didn't know how little he was doing, or that maybe he was doing so badly because he forgot something or was experimenting with a new spec or something. I didn't bring it up like "you suck" I said something like "did you know you only did like 900 dps in there?" he said it was because he was playing with a not fully leveled up pet(in a heroic lol) and because he had to go afk a few times and we wouldn't wait(he only went afk like 3 times and not for long enough for it to make his dps be so below the rest of ours). Then he said "don't worry you're not the only guildy to tell me I suck" I never told him he sucks though, just that his dps was below what it should be to run heroics. Anyway that was the end of that or so I thought. But the next day he whisperers me all angry and emo like saying "I was wondering why you felt the need to point out my low dps last night" (I only pointed it out to him). I said what I said last night that it was below what it should be to run heroics and I thought he might want to know so he can figure out how to up it. He got mad and defensive instead and said "what does it matter if we finished the run" and then even tried to tell me that he was doing me a favor by going on the run! The nerve. For 1 he needed the achievement too, for 2 he was dps and dps is easy to find. I asked him why he was getting so upset/defensive and he said "because its not the 1rst, 2nd or even 3rd time I have gone on a run as a favor with a guildy and they have mentioned my dps as being low". I said "Well then no offense but maybe you need to improve then, try a different spec or pet or something, your gear is good enough where you should easily be doing double or even triple the dps you're doing now". He then went on to say "well I could tell you how to improve yours too but I won't do that." To that I was like"......" I couldn't believe him, on the run we went on I went as balance (I normally run as feral) and I know I need to improve on my balance rotations, but still even as balance and not knowing my rotations that well I almost tripled his dps. I pointed out that in our nax 25 runs I'm always top or near top dps and hes bottom. He then said "I wasn't last, and they still let me go to nax with my dps being what it is" Now maybe he wasn't bottom (my meter only records the top 10, but I do know he was under the main tank, because the main tank was number 10 on my meter, if he wasn't last he still wasn't doing well. And the others below the main tank at least were all undergeared(we have wayyyyyy too many undergeared people in this guild...but thats a rant for another time). As if them taking him on the run means anything though, this guild takes anyone whos online and signed up for it. Thankfully they don't just take anyone for the uldaur runs, not that we get far in there anyway. Anyway I was only trying to help him because like I said I figured he honestly didn't know how low his dps was. But he had to have a fit about it, he even said "don't worry I won't volunteer to go on any runs with you again" After enough crap from him I said to him "well don't you want to contribute and not get carried by everyone". He kept saying how I shouldn't have told him his dps was low blah blah blah so I finally said "ok I'm sorry, I thought you didn't know and would want to improve, I know if I was doing such low dps I'd want to know, but I guess I was wrong, I won't mention it again".
Anyway other then that not much going on with me. Made another new online friend. I've been making quite a few online friends lately, mostly through a forum I go to. Hopefully some of them will actually last. Guess if I keep people at a distance it might work because then I won't be as upset and cut them off when I find out their lying to me or something. There was a post on the forum I go to recently that got me thinking though...it asked if we'd rather the forum was public or private. And I know I'd rather it was a private forum then public like most of it is now. Reason being as you can probably tell, I'm a very open person, I've mistakenly given the forum link to people years ago who I though I would be friends with forever or at least wouldn't end up being jerks. Anyway now I'm somewhat worried that 1 or more of those people may be going to the forum and reading my posts. I don't think I'm being paranoid either because it happened in the past to me not once or twice but a few times. 1 of the last people I gave the link to was Josh and he logged in on the site a few days after we stopped being friends. Anyway even if he or Rich or anyone else I used to know reads my posts I guess it doesn't really matter too much, only thing is I don't want any of them knowing I'm still hurt by them.
