Blog Rock Wednesday 09/12/07 PRODIGAL MOD RETURNS!

[Apples]

There was a thread a few weeks ago in the general forum regarding World of Warcraft. Someone reacted negatively to some of the criticisms in that thread, and posted snippets of that over on Blizzard's official forums to his WoW buddies.

That got enough WoW players riled up to create accounts here and spam the general forum with a bunch of junk posts. This was over the previous weekend I believe, and someone was able to catch on and ban/lock the offending posts/posters.

I'm sure it was just a vocal minority, I played the game for a number of months and generally ran into a decent crowd.

Yeah, well that's cool, that you left us all alone while you were out partying with Dave Grohl and Kanye West.

I mean, we didn't miss you. We had our own friend. His name is QA_India, and he checked in with us every few hours, asking us how we were doing. Because that's the kind of guy he is; he cares about us.

But you wouldn't know anything about that, would you, Hollywood?

Dude, get a Golden Retriever. They love everyone unconditionally and are about as friendly as any creature on the face of this planet has ever been. They're great with other pets, kids and you take them jogging or just lounge around the house. Basically, they are happy just being around people. Some dogs are decorations, some dogs are (sadly) used as weapons, but Goldens can't be described as anything other than companions.

What was this WOW raid thing?

Smidget mentioned something and I was confused. Someone type up the story in a blog or something and then let me know.

A member here started a World of Warcraft thread (about how badly addicted people are).

Another member took offense to it, defending wow, and made the error of posting this thread on the WoW forums.

Members there then decided to come here and raise hell, posting lewd pics, putting some type of pop-up link in a bunch of thread, and just being general hell-raisers.

The general section was pretty much off-limits that day.

QA_India is banned and shant be a problem moving forward. He has been...liquidated.

Nice to have you back Sean, for the time being at least. So did any famous folk do exceptionally well at Rock Band?

The keyboardist for Gym Class Heroes (I didn't get his name) sat in and started drums on hard and ruled. Alex from Cobra Starship all out killed on guitar. He was challenging people to duels on expert. Keep in mind this was often when they had just come off stage and made a beeline for the game. Only to be pulled away to play onstage again. Marc from GCH was also pretty intense on all the instruments as well and played at both the Fallout Boy suite as well as the Kanye party the night before.

Umm, what else? What sort of a dog should I get? I want to get one real bad.

..

sweet, another mod. things were getting pretty rowdy! Grats Apples!

as for dogs, I love huskys, but have a certain sweet spot for German Shepards and Black Labrador retrievers. (probably because I've basically had all 3.. never a full husky though.. my dad owned a half german shepard half husky.. he was bad ass.)

it mainly depends on the size of dog first and foremost I would think
