Good news everybody! I've just reloaded my wow account. The bad news is I've reloaded it few minutes before the maintencance. Arghhh!!!!!

I've got several questions to ask. The game seems like an alien to me now. I've forgotten a lot of things.

1. How to target the enemy using the keyboard?

2. How to take screenshots with your character facing the screen?

3. What is the keyring? What's it use for?

4. What's the best place to grind/farm for gold?

5. What is world pvp?

1. Tab targets the next enemy in front of you. Crtl-Tab and Alt-Tab cycle forward and backward through target lists.

2. Left click on the screen and move the mouse to look around without changing direction. Right clicking and moving the mouse changes direction. crtl-prntscreen to take the screenshot.

3. You put keys on it. It's like a bag just for keys. Scarlet Key, Key to the City, Key to Scholo, Crescent Key, and a couple of others are all that's out there now. Items that get you into dungeons, like the staff of maraudon or the UBRS ring, do NOT fit on the keyring, damn them.

4. What level? Some people swear by Tyr's Hand, if you can manage elite mobs, with potential multiple mob pulls. I find the farthest east farm in WPL to be good, those undead are easy and drop descent coin, the occasional grey item worth 1.5 gold, a few greens, and major mana and health pots, as well as tons of runecloth. I farm soul shards from them prior to raids.

5. World pvp occurs in EPL and Silithus. In EPL there are 4 towers to take. The faction that has them gets a craptastic buff vs undead that does not persist if you zone into Strat or Naxx. OH, you also get cool flight paths between the towers. Take a bat ride for fun wtfbbqsauce. In Silithus you collect dust and turn it in at the faction HQ's near where you do the field commander quest. I've not done that one.

Thanks, I started to regain back some of the feeling now. Though I still couldn't perform a perfect jumpshot, pulling and kiting yet.

I remembered deadwind pass used to be a goldmine for me. So I'll be grinding there.

Anyways, I'll definitely switch to Aman'thul once that server is up. Can't wait to join up an asian base guild. The guild that I'm currently in Medivh seems to be dead.

One more questions, how come my friend list is completely empty? I remembered I put more than 10 people there.

World PvP is a little bit of a failure atm. Few do it and Blizz say theyre working to revamp it.

Your friends list is empty cuz a number of servers lost them when they switched hardware. These servers had ample notice (I think guilds were lost too) and were asked to save the info. for when the switch was made. Since you had deactivated there's no helping it unfortunately. Those affected got in-game mails with copies of their lists but by now yours would have expired. Fresh start eh?

Heh. IMO I'd say BGs are a bit of fail too since they make no attempt to sort by gear quality. I'd like BGs where I don't have to fight super-twinks who have lvl 60 farming alts plzkthnx.

In regards to question 4: Don't.

I make lots of gold simply playing the auction house and checking the trade channel for good deals. Specifically, look for stuff that has no sell price to vendors, that way you can put them back up for the full 24 hours without any deposit, so you don't have to worry about conserving money to afford AH costs of putting goods up. From 100g, in about 1 week I am almost half way to my epic mount and have not done an ounce of farming.

Also, if playing the AH isn't your fancy, try farming winterspring elites for the Eye of Shdaow. I did this a few times on my mage and made lots o gold.

Well BG's are a success in the sense that tons more people play them that didn't. At first they were a failure. Can you believe that? They actually failed the month after they came out. But then Blizz made changes such as battlemasters so people wouldn't have to travel to Ashenvale/Barrens to join, changes to the honor system etc. and they became a success. I agree with you about thwe twinks but they are fixing that soon too. You will gain a small amount of xp when you finish a battleground. This way no twink will be able to stay in the bracket forever. It won't fix it per se but it will make them think twice before blowing 100's of gold on a char that will soon outlevel the enchants. Also they are redoing he matching system next patch so premades won't go up against PUG's anymore - thank god.

I love BG's. Rank 7 last week, hoping to find out I'm rank 8 after I get home. Probably not, because I was shy on kills this week. Made exalted with AV w00t.

Thank the true gods. No more green weapons on dirty NE rogues. No more horrid crusader procs. Where was this posted? I believe you, just when it was asked a few months back Blizz politely said "No" and wanted to keep them the way they were.
