Dr. Albright, have I been a perfect ass?

OTHER:

  • A certain someone has filled Pyn's inbox with several stacks of Silk Cloth. Because of this, Pyn has hit the Expert cap (150) in Tailoring and must go to Stormwind to reach the level of Artisan.
  • Idachi was invited to go to Scarlet Monastery, Maraudon, and Zul'Farrak today, of which she went to Mara and ZF. Both the groups, however, didn't manage to complete the instances and were soon disbanded, but at least Idachi is 33% through level 49 now!
SOCIAL:

  • Pyn was invited into Fusion. I've never heard of these people before, but with 114+ people and about 1/4 of them being level 60, I suppose they're doing SOMETHING right. They also seem to be heavily into endgame raiding, which is always a plus. I suppose Pyn will stick around for a while.

ADDONS:

  • I've had my eye on PowerAuras for a day or so now, and I figured I would give them a shot. As cool as they are, they're just not for me. When I first read of them, I thought it was going to show a little extra effect when buffs are cast on your character. What I didn't know is that they would stay on your character for the entire buff duration! I'm sure it's a great tool for those out there that didn't notice their Blessing of Wisdom ran out minutes ago or their Battle Shout is fading, but when I have long buffs on me like Mark of the Wild, I'd find it pretty distracting.
  • I did, however, love the hell out of WoWTrivia. I can't ever really imagine myself using this in an important situation, but I've been in several parties with very long downtimes.
  • I've also been considering a new UI to make everything look cooler (or more functional). While I've seen several that I'd like to download, I'm very hesitant because what works well on the computer might not work on the laptop, such as very graphical UI's and the whole widescreen ratio might distort stuff.
