    Part of their original plan with WoD was to get rid of flying forever. They were also going to make it so the MoP water strider only worked in MoP and the WoD strider only in WoD.

    They tried to remove it permanently with WoD, there was major player backlash. Part of that though, in my opinion, was that WoD was the worst experience on earth on a ground mount. Whoever designed those zones with their "fake" roads up mountains that ended in dead ends needs to be fired. I...

    McD's around here is expensive but they are still only $1.10 each here. I don't do this often, but this morning I wanted the perfect fast food breakfast.

    Have you ever heard of this happening in a technical, skilled position? And if it's that kind of a work environment why would you be interested in hearing a counter anyway?

    Well, in the future if you are willing to entertain a counter you should talk to your boss before you accept the new offer.

    I have never had a problem cancelling or disputing a charge. Either you were extremely unlucky or you had some shady, third rate bank/CU's credit card. I think it's a Taco Bell breakfast day boys. But I don't like their hash browns or coffee so here is the breakfast route. McDonald's across...

    Are you saying there is no respec option at all or that it will be prohibitively expensive like Azerite was?

    What? You've never had a mayo sandwich before? Baconator is a fast food burger with 6 damn slices of bacon on it, and you expect them to go light on the condiments and cheese? When you order a fat person sandwich expect fat people portions (and love it)

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Every job I've ever taken had the problem of the interviewer misrepresenting stuff. And usually it isn't even their fault. They recommend projects or system upgrades and then ask for resources to handle the new responsibilities. And then you go there and realize the people who interviewed you...

    Well that's always tricky since there is a possibility you'll find all the same problems at the new company.

    You think that sponsorships and professional e-sport organizations are just going to start raining from the sky in the "WF race" scene? Complexity and Limit proves my point, not the opposite. You don't seem to understand that every raid tier will look different. If Blizzard decides to make...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    In the NFL every single team is a professional organization. Only Method and Limit are professional organizations in WoW and it shows. And the creation of these guilds, and what they are doing only widens the gap for non professional, but try hard gamers. It is going to take a substantial amount...

    I'm guessing taking the other offer is a lateral move more than an upgrade in salary then.

    No you are missing the point. When the last boss of a tier takes 5+ days by itself just because guild X got onto the boss 14 hours before World First guild killed it doesn't mean they even stood a chance or that they are somehow "competition".

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    If you're looking for a new job because you are unhappy it's not worth entertaining a counter. If you get solicited via LinkedIn or recruiter and decide to entertain just because "hey why not" and end up receiving a nice offer. Well, may as well let them counter since you likely aren't unhappy...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    There are only two. The other guilds are days behind. Full days. They are on the same boss but that boss will take them close to a week longer to kill. That is not competition, nor is it even close. Even Method is at least a full day behind Limit in this tier. Number of bosses down is not a...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Not really. Even Method is still only at 20% for a best pull. The longer these "races" go and the more resources guilds have to pour in to them the less competition there will be. The more professional the guilds who compete become the less room there is for guilds who cannot field an entire...

    It's much better. And the coaching thing I still cannot believe nobody had thought of before. That was probably the single biggest thing Limit did differently. Having a 21st raider essentially. And it looks like even Method acknowledges that. The problem with these races as an e-sport is they...

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    She has a great voice. And I dig the sound. The problem though, is for all these "new classic rock" bands is they kind of all sound the same, because they kind of don't get it. Throw some classic sounding guitars on top of an organ (or more likely, a synth) and call it a day! That song sounds...

    You've bemoaned that type of thinking in this very thread. Specifically in reference to "antiquated" methodologies like the ones Sanrith has talked about here. For the most part I agree with your methodology and even envy your portfolio, especially when it comes to commercial real estate. But as...

    For the most part you stear clear of predictions, so I'm curious why suddenly you claim we are 10-13 years away from our own generation bringing this already ridiculous run to an end. 10-13 years. That is oddly specific.

    What the heck is the eye roll for? Youve even agreed. Ion and co have been trying to stifle the world first race guilds for a long time now. At the expense of everyone else. So pardon me for not giving a shit and wishing it would go away as an "e sport"

    It's more of a pointed criticism of the fact that Mythic raiding sucks and has been a source of the slow decline of this game for a long time. Yea, the boss is broken. Yea, the world first race is laughable. Yea... who cares. This game sucks and that's a large reason why.

    When you ask for funding from normal avenues you have an obligation to have done due diligence, not be a first timer "learning as you go", have a reasonable time and money estimate, and expect that it is your actual job from now on. Using "Well he probably was learning as he went like I am" and...

    Or both. And knowing that $60k was never going to be enough to make the game he was promising, why did you back it? Anyway, you're naive thinking that this wasn't a grift from step one. He did just enough to make himself feel like he wasn't a thief (and just enough for it to not be a cut and...

    Bud, the guy estimated it would cost him $60k to make the game. He got more than 3x that and has literally nothing to show for it.

    Thanks for the money folks! Here's a sob story about why $195k isn't enough to even afford an apartment and for some reason a broken water heater will get you evicted!
