Not to mention Barrens chat, Chuck Norris, Toyota Tundras, Shatner, Nihilum, server queues, omgwtfbbqs, nerfs, un-nerfs, buffs, debuffs, level cap raises, talent shuffling, guild drama, cyberdrama, Brewfest drama, fishing tournaments, population imbalances, keyloggers, outdated AddOns, forum petitions, uberguild notoriety, Leeroy Jenkins, Jeopardy, Community Manager burnout, Blizzcon mania, ninja looters, drama queens, bank robbers, afkers, market manipulators, pre-mades, bugs, glitches, dot shockers, pewpewpewers, qqers, class hate, class buffs, off-spec ascendance and core spec bitterness.

I wondered when you would get to this. I podcasted it this morning, and after the whole day of seeing nothing here, I decided to send you a tip. Glad to see others note this momentous date. Best wishes to Blizzard on this day, they have made a game still worth playing 3 years out.

This site doesn't report, it reblogs. Pay-by-post is the worst way to pay a team of amateur journalists who just bite content from real bloggers (the guys who aren't being paid). Nobody wonders where you get your content.
But hey, happy birthday WoW!

In all honesty, this is the site I get a lot of my content for my shows from, as they are willing to wade through the forums when most would rather just wait for it. They also, generally, give credit where it is due.

Hey Val, if you think we don't write any original content of our own, I invite you check out any article listed in the FEATURES sidebar. It's some of our most popular stuff.
As for "reblogging" we are also a news aggregation site and make no claim of ownership to the material we take the time to find and report to you.
And yes, we are paid by the post. We believe that paying our writers allows us to set certain editorial standards and maintain them.
But hey, Happy Birthday WoW! (oops, did I just reblog myself there?)

Happy birthday WoW!
And Val, I had a bunch of things to say to you but Dan pretty much got it.
I guess I'll just sum it up in these words: Die in a giant, flaming turkey.

Lord, everyone knows the blogosphere is a circle-jerk. I'm just happy when a site like this or Massively links to me... which could happen more, you know... :P
Man, 3 years. So many frustrations, but so many great times too. The good far outweigh the bad.
