I saw one in general chat shortly after the servers came up after patch (I reset my UI so I had joined the 'crap' channels automatically). Right click -> Report as Spam -> Yes.

Congratulations!

I had a quick look over your guild armory pages and noticed that most people had very little raid experience (at least on those characters). Karazhan is much more difficult than Molten Core or Zul'Gurub was at level 60 so if you're in there and killing Atunemen and Moroes then your raid is doing very well. It's a huge step-up in difficulty from 5-man stuff and without a history of raiding before expansion your group must be learning very quickly.

Maiden is a really rough fight on your healers especially without a paladin (I didn't see one in your guild). You should really consider skipping her for a while and trying the Opera house event. 2 of the three events are just tank and spank fights, and big bad wolf is pretty funny—as in "laughing on vent" funny. You may take one or two attempts to work out the strategies but luck and timing play much smaller roles in those fights. Opera opens up the back door which makes repeated attempts on Curator easier than Maiden now that his trash re-spawn is nerfed. If you can get him (which is a much more controllable fight than Maiden) then you'll also get access to Chess and a couple more free epics every week.

Also, the trash past opera will pay for a full night of wiping—it drops 1-3g per person per pull.

You think right, we are very low experienced in Karazhan at the moment! But slowly progressing, we might be taking a shot at it tonight so if we do without a Paladin (usually PUG one) I will ask to skip it and go onto the Opera Event, which yes does sound fun t:)me! :)

There is a current bug that you can have your Netherdrake mount while flying around. I have had it happen numerous times, pretty cool and fun to have people think you already have one.

Rep grinding for one isn't to bad, it's mainly the same set of daily quests over and over.

Im so proud. I did Childrens week to earn alot of gold and discovered how much the auctioning business makes. Of course I'm still a n00b and sold most of the Dagger set for around 5 silver a piece. :p I did sell something else for like 4-5 gold though. :)

i chose the turtle. :D

i made an undead warlock on the Earthen Ring server. my goal is to be a part of the 'iacta alea est' guild. :o

"The die has been cast". Umm might have to ask those guys why that name by the great Julius Ceaser quoting Suetonius. Man wikipedia is the ****.

Yeah, it bugged for me when out of transform areas in Shadowmoon Valley.. Didn't last long though. I'm 5k into revered at the moment. The rep aint too hard, and the quests don't take too long (On a low pop realm) Just wish i could be a bit more lucky when it comes to getting the damn eggs. A friend of mine on the same realm hit exalted yesterday, so lucky :(

Anyone else think the Sha'tari rep quests around Skettis are a bit of a pain? The droprates on dust etc really suck.

Can someone help...

i've just noticed i've been playing US servers for my trial account and i've gone a brought a EU serial, i take it that its not possible to upgrade using that key as i've just gotten an error.

so basically i've got to start over again?

got to lvl 26 in a week so should be able to do it again hopefully... :(

With the trial being limited to level 20, I call bull****. :p

Nevertheless, it shouldn't be that hard to get to level 20 again... after I started playing again it took me something like a day to get to level 16 (that was pretty much the whole day though) on a totally new class and start location for me, taking the time to read all the quest texts thoroughly and trying to enjoy myself. So... imo, it's not that big a deal. :)

To answer your question though: You can convert, but I wouldn't be surprised if they charge you for it. And, at least upon release, they stated it might take a couple of weeks. Plenty of time to even reach level 70. ;)

oops i didnt mean lvl26 i ment 16, slip of the ol' finger it seems. i've started on a new server now anyway UK, i've managed to get to lvl 10 in 4 hours, probably not thaty great compared to most people but its not bad for me.

just sucks thinking about all thats stuff i had in the bank and money on there.

thanks for any help anyways guys.

Anyone else think the Sha'tari rep quests around Skettis are a bit of a pain? The droprates on dust etc really suck.

yeah i only think they suck as i now have people running all over my fishing hole, it used to be nice and quiet up there :(

the dust is awful for drop rate I agree...on my server i've not seen any on the AH but it can be sold...might be a niche in the market there.

best part i found about those Sha'tari Skyguard rep was getting the Arokkar costume as a druid, you stayed in the costume in flight form so could dive bomb people as a proper bird man :D

is it just me or is worldofwarcraft.com down, and so is the game auth system? and when you can log in, either no one is there playing, or settings are screwy like not being able to mount, and the friends/guild list cleared so no one is in it?

this as of midday AEST 30th may.

Need some advice...

I'm going to be rolling a Troll Huntard on a RPPVP realm with some guildmates, and I'm completely at a loss as to what to name him. So any suggestions would be appreciated, but bear in mind, this will be for a rppvp server, so nothing like 'loldpspewpew', 'Supahunta' or any kiddie crap like that.

'ZOMGHAIDOWNTHARMON' << Has the 'mon' at the end, which conforms to the troll RP element. Enjoy!

:p

Just kidding, of course. Check out http://www.behindthename.com/ - might have some names you find interesting... might now. I always take time to find a nice name for my characters, and I appreciate other people doing the same. Then again, you WILL get a warning if you have a name that clearly breaks the RP convention... trust me (clarification: my main server was down one day, I was bored. Created an orc named XSUPERKILLERX or some such on an RP realm and ran from Org to IF and planted my corpse right outside the AH. Got a nice little warning. :<). ;)

...Thank you so much for that link. That will help immensely!!

On my old realm, someone did the same with a female nelf huntard. Someone created a toon named 'Welcome' and planted her corpse right outside the main gate to Org. :laugh:

    • This is how much iPhone 18 Pro could cost after Apple's price hike confirmed by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Apple CEO Tim Cook confirmed in a recent interview that the company may have to raise prices on some of its products due to the ongoing memory shortage. While he did not elaborate on the scale of the price hikes, new estimates suggest that Pro iPhone models could become significantly more expensive this fall. The Wall Street Journal and research firm TechInsights have come up with an educated estimate of how much the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could cost after its launch in September. The estimate is based on current increases in memory and storage chip prices. For starters, the iPhone 18 Pro base model is expected to feature 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. According to TechInsights estimates, 12GB of DRAM for the iPhone 17 Pro cost Apple $39 last year. However, for the iPhone 18 Pro, the cost of the same amount of DRAM could soar to $145. Likewise, 256GB of flash storage that previously cost $13 could now cost around $51. Producing a base iPhone 17 Pro reportedly cost Apple around $582, but TechInsights estimates that the production cost of the iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $726. If Apple wants to maintain the roughly 47% profit margin it enjoys on the iPhone 17 Pro, the base price of the iPhone 18 Pro would need to reach $1,371. After standard pricing adjustments, customers could end up paying around $1,299 for the base model. However, that may not be the end of the story. As we previously reported, the iPhone 18 Pro is said to feature a variable-aperture lens, which could cost Apple at least 50% more than the current camera system. The estimated $1,299 price tag does not include the additional cost of this upgraded camera hardware. Once that expense is factored in, the base model could cost at least $1,399. A $1,399 price tag for the base iPhone 18 Pro would represent a significant increase over the current $1,099 starting price of the iPhone 17 Pro. If Apple wants to keep its upcoming iPhones competitive, it may need to accept lower profit margins.

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
