This may seem like a bad place to ask but someone else talked about it here.

Does anyone know a legit gold selling site? I have no jobs level'd and have no way of making gold. It's only $20 for 1k gold which is practically nothing, I'll just buy it and have it for a long long time.

Your account will be banned if you purchase gold.

Pfft. I know people in my guild who have bought 5000g for their epic flying mounts on their alts!... TWICE! Blizzard don't give a toss.

Tis true. You seem to get away with it more than you get caught, but still. Pretty lazy or you just suck if you can't farm up gold in the current state.

Here's what I do, create a level 1 character, load him up with some nice bags, and then just mail things you want to AH to him. That way you don't need to travel back and for. The cost of mailing things is so low it's almost pointless to even have it. It's faster to log out on character then back into another than to travel back and forth.

Edit: Doh...I should have combined my two posts.

thats what most of us do. We call them bank's. Mine's name is Wachovia, a lvl 7 rogue lol all he does is stand by the bank, I send him items that I want to AH

Hmmm... Never thought of that. That's an excellent idea. I might just have to make one for myself :p

Hmm... let's see...

If I remember right the only thing I did was go to ____bar3 and changed the Background Texture Name to _L chat2 background, and the Border Texture Name to _L chat2 border.

See if that fixes it for you.

*And I'm US Mug'thol... FOR THE HORDE!!!

Woah such an easy fix! Thanks bud works like a charm! :)

Another way to fix the problem with an addon if you don't know what is causing it is to go into the Saved Variables folder inside the WTF folder which is inside your WoW folder.. and delete the addonnamegoeshere.lua and addonnamegameshere.lua.bak.

Then copy the original saved variable file back into that folder. It should reset it back to how it was pre-messed up. If any of that makes sense..

First day in Outlands, awesome place. About half way to 62. Made about 80-90g haven't even AH'd anything or NPC'd anything good.

About my epic staff I bought for 100g. A afew hours in, I finish a quest chain, and what's my reward? A better staff than the one I just bought. I was ****ed. Then, I get 3 more awesome pieces of gear off quests. I seriously don't need to buy anything.

But I notice the quests don't give as much xp, I haven't even had one that's bumped me up a full bar.

Yeh but there generaly a bit shorter, more varied and better layed out than the Old World stuff. So you can rack up about 10 or so and just fly through them. If you havent got this addon already I strongly suggest it for burning thru a few lvls as it will show you where to go what you need and in most cases do so in a way that,ll get you plenty of xp.

Quest Helper

Oh and your right thru OL and Northrend you shudnt need to buy anything cept maybe a few crappy gems, tho Id get the Northrend common quality ones as soon as in my gear as there awesome while leveling. Should only cost you 1-5g each off of the AH once you can use them. The OL ones are even cheaper still but not as good stat wise.

Those "bubbles" on the XP bar take longer to fill them up every time you go up a level. Soon you'll be getting 20K XP from quests that don't even look like they move the bar. :)

I no longer hear sound in-game. For some reason, everything is muted. I didn't change anything. :/

Check your keyboard shortcuts, for the oddest reason there is keyboard commands to mute all sound. : /

It's command+something, I think command+s. Or alt+s or something. It should be listed in the keyboard commands.

I wanta say its SHIFT+S because I do it all the time when I reinstall or something, and forget to set keybindings.

Thanks! The key binding to mute sound in WoW is Ctrl + S. :)

As a new person to WoW heres a tip I have learn't (and if you read back a few pages you'll get the same tip)

While leveling do not buy Gear!!!

lol, I don't know how many times I have bought gear only to replace it in a few levels, and also have to admit buying a few blues only to replace them :p

I'm leveling a rogue atm, the only thing I have found that I need to buy is a one-handed sowrd. To coincide with an upgrade I get in a quest (I like to have similar dps swords in my off-hand)

Must admit I tried Wow last year and left after a month, but somehow I'm really enjoying the game atm :)

    • Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe After years of waiting, Rockstar will be solidifying the launch date of Grand Theft Auto VI with the launch of pre-orders next week. While the studio has confirmed a date for this occasion, it is yet to attach a price to the highly anticipated game. So let's see what our readers think it will cost at launch. The Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will kick off on June 25 for digital and physical editions. Unless some last-minute changes happen, the release date will be November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. Unfortunately, there's still no information about a PC version from the developer or the publisher Take-Two. Now the question becomes, how much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost at launch? The game is predicted by some analysts to be the biggest launch of an entertainment product ever. With the amount of hype that has been built behind it and with ballooning development costs, Take-Two may price this Grand Theft Auto entry differently from other AAA titles. The current price of a AAA game is $69.99. That norm almost rose to $79.99 before calming down. But with such a massive release, Grand Theft Auto VI may be the game that pushes the boundary again. It's also possible that Take-Two keeps the price relatively low to increase the number of players that jump in early and keep them hooked on Grand Theft Auto Online to spend on microtransactions for years to come. Keep in mind that the below poll is asking for a prediction of the standard edition price, not a deluxe or any other special edition that Take-Two will introduce for additional benefits. Also, there is also the chance of the company splitting up the campaign and online portions. If you think that will happen, put your vote on what you think will be the total cost of the two. Poll Poll: How much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost? $59.99 $69.99 $79.99 $89.99 $100 or more Submit Vote If you have a very specific prediction in mind, sound off in the comments below.

    • The Light of Life? We actually do glow till our Death, study finds

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      The Light of Life? We actually do glow till our Death, study finds by Sayan Sen Image by Rafael Rendon via Pexels A study by researchers at the University of Calgary has found that living organisms produce an extremely faint light known as ultraweak photon emission, and that this glow appears to drop significantly after death. The research was published in the Journal of Physical Chemistry in April 2025 and quickly drew widespread attention, leading to more than 200 news stories about the findings. Ultraweak photon emission (or UPE), sometimes called biophoton emission, refers to tiny amounts of light released by living cells as a result of normal biological activity. A photon is the basic particle of light, and researchers say every living system examined so far, including plants and animals, has been found to emit these photons. The glow is far too faint to be seen by the human eye. “I suppose it has a little to do with people being reminded of auras,” says Dr. Christoph Simon, PhD, one of the authors of the study and a professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy in the Faculty of Science. “It is a fact that living beings glow. It’s a very weak glow, but it’s there and visible with very sensitive cameras.” According to the study, the light involved is extremely weak, ranging from 10 to 1,000 photons per square centimetre per second across a spectral range of 200 to 1,000 nanometres. For comparison, a nanometre is one-billionth of a metre and is commonly used to measure wavelengths of light. Detecting emissions at such low levels requires highly specialized equipment. To study the phenomenon, researchers used electron-multiplying charge-coupled device (EMCCD) and charge-coupled device (CCD) cameras. These imaging systems are designed to detect extremely small amounts of light, including individual photons, while minimizing background noise. The technology allowed researchers to capture signals that would otherwise be impossible to observe. The team worked with the Human Health Therapeutics Research Centre at the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) in Ottawa to examine photon emissions in mice. Researchers took two-hour exposure images of the animals before and after death and compared the results. “We saw that the level of light that they emit – this biophoton glow – is distinctly different between living and dead animals,” says Dr. Daniel Oblak, PhD, an associate professor in Physics and Astronomy and the corresponding author of the study. The images showed a clear decrease in photon emissions after death across the entire body of each mouse. According to the researchers, this provided direct evidence that living and dead tissue produce different levels of ultraweak photon emission. “It’s a very small amount and it’s, of course, very tricky to detect,” Oblak says. The study grew out of discussions between Simon, whose research interests include quantum biology, and Oblak, whose work focuses on detecting light for quantum communication experiments. Quantum biology is a field that explores whether processes described by quantum physics, which studies matter and energy at very small scales, may also play a role in living systems. “Since I work as a quantum physicist on light detection for quantum communication, I thought that experimentally we have a lot of the tools to be able to detect the light,” Oblak explains. The researchers also investigated UPE in plants and found that the light changed in response to stress. When plants were exposed to higher temperatures or physically injured, their photon emissions increased. Chemical treatments also affected the glow. Among the substances tested, the local anesthetic benzocaine produced the strongest emission response when applied to injured plant tissue. These findings suggest that ultraweak photon emission is closely linked to biochemical and metabolic activity inside living organisms. Metabolism refers to the chemical reactions that allow cells and organisms to stay alive and function. Because these reactions change when an organism experiences stress, injury or disease, researchers believe UPE may provide a way to monitor those changes. The researchers stress that the glow is a physical and biological phenomenon, not a metaphysical one. Oblak says more research is needed to understand exactly how the light is produced and what information it may reveal about the condition of living tissue. “We must understand what that is to figure out what’s happening,” he says. “If we can understand how that relates to certain influences on the body – stress, diseases – then that could be used as a diagnostic tool.” The researchers believe the technique could eventually help scientists study health and disease without invasive procedures. Because UPE can be measured without adding dyes, markers or labels, it may offer a way to monitor whether tissue is healthy, damaged or alive. In plants, it could help researchers better understand how organisms respond to injury, heat and other forms of stress. While the work is still in its early stages, the study demonstrates that ultraweak photon emission imaging can provide a non-invasive and label-free way to observe biological activity. Researchers say the approach could become a useful tool for studying vitality, stress responses and other important processes in both animals and plants.
