No Picture, No Service

BRK » 24 September 2007 » In WoWInsider »

So we wrote a really good Top Ten List for the patch that comes out tomorrow. So good, in fact, we’re sending it to WoW Insider for publishing.

Ka-ching, says Mrs BRK.

But we have no picture. And we also got a massive blast-email telling all the bloggers and columns the Do This and Don’t Do Thats of picture thievery. We’re not going to go and screw that up just twenty minutes after being told how to do it Right.

We’ll do that tomorrow.

OR!

We can beg and cajole our editor to doing into doing it for us.

She reads this blog; it’s how we got picked to be a WoW Insider columnist. But we’ve also sent her an email describing our plight. If she reads about our need for help here before she gets the email…

We think we’ll have blackmail material. And we bank that stuff, you’d better believe it.

Edit: Our editor came through big-time. Thank you thank you thank you. We grovel at her majestic yet dangling feet.

    Take a screen print of you and Hobbes..or just Hobbes. Really no one reads you column for you. Basically, we read your column for

    1) Hobbes
    2) MrsBRK..think of this like a support group for her.
    3) Opportunities to make fun of your latte drinking habits.

    Or am I just odd?

    CM Neth pretty much said the patch is coming out tomorrow in response to a forum post over on the general forums( a wretched hive of scum and villainy).

    So that’s where everyone is getting this.

    I’ve not seen an email on the do’s and don’t of picture thievery. Can I find this information elsewhere?

    Bah, just post a picture of your incredibly Beautiful wife (yes, she deserves a capital “B”) wearing a red kitty ear headband. Has absolutely nothing to do with the Top Ten, true… But maybe the foaming-at-the-mouth idiots will be so stunned by her Beauty (OMG, succubus suduction, hurhurhur) they’ll keep their traps shut, and the grownups can talk.

    Wildly offtopic, but have you noticed the price of pet respeccing has gone up past the steady 10s it used to be? I tested it on the PTR before it went live, and it seems to cap out at 10g, has anyone else noticed this? Has it been this way for a while?
