Welcome!
Let’s get this party started! We’re nowhere near done and there’s going to be loads of changes to come.But this is our new home, for better or for worse.Let’s hope for the better, shall we?
Edit: First problem solved, comment moderation turned off. OK folks, there’s a boatload of stuff we’re going to mess up, switch wrong, delete, and just plain f-up. Please, no rioting.
Edit 2: Some “BRK Is Moving” FAQs:
We are not sticking with this theme; it is temporary. Don’t diss the colors, we don’t like them either.
The old site will remain up until such time as we feel confident… about everything.We have one bachelors degree in Computer Science, but that does NOT mean we have a clue what we’re doing.
All the links-sections will be recreated, but it’ll take some doin’. Patience, younglings.
The forums, or should we say “forum”, is there because we can have it. No work will be done on it until the blog is just right.
We did get the banner up – that was the #1 Critical Item – and the WoWhead popups work. Also, we caused neither the atmosphere to catch fire, the Alps to rise, nor Los Angeles to sink into the Pacific. And Mrs BRK didn’t fillet us for the $80 we spent on hosting. We’re really proud of all that.

Grats on the new homepage BRK!

I’m back pestering too!
Hmm? You now moderate comments?
Where’s the “general purpose” feed? Not the coment rss feed that shows on this page…
BRK! Welcome to your new page! Are all your old entries going to be moved or will brk.blogspot.com just stay as it is? just curious…
Also, any chance you’ll drop us a hint as to what you plan to do specifically on this page, now that you are free of whatever limitations blogger imposed? Thanks for all the great work, and the ORI story had me in tears. Keep it up, BRK!
Woot and Grats! Glad to see all of your helpful posts transferred over. Thanks for all the advice!
Wow BRK looks spiffy – congrats on the new space – especially glad to see that you are just upgrading and not disappearing. Thanks for and the Hunter wisdom – Looking forward to more epic Hunter/Non-hunter stuff
Congratulations on the new home BRK!
Hope this leads to many bigger and better things. Keep up the good work!
Heres to many more useful blogs, which have stopped many a hunter, myself included, from becoming huntards.

P.S.
Finally an RSS feed!
Welcome aboard the WordPress wagon, friend.
Excellent! Another blogger has found the light. Grats BRK on the move =)!
Grats on the new site. Good luck.

Congrats on the new site!
Make sure that the “How to Build a BM Hunter” article is prominent. I hand that link out a lot
WordPress > Blogger, hands down. Congrats on the upgrade!
Where’s the RSS feed?
Looking good so far! I’m sure you’ll have it up and running to your satisfaction in no time. Thanks for letting us share it with you.
Wordpress! /cheer
Own domain name! /cheer
Getting rid of blogspot! /cheer
Grats all around
Might want to take out that advert in footer.php though…
Whoohooo 1st one here!
Congrats on the new site BRK. I look forward to hanging here with you.
Cheers

DUDE!!! Grats on the new home. I had a mini-heart attack, until I realized you were just moving, not bidding fare-well. I can’t wait till BRK gets so big, they change Google to “BIGREDGOOGLE.”
Glad to see you’re still “Changing the world one Huntard at a time.”
Reading BRK multiple times a day

[...] WoW Blogger BigRedKitty has migrated from his home on Blogspot to his own domain. A quick examination of his footer reveals that he too has switched over to the Wordpress [...]
I think the new site looks great. I’m glad you took the time to move all your previous posts and comments into your new site so we could enjoy a completely seamless transition. Good luck with the new site and I hope you enjoy the freedom of all it brings.

Hey BRK, welcome to your new home!! I gotta tell ya, when I first saw that you were ending your presence on blogspot, I thought you were saying you were *going away* and my heart sank. What would I read and laugh over? Where would the nerd numbers be!? /sighofreleif

Woot! Housewarming party!
Ooo. Bigger and better!
allo poppet! it is I, Kelektra! Nice new digs!
Oh! LOL. Good times. Glad you have your own site! Woot for BRK!!
About time you took the plunge into wordpress. It’s a bit annoying at first, but the ability to design your own site or upload custom themes makes the whole experience worthwhile.
Damn you BRK, you scared me there… I thought you gave up for good for a few seconds.
What I know about BM huntery I have basically learned (t)here. Wouldn’t want to lose that.
I have to comment you, much better name and a pretty nice layout.
Hey there BRK. Congrats on the new site, and good luck on the book.
I’ve gotten a lot of great info from your blog and articles on wowinsider.com. Thanks.
Don’t you have a shuttle to launch?
Good to see you’ve made the switch, BRK! Plenty of us you can bug for help if you should need it (doubtful, at best).
Oh…and a comments feed would be nice!
Welcome on the other side. Just a small note, your main site feed has no name yet, it shows up as “title unknown” in my reader.
Not only is the name unkown, if I add it to Favourites the name is the http://www.bigredkitty.net url instead a cool name for the Site
Neat move, may I ask how “painless” it was to move everything here?
p.s.: IF you look below it says “Copyright (c) 2007″, but not by whom
Gratz on the new webby. Best of luck with getting it looking and feeling right
Did your blog just ding?? Grats on the new place
Orionn and Humar
Wow its all new and shiny, and the furniture’s not covered in pet hairs yet! good luck working out how to use this place properly.
You don’t seem to have a page title yet!
BRK,
You had me worried there for a millisecond. Glad to see that the morning paper will still be landing in the driveway.
Thank you.
BRK, I don’t care where you reside, as long as I get a feast of your huntery goodness each day, I WILL be happy!
/riot!
But….but…What about your old posts? Having moved blogs myself I “Know how incredibly horrid copying all the old stuff can be- with the old site remain as an archive? Or will the Amazing, Astonishing, Astounding, Awesome Archives of Ancient Hunter Wisdom and non-n00bness be moved to a bigger better building?
Now that you have redecorated your blog, it’s time to paint the friggin’ bedroom!!
‘grats on the move! Must remember to update bookmarks at work.
I know you’re proud of the fact that you managed to get stuff working without LA sinking into the Pacific… but I was wondering if I could request that in a future update? Maybe if you’re good… all of California, not just LA?
Anywho, grats on the new site, and glad to hear you’re still going strong after all this time!

@ Vixenytli & Chuck: Importing Blogger to WordPress (posts & comments) is pretty trivial: A couple button presses and it’s done!
@ BRK: Still looking for a single Comments feed. (Tip: Try FeedBurner.com)
Grats on the new site. I’m not sure how content filters at the workplace function but I can see it for now… I’d hate to lose the great reads just because of how a site is described though.
Gratz on the move. Hope your enjoy more room here to Aim and Shoot. Updated my Link to here.
Yay grats on the new site BRK – I too had a moments fear when I thought you were closing down not moving house!
