Bigbunz (lol, nice name, that rocks) asked if I could put up a list of what Addons I was using in the Nalorakk Zul’Aman video.
That is a very reasonable request. And I could do a simple list, sure. But if I’m going to tell you what I use, I’d like to also tell you why… and why I’m not using more than I do. So this is going to make for a long post. Please, bear with me. If you’re not really interested in the BBB Addon setup, just move on by, my friends.
Addons are a very touchy subject with me.
I, personally, feel that if you want to change the look of the game, move menus and such, that customizing your User Interface appearance is an excellent application for Addons.
But basic functionality should be built in. And if, after the course of time, you find out that everyone is downloading the same mods or addons just to play your game effectively, then you should move to build that functionality in.
Don’t get me wrong, please. I know Blizzard has actually added new functionality to the game based on the player’s uses of Addons. Scrolling Combat Text is just one small example of the hard work Blizzard has put into adding new functions to the User Interface that can be enabled, or not, for all players to use and enjoy.
In fact, I technically think Blizzard, and the coders in particular, are simply brilliant and should be applauded for what they HAVE added to the game over the last three years.
I am sitting here trying to pin down why my first, knee-jerk reaction is to be pissed at Blizzard about Addons. And I think I know why.
Blizzard, come on now. It’s been three years. By now, you must have heard of a few websites that players sometimes have been known to use when they get stuck playing your game.
If you haven’t heard of them, let me be the first to clue you in… go check out Wowhead, Thottbot, and Allakhazam. It may shock you to learn that the player community has shared their knowledge on completing your quests.
Yes, it’s true! The answers to your quests are all out there! Cortello’s Riddle? Not quite so tricksy with Wowhead by your side.
Omigod, I know! Total shock, right? Okay, enough, let’s move past that now.
For the love of Elune and the survival of our sanity, please just add in the option of displaying coordinates for our current cursor position on our large game map. Come on. Just add the damn coordinates in. Make it selectable, that’s fine, we don’t want to overwhelm someone starting out for the first time.
But just… grrr! Grrr! Add the damn coordinates, already! Shit!
Sorry. No need to curse, there. Damn it.
Grrr!
Where am I coming from with Addons?
I am, personally, a minimalist. In appearance, I try to work within the basic framework of the core Blizzard UI appearance.
The reason why is actually pretty outdated now.
When I first started playing WoW, I approached it like any other video game. It came out of the box, I installed it, I played it. And I was overwhelmed with all of the thousands of things going on on-screen. It took me a while to get the hang of things, especially coming from a FPS and RTS computer gaming background. The addition of interacting with other people, and all of the customization options, really was overwhelming.
For a long time, I kept a list of emotes and slash “/” commands printed out, like 5 pages long, sitting next to me at the desk. All the commands to type in for guild management, stuff like the basic commands for inviting players to a party, etc. I compiled these huge lists I’d refer to because I had no hope in hell of remembering all those commands I might need.
Over a week or two, of course, I learned most of the commands and stopped referring to my list.
Although, I’ll admit, I moved my Priest alt from my alt guild to the guild my main characters are in just two days ago, and as my Priest was the Guild Mistress of Sidhe Devils, I had to transfer leadership to someone else… and it took me a good solid 5 minutes to figure out how to promote someone else to guild leader position. Maybe I should have kept those lists from two years ago, somewhere, after all.
The point here is, after playing for a week or so, and struggling to get my Druid up to level 10, and the promise Blizzard made that I’d get to be a kitty someday, I encountered the Bear form quest chain… and took my first step in going to a search engine and typing in ‘Warcraft Druid Bear Form quest’.
I haven’t tried that right now… in fact, I find it funny to think that it’s possible I may enter that and come up with my own guide, these days. But back then, I got a few hits, and the one I remember reading, referred to coordinates. “Go to coordinate such-and-so, and you’ll find the great bear spirit.” Well, what the hell are coordinates?
And further internet searching opened my eyes to the holy of holies back then, Thottbot. Hey, hallelujah. Can I get an Amen? Oh yeah, baby.
And someone commenting in a Thottbot item asked the same question I had; how the hell do I find coordinates? And someone else responded in the comments by saying; “With an Addon to your map.”
An Addon? To my map? What the hell is an Addon?
Well, doing a search for Addons and Warcraft brought me to an Addon and Mod download source for World of Warcraft. I think it was www.worldofwar.net. And my game life was changed, forever.
I went Addon crazy.
I totally revamped my UI, added mods and addons out the wazoo. I changed the entire face of the game, and in fact, probably made it way, WAY too complicated, but I was wrapped in the throes of a new love affair with Addons.
And then the first big patch came since I started playing.
Oops! Shit done got broke.
And I learned the first lesson of the Addon user; when a patch comes, expect your shit to break.
And the hardest part, for me, was that most of my Addons didn’t get updated for over a week. And I was now so used to playing with the Addons… I’d forgotten how to play normally!
Well, I learned my lesson. Ever since then, I do not use Addons that change my User Interface so drastically that it would negatively impact my ability to play my class if I were suddenly without them, so long as I had a Threat Meter and my macros.
Why, look at that. I think I’ve identified something other than coordinates that I think should be considered core functionality that needs to be added to the game. A threatmeter for parties and raids. But I beat that poor dead horse already, let’s move on.
The meat of the post; My installed Addons.
For my threatmeter, I use Omen. I really like it’s features, and it fully interacts with the old KLHThreatmeter or whatever it was called. Omen just rocks, I love it. And bonus… it shows my pets’ threat when I’m soloing on my Hunter. Just me and my pet, no party, and I can see exactly how much threat my kitty is putting out. I swear, KLHThreatmeter didn’t do that for me. I LOVE it.
If you don’t know what a threat meter is for, it displays the threat list of whichever mob you have targeted. Whoever is on top, is the person the mob hates the most. If you are on the top, generally, the mob hates you most, and will come to kill you. If you are the tank, you always want to be on top. (Hey, I just got an idea for a new t-shirt. Nobody else steal that, now. But expect to see a shirt someday soon saying ‘Tanks like it on top’ with a picture of a Bear tanking a mob with the threatmeter displayed in the background. Yes, I’m sick. This is how my mind works. Sue me.)
For Raid bars to show me buffs, health and mana of all raid members, messages and target of target and all of the other essentials for raiding, I use X-Perl UnitFrames. I am not quite happy with it, I have the sneaking suspicion that there might be others that are better, or at least prettier… but I have this one installed and configured now, and I’m raiding too much to have the time to experiment. Out of the box, it’s default settings hated my widescreen monitor resolution, so every time I make a new character, it loads the defaults and I have to load up another characters’ profile and save it, and generally dink around with it. That has a lot to do with my annoyance. But it gets the raiding job done, so meh.
For creating equipment sets so that I can swap my entire equipped gear with the press of one button, I use ItemRack. Although you can, I never ever set any ‘automatic’ equipment changes with ItemRack. You can set it to, for example, change out your current trinket with a Carrot on a Stick or Riding Crop when you mount, but I just never do. In the basic sets, I have a cat gear DPS set and a bear gear tanking set programmed into ItemRack. But since you can also swap Idols and Weapons on the fly in combat, I have those items with their own sets so I can change those depending on the situation.
I’m serious here; end game Druid raiders especially know what I’m talking about. If you are in tank gear, but you are playing off-tank and doing kitty DPS in a raid most of the run, having your DPS weapon/Idol and Tank weapon/Idol on seperate hotkeys or ItemRack sets is very handy. It can make a surprising difference if you are in your tank gear, with your DPS weapon (Like Illhoofs’ staff) and Everbloom Idol equipped for laying down the damage, and then when someone yells “Trap broke, Wind go grab Square”, you can do a Feral Charge across the room, tap a button to change instantly to Earthwarden and Idol of Terror, and smack that Square idjits’ head in full-on tank mode. I’m just saying.
The real hardcore set things up to swap in different Idols depending on what particular part of DPS they are on at the moment. Since each Idol enhances a different part of DPS, some folks switch them out in the course of one fight to maximize each type of blow. I am not raiding as a cat enough to have experimented much with that level of maximizing DPS, but hey. I need to mention it anyway; you’re probably raiding higher level stuff than I am, and that info may come in handy.
For dealing with raid encounters, I use Deadly Boss Mods. It provides warnings and timers in raids, and for the raider, some kind of raid encounter warning is mandatory. I hear that some folks use BigWigs, and that it does about the same. Is BigWigs better? I have absolutely no idea, I have never compared them. Deadly Boss Mods is what I use, it’s the Addon that warns me when Nalorakk is about to shift to bear form, and gives me a timer to his next shapeshift, etc.
As you could see in the video, I don’t use any button bar mods at all. I have every default button bar enabled and organized, and I reduced their size using the User Interface options. I think they’re set to something like 64% of normal size.
For all the cute bells and whistles, I use Fubar 2.0 as my base frame for installing extra plugins. I set it to have a single bar at the top of the screen, and in it I run GuildFu and FriendFu, I have LocationFu, DurabilityFu, ExperienceFu, AmmoFu (for my Hunter) and ClockFu. There might be a few more, but those pretty much give me the basics of quick access to managing my contacts with mouseover and quick leveling XP per hour and suggested zone breakdowns for my alts. And a clock displayed in the corner of the screen. There are tons of FuBar plugins, and I’ve used lots of them. You can go nuts on these, and frankly, I’m sure there are more I’d enjoy. But I pared down recently, so this is what I’m using now.
For my financing, I use the Auctioneer Classic suite. It’s just pretty much a given at this point. I can’t imagine playing without it. FYI, it updated about 2 days ago to a new version as of this posting.
I have made a big change recently, however. I no longer use Gatherer for tracking ore or herb nodes on the map.
Instead, I am using Cartographer for my map addon, with it’s waypoints and such. I am using several plugins for Cartographer, that install Gatherer-style functionality that works very well.
I use an addon called Ogri’lazy, simply because it automates tracking colors during the Ogri’la simon says daily quests. It takes minimal memory and kicks ass. I wrote a post about it a long time ago.
For tracking what is going on during raid fights, Damage Meter and Heal Meter and Overheals, etc from an analysis point of view, others in our Guild swear by SW Stats. I have not, as yet, installed it as I’ve been tanking and not worried about damage output. But with my Priest coming up the levels, and my role beginning to switch to tank/DPS, I’ll be installing it over the weekend.
The last Addon I use is Scrolling Combat Text. I know Blizzard implemented their own version, but I like the customization of SCR. I can display lots more options, and set thresholds a lot better with SCR than the default.
So, I’ve come to the end of a mammoth post. As you can see, I truly use about the minimum of what I think I can get away with, and still have some extra goodies to make my life easier. And it is still a long list of Addons.
I have another reason why I have chosen the ones I use, by the way. It’s not all randomness. Most of these are coded using the Ace2 foundation of data… and there is an automated update download and install tool called WoWAceUpdater that will check all of my Ace2 addons, and with one button will download and install all available updates instantly. It laso displays all available Ace2 Addons, and you can select one and download and install it right from the updater. No need to go to Cursegaming searching for it. So it makes finding new updates on patch day very painless. Only a few of my mods aren’t Ace2. See? I ain’t entirely stupid. Mostly, but not entirely, anyway.
If you have suggestions for replacing any of these, or if you use a ‘can’t live without it’ Addon, feel free to suggest it in the comments. I do try new things quite often, and I’m always open to change. See my use of Omen and dropping of Gatherer for examples.
And if I do decide to drop something in favor of something new, you can be sure I’ll post about it, and why I made the switch.
But I promise you; no switch commercials from me. That shit was funny for about 30 seconds.

Check out Assessment (from wowace.com) - combined threat/swstats and (as far as I can see) more accurate than Omen/Ktm/… and SWStats.
Plus it allows you to take e.g. healing meters, click on an individual’s name and it gives you a new overview of what spells they’ve used and how often etc… great for evaluating/guiding new guild members.
January 31st, 2008 at 3:32 pm
FYI…I saw on mmo-champion.com that a couple of the UI improvements Blizzard is looking at for WotLK are threat meters and an ItemRack/Outfitter type gear switcher. Saw the post there for a link to the source post by a blue.
As for addons, you could look at Pitbull for your raid frames. It’s available on WowAceUpdater, but I’ve not had much chance to play with in from a raid frames perspective.
I also prefer to use Outfitter for my gear changer. It’s kept more up to date than Item Rack (isn’t that unsupported by the author now anyhow?) and it’s on WAU as well. It also has some automatic switching that can be done for you in the settings.
Another addon I would strongly recommend is Autobar (Ace2 as well). It basically puts a configurable bar on your screen that let’s you access a large amount of items/skills from a single button. I’ve actually freed up screen space by using this, and will likely scale down my use of other action bar addons soon because of it.
I’ve heard there’s another SCT type addon out there. Haven’t looked into it and don’t remember the name, but I plan to since there are some things about SCT that bug me.
January 31st, 2008 at 3:43 pm
I like Recount over SwStats, not only b/c I can update it with the WoWAce updater, but I like that it gives breaks out fights on its own and you don’t have to continually reset stats for everyone.
I’ve heard good things about Big Wigs in terms of a WoWAce replacement for Deadly Boss Mods, but I have yet to try it.
Since you use Fubar, you can use Wardrobe instead of ItemRack and it will show up right in your Fubar interface.
January 31st, 2008 at 3:44 pm
I use the following:
Omen - Threat Meter. Its better than KTM because it reports to KTM as well, where as KTM does not report to Omen.
Deadly Boss Mods - This is a must-have for all raid instances. Even if the timers are off on some of the bosses, its still very essential to know what what is about to happen.
Item Rack - I have a full set of Gear for Bear and a full set for Tank. In additon, when I do Arena or PvP, I have a mixed set I use. Item Rack allows for easy, instant gear changes for each situation.
Quartz - This is a MUST for all casters. It shows you a latency timer bar along with your cast bars, giving you an indication when you can start your next casting which is not properly shown by the WoW cast bar due to latency. (I use this for alts, not Bear tanking)
Heal Bot - Great healer mod. Makes large-group healing much more manageable. (I use this for my Belf Pally)
And last…
Ogri-Lazy - Being color blind, the “Relic’s Emination” (Simon) game that’s an Ogri’la daily sucks for me. This makes it much easier. Now I do it without a single failure.
January 31st, 2008 at 3:46 pm
James - I’ll be sure to check out Outfitter this weekend. Thanks for the mention of it vs. Item Rack.
January 31st, 2008 at 3:49 pm
This pretty much describes my exact experience with addons. I started without, learned about map coordinates and ended up using Cosmos for awhile, then eventually realized it was a resource hog that gave me more functionality than I needed. I then slimmed down and eventually migrated to Ace2, which as you’ve said is a great addon framework.
I also very much became opposed to becoming too reliant on add-ons earlier in my WoW career. Pre-BC, I would raid with my heal priest. I prided myself on being a great healer without add-ons, especially because I could see how terrible many raiders suddenly became after a patch broke theirs. For instance, when Decursive broke, I seemed to become the only person who was actually able to watch out for debuffs and dispel them. I used to hate this in MC where there was a trash mob DOT that silenced you, because while I could keep it off others, no one kept it off me. I used to look down on people who had long lists of “required” add-ons for raiding, viewing most of these essentials as crutches.
But I’d say things are changed a bit since TBC came out, and I can’t afford to be so proud/stubborn anymore. Certain add-ons have become much more necessary than they used to be. And add-on developers seem to be much more on the ball about delivering working add-ons on patch day, anyways.
So I’m also in agreement with you that Blizzard needs to be incorporating some of this stuff into the base game already. Coordinates and threatmeters are also at the top of my list. I used to feel that DPS ought to be able to “feel” their way through threat and be able to stay under the tank, if at a suboptimal level of DPS (and that healers didn’t need threatmeters since you were doomed if your tank couldn’t hold aggro over them). But fights, especially raid fights, are so much more dependent on maximizing DPS than they used to be that threatmeter functionality really ought to be coming out of the box.
I use most of the addons you listed, and don’t have many additional suggestions. I second the endorsement of Ace2 though. I’d say the most significant things I use other than the ones you’ve listed are Quartz and Sorren’s Timers (both Ace2). My priest is now shadow, so he uses
Quartz cast bars so I can compensate for latency issues in my cast sequences. I use Sorren’s Timers for tracking my DOTs so I know when to refresh.
January 31st, 2008 at 4:35 pm
I like Recount for damage meters, as it breaks the individual attack data down the way I like it.
And, re: Assessment, I haven’t noticed it to be better or more accurate than Omen for threat, and it’s much harder to set up than doing something like an Omen/Recount combo.
I used Outfitter for gear as I was having problems with Item Rack kicking out taint errors. And there is a fubar plugin for Outfitter.
I use Parrot for SCT functions, because it shows everything by default, which is what I want. Esp, mana aquisition on my pally;).
January 31st, 2008 at 4:48 pm
I want to thank all of you for the great comments. Seriously guys, it sounds like there are some awesome alternatives to the stuff I use that I could be trying, and I’m going to spend some time trying them out tomorrow. Any good, solid Ace2 alternatives to what I use are hugely welcome suggestions.
I really appreciate it!

I don’t know if DeadlyBossMods has a similar counterpart or not, but one nice feature of BigWigs is its associated addon LittleWigs, which provides warnings and timers for the 5-man Outlands instances as well. Not a big deal, but it’s made life in heroics somewhat less painful…
January 31st, 2008 at 5:24 pm
One addon that I’ve found to be very valuable which I haven’t seen listed so far is DruidBar. This might already be included with Xperl, though.
Basically, it just shows you a mana bar (movable), that shows how much mana you have when you’re shapeshifted. This is extremely important now with the advent of the Powershift.
January 31st, 2008 at 5:41 pm
I admire your commitment to not become addon dependant.. but I’d rather suffer the pain of updating addons after patch days rather than the continual pain of a painful UI/gaming experience.
Things I use that I don’t see you using:
Loggerhead to toggle the combatlog for WWS reports. If you haven’t dug into it, WWS blows Recount/SWStats/everything else out of the water. WWS of last night’s alt Kara run: http://wowwebstats.com/r6emumkgr6omy
Depositbox: http://chicanery.fibergeek.com/2007/06/07/deposit-box/
Allows me to hide my money from myself. If I see it I’ll spend it. I setup deposit box to take 60%of my incoming money and automatically throw it into the box. Of the remaining 40% if my “seen” money is > 100g I throw all but 25 of it into the deposit box. This has allowed me to easily acquire 2000 g without realizing it. (I’d have more but I’ve been lazy about daily’s lately)
Grid+Clique for healing.
TBag for inventory management. TBags automatically re-arranges my inventory so I always know where to look for different types of items.
MobNotes - This is a nice-to-have. It allows you to add “notes” to a mobs mouse-over tooltip. This is nice for remembering “Oh yeah, these things can’t be CCd” or “This mob fears, kill her first”. Also very nice for keeping track of Moroes adds. Each add has a note of their class and skills.. and I’ve added a priority to kill number.

I use far more addons than I should. >.> But since they’re mostly ACE, they rarely break. *grin*
Bartender: I love love love this add -on. On my hunter, I have everything left side of the keyboard bound. 1-6 are my main ranged attacks, and if I hold down the alt key, bartender pages to my melee bar. *grin*
Autobar: CANNOT recommend enough. Not only will it add a moveable consumeable bar, that’s SMART (IE, puts mage crafted foods first, have your highest listed consumable the one shown, things like that). Its also got built in trinket control, hearthstone/mount buttons (hearthstone button also keeps my moonglade teleport there in a popup button) and tons of other things.
I think my other two real favorites are Violation (another set of damage meters that aren’t 100% accurate, but enough to give you an idea what everyone’s done), and Parrot. Parrot is the scrolling combat text by the author who did Cartographer. On my hunter I have it doing a double rainbow. My damage upper right arc, incoming damage to me, upper left arc, my PET’S damage dealt lower left, and damage my pet’s received lower right. Let’s me really see at a glance what’s going on and who’s doing what.
January 31st, 2008 at 6:32 pm
It’s not a combat addon, but Rating Buster is one that I think I’d go insane without. It breaks down all the ratings into percentages, including the complicated ones like expertise, and prints a comparison to what you have equipped in the tooltip. I find it makes comparing gear a lot easier - red bad, green good - and makes expertise a lot easier to understand intuitively (dodge neglect and parry neglect).
I’m another fan of Outfitter, Healbot, and BigWigs (and LittleWigs), of the addons already mentioned. I’ve also picked up some things from BigRedKitty - like CooldownTimers, and I like ClassTimers for tracking short-duration buffs and debuffs in visual bars.
…of course, I’m kind of addon-insane, so you might not want to listen to all of my recommendations.
January 31st, 2008 at 7:27 pm
If you go for Recount (which i love), i recommend foregoing the wowace.com version in favor of Recount (Preservation) — http://wow.curse.com/downloads/details/10598/ — which has been updated, whereas the original seems to have stagnated.
Turning off synchronization while in raids is recommended, as Recount has been known to be extremely inefficient in its use of data for synching. The (Preservation) version might have alleviated that, but i am not sure. With your combat log range bumped up to 200, though, your meter should be accurate to reality within 1% anyway.
January 31st, 2008 at 7:28 pm
An addendum to that:
If you get Recount (Preservation), you’ll want to tell your WoWAceUpdater to ignore Recount, as updating that will overwrite it with the original.
January 31st, 2008 at 7:57 pm
Regarding switching to WowAce addons, a few popped into my mind while reading your article…
Outfitter - A highly recommended replacement for Item Rack (or Closet Gnome). While Outfitter isn’t naturally Ace’d, I recommend getting FuBar_OutfitterFu, which allows you to control it from your Fubar.
Deadly Boss Mods - As you said, BigWigs (and it’s little brother LittleWigs) is a very viable replacement for DBM, and it’s very easy to update using WAU.
SW Stats - As has been mentioned, Recount is an excellent Ace alternative (which also has a bunch more amazing features such as graphs and charts that can really help you out if you use them correctly).
Scrolling Combat Text - There’s an alternative coded by ckknight called Parrot which was designed to replace SCT. Also highly recommended.
January 31st, 2008 at 8:11 pm
I found the amazing addon called Lightheaded and won’t even attempt to quest without it
I would suggest you trying it out for an alt and seeing how you like it!
What it does is make another box beside your basic quest box that gives the basic XP gained, who you got the quest/ where you turn it in(and click on the name for basic coords!), etc. Then, you can click the little arrows at the bottom and it displays the comments people have left on that quest from Wowhead! Makes questing so much easier instead of having to tab out and look it up!

The first add-on I installed and the only one I really, really can’t live without is Cartographer. I was shocked when I started playing WoW and realized there was no way to mark destinations on the map.
I’ll second recommendations for Quartz. It’s not Ace2 but it’s almost a necessity for casters. For a tank, it would show incoming spells so you know when to interrupt or at least what’s going to hit you. The swing timer is also nice so you don’t have to button-mash.
Omen is better than KTM because it uses less memory and broadcasts less. It was built around a philosophy of minimalism, which is good for maintaining framerate.
If your healers are using VisualHeal, you might like to have it installed as well. It will show you incoming heals to help you decide whether to pop a potion.
I like BankItems, a lightweight Ace2 addon that will track what’s in your bank, the guild bank (as of your last visit), and the bags and banks of all your alts.
I’m not a fan of Recount/stat type add-ins. I think they create bad habits and misunderstandings between players
February 1st, 2008 at 3:59 am
Mmm. I am a Pitbull unit frame user. It might have some things you like like a thin druid mana bar while you are in bear form and a couple other bells and whistles.
The only trick is that… its SUPER customizable and basically you will spend a week getting it the way you like. < .< Wowace forums has a couple people showing their setups for ideas/swiping though.
Nice to see your list as I begin to level my druid. I was worried there was secret druid Addons that I was unaware of. XD
February 1st, 2008 at 7:28 am
Some very interesting stuff there - must try a few of them when I get off from work
I have a question that some of you might be able to answer. It’s probobly pretty simple, but I’m at a loss trying to figure it out.
I’m using Cooldowntimers 2 and really like it. I’ve placed the cooldownbars on different parts of my screen and locked them in place (as it’s done when you first install it). My problem is that I can’t figure out how to “unlcok” them again so I can redesign my layout of the bars on my screen. Some of them are a bit overlapping and I’d like to clean it up.
I really hope there’s an easy though somewhat eluding solution to this
Cheers Morannon of Darksorrow.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:05 pm
Took me a while to figure out how to unlock the Cooldown Timers2 bars too
If you right-click on the CT2 icon (I use Fubar, assume it would work for the mini-map), go through the Group & Announce Settings submenus and uncheck anywhere that Locked is checked. Should bring them all back…
February 13th, 2008 at 2:28 pm
Aside from BigWigs (which really isn’t mine anymore)… I see no mention of my addons.
FOR SHAME! You should be supporting a fellow bear/cub here.
And where’s that bear on bear action you promised me?
Yes I know, I’m like 2 weeks late on the comment, but damnit there’s just way too many things in my RSS reader to keep up with anymore.
February 13th, 2008 at 5:13 pm
tekkub! You did Rawr?
Wow, now that is a celebrity, in my opinion!
Well, Ferocious Bite did a full size story on Rawr, and since I live over on her site, I assumed so did everyone else.
I’ll try and be good.
And I DID Bear on Bear action, on my Zul’Aman bear boss video. I DID!
Honest!
February 13th, 2008 at 11:09 pm
Hrm… no my addon named Rawr is much, much different… nice try there but you’re not forgiven
