Image from WoW TCG This is a guest post by Wistoovern, a long time priest raider and real life friend of mine. I don’t often, if ever receive guest posts.

Been a while since I’ve had one of these, figure it’s about time. Be warned that this is a rant / venting session that you all get to read. These are my opinions and you may or may not share them. This is the result of conversations I’ve been having with multiple people from multiple [...]

A call to arms, with incentive.

September is national suicide prevention month, but if you ask me every month, every week, every day should be a day we seek to prevent suicide. That we try to give those that feel they don’t have any other options support, and help them see there are other choices. This will definitely be a bit [...]

A Beginning, an End and a Beginning Part 1

“It’s done. The deed that so many wished accomplished is over with, and Arthas is dead. Though he is gone, the Lich King persists and may yet have a place in all of this. The worst part is, I can openly talk about what happened up there.” Lodur gazed out across the frozen plains of [...]

City of Heroes is coming to a close, and I have many feels about it.

lodur — Sat, 01 Sep 2012 06:36:34 +0000

City of Heroes coming to the end of it’s life is actually pretty sad. It was the first, and the best, super hero MMO to date. It was the first community that I was a vocal and active member of when it came to online gaming. From beta, to release, to even now almost a [...]

Lodur’s thoughts on the MoP healer mana issue

lodur — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 20:29:29 +0000

The fixed mana, mana cost of healing spells and mana regeneration for all healers has been a hot topic as of late, especially among my leafy and plate wearing friends. So I figured I’d offer my two cents on it. I have nothing against any healing class, and again those numbers are just based on [...]

The Lodur Show: Mists

lodur — Thu, 14 Jun 2012 20:19:30 +0000

If you couldn’t tell I’ve really been enjoying Mists of Pandaria. If I’m going to be completely honest, my level of enjoyment in the Mists beta has far exceeded anything I’ve felt in all the time we’ve had Cataclysm. I love the animations and models, I love the lush new zones. I love the very distinct Asian [...]

Gamer culture: sexism, racism, bigotry and rape

lodur — Tue, 12 Jun 2012 05:07:39 +0000

Catchy title right? This is your one warning, this is going to be a bit of a rant, some of the things I say in this post you might not agree with but I need to get this off my chest. Again, that’s your one warning. Last night I got into a pretty heated debate [...]
