Yeah and speaking of spam, encourage people to turn off their “I just picked up another worthless Tauren’s tail” spam

Why not just tell people when you are done…

Some people install and never open the options of course…

I had not had a singlThen I read Gnome’s post. I have DCed 3x in Dal now. Needless to say I shut it down before I go to Dal.

So, Gnomageddon; I’d like to blame you for causing Dal to hiccup on me now ;)

Seriously though, I’m glad I read this BEFORE I started having problems. If I had started seeing all the disconnects, I may have quit in frustration.

Oh, and the Leatrix addon? It dropped my “usual” latency of 260-300ms down to 120-130ms. NICE!!!!

I’ve become rather dependant on Carbonite. Without the “go here” question marks and little X-es on my map (and without those nicer maps) I am just about lost. (I don’t have quest helper either)

It’s really only when you start getting into mega populated cities that it’s gonna cause you problems. So… Just Dalaran, or maybe SW and Org during a holiday. Or if you’re running wow on a struggling machine. Otherwise Carbonite should be just fine until you switch your hearth to Dal.

But I beg you please, recommend they turn off the annoying chat announcement feature… for the sanity of their guildies and partymates! :P

I will be having words with my guildies and trying to persuade them to do without it I think.

Seriously though, if you DON’T have someone around to give you tips on where to quest, WAY TOO MANY of the old world quests are long trudges with littl/no clue as to how to complete them.

What WOULD you suggest?

Call me a gimp, but if it weren’t for Carby, I’d be lost on a number of my qyests…

I also get very annoyed with people whose Carbonite tells me every time they pick up a quest item. I don’t #$%@#$ care how many hellboar-buzzard-eyeball-head-feet you have! I do care about important things in my chat window being forced out by hellboar-related junk.
