    That's terrifying to see the exponential growth for that need. Is there a consensus for the drivers? Too much technology? Unengaged parents due to technology or having to work too much? Very sad.

    Lol damn. I played hardcore in 2005/6 and 09-10. I tried playing in legion a bit. Played the AH mostly.

    Idk if I can ever go back tho. It just doesn't feel the same and I didn't have the time to dedicate to it.

    Pretty cool to see this tho. I'm glad others are having fun.

    For the AQ scenario is that the whole event? That was a crazy time. Are they allowing people to get the bug mount again?

    Is her that these pages could be tracked and showed them where they were and then when they time was right they attacked quickly and devastatingly.

    Same. I sweat a lot and and a bit greasy so washing is a must. I definitely feel not comfortable and sleep better with clean sheets.

    Walk up to the booth and ask them what their company does. You ain't have to talk much, they try to sell it to you. That will get you in the groove.
