Hey ya'll.

I thought I'd share with you a fun moment I had the past two days in Warcraft. I took two days off of work with a RL friend of mine to level, and we didn't waste a minute of it. Leveling four times on our main toons, and twice on alts we had. Anyways, this tale takes place in the Western Plaguelands in a little town called Andorhal. I'm sure many of you are familure with it.

My friend, Blimpie, and I had been playing a day already by this point, and we had been talking about how tame the PvP had become lately. See, Dark Iron is a PvP realm and we're used to the Gank or be Ganked nature of it all. But as we've been Questing and spotting the High Level Alliance, or Gankers, We, the Gankees, expected the worst. However the Gankers simply ran us by and ignored us.

It got to the point where I was actually starting to feel insulted. I mean, aren't we gank worthy? Anyways, I got a whisper from a fellow horde in the area saying to be careful, there are some Gankers riding about. "WOOT alright!" I'm thinking, finally some action!

So Blimpie and I are doing the Cauldron Quests, and are working on the fourth and final one. We just pull the Cauldron Lord to get his key when one of them Gankers appear. We pull the Cauldron Lord back away and the Ganker dismounts charges and starts casting spells! I charge forward, fear flying off my fingertips before I realized i even hit the button! As the Ganker ran around like Grover from Sesame Street (Near... Far... Near... Far... heh ok well I found it funny), I turn back to the mobs we're fighting. Thats when I noticed something odd. The mobs were all dieing very fast, and my buddy Blimpie is standing there without a scratch.

I put two and two together and suddenly realized that the Ganker was really helping. DOH. and as this dawned on me, and I turned around with a /apologize already typed out, I see the Alliance become what I thought he was in the beginning... a Ganker!

Yeah, so I totally created that which I feared the most. The irony of it all hit me as I was running back to my body.

I love the Grover reference. I always used to do that in real life, unfortunately most people thought I was mentally challenged....
