So, where will I be in ten more years? I mean, a part of me wants to say I’ll finally be free of Blizzard’s grasp and this blog won’t even exist anymore, but honestly I thought that would be the case ten years ago, so I’m not going to put anything past my future self anymore.Īnd come on, let’s face it.
Oh, and I’m on tumblr a lot, although you should probably only look into that if you really like the Dragon Age series because that’s my current obsession. I’ve also been writing, uh, *coughs* fanfiction. I do NaNoWriMo (and win it) every single year, which I am pleased to say I was originally encouraged to do by the WoW blogging community in the first place. I am still writing, of course, just… elsewhere. What’s up with you guys? Are any of the old guard still around? Come on out of the woodwork and say hi and tell me what you’re up to!Īs for me, well, I’d love to return to blogging again but I don’t know if I have anything worth saying (unless you all really want to hear about my Farming Adventures) and I feel like most of my old readers have long since moved on to greener pastures anyway. I am collecting mounts, and playing the goldmaking game for no other reason than I like watching the shiny number in the corner of my backpack rise.Īctually, this post and ten year anniversary day is really good timing because today I managed to cross this little finish line: Granted, I’m… not exactly doing anything. What’s that? Pike still plays… a Beast Master hunter? STOP THE PRESSES.
I took this screenshot a couple of days ago. I actually, uh… if you’d told me this ten years ago I probably would have laughed, but I actually have an active WoW subscription right now. I saw this blog go from being just a personal place for me to store my thoughts to a whopping 1200 subscribers and over 1000 unique daily hits at its peak in 2009, and then as I went on hiatus and WordPress blogs sort of started to die out in favor of various other discussion formats, I saw this blog kind of fall by the wayside, too.Īnd yet. I have seen many, MANY bloggers come and go. Needless to say a LOT has changed in those ten years. Pictured here is the first post I ever made on this blog.
