Only revealing as much as needed

I haven't had the opportunity to play much this week. So I really don't have any WoW information to comment on.

I have had so much going on this week or month for that matter. That it's very hard for me to focus on just one thing. Not only am I going to college but I have deal with personal stuff as well. To my home life school is easy. To be honest school can sometimes be a nice escape. I don't like to broadcast my problems online because I don't need that kind of attention. Unfortunately I have come to a time in my life that I need or have had to make some hard decisions that effect everyone in my life. I can say that with all the issues I am having. I at least have the support from those I need it from. I am thankful for my parents and their support in my decisions. I also now have to worry about my kids. Because they live near Virginia Beach and the current hurricane conditions.

I know that I didn't reveal much and am leaving anyone reading this at a guessing game. But again I don't like to post to much personal information about my self online. I only chose this subject because it is so heavily on my mind and focusing on other thoughts are almost impossible at this time.

For a positive note; I have enrolled into my session 3 classes and for as I can tell, I am doing pretty well so far.

Getting started with reputation at level 90

Ann Stickney wrote an awesome article about reputation after getting level 90. Check out the article at  http://wow.joystiq.com/2012/10/16/getting-started-with-reputation-at-level-90/

I wanted to share this link because of all the confusion with all the new dailies in Mists of Pandaria(MOP). I had gotten overwhelmed with all the dailies in MOP. So I did a search to see what would be the best strategy to attack them. First of all I didn't realize all the reputations that was added to MOP. So this article definitely helped me out. I, like everyone else can't stand dallies. I also understand how important they are to get some of the gear or mounts available with the new expansion. I hope anyone that reads this gets the answers I have. Good luck and God speed, WoW nerds.

Account issues

          I have been having some issues with my account with the new expansion. I find my self getting stuck when I get close to Dread Wastes. Not only do I get froze in my game but my computer also freezes up and then I am forced to hard shut off my computer. I then could not retrieve my character and had to get on my old computer to get him out of the area. I submitted a ticket to Blizzard and after two days they finally responded. I was told to delete my Cache, WTF, and Interface folders. I did this and still am having the same problems. I have replied to them that I was still having the same problem and was told that I need to make sure that my graphics card was up to date. I again replied to them need explanation on how to do so. I don't consider myself computer illiterate but there are programs that I don't understand. I am now awaiting for instructions on how to do so. Hopefully someone reading this will be able to help me. I didn't purchase this expensive gaming computer to have such problems. For some reason I can't get my Java to work as well. Please oh please someone help me. Also for any readers, post some cool screen shots. I always enjoy to see what others are into.

Just one of my thoughts

Not WoW related

         Yesterday my oldest son became became 13 years old. I don't feel old myself but I am amazed how fast time goes as a parent compared to when I wasn't. I never seem to have the time needed everyday to accomplish what needs done, were when I was single, I seemed to be able to waste time all day. I mean I could go party and chase girls till 3 in the morning and do it all over again, day in and day out. Now I am chasing kids and a paycheck to provide for them.
          I can remember when my son was born, he was suppose to be a girl, according to the doctor but of course came out as a fat headed 10 pound baby boy. He was born two weeks after his due date and had to be induced. His mother went through 29 hours of labor before they determined that they would have to deliver by sea section.
          I always teased his mom that he would be a boy and when he came out, even though we were told that he was suppose to be a girl, I never believed it and was the first thing I looked for. I couldn't believe how big he was, 10 lbs and 1 oz. I was the first to hold him and I will never forget that day. I will always cherish those moments with both my little boys, cause they aren't so little anymore and sometimes all I can do is remember how it was.

Get exalted with the Lorewalkers in an hour or less

by Michael Sacco Oct 5th 2012 at 3:00PM

When I first walked into Lorewalker Cho's sanctum at 90, I peered around for Lorewalkers daily quests and saw that they all seemed to involve archaeology in some way. My DK did not have archaeology up to any meaningful skill level. I sighed deeply at the cheap, neat-looking Disc of the Red Flying Cloud and walked away, until I heard from a little bird that getting Lorewalker rep was a lot easier than I thought.

All you really need to do to get exalted with the Lorewalkers is read each of the lore objects located throughout Pandaria; you can see a list of them (like The Seven Burdens of Shaohao) in your Exploration Achievements tab, under Pandaria. When you read all of the objects for each "story," you get an item to bring to Lorewalker Cho, who presents you with a sort of play about the story you collected, and you get a ton of reputation (thousands).

The best part? You can collect them all in an hour or less with 310 flying and a map to help you out.

The above map from BlizzPlanet shows you a route you can take starting right from Cho's home in Vale of Eternal Blossoms, taking you all across Pandaria to grab every lore object. The yellow stars are lore objects; the red stars are optional achievements, like Restore Balance and Legend of the Brewfathers. If you want to know where a specific one is and have an addon that shows you coordinates on your map, all of the objects are listed (per zone) below.

When you've collected them all, stop by a mailbox, collect all of the quest items, and turn them in to Lorewalker Cho. Keep in mind that you can only turn in one every five minutes or so, as Cho will begin telling you the story you returned to him; if you absolutely can't wait, just log out when he starts telling the story and immediately log back in. After turning in 8 of the 9 stories, you should be exalted.

Enjoy your flying cloud disc thing! Nimbussss!

        Last night I built these rare maps, from locations off of others video's on YouTube (Video below). I am only an 86 so far so I was only able to explore Jade Forest and Valley of Four Winds. I can confirm that most of them I have found and where exactly at the locations that are on my maps. Of course I didn't find them all because of re-spawn times and I was not willing to sit around and wait for them to spawn.
        If anyone finds them in a different spot please let me know so I can update them. Also if you are wondering what is in the bags that the rares drop, they are Pandarian elements, gold and sometimes additional gear. Happy Hunting all
