Kretol Earthshaker


Throm'ka!  I am an obvious orc fan, and I have decided that I will try to create yet another blog site!  I'm still not clear what exactly I will normally post here, but I suppose if the muse hits me, I will post something up.

I've been playing World of Warcraft since the game went live, and a bit before that, during beta.  Although I admit that I've canceled my account for about a year during Burning Crusade (which is when I started up CotH), I've been back and active since a bit before Wrath of the Lich King was released.  Like most folks, I'm eagerly awaiting Cataclysm!

I'm sure I'll add more to this later!


For those that may be checking here from the CotH community, here are a few tidbits about me:


  • I have little patience for those who don't even bother reading very obvious stickies in the very forums they are guides for, like "Read Me First!" or "Information!"
  • If you PM me asking a question that's very obviously answered (such as "What is the introduction template?"), it is very likely I will not respond, hoping that you will find it yourself.  I don't intend to be an ass, but I do want folks to be able to not be afraid to look around a little bit.
  • Orcs are the best race, period. There can be no legitimate counter to this statement. Sorry!
  • I am quite open to constructive feedback if you feel you cannot speak to someone else.  Basically, "do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
  • I will not get angry if you wish to criticize the community. However, you'd better have a constructive solution in mind for whatever aspect you may be criticizing.
  • If you feel I am being unfair with something, feel free to send me a rational PM. However, first try and see things from my perspective (or what's good for the community as a whole).
