(Kuiren, I was bored this morning and thought I'd add a little more to this subject, since I like the idea. I hope it is okay that I posted it in your threat, even though you got the stickie and all ^^ - Tenned)
WOW General
Items & Quests Discussion
[Talk about Items and Quests for World of Warcraft here.]
Are you the master of Maths, or just very very knowing when it comes to items in WoW?
Are you always the first to know when new items are introduced to the game?
Do you know what items are the best for what classes with what specs and so on?
- If so, the Items & Quests Discussion is for you. Hop in there immediately and make a guide on how to obtain the best pre-raid gear if you are a newly dinged frost mage for example. Or let ppl know why the stats of exactly this enchant are way better then the enchants normally used. Ofcourse always back your theories up with sources or your own maths.
Also, if you happen to know anything special regarding quests, this is the forum for you. Tell people what quests they should do to go from lvl 45-55 as fast as possible for example, or let folks know how to do different very difficult quests. You could even write a guide on how to get attuned to the daily quests for example. Where to go, and what to do.
(Ofcourse, answering peoples questions, and helping out wherever you can is always appreciated)
--------
PvP & Battlegrounds
[Talk about PvP, strategies and Battlegrounds for World of Warcraft here.]
Are you the master BG leecher?
Do you know the best places to hide?
Are you the legendary flagcarrier of WSG or the only one standing alone facing a whole army of hordes defending in AV, just because you know exactly the right place to own from?
Do you know all the pro tricks and all the classes' disadvantages?
Are you in a high-rated arena team, and willing to share your secrets?
- If so, PvP & Battlegrounds might be the place for you to gain your first +rep. Make a movie for example, showing how to use the environment while PvPing, or write a guide on how to beat different classes being a particular class. Tell the community how they should work with their premades to cut through the enemy in BGs like they were hot butter!
(Ofcourse, answering peoples questions, and helping out wherever you can is always appreciated)
--------
Instances & Raiding
[Discuss Instances & Raiding in World of Warcraft here.]
Have you had BT on farm for a couple of months now?
Have you never sat food in a BG, but istead focused on becomming all-knowing-and-high-skilled in endgame raid instances?
Do you know the strategies for every single boss out there or are you just in knowledge of some cool stuff regarding instances or raiding?
- If so, the Instances & Raiding forum might be your key to unlock the leecher status. Post guides on how to gain small advantages in bossfights. Show a video of your guild 10manning maggy, or write a guide (maybe with pictures or a movie) on how to power farm an instance with your friends, how to avoid several annoying trashmobs or how to boost your raid DMG being a rogue i.e. - You could also teach others how to run a raid, setup groups and handle strategies in different instances.
(Ofcourse, answering peoples questions, and helping out wherever you can is always appreciated)
--------
UI & Macro Discussions
[Talk about User Interface upgrades and World of Warcraft Macros here.]
Have you single handed put together a master piece of an UI?
Do you browse the UI sites everyday, and are you always the first person to know when a new awesome looking ui is being released?
Are you pro at making macros?
do you simply just know how to get your DPS or healing going skyhigh using a specific macro?
Or do you know how to make your gaming experience better with UIs?
- If so, this might where your first repcookie is to be eaten. Post a guide on how to setup a nice UI, how to make costum art or how to get yourself a bling bling UI in general. Maybe write a guide on how to optimize your UI for raiding or PvPing. Also, you could teach people the art of making macros or the art of using them right. Tell people how to use macros to boost their DPS, to handle their crowd control properly or how to keep that annoying healer mana drained the whole time while you are fighting his warrior friend.
(Ofcourse, answering peoples questions, and helping out wherever you can is always appreciated)
--------
Talent Specs
[Discuss talent specs for all World of Warcraft classes here.]
Are you the master of talents?
Do you know exactly what talents are a vaste of points?
Do you know exactly what specs beat up what specs?
Do you know the stat req. for different specs, or the spec req. for diffirent instances or BG/Arenas?
- If so, this might be the place for you to drop those pants with leecher written all over them and get the party started. You could post a guide on what specs different classes should use in Mount Hyjal, or why marksman is the best arena spec. Point out different specs, show people your maths and let them know about that extra 0,4% of dmg you've found. - This forum is hard to get rep in, people are very, very hard to deal with in here because everyone think they know their class inside out. So be prepared to back up your theories with proofs and/or maths.
(Ofcourse, answering peoples questions, and helping out wherever you can is always appreciated)
