Before you ask the title of today’s quickie is a play on what a pain. Why? Well as I’m laboring to type these words for you I’m sitting on at a plastic picnic table which is filling in for Penske’s customer lounge in lieu of the real thing being utilized for a meeting. Not terrible [...]

My First Podcast Appearance
Posted in Meta, World of Warcraft, tagged 1st podcast appearance, podcast noob, reminscing on March 22, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Considering the meta nature of my WoW-related entries recently I decided that I would once again get meta on all of you. I’ve come a long ways from my first days of owning an iPod Touch and discovering the joys of podcasts, from listener to contributor and now co-host, so I decided to take a [...]
Burnout Lag
Posted in Meta, World of Warcraft, tagged burnout, gaming approach, mmo fatigue on March 21, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
It’s almost as if everywhere you turn you run into WoW players that either on the verge of burning out or have burnt out and moved on. I’m battling with my own “burnout” but we all know that that is an annual occurrence for me. I’ll be back, we all know that, but I have to [...]
Blogging on the Go

I’ve always been limited to updating my blog from the comfort of my home, but with the recent acquisition of a true smart phone (HTC Evo 4) I now have the ability to blog on the go. I’m not quite certain if this will actually increase the frequency of my posts (dealing with the virtual [...]
What’s in a Name?

I don’t think I’ve ever blogged about this, so I figured now is as good of a time as any to explain my online namesake: Nevik. I’ve been meaning to ask that! How fortuitous of you to read my mind! I know, I’m special like that but let’s get back on topic. However, before I [...]
Crossroads

It’s no surprise that it’s been almost a month since my last update on the blog. It’s not for a lack of trying, but every single time that I’ve sat down to write something I’ve immediately lost my motivation. I’ll get this great idea for my blog, then just as I’m about to start typing [...]
Blogging

If you’ve been following my blog over the past six years, (6th anniversary on May 25th) you’ll know that it hasn’t been something that I’ve made a priority in my life. It started off as a Final Fantasy XI livejournal and slowly evolved into covering almost every aspect of my life. I’ve tried to keep [...]
Drive
Posted in Meta, World of Warcraft, tagged community, Drive, progression on January 5, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
I’m going to get a little meta on everyone, so please bear with me. What drives us to play World of Warcraft? The people? The challenge? The mechanics? The atmosphere? The loot? I’ve been playing WoW since day 3 pretty consistently for the past 5 years. There have been multiple breaks from WoW, with a [...]
Value
Posted in Meta, World of Warcraft, tagged charity, darth kotex, fear, microtransactions, pet store, value on November 7, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
There are many varied opinions on Blizzard’s recently released pet store, some happy, some angry, but mostly indifferent. As for me, I was initially upbeat on the idea until I saw the price point for the pets. $10 is a substantial amount of money for something that is purely for vanity and I cannot justify [...]
Metamorphosis
Posted in Meta, tagged livejournal, Meta, motivations, purpose, reflection, wordpress on October 31, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
As so many times before my blog went through another hiatus, but this time it has come out on the other end on a completely different blogging service. Farewell LiveJournal, you’ve served me well, but this mistress named WordPress is better … in every single possible way. From widgets to easily accessible stat tracking WordPress [...]
