    It doesnt say world first, it says the first one onthe Molten Core Server in China. 190,000 gold is a little too much tbh

    No, world first are given to Ezra Chatterton because of some kind of illness

    The item is BoP. This guild allows players to *buy* raid drops? That's very weak.

    Yea 190kg wow thats alot. An the worlds first ever was to Ezra, for have some vinarial disease. An as his last wish he wanted to go to the World of Warcraft dev. place to see it all. An they welcomed him warmly and showed him around and also gave him a GMs account. Casue there at the place they gave him a lvl 70 tauren hunter with full glad and t6 and everything he could ever want. Also that mount. An they also made him a Gm for the time being so he ran every instance in the game soloed them all. They made him like lvl 9 bajilion it was cool. I saw video clips. But yea wow 190k thats alot.

    Also, they created a quest for him in the starting area for Taurens. You have to helps a guy feed his dog.

    He had a form of life-threatening cancer, not "some vinarial disease", you jackass.

    It was a from the Make a Wish Foundation you dumbasses.

    The kid had cancer and his wish was to have that mount.

    Smity28 set fail for fail with this post:

    "An the worlds first ever was to Ezra, for have some vinarial disease."

    Do you even know what a venerial disease, moron? It's a Sexually transmitted disease. He's a little kid! He has a brain tumour!

    .....

    "An as his last wish he wanted to go to the World of Warcraft dev. place to see it all. An they welcomed him warmly and showed him around and also gave him a GMs account.

    Not exactly a 'last wish'. It was a part of the Make-a-Wish Foundation. He had a 64 Tauren Hunter already, and they finished his leveling process, gave him the gear and the mount. Please know the subject matter? Thanks.

    190,000 gold for that mount. I don't care if it's china... that's just insane. Which means dude was being brought along for Kael kills... which means dude has probably gotten a free Hyjal attune.

    Lucky ***!

    ClanMeliadon: If you don't have any constructive comments, then i would say keep it for your self, not every 1 is English / Us or for that matter good at English.

    People like you are the reason many people feel bad about them self, Smity28 might bee graphic designer as i am. And do you then think cause i paint / 3D model better then most people i then run around and tell people they sux, and tell them to learn paint / model and stuff?
    No cause you just DON'T do that, well kids might do that, so i gues that makes you a little boy, that only have 1 thing your good at, so you just have to tell those that is not as good as you, to go learn it so that you can feel better right ? We cant bee good at everything, some are good at English (even not sure you are, with that caps and few words you use.

    And my final word Grow up ClanMeliadon, your among adults so if your not one, then try at least to act like one, and if your an adult, then man you sure lack on people skills!!

    I have seen one on Stormscale (EU), on the alliance, that had that mount, before Christmas.
    I think he is from Glamour or Core, cant remember.

    And I wouldnt pay 190.000 gold for a mount

  • Tue, Jan 1 2008 1:11 PM ()

    MartinL, I agree that sometimes it's better to just keep certain opinions to one's self, but you're comparing apples and oranges. If I try my hand at graphic design and then post what I've created and it sucks, then people ought to say it sucks (and I assure you, it would :) )

    Likewise, if someone posts in English, and their English sucks, it's ok to say that, too, if it's true. It might not be constructive, but that's a different debate.

    Bad grammar is caused by a lack of knowledge regarding a language, but with sites like dictionary.com available, bad spelling is just laziness and/or complete apathy. And if a person is apathetic about their own ideas, why should anyone else care about them?
