Something new each week, but with a memory of the past.
Schwick's Weekly Rambling
This week I felt like introducing something new. So I came with "Blizz talks". Basically it's about discussions Blizzard sometimes hold with the forum community. Feel free to comment about it. Hope you like it!
Also "Burning Crusade you say?" will return each week now (depending if Burning Crusade info gets released).
If you got ideas, complains, remarks, useful links etc.. send them towards schwickster@gmail.com or I'm sometimes online on the following IRC channel "uk.quakenet.org #wow" (registered is required).
Greetings,
Schwick (Shadowsong)
What -- Why -- When
Blizzard has always been a fan of art work from fans. That's why they did an interview with one of the fan artist that does art work. This week they interviewed Romain de Santi.

A new World of Warcraft game guide is coming soon. This time it's a guide about instances. The guide contains things like dungeons, quests evolving around and in dungeons, mobs and of course bosses.

Been complaining much about the Europe community not getting involved in WOW community stuff? Well then rejoice for you. Exclusive for WOW Europe, Blizzard wants your ideas about events ingame and also events in real life (revolving around Warcraft).

Always tweaking your Talent spec. online? Then good news for you. Blizzard's website team made a better layout to make the online Talent spec. Instead of having different pages for different Talent trees, you now have all 3 Talent trees beside each other. To see it with your own eyes, go to: http://www.wow-europe.com/en/info/basics/talents/newlayout/druid/talents.html (scroll down for your own class) or http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classes/talent-index/
Blizzard USA banned a whopping 30.000 account!!! And that's only the month May. The total sum of gold all accounts combined had, was 30 million gold. I say good going Blizzard (and community for reporting) and shame on you for being banned!
