Make Money Playing WoW Pt. 1

If you aren’t already you’re missing out on a great opportunity. I can remember not even two months after playing WoW I was ready to start making cash. Today World of Warcraft brings me nearly $300 a week. How is this possible? Well the quickest way to generate a steady income is to sell gold. Forget about power leveling, honor farming, or any other methods you can think of.

There is only one good way to make money fast in WoW. This is by farming gold. Unfortunately one of the many allures of power leveling other peoples characters and honor farming is that fact that you don’t need a high level character or even an account to get started. You just need to be a full time gamer.

I tried these methods long ago and while they can provide a spike of income every now and then the end result was quite weak. Gold farming just dominates every aspect of making money in WoW.

Here is a general guide to get you started. But please remember that in order make money you need to spend money. In World of Warcraft different scenarios arise where this may no be the case but for the purpose of this guide it is relevant. Also the following is going to contain some very "blackhat" methods. In other words these methods will give you the greatest RIO (Return On Investment) for the money spend but at the same time can be potentially deadly to your account if you are not careful!

What you need:
A) A Computer with broadband internet
B) A World of Warcraft Account
C) MMO Glider

Stick around for Part 2 and on coming daily.

WoW Armory - Character Data Awaiting Refresh

If you’ve tried to view an armory profile recently you’ve probably seen the message below.

“It seems like the character you are trying to view is not currently available on the Armory. Since the Armory data is periodically updated, this character needs to have been active recently for detailed character data to show up. Character profiles that have been updated recently may display this message as a result of high server load.”

The WoW Armory has been in operation for months and is still in ‘beta’. Recently there have been many complaints about the slowdowns with the Armory and how memory intensive it is. I have experienced Firefox crashes more then once while browsing the WoW armory (with 4GB of ram in my computer). Blizzard needs to need spend some time fixing these issues which seem to be recurring very often.

Racism on the WoW forums

While browsing the WoW forums today I stumbled upon a thread which caught my eye. Soon after reading it I knew a mod was going to press the delete button fast but not before hundreds or thousands of people saw it. No doubt there were people who felt immediately angry. The post is rather offensive and anyone who may be offended please skip the following section.

“Chocolate Faces vs Other Races:

Black people…. We’ve all been mugged by them at some point in our lives. What can you do when one is about to jump you and steal your goods? I’m here to give you tips to help you survive in this black-eat-white world.

The black brain is composed of left and right hemispheres, similar to our own; only instead of pink, it’s blue due to lack of oxygen, or yellow/green due to bile being improperly produced in the cranial area. The right side of their brain is their stereotypical side that focuses on their primary goals in life, including fried chicken, watermelon, and get-rich-quick law suits. The left side is their primitive monkey side. Their bodies have adapted to suit the left side of the brain. Their big banana-peeling hands can easily capture or crush their victims, and their big lips can be used as a flotation device to subdue you if you are in water. If you are in an area filled with trees, you have to keep a sharp eye out for blacks that will use vines to swing down and mug you from the air. If you are at the zoo, they may assault you from atop their tiger or elephant mount, in which case you need to have meat cutlets or peanuts prepared to distract the animal. So no matter where you are, you have to always keep your guard up and listen to the sound of drum beats and clicking noises when they are trying to sneak up on you.

If you wear a standard ghost outfit (made of white sheets), you can repel individual blacks. But they usually roam around in packs of 10 or greater, so you have to be prepared. Always keep some KFC or Church’s Extra-Crispy Chicken handy to throw into the middle of the black pack if they should turn their attention towards you. Watermelons are too big to be carried around, but a watermelon-flavored hard candy works in a pinch for smaller groups. The special food should cause enough commotion and buy you enough time to escape without being mugged. If you should ever be cornered by a black, lie on the ground and try to pass yourself off as a dying homeless man. This way you might get away with them only stealing the clothes off your back.

Be warned that some have evolved to the point that they can almost perfectly mimic a white man. We’ve all seen the chameleon effects of Michael Jackson, a White Chocolate Face who has grown from a poor black boy to a rich white man; however, his black brain caused a chemical imbalance with his white skin, turning him into a loopy malformed pedophíle. Bryant Gumble is an example of a “missing link” between the white man and the black species; he seems innocent enough, but is he really? Like any of them, neither of these men can be trusted.

Remember, Black people are responsible for over 80% of the account thefts in WoW–not the asians. Good luck out there. And don’t get mugged.”

It’s hard to believe that even in 2008 now there are still people out there willing to post obscenities like these on public forums.
