Heya guys!!  So it’s time for me to sit down and start doing some heavy thinking on where my site is going.  I’ve had my down time, and I’ve pulled back some to help alleviate with burnout.  But now it’s time to move forward.  Adding extra pages is the likely first step, though it may not be visible to you guys off the bat.  Thinking about putting together several new pages.  Expanding a new page just for Specs, and breaking them down for you guys.  Things like PvE raiding, PvP, leveling, Tanking, and more.  I want to go back and update my Macros as well and get that on a prominent page I’m thinking.  I need to finish up BISI, but I’ve got 2 posts coming this week for a fact on that one.  I’ve also been putting in some serious consideration for really putting up a forum on my domain for a lot of you readers.  But that one is a bit more of a “down the road”.

I’ve also decided to add some Ads to my site finally in the near future, and they will be likely coming from Google Adsense (sp?).  I’ve been told my several reliable people that this is the way to go.  I’m not savvy with this stuff though, so if there are issues you’ll have to bear with me.  What do I mean?  Gold spammers.  I am going to be looking into how to block these guys.  But please remember, even Blizzard got bamboozled when they added ads to their Site.  Sometimes those sneaky lil buggers weazle their way in.  If they do, notify me if I miss it, and I’ll take care of the problem.

See!?!?  LOL, this still cracks me up!!  Even Blizzard can miss it, and they HATE gold spammers!! 

I’d like this site to also be a valuable resource to you guys.  Which means that I need some of the more relevant and valuable posts should be prominent to any reader coming here.  So in the next 1-2 months I will be working on making that happen.  Also I will be looking into doing some actual site construction and revamping.  This means I will be outsourcing, heh.  I’ve got a rl friend I will be going to first, but I may be limited there.  I very, very, very MUCH like the format and look of my site.  But it was a premade template, so it’s got a lot of inherent restrictions built into it limiting what can be done.  And my friend is not Word Press savy (the software I use for blogging), so I’m not sure how much he can get done.

Also, it’s going to take some serious time and effort on his part, so it will be waiting until after I get some ads up.  Quite frankly, he’s done a lot to help me with this site already.  And without an incentive (aka free food and/or some cash flow) there is only so much more he is going to actually want to do for me.  Who wants to go help someone else make a website they care nothing for, for free?  Heh.  So I’ll try to use some newfound web income to help a brother out.

Also, I am going to have something up about my friend’s daughter soon.  The daughter’s name is Eleanor.  I could have the spelling off…not sure.  I will be holding a raffle for prizes, and be doing a charity donation for her.  If you missed it, she has cancer and is not even in kindergarten yet.  Her best case scenario in an ideal world is only a 40% chance of survival.  Can you imagine that?  I get upset every time I think about it.

I’m waiting on some finalized details, but basically I am having her mom set up a new savings account in her daughter’s name and a new paypal account.  I’ll be hosting the details up on my site, and I’ll be giving you the details of their blog about her daughter’s condition, which her father first created.  Anyone can donate any amount they wish, but I will likely be offering the raffle to anyone who donates a certain minimum amount of $, somewhere between $15-$25.  I will put up 10k of my own gold as the prize, and then likely double it if we get a certain minimum total.  Say somewhere in the range of $2k to $10k total cash donations.  So it could be a raffle for as much as 20k in game WoW gold.  I will simply pay the rl cash to transfer characters to the winner’s server and give them the gold.  Some things are still in the air, but that is the current idea.

So, we’ve got a lot coming down the pipe.  And it will not be an overnight process.  Everything will likely take between 1-3 months to get finished.  And for those more interested in the here and now.

OMFG WHAT ABOUT DUAL WIELD!?!?!?

I will try to give you guys preliminary information about DW specs while I am in the testing phase.  But I need you guys to realize something.  There are about 4 prevalent DW specs out there at the moment, and with sometimes more than one rotation per spec.  This will not be a simple “Wham, Bam, Thank you mam!!” deal.  Expect 2 weeks minimum for a hardcore polished post detailing everything for you.  That being said though, I will try to get some preliminary posts up with some of the basics.

That all being said, it’s time for me to get some stuff done.  I have not kept up with DW research, so I’ve got so much backlogged info to go through, it’ll probably take me 2 days of spending a few hours reading through everything just to get caught up.  That’s not even including testing, playing, or alternative research methods.

E-mails and Comments

I have not had the time to deal with these, but I am horribly overdue on making this happen.  Give me some time, I promise I will.
