Thanks L4L, but it turned out to be a faulty addon, lol
The culprit was Datastore_Quests

Actually yesterday I went through all 3 continents for the Achievement on Trick & Treat + I also got the 5 Daily Quests in 5 days in a row
At the same time I discovered all of Outland and earned that one too, so that was cool, but time consuming, lol.

Did anyone here visit Blizzcon?

I'm glad you got that quest thing sorted out! I think they finally fixed the quest where a person would dc when they click on the pumpkin in Scarlet Monestary. It never happened to me, but one fellow had two toons locked out that he didn't get back for a day or so when they rebooted the servers.

Do any of you use Gearscore? It hasn't been working right since the patch, even though they updated it. Does anyone know of another mod that works for showing gear?

I've never been to Blizzcon. If it were ever close to me I'd consider it, just to see what it's all about.

I'm using GearScore with no problems at all.
I have other issues, but that one is fine.
Andrea

We've had lots of quirky things happening, and I think that will continue until after they are through pushing all the little patches.

The pumpkin is still freezing us.

I'd go to Blizzcon in a second if I could...take all the kids and spouses too. Getting the tickets would be the biggest problem. They said at Blizzcon that this year's tickets (20,000) sold out in 2 seconds! We watched the video stream and it was awesome!

The problem I'm having with gear score, is that when I click on other people I don't always get their gearscore, experience, etc, even if we are on the same server. It is hit or miss it seems. I dunno, maybe it's lag.

We've had some really weird lag on our server at time. Sometimes the sound of what you are doing comes many seconds after you do it! It happens mainly in Dalaran, which lag is bad, but also in SW.

And my soundcard does not like Oculus! I'll get a staticy sound from the time I enter until I leave. I finally just started turning my speakers off altogether while in there.

@JeanK

If you have other addons, try disabling all but GearScore, then see if it still does it.
If not, then you can be sure it's one of the other addons, that breaks it.

JeanK, I've always had that problem with Gearscore...even before the patch.

Hi guys, do we have any Healers?

Well, L4L, I am working on a Pally but not the healing spec, and a Druid, but she is combat/feral specced. they can both rez but I get too involved in fighting to pay attention to keeping everyone healed. Of course....that could all change with Cata. We shall see.
Andrea

Well, they changed the battle rez....now it's a 30 minute CD...I thought 10 minutes was bad. :bat:

Does anyone know how to resize the mini world map?
For some of my alts, it's way too big

And another question - has anyone here Pre-Ordered the Digital download for Cata?
It won't allow me

Missilo, no help from me I'm afraid. I've clicked the button to allow you to move the mini map, but that has never worked. Unless you are talking about the little arrow in the right hand corner of the map???

I've only pre-ordered the CE hard copies. Is is releasing in Europe at the same time it releases in the US? Perhaps that is the reason you can't order?

I think Andrea has pre-ordered and I'm sure she'll stop in...so she might have an answer for you.

My task today is to see if I can get by without using Bartender. Every since the patch dropped, I've had loading screens in excess of 3 minutes and lots of DC's. Son recommended not using add-ons till Feb 2011 as in his experience with Lich King was that it took awhile before the expansion played nicely with all the adds....even when they were updated.

Try deleting the Cache, WTF folder - there's TONS of post on the Blizzard forums about long loading times etc. since the patch.

As for the Pre-Order - it's not the EU release I'm interested in, since I play on a US server
I think it has something to do with the cata pre-order not allowing international cards, where the billing address doesn't match the account address.
Sucks big time, since it works for everything else on blizzard

Thanks Misslilo, I will. A 3 minute reload time is Not a good thing when one DC's in a dungeon.

I saw a post at Joystiq this morning reporting folks getting an error message when trying to pre-order Cata downloads. So maybe give it a day or so and try again?

Hi L4L and MissLilo!

Yes I pre-ordered the digital Cata download. I worked properly for me, thank goodness, and did update when I signed in the next day. It was a loooonnnngggg download.
I had noticed 2 bugs that had to do with my Herbalism profession not letting me gather herbs, and another on my Druid being stuck in an instance after it ended if I was shape shifted. It would say I was dead, and wouldn't let me leave until I went back to normal form.
I think they fixed those yesterday.
Got my gaming laptop back better than new! I missed my Asus RoG machine so much! It needed a new keyboard. I broke the spacebar jumping all over WoW! LOL!
