Yeah, I’ve got one.
I know there are a lot of people out there who think that getting a Celestial Steed is “selling out” or “giving Blizzard money” or “buying useless pixels.” News Flash: Every month that you pay your $15 subscription, you’re “buying useless pixels.” Will those pixels you get to play with every month for $15 get you a better job? A raise? A new girlfriend/boyfriend? Possibly… but probably not. In essence you’re paying for fun.

Hello, my name is Cassieo, and I'll be your tank today.
Let me start out by saying that this is my first blog, so forgive me if I end up being a bit of a blog-newbie. I am a quick learner however, so be prepared for some aesthetic changes in the days to come.
Though I am a total blog-newbie, I am no stranger to tanking. I am a guild leader, raid leader, and one of our guild’s main tanks. Right now my main is a protection paladin, but I’m leveling a warrior, druid, and soon a DK. It is my goal to learn all aspects of tanking, including the class differences, and bring you my opinion on the topics of the day.
The first thing I want to… no… NEED to address is PUG tanking.
There are all of these freaking bastards out there in the tanking community who somehow feel it is their sacred birthright to act like jerks. They chain pull faster than the healer-in-blues is able to keep up with. They snob any new 80 who’s just trying to gear up. They demand specific holiday drops. They demand the Frozen Orb at the end as payment for their services. They “Need” on any item that drop that they can because it’s their “tip” for tanking. What the hell?!
